I got a four year full-tuition scholarship after graduating high school, but I messed up in my first year, so I lost my funding for the second (and then got it back for my third year).
I just found out today it wasn’t for four consecutive years, just four years over all. Which means next year’s tuition is paid in full!
Meaning it may have just gotten easier to justify travelling this summer!

So… New Year’s is upon on us (at least in Canada, in Japan it’s already happened, but sadly I am not there). In less than 12 hours I will be in a whole new year. And what, 4 more to go until the Mayan Prediction of the end of the world?
I’m celebrating tonight by going to the show being put on by a local radio station X 92.9 where Alexisonfire is playing along with Chixdiggit, 10 Second Epic and…someone else (none of which get links, take that shit rock!!!…actually I’ve never heard of any of them, so I don’t know if they are shit rock).
I guess the fourth band is Madcowboys. Doesn’t that sound like fun. If you can’t tell, I’m going to see Alexisonfire. Adam got me into them a while back, but only their newer stuff. I still can’t stand the incessant screaming on their older albums. But I digress.
That is what I am doing for New Years, nothing overly exciting. Dinner and a concert at MacEwan Hall.
I got a job interview too, which is good. It’s on January 2nd, for an on-campus job. I need money for travelling this summer. I’m hoping to convince my mom to let me take her to Scotland (#258 on the list). Hopefully we can do other things, like spending a few nights in a Scottish Castle (#86), or drinking tea in England (#220), or dancing in Stonehenge (#107). So yes, job interview in a few days, so I can pay my rent and save up for travelling this summer! And get like 10398102398 things off my list done!
My mom better let me take her, otherwise she’s getting a lot more than a kick in the ass!
