Two Months Gone Now!

Hey

Two things now! I've been here 2 months now and its 2 months until Christmas now and minus 5 days until i get home another 5 days before that it is my birthday. Feels weird though, spend the last few months of my teenage years in Toronto...Oh well guess I must be somewhere.

So yeah had my normal lecture this morning followed by a meeting with Alex to discuss what to talk about for this presentation I kind of got myself into on 9th November. I have a five minute slot to talk to a bunch of people about my experience or a particular experience since being in Canada. The only problem was both Alex and I spent 90 minutes going on about our own experiences and that was just the tip of the iceberg. So I still have two weeks to work something out. Also it seems like I will be involved with the exchange program a lot more now with being a rep from both the UK and MMU so I will be meeting some students who will be going to Manchester and some who are just considering about going on exchange etc.

Also had a message on my answering machine here from someone from the pub down the road from where I live asking if I am still interested in potential employment. So I will pop in tomorrow after my test in Dougie's Physical Geography lesson tomorrow morning.

So a round up of my second month here. Well I've had my first Thanksgiving, first Toronto Argonauts (CFL) game, which I also scalped tickets for it. Had our first birthdays in the group (Chowny & Kat), developed a passion for ice hockey and the Toronto Maple Leafs, too many drunken moments including on a field trip to Niagara Falls which I will get up on the website asap, pulled more all nighters in the last 3 weeks than in the whole of my life and taken again another 200 photos with both the digital camera and my film camera. I think I will bring home the pictures on my film to be developed as its mega expensive here so i'll do it at home so the Algonquin pictures and up the CN Tower will have to wait until Christmas...sorry guys...

So to some it up things seem to be looking up but don't want to set that in stone.

Anyway I best be getting back to studying for that test.
