No Suicidal Tendencies Here...

1. I had my teeth fixed... On the 8th, actually...

2. I passed my professional licensing exams for Pharmacy Technician! I found out yesterday...



So, no... I don't have to talked out of jumping off a high-rise building or from a tall bridge, or from renting an airplane to dive out of without a parachute...

This makes me sooo happy!!! The remainder of what I have to do to be regulated will be a breeze compared to this waiting around stuff... And it will also be done sometime in the fall... I am taking a vacation from education for a good 4 months...

Newfoundland, here I come! In July, baby! It's road-trip season!!!

Weekend Plans...

Not going anywhere... Not doing any studying... I am pulling out my stitching and getting in some good quality time with my needle... I suddenly find myself without work this weekend, due to a switched shift... So, from Friday at around 5pm until Sunday evening expect for me to be peeking at a chart and highlighting and swearing at sparkly thread... I am having my own personal stitch-a-long dammit...

I have gotten some more done on the butterfly montage since I last posted... I'm almost finished the first one, just the pink and sparkly to go... Then to do some greenery and figure out which pretty butterfly to do next...

Fail...

*jumps up and down on school notes*... Evil!!!!!!

No Crafting and All School Makes Alanda Go "Something Something"...

"Go crazy? Don't mind if I do!!!!"

Three weeks into term and already I'm a basketcase... I can't really blame it all on the school... I always was a basketcase; school just combines that with a chronic lack of sleep and a super caffeinated physique... That and constantly listening to "How It's Made" on Discovery while doing homework... Well... You can see how I might not be the most sane person on the planet, right?

And right now they're describing how coffee is made...

I keep planning on doing some crafty goodness... But, I took all (most) of my charts back to Sarnia, where they will collect dust for the next three months... It's amazing how much stash a girl can collect in a place where there's really no good craft stores... I have access to a Wal-Mart and a small craft store in a mall... Neither of which has anything I currently want to stitch...

So, I have two projects here... Dimensions "Bless This Home", Designed by Angela Staehling, and Dimensions "Butterfly Scene", Designed by Lori Turosey...

I'm hoping I can get at least one of these done this term... My fingers are itching...

Oh look... They're showing something about a tornado now...

Apparently Posting Doesn't Happen Around Here...

Been in school... Christmas was great... Will post more this weekend, and then possibly not for another 4 months... :)

Let's Do The Time Warp!!!

I have been lacking in writing... I find when I'm stressed beyond all belief I avoid doing things that other people can see and appreciate... My writing and my stitching being two of those things... Until last Saturday I had not done any stitching on my Brguiling Tiger since the last time I posted... Now I'll remind you all why...

I told my boss my plans for school sometime in early June... I then told her she was not to tell anybody about these plans until July... For some reason, having this a secret just felt right for awhile... July 1st the cat was out of the bag... I am done at my job on the 19th of August... I fly to NL on the 22nd of August... I move into my boarding house room on the 1st of September... I start school on the 9th of September... For the past week, I have been stressed about my school schedule, because for one reason or another I could not get into the classes I need for the Pre-Pharmacy... That has finally been settled to my extreme relief... I have about three weeks of employment left, and yes, that does scare the crap out of me...

Wish me luck...
