Is there a pause button?

University is looming. I am in the process of applying to the OUAC and last night a representative from Carleton called. Everything is coming up so soon and now more than ever I am unsure if Journalism is the direction I want to head. Talking to the girl last night she mentioned how different the writing is from English; it is very straight-forward and direct. I don't know if that is something I can do... I am depending on my Co-Op next semester to show me what to do. But it makes me nervous to apply NOW for a program I might not want to be in.

I also had my Grad pictures taken today and as the photographer placed the cap upon my head I began trembling. The tears just came and I had to fight them back, astonished at myself. Afterwards, I went into Ms. Haughan's classroom and when I showed her my pictures, she began to cry. I couldn't help myself then. I stayed after school to talk to her too, and missed my bus, but she was kind enough to drive me home.

I am just overwhelmed by the applications and fees and other costs that are piling up at a break-neck speed.

Thankful.

I have neglected writing on her for what seems like forever... In defense, a lot had been going on. Herb came home on Saturday (and everything is going fine!) and before that I spent the week going to school then heading straight to the hospital. So, all in all, it was quite busy, and will be busy for the next few weeks. This Thanksgiving, I am extremely thankful for the good health of my parents. Hopefully, there will be no more visits to the hospital in regards to my mum and dad.
