Game day.
Here we go. It’s gonna be a wild ride tonight in Vancouver! Let’s see what the final outcome of this little match we call the Stanley Cup Final will turn out.

So many things that are stressing me these coming weeks: an assignment due for Stats, completing my essay by end of this weekend and revising another person’s by Wednesday for HSCI 216, a midterm on Friday for genetics, not to mention two early morning shifts at The Gap on Tuesday and Thursday, and teaching three people on Monday afternoon and Tuesday evening.
But to quote Lauren Cooper:

The Fracture in Our Soul.
“During the Alexandrian plague (third century), Christians risked their lives in caring for the sick, taking a posture of grace that said, ‘I am here for you. I may die, but you will not be alone.’ The church embodied the gospel and the message was not forgotten. “In the 1980s, the AIDS epidemic hit the gay community. Otherwise healthy men were dying and nobody knew why....

I want to go to London. I really do. Actually, I want to do Co-op there. If I can find a way to work for the NHS as part of my work term, that would be fantastic. I think I’ll spend this summer planning out what exactly I want to do in terms of Co-op. I’m absolutely certain I’m going to do a work term next summer, but it would be much more amazing if I could do it abroad in the...

My thoughts on today's occasion...
I’ll admit, I was very excited for the Royal Wedding ever since the engagement announcement back in October, when there was a lot of indifference towards the news. I’ll admit as well that I stayed up for nearly the entire time to watch; I knocked out at 5:15, as I was running on five hours of sleep the previous evening.
Just a few semi-serious thoughts about today:
Call me a staunch...

Observation.
It’s been 16 days – nearly 17 – since I posted something here. I’m really bad with keeping blogs.

Someone Like You
Adele’s totally captivated me with her new album. Especially that last song. It’s so stripped down, but it’s so beautiful and emotional. Just read these lyrics:
I heard that you’re settled down, That you found a girl and you’re married now, I heard that your dreams came true, Guess she gave you things I didn’t give to you, Old friend, why are you so shy?...

WatchI will never forget those 17 days as long as I live. I feel so lucky to live in this city. I got to experience something that very few people get the chance to experience.
Tentative Schedule
So, this is how I’ve decided how it’s gonna be planned out for the next year or so:
This summer, I’m going to mostly complete my lower division courses for my intended program. I will likely declare my major either at the end of summer or in the fall.
This fall, I’ll finish 95% of my LD courses. I’ll also attempt one or two UD courses. I’ll also be applying...
Day 07 - Favorite Female
See Day 2.
Day 06 - Favorite Rachel Moment
Rachel has a lot of really dumb moments, but I think my favourite would have to be the “Amanda-A Man. Duh” moment in “The One With Chandler and Monica’s Wedding”.
Props to fuckyeahfriends for the picture, just so I don’t get in trouble or anything.
Day 05 - Favorite Couple
As much as I love Chandler and Monica, they’re actually a close second to Ross and Rachel. Whenever they got together it was so cute and mushy, but it was so sad when they broke up (We were on a break! :D). You could totally sense as the series proceeded that the feelings were still there between these two (despite a drunken marriage and a drunken conception), but the series finale finished...
Day 04- Favorite Monica Moment
Anything with Fat Monica makes me laugh. This one tops the cake, though:
