Today has been a wonderful day! I woke up feeling confident about ny upcoming misterm later that day, then while I was getting ready to go Jody called me. Apologized for taking so long to get back to me, asked me if I knew were the kiok was, "sure, it's here with me". He then asked me if I wanted to do the kisok again. I said sure, told him to check out Zellers at the Fredericton mall (cause it would be super convenient for me) and he said he would get back to me by this Monday. Woohoo!! Ah money...how wonderful it will be to have you again........Then I went to school, got my coffee at Tim Hortons, which was exceptionally great, went to my society and ecology midterm, and I think I did very well. I was very well prepared, there was one chart that I was not expecially confident with, but I think I winged it well enough. Tonight, Sam and I were going to go to a movie after he got off work at 9pm, we postponed date night so I could study, but when I got home I seen on the marker board a note saying he would be working until 10pm, so the movie is a bust, maybe we'll rent one. I also got my book from the library on kingston penitentiary, it came in early. I really like my professor for corrections. Some people say that she is hard to get along with, but she has been very helpful to me. I spent three hours on the library website searching for stuff that would help me, got frustrated and wrote her an email asking her if she had any suggestions about how to search better, maybe different keywords to search. She wrote me back the next day, and gave me some article names (I still had to go get them myself, but still) , she even offered to bring me some stuff that would help. That's the one that I had the meeting with after I didn't do as well as I had hoped on my midterm. I don't have anything to do tonight, I'm taking alittle break. I've been studying, and writing papers so much lately, I'm just going to do nothing tonight. My modern theory professor is giving us our review for the 2nd midterm tomorrow, so I'll have enought to do tomorrow and over the weekend. I think we will rent a movie tonight, we haven't rented one since Monday, and the new ones come out on Tuesday. I hope all of my readers (the loyal and beautiful people that you are) also had a wonderful day. :)

Ah the elbow incident!! Now that there is an expressed interest in hearing about this, I shall tell you all about the crazy driver and our fall. It was just after dark, when Jackie and I were crossing the street on our way home from Zellers. Then out of NO where!! A crazy SUV of sorts came speeding around the corner, we had just barely made it to the other side of the street when this happened, we were shocked, slipped on the ice (it had gotten quite cold) and fell on our asses, both of us banging our elbows quite severely. It's a day I'll never forget, we came so close to just being hit by this maniac of a driver!! (all of the events just listed, may or may not have happened quite in the manner described, :)
Later after Sam got home we went down to Gill's house to a costume partu that she had invited us to. We had forgotten to wear costumes, but there were some interesting ones, batman, spiderman, the jolly green giant, "the pessimist" and her rival "the optimist" among others, including a couple with a very interesting costumes. I forget what Gill was, not really a costume, but a title of sorts, I called myself the beer drinking hypocrite "costumes suck!". We had alot of fun. It was a packed party, there must have been 50+ people, and their living room and kitchen area aren't much bigger than mine. It's always good to see Gill, she's graduating this year.
I got my Modern sociological theory midterm back, I was very worried, I really didn't know what to expect. I was hoping to pull through with a C+. I was afraid to llook at the test when she handed it to me......and it was a B+!! Woohoo!! I was terribly worried. I also had my communications midterm, which I had been worried about also, it wasn't difficult at all!! He had given us a review sheet and the questions on the midterm were easier than the review sheet. Sam and I went to the regent mall after school to get my ink refilled, turns out it's not completely empty (it says that it is completelyt full, but doesn't print clearly.) I bought another one anyway. It only came to 23$ taxes included. It costs 28.99$ at Staples before tax. This day went very quickly. It's almost supper time. I forgot to pack anything for lunch today, so I had a cookie and a coffee, (I also didn't have any $) Anyway I'm going to go defrost something for supper, Sam is going to make a stir fry, he also made some rasberry puff pastries while I was at school...mmmm......puff pastry......

I got my corrections midterm back the other day. I completely bombed it!! I really just didn't study the right stuff, I went up and talked to the proff afterwards for some suggestions on how to do better on the next one. She was very reassuring...she said she knew that I was a good studentm, who does their reading and comes to class...she said people usually do better on the poster and presentations. I felt better after looking at the class marks, 9 people did worse than me, so at least I wasn't the worst. I should have brought my gym clothes today, I have all this time in between this class and my next one, usually I go work out, but I wasn't feeling partiicularly great last night, so I figured I wouldn't want to work out. By the way, have I mentioned my love for hazelnut vanilla coffee? You all know of my love for coffee, hazelnut vanilla was the coffe that got me hooked in teh first place. I have been ignoring my beloved hazelnut vanilla for some time now, I haven't had any classses in the building with the cafeteria, so I just get Tim Hortons and faair trade coffee. I noticed my coffee card the other day, had some extra time, so I went in and got my hazeknut, as I did today, and I had forgotten just how much I enjoy this type of coffee. Alright...enough ramble, my typing ahs gotten much better, not on this particular key board, but on my one at home (has a wrist rest and is just snazier than the ones at the computer lab.). I went to the library yesterday to find info on kingston penitentiary, there really isn't a hell of a lot. I'll have to try the online journals.oh, yeah...my corrections proff is from Saint John, I noticed she was wearing a UNBSJ sweater when I was talking to her. She still lives there, gets up at 5am, leaves for work around 6am and gets here at around 7am. That's crazy!! I have my communications midterm on monday, Karen and I are getting together after class today to study, I'm meeting Isabelle tomorrow to study for our society and ecology midterm. Then on Sunday I'll study a bit more for communications, my midterms and projects are nicely spaced this semester, one each week instead of one due every other day like last semester. I think he might do alittle bit of a review with us today. I just pushed some button and my whole post disappeared, luckily I recovered it. Anyway I'm going to bust downstairs to my class.....all of you who are reading my posts and not commenting suck!! You all suck....o.k maybe that was alittle harsh, but just comment!! just write"hi Krista" that's all I'm asking for.......comment!! :)

Sam didn't get Monday off. The best that Jim could do (apparently) was to give him all day Sunday off. When I first heard this I said"oh well, Ryan said he would cover for you", so I wasn't to upset, then Sam told me that Ryan had been fired. He does have the day off on Monday though, so we'll go out to a late lunch or something....just to celebrate on our actual anniversary. Since he has Sunday off we're going to so most of our celebrating that day, I don't know what he has planned, ;0) 5 years went by so fast, especially the last 2. I really love him. We went out to Sweetwaters last night with Joe, Ryan ,and some other guy I never got introduced to. Melissa, from the hilltop, has called me and told me they were all going out, but I never even seen her all night. Oh well, I was ladies night, so I didn't have to pay cover, just coat check. The security guys at the door were running scanning things over all the guys, I think to see if they were carrying weapons. Weird...whats the world coming to? Scanning people for weapons. I haven't been out in awhile, I don't know when they started doing that.Oh crap!! Sunday is tomorrow!Whoa! I gotta go get him something for our anniversary. I was at the mall with Karen and Tara yesterday and I checked at the game store to see if the game he had seen last week was still there, but no such luck. It would have been great, cause I knew he wanted it and it was only 15$. Hmmm......what will I get him? Anyway gotta go get him something....maybe I'll check Gamezilla... write later...Happy anniversary to Lisa and Anthony too!! :)

I just wrote my corrections midterm, I think I did alright, but the questions were really random.We were tested on 4 chapters in our text, and she picked the most random things to ask about. At least it was multiple choice, but I think I guessed alittle to often, "well it looks liike a d would go good there...maybe a c here...."Wasn't pretty. But I talked to a girl in my class afterwards and she said that she had to do the same thing. I am having a hell of a time trying to find a part time job that would be worth my time,but I either have to travel to far or only work 4 hour shifts, which is a pain in the ass. If I could get an 8hour and maybe a 10-12 hour shift, I would be fine. I would be able to make enough to cover some of my bills. Anyone know of any places that are hiring? I should have applied at blockbuster when they were hiring, my friend Alicia works there and already said that she would put in a good word for me if I applied, but now they aren't hiring. It's right next door to us, so it would be really convenient. I have my communications class next, I'm going to hand in my paper, it's only 4 pages. The syllabus says that it should be 5-7, but everyone that I've taked to hasn't been able to get over 4 pages. The topics are to narrow. Even though I hated working at the Hilltop, the shifts were good, 6 hour and then 12 1/2. It worked out nicely. I'm going to call Jody and see if he's had any time to figure something out for me, he said that I would be back to work in December, it's now February! I can't get a hold of him though. OH!! I forgot to tell you about my luck this morning! I arrived a school and thought that I had no money, I reached into my pocket.....and pulled out a 5$ bill that I had forgotten about, it went throught the wash, but was ok. I bought myself a coffee and still had money, it was fantastic....made my day a little brighter :) Anyway I think I'll go buy another coffee (with the extra $ i discovered) and head to class.... :0)

I have a midterm on Friday for my Corrections class, but I'm feeling pretty confident. It's 60% multiple choice and 40% short answer. I love multiple choice, you already have a 25% chance of being right, whereas in short answer, if you don't know it....you can't just guess. I'm also feeling confident because I've taken a criminal law ans charter class, an adult courts class, a historical reactions to crime class, and I am currently taking a young offenders class....so really this class is just a bunch of stuff that I already know, there is some new stuff, but I'm familiar with most of it, so it's easier to understand.I'm really gald that I scheduled my classes this way. My second semester classes are alot easier than first semester. My new CRIM proffs are really good. my soc classes are better too. I still don't like my theory class, but 1 out of 5 isn't to bad. I have an essay due Friday as well as a young offender online thing, but I think I'll be alright. Tonight is date night, my turn to pay, we are going to a movie. I'm not sure which one yet, but we'll figure it out. This Monday, Feb 13th, is Mine and Sams 5 year anniversary. I'm very excited!! He asked for it off, but if he's scheduled, Ryan said that he would switch a shift with him, so he can have it off. I wonder what he is going to plan...hmm....hopefully it involves chocolates....I didn't get any for Christmas and I would really like some (I've also hinted to him that I would like some), and our anniversary is the day before Valentines day, so there are lots of chocolates available. Anyway I gotta get to my communications class, write later....:)

Mom and richard came and got Gizmo at 9:30am.I was still in bed. Mom usually takes half the day to come up here. I guess she wanted Rich to drive, so they just came up after he was done work this morning. They only stayed about 20mins. I figured that mom and I would've hung out for a bit, we usually go to chapters/starbucks and hang out for the afternoon. I have an open afternoon now. Nothing to do. Sam works a spit today....he'll be home in about a half an hour. We can go get coffee. Mom and I went over to Pat's this morning so that she could say goodbye to Gizmo, but she was out. She'll be disappointed when i tell her that she already left. Pat really likes her. She knew she had to go but wouldn't let anyone pick up and snapped at Richard and I when we tried to pick her up. This was her longest visit yet...almost 5 weeks. I'll be happy when I graduate and get a steady job, by then Sam and I will figured out where we are going to live and everthing. I'm going to make sure it's a place that allows small dogs. I feel so guilty when she goes home, she really likes it here with me. She'll get used to being back with mom and Rich soon enopugh though. I have today off from school, it's chancellors day (which is a holiday that the school made up to give the proffs and students a break). So I have the whole day with not to much to do...although I really should vacuum.....hmmm...maybe.Sam took me out to the Hiltop Wednesday for dinner, we both had t-bone steaks. Mine was awesome, Timmy can really cook a good steak. Then yesterday was my turn to treat, so we went to see the movie nanny McPhee. It was a cute movie. Made me laugh. There wasn't much to pick from, since we go to the movies alot. Mom gave me my belated birthday presents this morning. She got me a nice birthday mug, some birthday desert plates and a nice braclet, I'm wearing it right now actually. :) I think I'll call Jackie later and see if she wants to go out. Anyway I'll write later....comment...oh BTW Lisa your probably right about the first underworld, Sam seen it and said that I should see it too.
