Things are so busy getting ready for weddings! :) But Pamela and I are doing o.k. we have our Photographer, reception, ceremony, caterers, honeymoon all booked. We're almost done the invitations and have our registry finished. We're feeling pretty good!

Aside from that I am just going a little bit insane with school, I just finished a paper for Philosophy of Mind in which I detailed how our language pre-disposes us towards Substance Dualism theory. Interesting and I enjoyed writing the paper, but it took a lot of time. I've got an insane packaging assignment due on tuesday for my New Media class, and two midterms next week. It just never seems like it is going to stop! But then I remember there is just 8 weeks left of school, which menas 16 school days for me and I'm all done which is great.

Speaking of being all done at this point it looks like I am not going to be going back to school next year. I think that Pamela and I are going to be taking the first year of our marriage to try to work, try and get a little bit established and maybe get some money in the bank. Actually have time to work on developing our community here! But yah later~
dREW~

G.K. Chesterton quote - "The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried."

It's been a busy week, and you can pray for me if you like! Monday I worked until midnight, was up for school at 8:00 and did school until 4:20 after which I did Chiro and then Pamela came over and ended up being awake till midnight again. Then i worked a 6:00 a.m. shift on Wednesday and the rest of the day was filled with swimming and errands and stuff. Got to bed at a decent hour but still only got at most 9 hours of sleep and so haven't really 'caught up' and then another full day of school today before heading off to calgary tomorrow after a shift to do a bunch of wedding stuff. 

I think this feeling is called overwhelmed and my state is burnt out. It's o.k. I know it won't be forever but I'm really looking forward to this reading week and having some time to just relax, chill, not think, not reason, not carry...

I'll admit, I am a little bit surprised. Working for McDonalds isn't sucking out my soul, it's actually given me a boost.

I'm not sure if it's not having to worry about money as much, the fact that I work with some hilarious people, or that it's a job I've picked up in 3 shifts and thus feel confident and accomplished, but overall we're doin good.

First Day at Mcdonalds!
Welp, it's done and official, I've got the uniform, I've asked someone if they wanted 'fries with that' and I've used my 50% discount to have a 2 dollar meal. I'm a McDonalds employee.

Here's the layout of 'what you get' if your a McDonalds Employee.
$9.50 starting wage.
$.10 raise for each night available to work until midnight.

1 McDonalds Blue hat
2 McDonalds Blue shirts
2 McDonalds Black pants

Post Secondary Tuition assistance.
$.25 for every hour worked up to a maximum of 500 dollars.

So that's about it. It's honestly not to shabby given that I have a 4 minute walk to get to work (although kinda makes my bus pas a little pointless - that was 220 bucks I didn't need to spend) I'm getting the exact shifts that I want Mon-Wed-Fri mornings. The people are pretty cool.

So that's that, maybe post some pictures if I can get past the lump of pride... Talk to you all later.
