Lame Excuses for Blog Neglect.

I am supposed to be learning about the "Emergence of Modern Society" right now, but my blog is just so lonely, and I'm overcome with guilt for its neglect. Now that I'm back at school my writing focus is all over the place, I have an "Arts Writing" class which focuses on film, theatre, fine art, music and dance reviews and press releases within the arts. I'm also in a "Creative Writing" class this term, which is humbling, terrifying and exciting. We have to print off our fiction and poetry works for the whole class to critique, if that isn't motivation, I'm not sure what is.

I forgot how busy life in Waterloo is. Ok, so I only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday, but still, it’s busy! I've become involved in both Community Fellowship's young adults ministry and The Embassy . I serve supper at Grebel (college) on Wednesday nights. Sarah, my roommate, and I have decided to take up aqua fit at the local rec center across the road. Who doesn't want to go exercise with the elderly ladies? I have also joined a soccer team. It's going to be interesting to be sure. Point is, life is full and I'm enjoying it all.

Example: I spent the weekend in Exeter because Sarah, her mother and I went to a bridal expo in London, which was, of course, very fun. It involved a bridal fashion show, which I must admit made me wish that I could go prance around in pretty dresses for a day. This has always been a serious passion of mine, ever since the age of two when I informed my mother that I would wear dresses exclusively. Dress-up was a theme of the weekend actually, as Sarah and I also spent some quality time in a Goodwill change room, as Sarah tried to fit into a child's rabbit costume and I found my self hopelessly stuck in an oriental dress. I wanted to be Mulan for Halloween!

However, these are all poor excuses for neglecting this writing, so I'll procrastinate the homework to my little heart's delight and continue to write these letters to no one in particular, and everyone in specific.
