it seriously must be the end of the world or something but I totally forgot about American Idol - that POL200 exam really, really got to me. Not that its worth anything now - I thought that Josh was going to get the boot this week...and what a surprise, I was wrong once more. Anyways, it has come to my attention that some people think that Agata's birthday is being planned solely by myself. I really have nothing to do with her birthday except for helping choose a place & posting updates on the site - Agata says she wants whoever cares there so if you do and want a night of chilling with the old group, I'm sure she'd be pleased. Lee's Palace on Sat seems to be a definite after talking to Becky and Jona, the ring-leaders of the event...It's really weird being done that POL200 exam - it just left me feeling empty and it's hard to explain, its not that I just sat there for 2 hrs picking my ass, staring at the sky - I wrote all I could & it should (hopefully) get me a 70...it's like I haven't left the class with closure, like - "yah, it's done...fuck you (what ever class)" - but rather..."i'm done....what to do next?"...it's an awful course, one that completely just marred all other classes. At least I'm done with all that bullshit requirement courses that they force to you take to be enrolled in that class (God, requirement courses really suck) in Pol Sci...and in the more positive light, at least I have a minor already in Pol Sci. I can honestly say that UofT is absolutely over-rated & it really isn't worth all the stress they force on their students just to gradute with the name...I mean I've met some completely awesome friends that I hope to carry with me for the rest of my life, shared some unforgettable memories - but overall, when it comes down to the passion in what is being taught to be - I'm beginning not to care. I've been told his is just an end of the year reaction & that it'll pass after my last exams - but I honestly don't think so. I don't understand why I turned down perhaps the greatest opportunity to become the only thing I really see myself as, a journalist (in turning down Ryerson's offer) just to go to the "best university in Canada"...so what!?!? In reality - I kinda do know why & it is because of that stupidity that makes me regret my decision. I remember that my OAC Writers Craft teachers, Mr McCabe (complete dick, yet is perhaps the only person I've met deserving to be a dick because this guy is just that knowledged) saying that your university choice is really just bullshit & doesn't really determines anything - it is what you do after that shapes your future. I hope to God this guy is right.
