Omg that was like the best thing I have ever read! :P

That was such an awesome idea, to message everyone and finding out what they are up to. Thank you for posting it! That's awesome, to hear what they are all doing and it sounds like we're all living adventurous lives, which is good to know. It's a real shame so many of them are dating gingers though :P
It makes me miss all those hilarious people! I wonder if we will ever have that reunion?
Also, I can't believe you are moving to Corner Brook! I have a friend in Halifax who is from there, and he LOVES IT!!! Like, absolutely loves it and I'm so happy you are going there...what are the chances?! I wish I could visit you though! Maybe somehow I still can. You must be moving soon...that's so exciting! I wonder what teaching will be like.
Well, I moved back to Courtenay. Basically, I am doing all the things I never thought I would do. I found a place to live in town, but it was pretty weird and I was like, well I don't really want to live here, and there is room for me at my dad's house, so maybe I'll just move in with him, not pay rent, and be one of those lame people who lives with their parents :P
Maybe this is my payback for judging people who stay in Courtenay, live with their parents, and go to community college...because guess what, that is excactly what I am doing. To top off the utter cliche, I'm even working at the grocery store!
Ugh.
But actually, I'm not even upset about it. I'm like, whatever, I can go for this year of college, and in 8 months, I will have an associates degree in arts, which isn't spectacular, but it is something, and I can transfer to university with it and get a bachelors degree in 2 years (petentially a little longer, but not by a lot). It sounds a lot better than just one year towards a 4 year degree, and since I am now living with my dad (altho I just decided to tonight so he doesn't even know yet! Lol!), I can save up and go travelling next summer! Horray!!!
That is all I really want to do anyways, and this way I can do that, and also be a bit responsible and get at least a halfway decent education. I'm mostly taking philosophy and English, which I enjoy. Actually, they have a very limited selection so I am taking philosophy of love and sex, and narratives of love and sex, which actually I am looking forward to. I'm also taking creative writing and solar science and astrolomy (one of two sciences I was eligible for, seeing as I only took sciene until grade 11). So there is the odd class that sounds kinda boring, but overall I think it should be pretty interesting, and I can work along the way and then in May, or June, whenever I have saved up $10 000, which is how much I think I can travel for a year on, I will get myself a ticket outta this town and hopefully become a travel writer in the process!
I have a friend who is going to Sri Lanka in 6 months, it would be kinda cool to go chill with him there in a while. Or I could travel down through the states and into south america, and then go work in Australia once I run out of money...there are SO many options!!!
I intend to be totally broke and totally exhilerated when I get back, and then maybe then I will go back to school or something.
Or maybe I will be like this forever! Who knows. All I know is, I am glad to be doing what I am doing, but I want to travel, and that's what I'm going to be doing again soon.
Anyways, that's an update from this neck of the woods, the god forsaken rock as I so fondly call it :P
Hope all is well with you, can't wait to hear about your move!
Love Edna
