Heading North.. Part 2

To be perfectly honest, I love Keyano College, I love residence, and I love my roommates!! I thought coming up here would be difficult but it's been the complete opposite.. I'm so relieved. Fort McMurray.... well.... I can live with the place. I'm sort of avoiding going outside as MUCH as I can though! If you've ever been to a fish or meat market you know how bad the flies are... sticking to the food like mould to blue cheese. Well, decrease the size of the fly to a pin head, and replace the fish/meat with a person.. and that's what attacks you when you step outside. One flew into my eye the other day as the rest tried getting up my nose, into my ears and mouth, etc. And apparently everyone else in the Fort are now oblivious and unresponsive to these pesky little nuisances cause we were the only ones swatting every 1/2 second... I guess it's an easy way to figure out who the newcomers are.
School itself is interesting. Getting into a study routine again is proving difficult, but possible. My teachers are all very cool people; passionate about what they're teaching and dedicated to ensuring we understand what's being taught. The only class i'm not excited about is Psychology 106... death to the class... death. Besides that, life is oranges.. (all credit for that analogy goes to Megan Bauer... for reference, see her September 9, 2006 blog entry)
