rip it up!

Apartment hunting is exciting...so exciting that I made an excel spreadsheet, as well as a special google maps analysis to determine the best place for me to live.

It is just too bad that I still have school stuff that requires deep concentration...2 presentations this week, presentation, exam, and 2 projects due next week, an exam and project due the week following that and I'm DONE!

Things I am happy about:
  • living in another city in just over 1 month from now!
  • foxmarks...I'll never lose my firefox bookmarks again, and they sync between my computers!
  • Finding a HUGE number of sublets in TO that are cheaper than I thought, and close to downtown...I'm hoping to walk a LOT and limit the amount of money I have to spend on public transit
  • taking a train! apparently you can see the northern lights during travel (it goes through Northern Ontario), I've never been on a train before, and it's like a trip in itself
  • GST cheques this Friday! And coinciding with payday, how glorious!

ahem.

I finally told the parents about moving! I feel so liberated! and Rach is coming with me via train, which should be exciting. The tentative t-date (toronto/train) is April 30th. Whee!

Another exam is over, too. I had meant to get more done tonight, but I didn't get home until nearly 10pm, and I was distractly with the whole telling the rents thing.

Now it's time to watch Law and Order and try to work on a group project.

whoo whoo!

so it looks like the cheapest (and most exciting) way to toronto for the summer is going to be the Train! It may only be like, $20 cheaper and take a couple of days instead of 3 hours, but I think it would be an adventure! I mean, when else am I going to take a train?

Ahhhh i want to plan my trip already but I have too much school stuff to do. Just over 3 weeks to go though...
