!@#@@!@$$$!!%% Pharmacy!
"Although we are unable to offer you admission at this time, your application was competitive within a large applicant pool and you are among the upper half of a group of approximately 100 applicants on our waiting list."
Thanks U of T. Another long wait to find out whether or not I've been totally rejected. Actually, I dunno if I wanna be a pharmacist anymore. At the pharmacy, I often question myself and ask myself if I would actually be able to handle the stuff the pharmacists I see handle everyday. I don't think I could. But I guess that's what school is for right? I have no idea.
So, I've been wondering whether or not I actually want to get into pharmacy. I was questioning myself for a while. But now that I've gotten closer to getting in than I ever have before, I feel like I wanna go into pharmacy again. This sucks. I hope a lot of people decline their offers so that I can get in =) lol. We'll see what happens next.
PS. Robin rules =)
I graduated!
Yes.. I had convocation 2 days ago. wow, time goes by so quickly.
So I told my mom I graduated with Honours and with distinction... so I'm not a total failure. What's her reply? "Well... you're not using your degree for anything anyways... what a waste"
Geez. Thanks for the support mom.
Actually, I understand their disappointment in me. I feel like I wasted 20 grand of their really hard earned money.
I'm sorry, I really am.
But the day was still fun! Especially thanks to Shannon and Robin. Oh how I love these two people.
on another note, Bully is an awesome wii game! I borrowed it from the library and now me and Robin are sharing it cuz we both wanna play it. I wanna play the game now... but it's not with me. too bad.
I'm gonna go read something now. ttyl!
Hellooooooooooo
Hm... so I was reading some blogs today, and probably due to my need to procrastinate, I have decided to post something on this old abandonned blog of mines. How crazy. It's already been 2 years since I last posted. I'm not gonna tell anyone, not even Robin, that I am posting something. Let's see how long it takes for someone to find this new post (if anyone does). lol
So, it's my final year of university. I'm scared, excited, tired of studying, and feeling all those mixed emotions associated with graduating. I currently have
no idea what I will be doing next year. I think the only thing I know for sure is that I want to return to school. I'm not sure if this is just to avoid job hunting, avoiding the possibility of landing a job that will pay min wage, or if I actually wanna continue with more education to better myself and land me a job I'll actually be happy doing.
Come to think of it, I don't really know what job would make me happy. I used to think being a pharmacist was a pretty good job: good salary, job stability and you really just sit in a little area, count pills and talk to people all day. But now that I actually work in a pharmacy, it's finally hit me how boring this job can be. I think if I ever had the chance, I would try to get into a Shoppers or into a hospital pharmacy to try it out. Maybe I'd enjoy it a bit more. ughhhhhh I really have no idea what i'm doing. How sad that I've wasted over 20 grand on an undergrad degree that I probably won't be using much. We'll see what comes out of it.
On another note, I'm finally going to visit Shannon in Ottawaaaaaaaa! Yea baby! after about 4 years, it's finally gonna happen! I'm excited. I miss Shannon. At least I can call her for free since we're both with Rogers. =)
okkkkkkk I am reallly just procrastinating right now. I have this lab report due on Monday and I'm going out on both Saturday morning, Saturday night (I reserved Saturday afternoon for studying... but somehow my mom squeezed in a trip to the bank (where they actually need to sit down and do something) and my sister begged me to take her for a haircut). I'll also probably be out all day Sunday. BUT the report is more than 3/4 finished so I'm not tooo worried about it.
I hope this school year ends with a better mark in everything. I feel like I'm really falling behind but I don't have the motivation to try harder... nor do I have the time... but this time thing really feels like a cover up for my incredible procrastination skills. Technically, if I spent less time checking email, going on facebook, and surfing the net, I would have way more time. Terrible aren't I?
I find that motivated people are really worth respecting. I guess it's because they've found what they're passionate about and they know what they want that makes me jealous. I wish I had this kind of drive in life. I'm not a total slacker, but I definately know that I could work harder. It kinda makes me sad that I'm not giving it my all. In a way, I'm letting myself and most importantly, my parents, down. sighhh. I need some real motivation. Does anyone volunteer to be my motivational speaker?
Anyways, I'm gonna go work on that lab report now. With any luck, I'll have the discussion section done by tonight and I'll only have the pre-lab part to complete tomorrow afternoon. Let's see how that goes. Hope u'r all doing well! Until next time!
i hate exams
why aren't my exams over yet????? grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr neways i discovered a new chinese song that i like:
阿沁 - 記得愛it's funny how so many male asian artists look kinda girly cuz they leave their hair out longer. lol.
i need to learn how to read chinese so i can understand the lyrics lolz. new goal for the summer - pick up a few more chinese words =)
hope everyone's enjoying their summer
lolz, this blog is sooooooooo neglected =)
yes, it's 4am in the morning, me gonna go sleep now. zzzZZZZZZ
weeekendddddddddd
on friday night, i went to see teenage mutant ninja turtles with robin. it's a good movie. wish there was more plot development though. it had some good scenes in it, but, sometimes the parts didn't quite flow as well as they could've. oh well. fun night =)
saturday, wrote my pharmacy admissions test. ughhhhhhhhhhh.... i wish they would just pity me and let me in. i'll be a good pharmacist, i promise! >_< thinking about it makes me feel so blahhh... i feel like i'm letting my parents down. they always had so much hope in me and i feel like it's being wasted on a procrastinating zombie.
today is sunday, i took michael and sharon to fmp to watch "meet the robinsons". I actually liked that movie. it didn't have funny parts that would make you laugh out loud, but it had a nice message "keep moving forward" at the end of it that really made the movie extra special. i loved it.
i still need to go get my cellphone upgraded. ughhhhhhhh i think i wanted to go in for my hardware upgrade since before december. lolz. such a procrastinator. >_<
oh, and i still don't know if i'm going to quebec this summer. i really wanna go. and the website said results for the explore bursary should be posted by late march. but it's the beginning of april and the screen still looks the way it did a month ago. >_< let me gooooo... i wanna learn french while immersing myself into a culture of .... escargots and love? lolz jks jks, that's France. i just wanna go and see how rez life is... PLUS learn french =) all for free.
well, that was my weekend. it was all in all, really good, minus the UTPAT (admissions test). I wish i could think faster, write faster, and be able to come up with short stories on the spot and be able to think out of the box like robin does. i talked to him after my test and he gave me some good suggestions on what I could've, should've, but didn't write on the test. BLAHHHHHHHH. me feel so stupid.
neways, robin has an exam tmr, so GOOD LUCK! I know you can do it =) your english skills are so much better than minesssss! i think i need to find a job dealing with numbers more than memorization. i tend to do better in courses where you gotta learn how to calculate stuff.
how was your weekend?
so, instead of studyingfor my chem testttt...
i went looking at ppl's blogs andd i stumbled across an old friend's blog. her cuteness made my heart fill with smiles =D
hehe i haven't spoken to her in a while. i think i will facebook her!
=)
http://www.xanga.com/MiMi_HeLeNps i hope she won't mind e posting the link to her site. then again, i don't think she would ever come to this old, boring log... would she?
ugh.. stupid new blogger system
so, i tried to sign in and stupid bloggger forces me to get a gmail account. hey, i've heard it's good, but i don't feel like having another email address. oh wellz. so.. i had 2 tests today. EWWW i hate having 2 tests on the same day =( first test was horrible, but the second test was ok. i came out with a mark better than my first test so yay!
hmz... what else is up? nothing really. another test this wednesday, and then i'm pretty much testless until april =) that means i need to spend tons of time to catch up on everything (especially bio.. i think i haven't done the readings since our 3rd lecture this sem, pretty bad).
oh, and my dad will apparently bring me a car sometime in the next 2 weeks. i still need insurance though. it's a mercury mystique 1998. haha i was telling my coworkers about this car to ask if they knew cheaper insurance companies and i accidentally said it was a mercedes. and they're like WHAT? of course insurance is expensive. then i thought about it and was like oh.. oops, my bad, it's actually a mercury =P oh well. they know i'm totally clueless =)
on another note, i love seeing my paycheques. haha makes me feel like i have money to spend again... but i guess that's bad cuz i feel like i can spend it more freely. however, the other day, my mom offered to buy me a $45 purse and i said i don't need it and she was proud of me. my sister then made an angry face and said "thanks a lot alice, you make me look bad" cuz we all know she woulda gotten it in a heartbeat =) i'm glad moommy's proud of me =)
oh oh, i like march break cuz i get to see little kids on the trains who are going to the museum or something. they're so cute... especially when the train jolts a bit and the 3 or 4 year old hugs the pole in the middle of the train because she (wearing pink) chose not to sit on a seat and didn't wanna fall.
oh.. my posts have become so utterly random. oh well. i'm too tired to write essays like robin. >_<
goooooooooooodnight =)
