Winding Down

IT SNOWED LAST NIGHT!!! All this time I've been in Montreal all I've been waiting for (other than my GMAT test) was snow. The weather predictions said it was going to snow ages ago but it didn't. Then last night right when I had all but given up on the chance of snow, I look outside and there's a white blanket outside. 


Now the last time I saw snow I was like 12 and I thought it was annoying since I couldn't go outside in my tank top and shorts. It was just soooo much effort just to go outside. Now I kind of still feel that way but it's a whole lot more fun to watch Nick experience his first snow.


He really had fun playing in it last night while it was still clean. Right now it's all brown and semi melted so its a big pile of slush outside. I've given up on my quest to buy myself snow boots. I have a pair but they're extremely too big and they're men's boots. They also don't go very high so just above my ankles is gonna get cold. All of these points are why I wanted to get them in the first place but then I thought what if I get into Pace and I find better ones there. Ooooorrrrr what if I don't get into Pace and I have no need for snow boots anymore. I also want to save some money to put back on my bank account. 

So what I have been up to for the past couple days?? Well I am soooo close to finishing Numb3rs but I kind of don't want the series to end even though it's been done for a couple years now.....Anyways, its like a good book you never want to end. I'm so attached to the characters that I don't want them to just disappear. I finished the Hush Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick which still had a couple good surprises left in it thankfully. It was a good series but sort of left a lot of questions like why all the fallen angel activity only happened in Maine....

Other than that I've been doing my part of worrying about whether or not I'll be accepted into Pace. Even though my 550 is above their minimum requirement there is still the possibility that I won't be accepted. Right now I'm just waiting on my transcripts to be sent to complete my application. It's really nerve wrecking not knowing what you are going to do when everything you've planned on relies on a decision that is completely out of your hands. It makes enjoying the present that much more important but also difficult. I've been trying to come up with a alternate plan which right now would be to work for the rest of the year and reapply to other school for the fall. I really don't want it to come to that but it just might. 

Today I had the slight desire to do pilates. Strange, I know. Inside the apartment is kind of warm and I had a couple hours to kill so the thought did cross my mind for a while. Then I went and ate a cookie. It's dawning on my now that my time here in Montreal is running out. I still want to go ice skating this weekend somehow and we're going to watch Catching Fire on Thursday...which is tomorrow!! :D Hanging out with Nick's friends is a lot of fun. Janet is sort of just like me and watching Nick and Andrew is always interesting. 

It's about that time of the day when Nick is soon home and I have some stuff to do before he gets home, like wash the dishes. I also want to cook something to eat since I haven't had a meal in like a whole 5 hours. (I usually eat every 2 hours) As said before, food here is AWESOME.

Chicken Alfredo Pasta :)

Alfredo Pasta with chopped up sausages

Penne pasta with minced meat


Yea I know it looks like a lot of pasta but I absolutely LOVE pasta. I don't really think I can get tired of it. Tonight I'm thinking Pasta with some sausages since that's the easiest thing to do and all I want to do is stay in bed.


Later :)
