Pitter patter, let's get at 'er!

Mood: tired, yet contented.
Music: City and Color - Casey's Song

So, obviously it's been a tad of a busy summer for me what with, well, never writing anything. Just the fact that I rememeber my blogger password should serve as some sort of a testament to my mental health. Or just my brain in general, especially after lastnight's smashing foray into the bar scene... but that's another story.

What, one might wonder, may cause Anneliese to become suddenly worrisome for her sanity?

Well! Allow me to explain, in full-fledged bulleted furor.

• I got an $8000 student line of credit added to my debit card, which was a fantastic feeling for a couple of days... untill the first 60% of my course fees came knockin' and left me with $86. Yes, eighty-six out of eight thousand. (For all you math wiz's out there, that's slightly more than one per cent.) Congradulations, I am officially in debt!
• The other day, our landlady decided to pop by and inform us that what's been our home for the last fourteen-or-so years is now going up for sale without further ado. Which means I get to enter into the exciting new world of University residence without knowing if I'll ever actually see my own room again.
• Oh, did I mention? Trent University abides by a so-called 'privacy act' that apparently no other university has ever heard of. This basically means that I have absoluetly no form of contact with my roomate-to-be untill I walk into the dorm and say "Hi! I'm Anneliese! I'll be sharing this walk-in-closet-sized living space with you for the next eight months!" ...And we all know with my luck, she'll turn out to be a 200lbs-of-pure-muscle, straight-off-the-plane German exchange student named Brunhilda who enjoys bodybuilding and playing men's rugby. Ha!
• Trent is in Peterborough. Peterborough is nowhere near Chicago, and consequently, my boyfriend. (Nor is Guelph for that matter but I'm just saying...)

Anyways. Other than that it's all pretty exciting. My University bar is called The Cat's Ass, and lord knows it can't get much better than that!

And now after so long an absence, I leave you to become re-acquainted with the ever-wonderful moi via a crappy fill-in-the-blanks chain letter.
