I’m never in BC long enough. Here I go again on another flight out to Ontario.

During my daily check on what the Blog Squad is writing about, I noticed that a few fellow bloggers were talking about how to get enough rest with only 4.5 hours of sleep and and another blogger was talking about how we need as much sleep as we can get. Well, I won’t argue on the sleeping all day and night side. I love being able to sleep in and next semester will be so much better because of that. But, I felt like it was only appropriate that I contribute to the discussion and let you know that I never went to bed last night. I know what you are thinking, Patty Fowler and Maegan Cowan, “Why?” “What were you doing?”

Highlights:

11pm– I’m back at Totem Park after a closing shift at the Eagle.

12pm– I hear a creepy voice calling my name from the couches by the fireplace in the commons block.. of course it’s Megan.. “the girl that I don’t know.” We study. We study hardcore.

12:30am– J’habite a Vancouver. French Essay.

1:14am– I play the Stephen Harper song really loud from my MacBook to embarrass Megan and make her angry. 🙂

2:00am– Megan goes to bed. Not much else she can do for studying- It’s a Gateman midterm. ’nuff said.

2:10am– A good western is happening in Green Grass Running Water. Only 60 more pages of it.

3:42am– Only 30 more pages of it…

4:00am– I finished all of my Jones Soda candy, cold Wendy’s chili, and all of my bubble gum. Students are still up playing ping pong and others are studying on the eve of a Gateman midterm. Number of times asked if I was studying for Gateman? -don’t ask. The dude puts a cartoon of himself on the front of his textbooks.

5:00am– I leave the commons block and head back to my floor. Megan couldn’t sleep. We write on the white board in the bathroom.. excessively. Where would you rather be if you weren’t at UBC right now? Backpacking… Edwin jokes… the usual. We probably wrote worst things and I just can’t remember it right now.

5:30am– Pack for the flight that is currently boarding as I type.

6:00am– Walk to Starbucks. It’s still dark outside. The street lamps glow in the morning rain. I order a Soy Caramel Brule Latte.

6:30am– I start my grand trek down the Wreck Beach stairs complete with my mittens and drink. Heading down to Wreck Beach is so beautiful. I stopped to look at how large the trees are, the vegetation warming the forest floor, and the leaves falling down to the ground.

7:07am– I wake up with the world and the ocean in a misty rain on a Vancouver Friday. The sky is never ending, the mist is refreshing, the clash of the waves sound amazing and my Uggs sink into the wet beach sand.

7:45am– BIG Totem breakfast!

9:00am– English 100.
