Learning from Dogs

If a dog was the teacher you would learn stuff like:
- When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
- Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
- Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
- When it's in your best interest, practice obedience! - Let others know when they've invaded your territory.
- Take naps.
- Stretch before rising.
- Run, romp, and play daily.
- Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
- Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
- On warm days, stop to lie on your back in the grass.
- On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
- When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
- No matter how often you're scolded, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout... run right back and make friends.
- Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
- Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you have had enough.
- Be loyal. Never pretend to be something you're not.
- If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
- When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.

My own internet!

Well, exciting news… I have internet on my own computer- much better than having to use the college ones. Also I will be moving into a new, bigger room in the house. I don’t really mind the room I have, I actually really like it (except for having to get into my bed and making the bed- a bit difficult). But the other room is maybe 2 and 1/2 times bigger than the one I have. And I get a double bed! It looks really nice anyway. The downer is that the last person in the room had a dog which slept in the room a fair bit and it wasn’t house trained at all (which I found out the hard way the first night I spent here). So the room does smell a little, but it shouldn’t last too long hopefully. I have been working at the hospital a fair bit lately. And not being used to working so much, I am quite tired (boo hoo to me). Might be getting sick, but hopefully if I look after myself I wont.

It's been a while

Well I guess I dont write on my blog often enough because I have been trying to log in and post, but I have had truoble getting in. Anyway, I think I was just tying the wrong thing. But I am finally in tonight. My most exciting news is that I have moved out of the Res. There were a few annoying hiccups, but I think things are all sorted out by now- hopefully. So now I am living in a house, not a dorm. Its pretty good not having to carry everything to the shower all the time, and also the kitchen/cooking stuff is soo much nicer and easier. Also I will have my own internet when I get someone to set it up in the next few days- that is a real bonus. All I need now is a car- which I am working on. I am currently working a night duty shift which is a little boring, but the money is slightly better than a day shift. And I get 8 hours at night where as I generally get 6 hours during the day. Silly me for deciding to do a week of night duty. I was sooo tempted to cancel tonight, seeing as I am a really lazy person and just couldn't be bothered working. But I think they really needed me to work, so I am. Anyways only really wanted to say I am living in a
house now- very exciting stuff.
