SCHOOOOOOOOOLLLLL

Yes. I did it. I took the plunge and I've gone back to school. An MA in fact. I'm currently afraid - well that excited afraid like wow all these cool new people who can maybe be my new friends but wait, in order to be in their company week in and week out, I'll have to actually do work in an acedemic matter. Now, you may be thinking I did badly in school or am afraid of it, but that actually isn't the case. I got honours in school and frankly I was bored most of the time. I need entertainment people not chalkboards.

So the first day was Monday and i'm thinking, damn I'm going to be bored here. Heather, I say, Heather - keep an open mind and everthing will work out. So I go to class again today and presto! It's awesome. Of course I haven't done any work yet but we got to know everyone more and my classmates actually seem really down to earth. I still got nervous motor mouth myself when I'm chatting one to one so I don't know what they think of me but thank god for the rest! Let's see what happens next week shall we?

New nails!!!

It's an exciting time folks. I've got something to share with you - something I've never ever said in my whole life...I've GOT NEW NAILS! Something you may or may not know about me is that I have a chronic problem. I'm a nail biter. It's a fact. One I am ashamed of but I've always found it impossible to stop. When you've been doing something since you were a baby (that's right, I've not only chewed them but gummed them as well), it's darn hard to stop.

Sooooo a friend of a friend suggested fake nails - she tried them and it seemed to work. I was slightly doubtful but now it's been a week and I gots bea-ut-iful nails. Now I love them but it's weird to have nails when you've never had them before. Even washing my hair is bizarre - I'm managing though. And those nails, they hopefully will be for life. Or at least until my regular ones grow back.
