Days turning into hours

Yello folks,


I had my first days at Langara last week, which was interesting. I didn't really get a chance to talk to anyone in depth about anything, but I'm hoping that will change when I go out to get signatures to start a Gay/Straight Alliance. Surprisingly (or not, if you take a list of the clubs at Langara), there isn't one at my school, and I thought I might as well get one started. The main problems I have is 1) not knowing anyone and 2) being unsure if I could run a club, in addition to my courses, my documentary project, and trying to have some sort of social life. The good thing is that I'm really... motivated to do it, so hopefully I'll get those signatures soon.

Good to hear from you, Ann! Have a safe trip home tomorrow! (or today?)

Lily, I agree with Chels. Despite her apology, she seems like a bitch to me. The only thing you can do now is to keep up the great job I know you're doing. Don't let her ignorant comments get to you because quite frankly, it's not worth it to get upset over things you know aren't true. Right?

Sorry to hear you don't feel very good over there, Chels. At least you're coming over here for the weekend! I'm glad you realized it's not your fault that you actually want to get to know people outside of the school they go to; a lot of the conversations I overhear at school are the generic, "How many courses are you taking? Oh, I know that prof. He's cool. I have so much work" etc. Just because you're in school doesn't mean that's the only thing you can relate to someone about. See you soon!!!!

Oh, I almost forgot to mention... my short film I wrote at VFS got into the Vancouver Queer Film Festival! It'll be screening in August, which I am so excited for. I also get a artist's festival pass, which I'm guessing means I get into a bunch of films, which is good because last year I spent close to $30 on films and now I have no job. :( But hooray!

See you all soon!



Aaron
