Late Night Ramblings

  It's horribly late and on top of that I've been feeling beyond tired for the past couple of days... I really should be getting to bed. But, instead of hitting the hay, and instead of trying to channel my last bit of energy into finishing my query letter (that is now overdue, oops!!) I have the urge to write here for the first time in almost three months... 

 I'm back in school, full time, YAY!!! I couldn't help but be a little bit bitter  about having to repeat classes and such, and of course I was nervous about having to get used to a whole new group of people, but so far things are going really well. I'm really enjoying my new group of classmates and apart from a few classes that I knew I was going to hate anyway, Ethics *cough*, this new start has been kind of refreshing. 

 Unfortunately my efforts to resurrect my Q piece didn't amount to anything, but instead I'm working on a piece for the Ryerson Review of Journalism that unexpectedly is turning out to be kind of interesting subject-matter. We'll see how I feel by January though, heh. I've also landed the position of Co-director of Circulation and Advertising for the magazine, which should be really interesting once we get started. And of course, as of Friday officially, I'm back at RyeCCESS as Student Advocacy Coordinator. Despite the tensions of the past few months (a few of you will know what I mean, but I won't be discussing it here) I really missed working there and I think my ideas combined with those of my new coworker will make for a good year. There seems to be a lot more structure being enforced on the  part of our supervisors this year, which I haven't decided if I like yet, but we'll see. I haven't even been there for two days yet.   

 Okay, words are barely coming to me now, time for bed! More later, I promise! I want to try and use this as an outlet to flex my writing muscles, keep them nice and limber for the many feature pieces I've got to write soon... *groan*...No wait, I mean... Yay?
