  Loan Woes Life | Comments Off

  Panic: noun. Realizing you forgot to put some VERY important information inside your Student Loan application and probably that's why you haven't heard from the Ministère de l'éducation yet. DARN IT! I found out by myself because I had a "funny feeling" and yes, there it was, the good page I was supposed to send with the required information, while the bad one (the draft) is somewhere at the Bureau d'aide financière aux études. Breathe and relax... I'll call tomorrow to check what can be done. Meanwhile, I'm taking donations, ha! Not really, but I'm seriously rethinking my finances.

  Credited, oui! Life | (4)

  I'm back, with three extra credits accepted, w00t! That means I don't have to take any Biostatistics courses, whew! Not that I have anything against them, but I surely can do without for now and move to more interesting things. I stopped at the video club on my way back, but I was too chicken to rent "The Passion of The Christ", even if there were loads of copies available. I managed to come home with "The Laws of Attraction" and "Ella Enchated" instead. This definitely will be a chick-flick afternoon. After a nap, that is... Yawn!

I was able to see her in action thanks to TeleLatino. ...

  I guess living in Canada, I'm not the only one who's excited about the World Cup of Hockey. The national team will play against the US tonight, that's some match! And now I have to go ready because... yikes! I'm going to school. ;-)

  Not So Proud Colombia, News | Comments Off

  "What now, fumigation with Napalm? It is only those pesky Colombians living there, you know? Then again, the government of the USA has always been famous for its ability to defoliate other countries, while doing nothing about their addict President." -- Sometimes I wish I could write like Camilo. This is regarding a new variety of Coca drug lords have developed in Colombia, which seems to be resistant to Glyphosate. I feel so NOT proud tonight... I feel like spitting on the face of every cocaine dealer and addict right now, there is no room for compassion, I'm afraid. My ...
