What? School? YEAH!
I’m at the University of Quebec right now, hogging a computer someone told me I could use without any problem. What am I doing here? I had a meeting with the director of the Biology programme who checked my credits and told me I can start to study in January if I want to. WTF? This is great! I’m going to fill in my application tonight and bring the papers tomorrow. He said they will give me credits for the courses I took in Colombia and at the University of Montreal and that I could start with 1 or 2 classes during the Winter session. I’m thrilled and a little confused, but definitely happy.
And because this is such a small world, I happened to meet a Biology graduate student… from Colombia! Nice guy, willing to give me all the info I need and even told me there’s a latino party in two weeks if I want to come, he he! He also wants me to contact his father regarding a job and because the world’s even smaller than I thought, he’s good friends with the only Colombian girl I know in town. Serendipity? Luck? Guardian angel taking care of me? Things definitely get good sometimes and I don’t feel so alone now. Woohoo!
I must go. People are starting to look at me as if I were some kind of weird bug. I’m not a student here… but I’ll be! Now it’s time for a vanilla hazelnut coffee, a good bus ride and then candy, candy, candy with the kids. Too bad it’s raining, though. Oh well, who said life is perfect.
