Spring has sprung... And I'm becoming an adult?



It's May! It's spring! A time for fresh starts and new opportunities and fresh adventures.  I have completed my time at Humber college, I have passed everything (pretty decently I might add **cough**HUMBLEBRAG**cough**), I have made some great contacts in the industry  (April goal-CHECK!) and I'm on to new challenges.  I have started my internship at the City of Toronto, working on city events including Doors Open Toronto, Canada Day, and the big one, Nuit Blanche.  I'm also working with NXNE and social media, I'm back to work more, I'm training for a 5k in June, and I'm trying to get sewing and patterns ready for friends and possible business.

 I'm once again remembering far too late that I tend to take on too many things.   Since I've been done school and started on all these projects, I have had Rey little time to breathe.  It seems I had more time during hell week to eat and sleep than I do now!  I remember 2 weeks ago when I was so excited to get to the park and drink beer and hang with friends and have my wild bartending drunkard life back!  Up until 6 am! Drinking on rooftops! Partying in tiny apartments! Biking home at dawn!  Baseball games! Pool hopping!!! I identifiable bruises and scrapes!! Drunken bonding!! SUMMER!!!!

And yet, even though I'm already missing baseball and park hangs, and I still have yet to get my bike tuned up, I'm excited with the future ahead. I'm working on huge events and with amazing people.  People will see the work I've done. These projects aren't just for marks, but for life and for a successful end result.  Even my attempts at running a 5k are for some sort of success and goal in sight.  There will be times for bike rides and baseball, for drunken nights and infinite dance parties.  There just have to be a few sacrifices made, I have to pick my battles.

Oh shit. Is this me becoming a grown up? DOODIE! FARTS! PENIS! POGS AND COOL RANCH DORITOS!!

Phew. That's better.

I also have another goal this month: I have to try 2 new restaurants a week.  So far this has not worked out so well, but luckily there are tons of restaurants  around I can hopefully catch up quickly enough.

That's it for now. I have to go fulfill responsibilities and junk. I might watch Game of Thrones while I do it though.  Balance, people.
