you know how some people can sense change coming? i'm not one of them. change has a way of just smacking me in the face.
i'm having some karma issues this week. for everything good that happens, something 5 fold worse sneaks up on me. the best part, it's only wednesday.
and perfect example... i just wrote out this whole post. i was starting to feel good, relaxed a little, and then just as i went to publish it, it dissapeared. poof, gone. -cut to my blood pressure skyrocketing.-
tuesday i went on a field trip with Anna and the other upper fours. we went to a Hindu Mandir (temple) in north LDN. Tracy (High House Assist. Housemistress - AHM) and I were chapperoning which meant that we got to tag along, do minor work like round up with kids and hand out packed lunches, and sleep two hours there and two hours back on the coach. *** we must have looked fabulous with our mouths gaped open and our heads all askew... we had a great time and had so much fun with the kids, plus we're field trip buddys. we always end up getting called in together, and it's always a laugh. so, i get home and decide to check my email. there's one from Jayne (Gap co-ordinator amongst other things) telling me that i will no longer be working in le roy, but rather taking the crap ass job of doing cover on friday nights. bare in mind that fridays used to be my day off, meaning that i could leave early and have a long weekend. maria and seve both have mondays off and i had fridays off. it was a beautiful arrangement. now alrun has stolen my thursday nights in le roy (le roy being the youngest house with 11 year olds in it, and my favorites) AND my day off. friday was the only day that worked for me because i have to be here every morning to help Anna any way. (and completley beside the point but relevant to me hating her -- apparently alrun has now dyed her hair the same color as mine. first my job, then my day off, and now my hair? wtf??)
i'm a little more than miffed about this, but anyway... the news has been out for less than 24 hours about my getting me boot, but le roy (bless them) are already up in arms about it all. they don't want alrun working with them twice a week, but would rather i get the double shot. i've actually heard rumours of petitions. hahaha. i'm down with doing both tuesday and thursday. infact, i've proposed that as an alternative to the astronomically idiotic idea that they currently have in place. i've been wanting to work more anyway. load me up with le roy goodness. but now that i've vented (twice) and made you all feel my misery, i'm off for lunch with seve. i'll keep you updated on my crap life that has become this week.
ps. mum & dad - too lazy to email... can't find that letter of proxy thing on the uvic website. sos.

I think you just need to draft a letter and sign it so mum and dad can bring it to UVic on your behalf. Include any student #s and info on how to reach you in the UK explaining your situation. That is how it used to be done anyhow...
