Been pretty busy writing cover letters and arranging interviews all this week. But first, let me take time to follow up on Jon's blog entry about me, the fact that I like to travel. I'm really trying to go into retirement and not travel for a while... a while as in 2 years. My first priority is to graduate ASAP and then perhaps travel for 12 months before doing my masters degree. However, it's a bit hard not to think about travelling when this week 1) Kristi invited me to go to Costa Rica with her in December, 2) my boss asked me if I'm getting the travel bug, and 3) David proposed we tackle China summer of 2006.
People really need to freaking leave me alone... Fortunately, it looks like if I decide to travel next summer it would not delay my graduation date... so I am taking David's proposal seriously. I need to sit down and discuss my graduation with advisor first though. I'm not even going to get into Kristi's idea of Costa Rica... it'd be awesome if I could go with her. :(
So back to what I originally wanted to post... co-op. Its been a busy week. Actually... screw it, I've written enough and dont feel like writing more (you can blame Jon). In short, I had another interview with Fisheries and Oceans today cuz another position opened up there. Erin, the PhD student that first interviewed me, and Geoff recommended me to Susie, they called me and invited me to go talk to them. Overall I think it went well. On Monday I have another interview with Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources... this is the job I really want. I shall know the results middle of next week. Hopefully my job search will end here.
I am at work now and I think I will watch Star Trek Generations movie on the laptop.

Speaking of traveling... it looks like I'll be going to Brazil in March, during Spring Break.
