I think it really was the crappy roommates from the last time you heard regularly from me that really put me off of writing in this blog anymore. Had I mentioned the one girl who smoked in her room until I told her it wasn't allowed so she moved to smoking on the balcony where there is a giant NO SMOKING sign on the wall (not mine, but from the housing office)? Or that by the end of term this year, two girls had double occupancy in their rooms (also a lease violation), and two girls hardly lived in their rooms?
Yeah, one of them was me. More on that in the next paragraph.
For May to November 2012, read this (11-pages of text - Has some relevant notes meant for a friend at the bottom). This is how everybody in FinnSoc betrayed me (the "Elysium" story a few posts below is catharsis for some of this pain) and tore CFJ and I apart. We broke up in August, but with the roommate situation at my place I still practically lived with him, dividing my time between his place and the work-desk I got in the linguistics department to work on my school stuff and thesis. After the last straw with being cut from the Christmas show, I decided to have nothing to do with those jerks anymore. But living with CFJ I still sometimes ran into Crazyfinn, though I tried to minimize that. (I'm not so impolite that I didn't go upstairs and say goodbye to them the night before I moved back to Calgary, though.)
From September to April I took up a part-time job at the university library discharging books (that's checking books in after they're returned, if you don't know the lingo). It was actually lots of fun and I always looked forward to it.
