I phoned my parents. My mom picked up the phone and she said they'll be visiting on the 27th (Easter Sunday). For the preferential ranking of choices for next year, she suggests that I pick four that I'd like, rank them 1-4 for co-op, then 5-8 for traditional. I'm thinking Materials, Electrical (hey you never know), Chemical, then either Civil or Environmental (leaning towards EnvE right now, I'm sure I'll be fine doing a bit of biology...)
(Notable quote: "then there's 'computer process control,' which is basically like controlling processes with computers." - duh...of course, what else)
I told her about how I wasn't quite *meshing* with my roommates and that living at Schäffer would give me a greater likelihood of finding people I'd like to be with (and actually being able to hang out with them), although it'd cost something like $200 extra to stay there. She said she'd consult with Dad about it and call me back in a few minutes.
About 5 minutes later she calls back, saying that my dad says YES! to the idea (exclamation mine, emphasis probably accurate):
In other news, I did a huge load of laundry, took out the paper and plastic and tin recycling, put my papers into those new binders I got at the dollar store on Friday, discovered the photo album I bought there was the wrong size (anyone want a 5x7 photo album, or will I have to start making paintings that size?), and otherwise avoided my roommates. I felt bad for Jung Bin (the new Korean girl) this morning since Dana and Lea put their morning music on quite loud (like they used to before Bin moved in) - I wonder if it woke her.

- I won't have to necessarily live/socialize with people I don't like if I don't want to
- I can be better fed since if I don't feel like cooking I can just run downstairs to get a meal without worrying about doing that too often (besides I hate how most of the food places in HUB close at 6pm and aren't open on weekends)
- Internet access doesn't require a phone line and getting ports opened isn't a huge difficulty (thanks

forgottenlord!), plus it costs less per month than Telus - Since I don't need to get a land line, I can get a cell phone
- With a cell phone my parents won't have as much trouble as they have had for the last few weeks trying to get a hold of me
- Dad won't have to worry about moving a bed and desk along with all of my stuff (but we'll have to get a mini-fridge)
- I'll have more space in my room
- I won't have to share my washroom with ANYBODY (but I'll have to clean it all by myself)
- I get to write a funny letter whenever I put down my address
