knocing out november
Goodness. This month I've:
- applied for a tourist visa to Canada (the drama of which most of you have been spared. Still waiting for the results...);
- turned in the last of the extra-curricular activity certificates I needed to (the thought of which has been terrorizing me since 2008);
- completed the internship I've been working at for 15 months (I could have stayed on longer but I decided not to);
- delivered my monograph on House & its portrayals of disability (at 12,000+ words);
- was paid for the first time to translate from French to English (with a lot of hand-holding/cheat-sheeting fromzulu & E.).
:)
December and January will be (relative) vacation time for me. (Still have to teach a few hours a week and I've at least one text to edit, but that is little!) I mean. February too will be vacation and I'll be visiting my love :#), but the next two months will be here in Floripa.
What I plan to do... will be different from what I actually do. *laughs!* But my Big Dreams are:
- draw!
- write scripts for comics & world-plan for a very long story!
- visit nature-places in Floripa (R. says he'll go with me :D :DD)
- clean my room!
- play video games??? (<-- i am suddenly in the mood...!)
- other????
Somedays it feels like I am getting nowhere at all, but November has brought many long-term projects to fruition. Lots of big things paying off at the same time, some of them from over three years! I am grateful and satisified. ♥
