I'll try not to go on too long about it, even though there's a lot I'm worried about. But most reecntly I've been accepted to Centennial College in toronto for a video game development program. This is a bit scary for me because I'm moving to Toronto and that's not really what I expected to be doing at all this year. That and I'm nervous about moving as I've spent the last 22 years of my entire life cooped up living with my family, and I've never gotten that taste of independance. I know it's long overdue and I'm definitely glad it's finally happening, it really needed to. It's still nerve-racking though. I'm still not sure if I'll be living in residence on campus, or whether I'll find my own place nearby. We'll see how it works out. But still, Toronto. It's a lot bigger than London. And more exciting. It'll be a grand adventure.

Dan! I can calm your worries at least for now. I'm planning on doing a bit more schooling but it's a bit too expensive out in vancouver. I've applied to colleges in toronto and london and stuff... the furthest away I'd reasonably end up is in kingston. But, I probably won't! I'm hoping to get into fanshawe, but I might also reasonably end up in toronto. In any case I'll definitely still be near home and I'll travel home frequently for visits, probably most weekends. For now I have several contracts and my job with the facebook guys that I'm still working on. All of which I've been working on from home - at first it was driving me insane, but now I'm getting into it a bit more. There's definitely a lot of nice and awful things about working at home, double edged sword... but I could probably get used to it. I've got a busy month coming up. A big contract through a design firm for 3M will eat up my work hours. I'm going to see Goril...
