I've underestamated my course by assuming that it was easy mumbo-jumbo
that just needed a little bit of flipping through the work books and
such. That's completely incorrect, because there's actually a lot of
studying required for it. I've spent over 2 hours reading through the
Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), which is a 4" binder and I still
haven't completely figured out how to use it. Well then, there goes my
free time...

Construction Electrician Level 1 seems so easy, I wonder if I can get
near 100% in school for my final grade. At the moment I have 100%.

Not making your bed is healthier than making it.

Need to learn to play Tommy Emmanuel's Angelina before I die.

Tomorrow is the first day of school for my level 1 electrical course.
Part-time; Mondays and Tuesdays online; Thursdays and Fridays inclass.
I get 3 days of solid work in per week for the next 8 weeks, meaning a
smaller paycheck. However, I get my raise after passing the course for
being officially on my second year. The only thing is that it's in
Surrey at a Community Skills Center, next year I'll transfer to BCIT.
Dad said Surrey is a rougher area, so don't dress too nice. So dress
like a hobo, smell like a hobo, gotcha.

Saw a black widow spider at work. I wanted to smash it with a hammer,
but I thought that it would be best not to splatter venom all over the
place.

My guitar was originally founded in a pawn shop; meaning that it's
history and previous owners are a complete mystery. For myself it
always seems that used musical instruments always have a soul.

I've always adored spiders of all shapes and sizes ever since I lived
in the Philippines for six months as a child. We used to capture them
and imprison them within matchboxes with a small cottonball drenched in
water for moisture. In the boys washroom they would fight them against
eachother upon a stick. The spiders would wrestle each other to the
death and the loser would get spun into a cozy little cocoon of love. I
had a cousin which I absolutely loathed; he tried to play with one of
my spider minions and it bit him. That was great.

You know how spiders that are very colorful are usually very poisonous?
Yeah, I found one of those before. It was speckled in rainbow colours
and was about the size of an adult tarantula. Stomped that sucker to
death. You know how some spider mothers carry their 50 young on their
backs? Stomped that sucker to death, watched all the cutie little
babies crawl off mommy's back and stomped them to death aswell. You
know how some spiders are as
big as a squirrel? I watched my uncle spray that sucker to death.
Surprisingly he didn't shoot it with his gun.

I am usually kind to spiders and I show fear to no one. Today I was
working under a deck and saw a huge black wolf spider. Seriously I
haven't seen any domestic Canadian spiders this big, ever. It freaked
me out, I wanted to punch that thing into the wall but it was too fast.

I SEE THE LIGHTS ARE TURNING
AND I LOOK OUTSIDE THE STARS ARE BURNING
THROUGH THIS CHANGING TIME
IT COULD HAVE BEEN ANYTHING WE WANT
IT'S FINE SALVATION WAS JUST A PASSING THOUGHT.

DON'T WAIT ACT NOW
THIS AMAZING OFFER WON'T LAST LONG
IT'S ONLY A CHANCE TO PAVE THE PATH WE'RE ON
I KNOW THERE ARE MORE EXCITING THINGS TO TALK ABOUT
AND IN TIME WE'LL SORT IT OUT

AND THOUGH THEY SAY IT'S POSSIBLE TO ME
I DON'T SEE HOW IT'S PROBABLE
I SEE THE COURSE WE'RE ON
SPINNING FARTHER FROM WHAT I KNOW
I'LL HOLD ON
TELL ME THAT YOU WON'T LET GO
TELL ME THAT YOU WON'T LET GO

AND TRUTH IS SUCH A FUNNY THING
WITH ALL THESE PEOPLE
KEEP ON TELLING ME
THEY KNOW WHAT'S BEST
AND WHAT TO BE FRIGHTENED OF
AND ALL THE REST ARE WRONG
THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT US

AND THOUGH THEY SAY IT'S POSSIBLE TO ME
I DON'T SEE HOW IT'S PROBABLE
I SEE THE COURSE WE'RE ON
SPINNING FARTHER FROM WHAT I KNOW
I'LL HOLD ON
TELL ME THAT YOU WON'T LET GO
TELL ME THAT YOU WON'T LET GO

I'M NOT ALRIGHT...

THIS COULD BE SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
COMBINE OUR LOVE INTO SOMETHING WONDERFUL
BUT TIMES ARE TOUGH I KNOW
AND THE PULL OF WHAT WE CAN'T GIVE UP TAKES HOLD

I got N'ded! Thanks to all for your support.
Today I practically gambled something that money could not buy and by
gambling I don't mean that I was blindly diving into a road test. Oh,
no, no, no; what I was doing was gambling my self esteem for months to
come.

"I've always wanted to pin a person down with their head on a plate;
with knife and fork in hand I would ever so passionately carve away at
their face as they scream in horror watching me feast upon their
unworthy flesh." -Probably the best most amusing thing that I wrote in months.

I'm going to try for my N tomorrow and I'm excited and nervous at the
same time. I hope that everything goes well. Need to keep my calm.
Arggh.
