hello

Good morning. Or good night. How about just, hello? Its 2am, so why am I posting? Not quite sure. I wanted to post earlier (yesterday, I guess now), but I felt really sick so I just went to bed, at about 9:30. I'm definitely not done with sleeping, but I just woke up for some water, remembered I had to send an e-mail and figured I'd say hello to the blogging world.
I came home from work and there was a card sent from the church office (not sure if its from the church or if someone dropped it off to send it anonymously), with a passage from Romans and addressed to "Niki, a friend of God', with 20 bus tickets!! How wonderful :) I can totally use that, especially tomorrow, because its my crazy long day and maybe, just maybe, I shouldn't be walking home at 11pm or later at night. I don't mind the walk to work at all, but I realized today (err, yesterday), that after a 7 1/2 hour shift of standing, the last thing I want to do is walk home. So, thank you-to whoever that was. It is SO thoughtful.
Oh, I got the job at ActLabs! ...and then I turned it down. The busses don't run that late at night (it'd be a 4-12am shift) out in Ancaster. Oh and someone (or a bunch of someones rather) kindly pointed out that I'm in fact NOT superwoman. If I took the job I'd be at school from 8am-3pm, and working 4pm-midnight. Not only that, but its an 80 minute bus ride from my house, farther from the school (which would make me LATE...not a good habit), oh and the fact that I wouldn't be eligible for BCSAP because I'd be working a full-time job. So...that sucks. I was so tempted, for a total of 2 minutes, to take the job and put school on the back burner for another year, save up lots of money and go next year. But I'm really excited about school and I really think this is what I'm supposed to do, so here I am God, trusting that you will provide. :)
I'm tired, going back to bed. Goodnight. morning...whatever. :P
Love Niki
