(Note: the post title is C’est la rentrée, for some reason the PNG generator doesn’t take accents. Just needed to set Cufon to “Extra”)

It has now been September for almost two days. Summer’s pretty much over, and students and teachers are getting ready to hit the books. But not me. Thanks to procrastination and administrative stupidity, I didn’t manage to get through the necessary paperwork and won’t be able to head back to university until January at the earliest. I have to say though, it’s a bit of a relief not to be going back…

Today was the first day of school for us  at the CSDCCS. “But wait”, you say, “it’s not Labour day yet!”. Well, effectivement, Labour day is next Monday. However our Conseil decided that September 8th is much too late to start school. Instead, it has been decided that the 2nd and 3rd will be the first two days of school, but that Friday the 4th will be a “holiday” for teachers and students. Go figure.

Anyway, today I also went downtown to visit Emma and Muna in their new apartment. They’ve got a little basement place, pretty sweet location not far from U of T campus and Chinatown. Honestly it’s a pretty sketchy-looking place, but hey, that’s part of student life right? Actually, it made me feel kind of nostalgic… I miss the sketchy places, and just hanging out, reading webcomics and such.

That’s all for now… I even tried out two new “things” in the post today; inserted some français here and there and used people’s names (gasp!). Not sure if I’ll still think these were good ideas in the morning, but whatever.
