Sheridan Here I am.

This is it. I am back at Sheridan for my last year. I'm early, I was supposed to meet Daria for lunch before class but she opted out of coming today which I can't blame her ...The first week is always uneventful, nothing ever happens! So here I am back sitting in the It area killing time before my class starts. Integrated marketing communication management. So far I have only seen one person that I know..everyone else looks too young to be here! and no one I know. It will be interesting to see who came back for the third year.

I just got off the phone with Kyle, We were talking on our little lunch breaks. He was telling me that he had a crazy morning today going to work, He couldn't park at the Burlington GO this morning because someone in between Burlington and Oakville was killed on the tracks. Everyone was sent to ApplyBy Station and there were buses shuttling people to Oakville where they could catch the train to Toronto. They don't know how or why the person died, they either thought they could beat the train and tried to run across, were pushed on to the tracks or..wanted to end their life. Crazy morning and a horrible way to die. I will have to look at the news tonight to find out what happened.

Back to me sitting here.... I feel worlds away from the people around me, they seem so young and unaware of life. I'm 28 now! that is just mind boggling. My life is already established and it's good. I am really going to take this last year in and embrace it. This will be my last time as a student and I want to treasure every minute of this experience and enjoy it. I hope there's lots of parties and tons of fun events I can go to and all of that exciting last year of college stuff.

In other news Kyle and I spent a ton of time the other day investigating the U2 message boards to figure out the In's and outs of floor seating and get a plan mapped out. Kyle is going to go the night before the concert to see if anyone is camped out waiting and if they are we are going to have to join them! If not we'll be taking the GO train very early in the morning to make sure we get as close to the stage as we can. It's going to be one long day but we are only going to take the essentials and anything else like folding lawn chairs and rain parkas will be disposable so we can go to the concert without lugging anything with us.

Well I still have almost an hour but I'm going to go check out some things.

I will keep everyone posted on how school is going through out the week!

The Story of a Prince and a Girl who Dreamed of finding Her Prince.

Once upon a time there was a young woman named Ruby; she lived in a far way kingdom where only the stars in the sky could light the way. The kingdom was tall and made of stone. Inside, it had all of the finest linens and tapestries with winding stair cases, golden mirrors and exotic flowers that stretched the kingdom’s stone walls. The kingdom was surrounded by a large creek bed and had a large wooden draw bridge outside the tall black iron front gates. Beyond the kingdom were many forests, pastures, rivers and hills.

The young woman lived in the kingdom with only her two servants Nigel and Jasmine. They had been with Ruby ever since her mother gave birth to her and have cared for her and loved her since the great royal war that took her family tragically away from her. Years had past since then and Ruby was a young woman now. Since the great royal war she had not seen another person beside her servants. The lands had been deserted as other kingdoms were destroyed and abandoned. No one knew this kingdom existed. It stood in a far off place that only one deserted over grown pathway in the forest would lead to.

Ruby spent her childhood growing up playing with all the animals in the forest, she had names for all of them and would spend her days dancing in the pastures and walking along the creek bed throwing stones into the water. She was content those days as she lived free and enjoyed every tree, every stone, and every pathway near the kingdom. She loved her home but she missed her family and many times she felt alone.

As Ruby grew older she began to stop playing in the pastures and instead she spent her days walking along the creek bed dreaming of finding love and not being alone anymore. Every night outside her balcony she would spend time looking out into the stars and making wishes that one day soon a wonderful man would find the unmarked path in the forest that would lead him to her kingdom.

Nigel and Jasmine were very old now; Ruby took time to care for them and tended to their needs. She would gather food from the garden and make them food to eat and get them blankets to make sure they were comfortable when it was cold. She was not sure how much longer they would live but one thing she knew was how much she admired they’re love for one another and she hold that in her heart for as long as she lived.

It was a warm fall evening; the leaves from the trees were lightly falling as the sun began to set. Ruby was standing on her balcony in her long white silk night gown. As the dark sky began to shine, a light breeze bustled against her gown and her long brown hair blew lightly in the wind. She stood with her hands on the balcony ledge and wished to the stars like she had so many nights before singing” Star light Star bright bring my prince home to me tonight” She stared up into the dark blue sky and began to talk more to the shinning stars.

Just as she was looking up into the sky, talking to the stars a man was following the pathway from the forest that leads to Ruby’s kingdom. He was beginning to approach the edge of the pathway he had began journeying on earlier that day and was about to step on to a beautiful white shiny stoned pebble walk way that would lead up to a draw bridge and to Ruby’s kingdom.

The young man had been travelling for months only eating what he could find along the pathway. Henry was a prince from the golden city of Persia. He was on an expedition when he was captured by rivals and taken to a far away land where he was imprisoned in a place he did not know. Months ago after many nights planning Henry escaped while the guards were sleeping. He thought he would be able to journey home by recognizing land marks but once he had fled the guards he realized that he was further from home then he ever imagined and much to his dismay he did not recognize any of his surroundings. He had been following the sun in hopes of finding his way home. Each day he walked further hoping that one day the pathway would lead him to his family.

Earlier that day Henry had been walking though the forest with large green bushes and fruitful trees around him when he saw a small unmarked pathway that was ragged and old. There were no fruit trees, only old tall trees and an old pebble pathway that seemed run down and abandoned.

He was going to continue to walk on the pathway he had been but something caught his eye as he walked past this abandoned trail. Henry saw a small red ruby attached to a ring lying in between some wet leaves. The sun was shining on it and it glistened and shinned at him. He bent down and lifted the leaves around it away and dusted the ring off and looked at. The ring was prestigious and fit for a princess. He thought about continuing on the main pathway road through the forest but he was drawn down this unmarked pathway. He wondered if this ruby red ring belonged to someone. He put the ring in his pocket and began to walk along the jagged unmarked pathway. He noticed that there were no markings along this pathway so it appeared that no one had walked this pathway for many years.

To Be Continued…
