Day 3 & 4

I missed day 3…it came and went with a bang. More assignments….more challenges for the year and wow…this is going to be an intense semester. I might not be seeing much of anyone starting next week. I will be locked up in School 24/7 working on finishing this last semester of college!

I had such an amazing night last night…relaxing…just knowing that I had today (Thursday) off was all I needed to be excited. My classes yesterday, one about account management and one about starting a small business were exciting but I was happy to come home.

Today has been a day of rest. I finished the first season of “The Secret Life” it was totally awesome. And the last two days I got in some memorable episodes of “American Idol” and a couple of movies and “Biggest Loser” with Kyle.

I just got off Face Book and unfortunately got the bad news that the Ontario college teachers have gone voted to go on strike. If there is no resolution I may be getting a lot of time off before I graduate. The up side to this is since we have all of our assignments already this means we would have plenty of time to work on them the bad news is, I have no idea how long the strike could end up lasting and it might take a very long time for me to graduate. For a lot of people this really messes things up for them. They have permanent plans that start at the very end of school. The fact that we may start back up in May or June could really affect them.

Whatever happens I know it will be okay, we have been told that nothing will hinder what we have done so far and if they do go on strike we will come back and just tag on extra weeks to our semester until we’re finished.

We will see what happens. Well….I am excited for tonight, we are having tacos tonight! I am going to get everything ready pretty soon…yummy ground beef, cheese, tomatoes and lettuce ..creamy sour cream and salsa…mmm mmm Good!

Tomorrow I have another long day at school, I am going early every single day to get things done and will be staying late almost every single day to finish things to. Wish me luck. I am looking forward to the weekend though. Hopefully we’ll be in the Falls on Saturday and maybe see the movie “The Lovely Bones” with mom. Life is definitely going to be interesting this year. This teachers strike is just the beginning!

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…
