House

This is the last Korean image you will see. Korea was destroyed last week by an enormous 2-dimensional T-Rex and its squealing offspring. That dinosaur took like 4 art classes to make. I'm pretty happy with it. There are about 6 more feet of tail not pictured. Basically, I cut out the shapes and the kids did the coloring and painting. Korea was fine: I left amidst weirdness but I tied everything up and was fully paid, so that's the imp thing.

I got back up to PG on Saturday night. It was nice to see Roxanne, family and friends. We're heading south today but I haven't started packing yet, which doesn't explain why I have chosen this moment to post. Anyway, everything seems to have fallen more or less into place for the start of school. I got orange flip flops and a car. It's an '88 Camry wagon. I have named it "House" because plan D involves me sleeping in it. Also, that name will help me keep my New Year's resolution, which is to be more like House. The world needs more caustic witty sarcasm, especially Kelowna.

It turns out I did get into the SFU education program after all, off of the wait list. This I found out yesterday, which was quite a bit too late. I'm not sure which I would have accepted had I gotten into SFU earlier, but I'm quite excited about this program. It worked out for the best, despite my best efforts. If nothing else, it's nice to know that I got into all 3 of the schools I applied to (not including UVIC, where I was disqualified for not having some prerequisites); no one likes rejection, even if it is explainable. Anyway, I should really start packing and stuff. I'll leave you with some House quotes, because that's my half-baked theme:

Dr. Gregory House: Fine. I'll ask one of my other friends.
Dr. Wilson: Huh...
Dr. Gregory House: What? You're saying I've only got one friend?
Dr. Wilson: Uh... and... who...?
Dr. Gregory House: Kevin. In bookkeeping.
Dr. Wilson: Okay, well, first of all, his name's Karl...
Dr. Gregory House: I call him Kevin. It's his secret friendship club name.

Dr. Gregory House: Ah, the Socratic Method. The best way we have of teaching everything-apart from juggling chainsaws.

Dr. Cameron: Men should grow up.
Dr. Gregory House: Yeah. And dogs should stop licking their "workplace-acceptable" euphemism for testicles. It's not gonna happen.
