A little while ago, the department that supports my blog (Communications and Public Relations) asked me to be in a short commercial for Vancouver Island University. It was a lot of fun, and I wanted to give my readers the first glimpse. It will be airing on A Channel for a couple of months.

Commercial
One week to go! I was at the university today, running a few final errands. I had some photocopying to do, and I went down to the Student's Union building, and bought my semestre bus pass. The Student's Union Handbook and Dayplanners aren't in yet, but the lady at the desk assured me that they'd be there next week.

Winding Down
There are only a couple weeks left before the Fall semestre begin, and I'll have to go back to school! I'm basically thrilled. I'm one of those people who love school. When I'm finished my BA (which should be this year) I'm going to attempt the education program so I can become a teacher. Haha, I'm going to be in school for the rest of my life!
I'm writing this from a floating house, on a salmon farm in Quatsino Sound, but if you've been following my blog through the summer, you've already read about that. This is my last eight-day shift up here! When I get back on Thursday night, all I have left to do before the seventh is enjoy the last days of summer (except for going to campus, and getting my bus passes, and visiting a degree advisor). You'll probably see me celebrating at Level 2 this Saturday night!
I'm going to try to spice my blog up this year with a little video. I'll tell you more about that later, but for now, I'll just say that you may see me from time to time in the quad with a video camera.
Enjoy your last days of relaxation, or work, or prep, or whatever you're doing!
See you soon!

Text Books
Our text books are in at the book store now. I like to try to get in as early as I can, and beat the line ups. Also, I'm slow reader, so I like to knock a couple novels off before classes start. Does anyone else do that or am I the biggest keener around?
These are the books I've read so far. Well, I'm halfway through one of them. Some early science fiction, some classical Greek, and a historical fiction by Marilyn Bowering (who teaches creative writing at VIU).
I have to admit that I've had the reading list for my scientific romance class for months already, because it's a directed study; otherwise I never would have been able read that many by now. Doing a directed study is a great idea, by the way. If you can find a prof who's interested, you write the syllabus with them, and get full credit for one-on-one work!
Good luck with text books and registration everyone! We've got one month of summer left; let's make the best of it!
