Westjet, Valentine's Day, and Victoria

Well, the day has finally arrived, tomorrow I am officially off to Vancouver for a glorious spring vacation. Of course, it nothing like a Mexico, and a tan is out of the question, but hey, it's the warmest place in Canada, right? So I plan on doing quite a bit of studying, relaxing, and sleeping. Watching the whales in Vancouver should be priceless, if there are any, I guess. The airport shuttle will be picking me up fairly early tomorrow (0615), so I think it is safe to say I need to go to bed earlier than usual tonight. I have big plans for this trip in British Columbia, that is if the obscenely high taxes don't get to me first. At 14.5% combined PST/GST, I am going to have a serious cramp in my style as far as finances are concerned. My french midterm would have gone a whole lot better if I had had enough time to finish it. Hopefully I will do well on the parts I actually did complete. Still have to pack, gotta run. On a side note, I applied to the Summer Language Bursary Program today, listing my preferences as to where to go as being Jonquière, Université de Quèbec - Chicoutimi, and Université Sainte-Anne in Novia Scotia. Hopefully one of those will work out. My second choice is looking more and more like it should have been my first choice. I like the idea of staying with a French - speaking family. The program starts soon after exams are over. and run until the first week of June as it is five weeks long and 6 or 7 credits. It will take time out of working, but it looks like the chance of a lifetime.
