I done good!

Look at what my Thesis Professor emailed me:

Hi Steve,

I am nominating your thesis to the Ivana Guglietti-Kelly Award for
qualitative research work.

You can get back the copy I marked from Agnes. You then need to submit a
clean copy to Agnes before May 1. Please remind her at that time to
attach to your copy my cover letter and submit it to Undergraduate
Office (rm 292 BSB) before May 1.

Congratulations!

Wow, I can't believe she did that! I've never really been nominated for anything. That's so cool, I guess I will get a good mark. Now I just have to revise it for the millionth time=) If anyone wants me to email them a copy, post me a comment and I will.

Howdy Ya'll!

I found the Internet! Yes, I'm at college library, about a 30 minute walk from my grandmother's. I bet you're all jealous of me, in the fun city of Vegas eh? Well, don't be.
The trip has been very boring. My Grandmother's place is dirty and dusty. There are two dogs in the house as well, and it's really killing me with allergies. We have no car because she smashed it up before we got here, and it's in the shop getting fixed. Our daily trips consist of walking to the grocery store, and that's it. Really, it's sad. Mike is taking me out tomorrow night, so that should add some excitement to this trip. We also have dinner plans with the neighbours who are in their 90's. At least they will provide some interesting, and education conversation.
My Grandmother hates everyone but Ukrainians and Italians. She thinks the Polish are all two faced, German's and rough and rude, Philipeno's want to eat Lana (her dog), Blacks are good... as maids, and Mexicans are dirty and Banditos. She also thinks the neighbour stole her Brazilian perls, was after her husband, and wants to kill her. Oh, and she also thinks that she wants to lock her up in a mental hospital. She doesn't like another neighbours because she's Mexican, but says that she is really Italian.
I can't hold in the laughter anymore at the lunch and dinner table. It's so hilarious.
Also, her dog Lana now weights 128 pounds, and can barely walk. She is so fat and dirty it's sad.
Well, that's been my trip. I hope you're all doing well and having fun. The weather here is great though, sunny and warm.
Post comments, so that I don't feel lonely=)
