		<description><![CDATA[It was such a picturesque day in wintery Fort Langley that I could not resist shooting an icicle melting away in the sun, as water dripped downwards from it like a leaky faucet in a down town crack-house. They were pretty, and neat, to watch becuase we do not get icicles that often here in the Metro Vancouver area, so it was a "stand and stare" moment for me. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So much has gone on with me in the last four days, that even I cannot laugh it off, and I still have so much more to do. Right now I am living off of just a couple of hours of sleep as the wind storm from last night kept me up. The power outage from the storm, with the pounding rain and tree branches hitting my roof, sleep was just not going to happen so I stayed up. But I was tired before that too. Perhaps I should just start at Friday, and finish off my post with today's events. You, reader, should be clear once I have itemised my last few days.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yikes, waking up this morning and looking at the calendar seeing September on it sure was a shock. I was just getting used to August, and all of a sudden the month is over. Shock! This is the part where I think to myself, “Where has the time gone.”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes a lack of knowledge is a very painful thing. When you think you know the answer, and you begin to move forward with that knowledge, and then you are forced to stop becuase you do not have all of the knowledge needed, the heartbreak of not being able to finish can be self-crushing. It is like when you took on the job with only half of the necessary tools you needed to finish it, and everyone has to stop to rethink the problem, this can very frustrating and sobering at the same time. But worse yet, what if you were purposely not given all of the tools, perhaps becuase of a hidden agenda, or you were a threat to someone else's position in the network?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think "frustration" is the best word to describe this week so far, but only pertaining to my work, as the rest of my daily activities  are "awesome" for lack of a better word. Do not get me wrong, I am loving what I do, and everything else for myself is going great there, but it is what I am doing, the reaction from my co-workers, that is causing some heartaches in the work environment. I have been asked to take on a little side project, which is preparing the website for the company. I have total control over its content, and my guidelines are very general. The effect on the rest of the staff is huge though so tension is mounting.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today, not only being the first day of June, but is also the first trip shopping using only BC Transit as my means of transportation. I have to say that it was a resounding success, accept for a minor inconvenience, it rained like crazy on my home, but this could easily be overlooked as not being long term problem. I was really impressed with this. The round trip took 41 minutes from leaving my door to returning back home. This includes the short wait at the bus stop, the actual shopping in Walnut Grove, and riding the bus home and walking to my door at home.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow, trying to adjust to all these new and sudden changes to my daily lifestyle has really started to take a toll on my energy levels. The impact of work, or more precisely, taking transit, has left me with taking cat-naps when ever I get them. It seems no matter how hard and try and sleep, I still cannot force my body to sleep during these new hours, and waking up is like pure torture - brain is up, but body wants to go back to bed. I thought after a couple of day I would just smoothly slide into this new routine, but I do not seem to be no where close to fully adjusting to it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now that I am using the transit system, again, it does not appear to be as bad as I thought it would be, but time will tell. I did take transit many many moons ago, back in the days when I first moved to Fort Langley. Back then, I had no vehicle, so I had no choice but to take transit then until I earned enough money to buy one, but that took a while. So I used the bus system a lot.]]></description>
