So they were supposed to tell me yesterday about the scholarship and i heard nothing so i am assuming i wasn’t chosen.  Who knows though. they weren’t very organized.  Kinda sad and depressing though.  I am sure it was because the interview went bad…i kinda, maybe argued with the guy a few times and then when they asked me if i would join a rotary club after i wouldn’t anwwer because i would rather die than join that group.  i blew the interview.  Oh well. The guy was a total dick and spending a month two ant-social 50 year olds is not my dream.

I do feel relieved.  Dan and i can now start to calmly plan our trip to Chiapas at Christmas. 

This weekend i explored my neighbourhood and discovered there was more to it than prostitutes and hemp stores.  Three blocks from my house is a small business section which reminds me of Montreal.  THere is a Bacon..the trendy ukrainian fusion food restaurant with a great patio, a wool store, a book store and few other small shops.  It was fun to hang out on Sunday and check out the stuff.  I know i shouldn’t like when they gentrify neighbourhoods but i really like being able to get good coffee near my home from someplace that isn’t starbucks.
