Bunch of things happening at once

So... As described in the previous post, a bunch of things are happening at the same time.  School is starting, I'm moving, starting a new job and going traveling!  I'm successfully managing the 'worry factor' and only worrying about what I need to deal with the soonest rather than meticulously planning and stressing over things that are further away (if only by a couple of days).  This doesn't mean that I am not pre-planning, and I wish I was a bit more organized, but I think things are going smoothly so far.

Moving:
Moving truck is rented.  Isaac (bf) and I are moving things ourselves.  We both have the day off and so far, we know that we have to move our stuff out and clean our place before noon on Sept 1.  Moving sucks, but it's necessary!  The noisy people upstairs (known as t-mar and the dogs) moved out today so at least I will be able to concentrate on things without being interrupted by barking, stomping, yelling, etc...  Grr I hate noisy neighbours!

School:
So excited I got my books and started reading one about how to interpret literature.  It has chapters on queer and feminist literature so that's cool!  I haven't looked at the Psychology e-book yet, but I will do that soon! I haven't studied a textbook in awhile, but am planning to read the chapters slowly or in chunks if they're long, make notes and then re-read my most recent notes during each subsequent study session before moving on to the next bit of information.  Seems like it'll be time consuming but I'm really stoked to be able to expand my mind for once.

Job:
Just another office job.  The least of my worries.  It pays more and is in the same building which has a shower so I can cycle to work! I get a day off every two weeks, so I can focus a bit more on school.  I start on Monday.  I probably need to dress a bit nicer, so I will ask Isaac what I should wear.  I hate wearing business casual stuff!  So annoying.  Now that I think back, maybe I should have gotten a part time job...  Options were limited though, so yeah.  Oops.

Trip:
I'm going with my ex/bff (weird combo, I know).  Just figuring out hotels accommodations and places to see.  Got info on good hotels, train passes and some of the places I want to go from him since he works for an airline and he asked his buddies...  I'm going to Tokyo and have been there once in 2007 for 10 days.  I want to see if any famous Japanese bands are playing!

Oh, when I left my old job, this really awesome lady gave me a book called 'zen mind, beginners mind' about the basics of meditation in relation to buddhism I think... Really interested in that too.  Wheeee

Now time to do some hotel booking.
