Happy Hallmark Day!

So, here I am, updating every two weeks, and wondering why no one is reading this... Not that there is any excuse but I am very busy, what with work placement and real work and school; I am just constantly on the go, and if I'm not, then I'm working on something for one of the three.
Well, I went for a beautiful hike up near Lowville yesterday and I'm feeling it in my ankles and my throat today. I'm not so sure that someone as burnt out as I am should go outside, because I think I've made myself sick. My throat has been completely dried out, and the vast quantities of liquids that I've been consuming have done nothing but cause me to spend a ridiculous amount of time in the bathroom. And it's always a pleasure as a receptionist, when you're losing your voice and it hurts to talk, because there is no rest for the weary, or perhaps just sick as I am today.
Anyway, back to my walk. I went with the boyfriend, who took a million or so pictures, which you can see here. We hiked for about 2 hours, and about 3 kms or so, which is decent, but not lethal. Then, we warmed up but heading over to the Lowville Bistro. We had the soup of the day- Potato Bacon, which was fantastic. When I have a minute, I have every intention of trying to find a recipe for that. We also had some fantastic sandwiches. It warmed us up and was just an all around pleasant experience. So, if you're in the Lowville area, make sure you take a stop by the Bistro.
Today, I'm having a stressed out day, because I have misplaced a bunch of my work which I need for this week, so I'm running behind. They give us ridiculously large assignments to do, knowing full well we have no time during which to do them. And to think we pay them for this service. *sigh* So, I'm stressed about that, as well as the closer I get to the end of the school year, the more I realize that I need to begin the job hunt. And it's not easy looking. Online is almost useless. It is literally impossible to find listings for an ECE on monster.ca I look and look, but no matter what version of child care worker or daycare worker or ECE or even teacher I put in, I end up with military positions and accounting firms and financial planner positions. Workopolis turns up some better results. I prefer Canada's job bank in the end, though. I don't know why, but it always seems to have the best and most extensive listings. Anyway, I can search these jobs all I want, I still have to re-do my resume. And I just don't have time. Maybe I will once I graduate, but frankly, I'd like to get a head up on all those others who will be looking for jobs at their graduation. I'd rather be one of a few than one of a million.
Life is stressful.
Oh, and it's Valentine's Day, so enjoy your Hallmark holiday. I, for one am just hoping my dad keeps up with his tradition of buying chocolates for the whole family, because that's really my only potential this year.
Have a good one.
