Dear Friends,
I lasted 2 days of that job. First of all my paperwork was incomplete, not my fault my shit was done. Which I take as a bonus, it sucked it was disorganized and I was mistreated. I had nowhere to put stuff. No formal tour didn't meet my boss. I couldn't have handled 6 months of it. I was supposed to do data entry but their data didn't work I didn't collect it or have any info. I was told nobody else knew either so don"t think too hard. I didn't it was screwed. They mixed up their samples not my fault. They don't communicate there at all. I said buddy system and they told me we weren't diving, technically we were. Lesson learned scientists and government don't communicate, because the scientists don't communicate together. So all the info I need to know. They have good resources there though and we have to go North, so maybe I'll be back.
I didn't have a password I kept getting locked out the girls asked me about GIS and mapping. So I played engineer started organizing things in my dungen room, the engine room. I got really stressed out and had a nervous breakdown combined with the previous emotional stress from the loss of my grandpa and Taylor. I think I had a seizure, I used to get them as a child. I was cooped up in the hospital in winnipeg for a week. I Finally I am back home in London and taking it easy for the summer, and who knows how long. Its where I need to be. Not ready for going out yet, and just visits quiet activities I can;t drink with my meds.
Peace Friends!
Love KAr

If Dr. Spencer Reid were to Profile me.......I think I would be a collector.
This is a preview. I collect STUFF, even if I don't have somewhere to put it, or something to put inside it. I will be back tomorrow. I just need a break, I have been out of university too long, and it broke my schoool summer routine I was in a bad rutt, but I think I am ready. I want to go out in the field and the lab is going to be good for me.
My nest....stocking up...you have to be prepared to ADAPT. Or you cannot Evolve.
Ok where were we? A lot has went on in 2 days so bear with me I am out of the cacoon but I need my nest. It's a bat cave down here, I am way at the back but the kitchen and the bathroom and laundry are all right by me. It is like a port house. Before I said every room I have ever had was always bigger than my room, which was a kind of a lie. The reason I don't pack light, is that I want to take everything I need to make it my bed and my home its my nest. Every bunk, Every cabin, Every Boat, Every Room, I just do what I got to do to make it my home. I have always wanted a house boat so I can just sail, float see where it takes me. So much fun. That's why boats were fun but scary cause you never knew where you were gonna end up and how losing you were gonna be when you would get to go back and get your sock or whatever you left behind, if you would go back on the boat again. The adventure, I felt like a pirate sailing around Vancouver Island it was my own treasure isle and I was Jack Sparrow, out of the locker I flipped the boat but I didn't have the Black Pearl so I was lost at sea but it's where I needed to be.
Winnipeg is dry, its hard to breathe guys I can feel it. I'm coughing up a storm. I took a walk to campus yesterday, and lets just say it was challenging. The houses here are cute, its like its a port, and I need a compass thank god for my Iphone (and an extra props to Steve Jobs) I need to find TRUE NORTH. I feel like an axolottle or something, coughing and needing water all the time. The streets loop like a maze I know the university is there but you can't cut through and take the shortcut which is what i like to do. I have to cross the highway to get to work, no more J walking, it really is illegal. What happend to the Guelph way when we just used to rule the roads and cars just stopped? ALSO, Shellie's friend gave me Kernals Salt and Vinnegar Popcorn. WINNING.
Nothing is ever easy, so if something is simple keep it simple stupid (K.I.S.S.) and don't take it for granted. A Microwave is just something that needs to be easy. I am not a planner, well I can plan but I like to leave that up to engineers, I am a biologist i need to just do it. I need to jut be able to go and grab whatever I want to eat and make it, I would tell mom what I ate she would just think why doesnt Karleen make good meals. Because it gave me something to do and relax eat macaroni and tomates, and deserts, watch tv, do the dishes (when I needed to do them).
Shellie took me and Yuka to Superstore and gave me an hour. I wanted a coffee, and the hot deli didn't have it, what kind of Superstore was that. Any who. I made the most of it and just grabbed everything i needed but still got sidetracked but I did it all. Uncle Ben's makes bistros but with a bowl, its amazing, and just so much cool stuff like that I found, cereal that was like reeses but it has lemurs on the box. How cool is that. I got all the frozen food i needed, the necessities, COFFEE. No filters, thats what a paper towel is for. So yeah I forgot things but, I can always go back and it will be my break. But I shouldn't have to buy anything for a while I splurged and it was worth it. I got a free friggen camp chair, its a DIRECTOR's chair. I know it was a lot but. I am just stocking up. Winnipeg is nice right now. But we know it's just the calm before the storm. It is not paradise, cannot get lost in the illusion it is a mirage. I am land locked. Stupid VEGAS, put a dolphin in the friggen desert, but you know what thats cause it is full of tricks its a casino it rakes in the dough. Don't get fooled again!-Horatio Cane! I was a carni....BAZINGA. There is no sea but theres a way out of here to the treasure, just cannot get the X. A river leads you to something, an estuary gives you salt and freshwater at the same time, water always meets land. You can never have one thing without another you just need to focus and not get sidetracked. Profile your surroundings at all time, CRIMINAL MINDS, and watch out for UNSUBS you need to catch the bad guy. The world is a beautiful place and it needs to be saved.
I gotta go make a lunch and relax and prepare for tomorrow. Who knows what I am going to need.

The Travel to Winnipeg.
JUNE 16th
I am trying to unpack my room cause I really brought as much of my room as I could cause my room is always my place that keeps me going. In fact every room I have ever lived in is bigger than my room at home, and I have too much stuff for it. You guys just seem to really want to know whats going on and I have to tell you and there are too damn many of you to tell each of you so here's the blog.
Those suitcases just sat there unfilled well i kept trying to figure out how the hell to get what I wanted in there I knew what I needed, but I wanted more.............I couldn't pack....FINALLY CAM JUST SAID WANT ME TO DO IT? If you want to. So mom and I left to do the last minute shopping. It was just so easy, went to Wal-mart, got everything I needed even found skorts on 2 for 20, (after I told my mom don't let e even look at clothes) and you know me, couldn't pass it up. Got the books I've been wanting to buy for a long time, found a lap desk which I've always wanted. Told myself KAR just stop buying things already you just need to get the hell out of here. Went to BULK BARN got candy!! In a span of 2 hours we were very efficent
I even friggen interacted with Nazem Kadri that day....he yelled at me but I still felt honored lol I am such a dork, I wanted his autograph so bad lol but some how thats even better.
I came home and Cam had it done and he said it took like 10 minutes, and I didnt even question it. I knew he did it right. So i did it packed kept, but I just kept going back in to my room grabbing every stupid little dolphin or fish I could and a piece of everyone to bring with me. My parents friend "Uncle" Gary came over to say goodbye to me and gave me an M&Ms meat gift card, he owns 3 of them!! It rocks I always liked having those kind of meals in school they are just better lol. I just kept packing and tucking for another couple hours and then Cam opened a beer and was like oh this is good after my hard work and I was like do I deserve it? So he opened the fridge and gave me one. I kept going and would take a sip every like 10 minutes like the longest beer of life it kept me going till brought all the suitcases up and put them at the door.
FRIDAY JUNE 17th.
I woke up watched Regis had breakfast, etc. Regis sang when a man loves a woman with Micheal Bolton. My "brother" cam's friend James came over he was coming to London anyways, but it was still nice. Went out for lunch with Grandma Sharon, Grandpa Ron wasn't home but that's because he was fishing, so that's the only excuse I can accept! HAHA! She had a travel bag that just gave me the little extra handle and space I needed. I went back home to pack the car and Cam and James were there again chillin. I Gave Christy and Mayzee some real good pats and treats. Even went next door to Rob's to tell him I was leaving. We got in the car and then I'm like I gotta go to the washroom first and my parents just said lets just go to Flying J. So we did and I just went and didnt bother looking at anything cause I would have got distracted when we got out my mom put a killer whale necklace on my and I felt like it was like I had won SURVIVOR or something like its my immunity.
The car ride was kinda quiet my parents were discussing something. I just looked at things like oh there's that place I stopped on my way home for a stupid interview, there's GUELPH, and then we were in Hamilton, how many times have I came here for an interview. It's almost like I was supposed to leave out of there, like they didn't want me, I wasn't good enough, no I'm better, they were not good enough for me there is something better. I took a couple things off the board about Hamilton, and one of them was about a Journey. Take it Hamilton! After I went through security, I was just going to sit then I noticed there were key chains about the day I was born so I took May 22. But we keep saying June 16th, like I left 3 years ago the same time, so I read it and I bought it too. Then I went to sit down and just waited anxiously till it was time to board. A guy sat down with a box that said clearwater.ca and I just stared at it......I had to know.....what is in there. So finally I just asked, and he was like Lobsters, and I just shook his hand and said I am a Marine Biologist and told him where I was going and what I was doing he asked me where I was from and where I went to school. It was so cool. I felt like I was on fire! I had a long line for the plane and when I got on there I knew I was near the back cause I had 22 F. I hoped nobody would be beside me cause thats like my seat my thing I just take up the whole bench and watch tv and chill. I was annoyed bc I had to pass everyone, but I couldn't stop smiling, the flight attendant just winked at me and came and got my bag and put it above for me. Nobody was there I had my seat I had the lapdesk I was in the zone took of my seatbelt, stretched out it, Criminal Minds Marathon on the tv it was Reids Birthday! It was just like omg wtf. The guy came by again to give me a drink, and just smiled at me with my desk and told me there was a cup holder on the tray and then he saw mine and I just was like yeah I already got it. Then I just noticed a few things on the other tv screen about west jet and one was like WINNIPEG RED RIVER EXHIBITION JUNE 17-26. Then this quote came up: "What was the tallest mountain in the world before Mount Everest? Wait for it........ANSWER: Mount Everest, It just wasn't discovered yet. LEGEND-ARY.
Descended, the guy got my bag for me again, it was ridiculous. I got off the plane went down to go to baggage my landlady, her daughter and friend were all standing there and just said Karleen. Baggage was sooo easy to it was like boom took 5 minutes. The 3 of them just talked and it was just cool, I think Ashley and I are gonna be good friends she's AWESOME! We drove they showed me Superstore! Went through campus, showed me my new home the DFO building. Then we drove to the house, the area is sooooo cute it reminds me of UKEE like wtf is going on its a village. The house is cute its weird with the structure thats going on, my room is what is going to keep me sane! I am un packed just need to organize it right get a system.
I feel like something fishy is going on here I don't know what it is, like nobody seems to care about the fish in the praries I need to help fix something I am not sure what it is or how to do it but I gotta stick around for a bit to find out. I am in the middle of Canada. Closer to my Observers. June is next door in Saskatchewan, Debbie and Tina have Alberta to tackle. Slightly away from my friends and family. But it is going to be worth it.
