Depressing: You might consider skipping this one.

So my exam for the General Insurance course is coming up next week. I'm feeling horribly under-prepared. I didn't expect it to come up so fast. I just found out about the test like last Thursday. I have to go through everything again. I don't remember anything from the beginning of this course!

It's probably fair to say I'm a little panicked right now. However, my mom seems to be the queen of Studying. It's weird... I went through the first three chapters with Bonnie and barely retained a thing. A couple hours of going over those same chapters with my mom and I'm like an insurance machine. Anyway, I'm going back to Nanaimo again this weekend to study with my sister and my mom.

I don't think I mentioned it, but Bonnie and Nick are moving back to Nanaimo. I have to say, this upsets me. I really liked having Bonnie in Victoria. I always feel like the people I knew from high school are too busy to do anything with. Bonnie work super close, and just lived down the street. Now it's back to all of my family living in Nanaimo and I can't see any of them more than once a month or so.

Nobody ever comes to Victoria. It's like it's too out of the way for anyone to bother. The most I ever see my family is at Nick's football games, and those are all in Nanaimo now.

I don't understand why it's become so hard for me to make friends here. I feel like I'm in elementary school all over again. I wonder if some of it is because I don't like doing the same things that everyone else my age seems intent on doing. I'm not into the bar scene... and I'm definitely not into the male strippers everyone always seems to want to see. I don't even share my shifts at work with anybody. I'm totally alone.

But I have Dan and he makes me happy. He's the only thing that brightens my day at the moment. I'm thankful for that.
