Welcome to the black parade...

When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city, to see a marching band. He said "son when you grow up, would you be the savior of the broken, the beaten and the damned?" "would defeat them? your demons and all the nonbelievers, the plans that they have made?" "because one day I'll leave you a phantom to lead you in the summer, to join the black parade"

Ok well that was lericks to one of my favorite new songs. It's called welcome to the black parade as the post title says. The band is called my chemical romance. A really cool song. As you can probably tell it has special meaning for me. I guess the obvious thing here is that it reminds me of my own father. I remember my father taking me to various military parades. And i always remember him being sentimental at those times. I imagine that at those times he would think about me being all grown up and thinking about the choices and obstacles that i would have to face. But really it makes me think about the time that i actualy spent growing up, and the choices and obtacles i actualy did face. Like the boy in the song i realize that i did indeed have my share of demons and nonbelievers to face and overcome. And to be honest i'm still doing it... But you know what? That song actualy helps me put it all into perspective. So there you go...

Well i wrote my fifth exam for correspondence school tonite. Man it was by far the most savage exam i had to write yet. I was a little disapointed cause i only got 80% this time. There were some killer questions on it. However the questions that took me 10 to 40 minutes to answer i got all right. The ones that seemed straight forward were the ones i screwed up on. But just the same 80% is the worst mark i expected to get so it wasn't all that bad. I know... You're thinking why am i fretting over 80%. I'll tell you why, becase the pass grade is 70% so while it is still a B grade there is no D grade. So the worst grade i could get is a C. So one grade less and I'm getting C's. SO now you understand. At least i hope so. But at least I'm still maintaining an A average. Marks so far are as follows: 3 - 100%s, 1 - 90%, 1 - 80%. So thats not too bad. I'm hoping to get 95% or 100% next time. So there you go...

Well in other news Tracy started her work term monday, and all is going well so far. And also she passed all of her courses. And as it turns out her work term may turn into a permanant postion later. So here's hoping.

As for myself I'm waiting to hear back from the employment center to find out what the next step is for me. Will keep you all informed on this as time goes by.

Really looking forward to these next few months. So keep checking here for any news. Will be talking to you all soon.
