So I'm not normally one for celebrity gossip, but I couldn't help but love what came out today. For those who don't know, Kanye West made a derogatory reference to Taylor in one of his songs. When Kanye claimed she gave him permission to use that exact lyric, she denied all claims and of course no one in their right mind would believe Kanye at that point, considering their recent history.
Well, today Taylor's "woe is me" jig is up and it couldn't be sweeter. Today, Kim Kardashian posted on Snapchat many recordings of Taylor and Kanye's exact conversation where she approved the use of the lyric--the exact opposite of what she claimed. I don't particularly like any of these three celebrities, but I'm glad Taylor is finally being exposed for the pity-starved wannabe she is.
Since it's the current trend, I've included a complimentary photo of Taylor:
Hello...it's me.
I'm well into the early half of my (last??) summer vacation, and it's pretty relaxing so far! It's been a little while since I've posted anything. Some exciting/unsure things in my near future that I wanted to briefly share:
1. In September I'll be entering my (hopefully) final year of formal education. That means I'm one huge step closer to entering the real world, entering the workforce, and making my own money. For anyone who knows me, you know this offers what means most to me: long-awaited independence. Independence to manage my own affairs, make my own mistakes (and hopefully some successes too!), and really see what I have to offer to society.
2. Just before that, I'll be traveling abroad semi-on my own (aka without my parents) to Jamaica for a dental outreach trip. I hope to learn a lot through this trip, feel like I'm making some contribution to areas with poorer access to oral care, and to maybe even have a little fun. It'll be my first time having Jamaican food; again, those who KNOW me know how important that is to me.
3. Still figuring out where life will take me after my anticipated convocation in June 2017. Some options:
a) Associate locally immediately
b) Northern Ontario government-subsidized associateship (?) programs
c) US residency
All exciting options, each with their pros/cons. Trying to go with the flow and get by efficiently. This means evaluating my options carefully to make sure appealing options stay available to me as long as feasibly possible. It's likely a result of the distance away from the misery that is school/clinic, but I'm in one of those rare optimistic moods. Grateful for where my life currently is and trying not to waste everything that's been invested to get me to this point.
