It Begins...

Well, It's started. My exodus from the west is near. I recently recieved official letters indicating that I was registered in the Master of Architecture program at the University of Toronto, and had not botched things up by failing to meet all of the requirements.
So after what has been a whirlwind 18 months I'm trying not to turn into a giddy school boy even though that is exactly what is bubbling under the surface. I'm stupid with excitement, and only really lame words like glee, giddy [already used] and gay[the old kind], seem to be available. I'm at a loss for good vocabularly- yet adjectives starting with 'g' seem to be dripping from my lips.
So I am wading waist deep in the steps which have to be taken to actually get myself across Canada, and ready for school. Thankfully one of my best friends has found a diamond in the rough for me in the form of a sweet one-bedroom apartment just minutes from school. I just got the photos yesterday and it looks like I have a great home waiting for me in the annex [whatever that is].
Yes I'm entering the land of one way flights and last time checkups at the optometrist and dentist. I'm off to Toronto and I couldn't be happier.

PS. Thanks to my brother Mike Beltzner and his invaluable help in getting this blog off the ground.
