Just an update to everyone about my summer. Originally, I was hired by Talisman Energy for the summer to work as a Geophysics Summer Student. Everything was great, and I was planning on being in Calgary for the summer. Then Cameco phoned. I was unaware that because I received the Cameco Scholarship for Geological Sciences that I was guaranteed a job with them for the summer. After my pseudo-interview with Cameco they told me I had the job if I wanted it. So I made the stressful decision to work in Northern Saskatchewan (without holidays, and living out of a tent) instead of Calgary(can you say STAMPEDE?). So for those of you who don't know, I am starting with Cameco on May 15, and I will be flying to the Great White North on May 24 (tentatively). I may get one week off in the middle of summer, but I feel this is a really great opportunity for me to gain some valuable field experience.
P.S. I am currently studying for finals (can't you tell, two posts within an hour) which are going pretty good. I had one last Thurs., one on Mon., and I have three remaining (21st, 23rd, 26th). Wish me luck!

I really think you should come back in "bush man" mode. It would probably scare the bejezus out of me though.
Hey Clint, you are going to love the North. Terry would tell you that. (well, you will love most of it) And just think of all the money you will save not attending the STAMPEDE. Gpa. and I have been twice - you will get there soon enough. We waited until our 10th Anniversary for the first trip. Can hardly wait for more blogging. Good stuff! Gma. Jean
