I'm alive...

I should have posted earlier, but I kept putting if off. So yes, I am alive, and keeping very busy! It's been great to have Luke back at KLBC again. Nicole, Gordie, and I picked him up at the airport the Friday after classes started. It was pretty fun, and we got to be on tv too, because one of the guys from Team Canada was flying in right after Luke's flight. There were 5 or 6 tv cameras there, so that was exciting, especially because it looked like we were waiting for this hockey guy, and we weren't. Nicole manage to get his autograph too. lol Fun times. :)

So the following night we had a party for Luke. It was pretty fun, and it was great to see a bunch of KLBCers from last year. The game of snow soccer was awesome! Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. It was sad when they all had to leave. I really miss the group from last year.

Most weekends have been busy. We went to Crystal's house for one of them. ("We" being Deanna, Luke, Gordie, and myself) I think we were only there for 27 hours or something, but it was a lot of fun. Ever heard of the game "Hit and Run"? It's a PS2 game with the Simpsons...let's just say that Luke really enjoyed it...one of those games where you can just randomly beat up civilians. Here he is...beating up an old woman.

We played some games, made some pie, visited the General Store, the West Montrose covered bridge, and went to the St. Jacobs Farmer's Market. Unfortunately we missed the cow auctions. Not that we planned on buying a cow, but they're supposed to be fun to watch. It was a great weekend.

There were some issues at home for a while. Just over two weeks ago my little sister ran away from home. I'm glad to say she came back on Saturday, though things will be tough at home for a little while. If you think about it, then she can use your prayers right now. Just that she would be content with what she has, and that she would open her eyes to see how focused she is on herself. I really hope things get worked out soon.

I was able to go home this weekend because we had our first Performing Arts Group performance in Orillia on Sunday evening. Luke came with me, and aside from boring him to death on a shopping trip, the weekend was good. Played some nintendo, watched a couple of movies, had Melanie's birthday party, then went to Orillia. The performance went very well, especially after the way the practices had gone. Oh! Dennis and Val had their baby!! So congratualtions to them! :D Dennis had to miss our first two full-out practices because of it, but things went well considering. Now we just need to do some fine tuning...a lot of fine tuning actually.

Well, that's basically been my past month. I'm still struggling with my school work and motivating myself to get work done. Things should get better after this week. I just have a little bit to get caught up on. We have a bunch of modular courses coming up in the next couple of months. It's going to be a lot of work, but I'm looking forward to some of them. I hope I'm able to keep up with everything. I'll have drama, the Performing Arts Group, yearbook, Bible reading, and all my class readings and assignments, PLUS socializing time. :P It's just going to get busier and busier. Anyhow, I'm off to get some reading done. God bless!
