it has been a while - crazy start to 2008

ok so I have yet to fall of the face of the planet, I swear! However 2008 started off a very interesting year.

It started with my bus ride out here. Everything went ok on the first leg of the tip. (until we arrived at Brandon for lunch. It was there that we found out that the bus we came in on was broken and that we would have to take a different bus to Regina. We where held up for an hour and a half. The bus we ended up in was half the size as the gray hound bus we started in- so needless to say it was a cramped 6 hour ride. It was in these 6 hours that i met... let us call him crazy Steve... now crazy Steve- so i was told was a diamond miner from bc. All he did was talk! and when he wasn't talking he was sleeping which meant he was half leaning on me ! let's just say i was happy to get to Regina and away from him for the last leg of the trip !

Once I got back to the port Drake and Carman met me at the bus stop and took me back to their place for the first week of mod (thanks guys for a great week) My mod was very interesting. as well as extremely laid back! so nice haha :)

Right after our mod's ended- classes started. I have decided to sit in on a class on the Gospel of John to fill some of the stupid amount of free time i have on my hand this term. It is a very odd feeling knowing you are in your last term of school- it is starting to all hit home - This past Monday i got my grad pictures done - it's all really odd.....

Oh the weekend I went to Regina and hit best buy to pick up my new wireless keyboard ( thanks kev for the help) - and had sweet day out with the girls:)

It was also this weekend that a young girl that often came to Joe's place passed away .. from an illness she had been fighting for years. So today i was at her funeral for most of the afternoon-- it was a wonderful celebration of her life - yet a big reminder that our life here on earth is so very short...

So as you can see it has been a crazy start to 2008 !
I will update again soon - right now i need to go watch more heroes !
Take care!
