*STILL* no email notifications from LJ showing up in my email. Ugh. I added the LJ notify email to my contacts list, and have emailed Hotmail... no change.
Anyways I was housesitting earlier this week, then in Sudbury for a couple of days so if I've missed any interesting posts please leave me a comment :)
I spent my weekend up in Sudbury. I really didn't think I'd be going back there again but once I was there I had a great time! I got in late Friday night and then stayed up for a while chatting with my aunt and catching up.
Saturday I went to visit an old (not in age just in that I'm not a student anymore) prof of mine who also was my academic advisor. She's going to be a reference for me for my Teacher's College applications and I wanted to actually meet with her so she could have a good impression of who I was now. I think I've grown a lot as a person since I was a student and I just wanted that to factor into the recommendation. She told me that I was a natural born teacher and I really trust her opinion so that's fantastic :)
Then Saturday evening LisaLisa and Rob picked me up and took me out to their house and we ordered a fabulous Toppers Pizza (I miss Toppers!) and watched the 6th Sense. Rob's brother was in town too and had brought up his Nintendo Wii which I'd never played before so we played bowling and tennis and it was so much fun! When they're more affordable/available I so want one!
Sunday I visited my Aunt's father who has just moved into a retirement home. It's actually not too bad and I think he's pretty happy to be there which is nice to see.
Then my friend Taryn and I went out for a coffee and ended up at Bay Used Books (totally my idea lol) and I found a few things I wanted and then she dropped me back off at my Aunt's house in the evening.
From there I was taken out for a really nice dinner and then ended up taking the Monday morning bus home... where I had gang members behind me bragging about killing people... that part of the trip was not so swell. Everything else was lovely.
