(no subject)
I'm actually in a very happy place right now.
I had an awesome birthday, what I remember anyways, followed by an awesome weekend. First the class of the symphony, and then the walk home in the absolute pouring rain. We were dressed to the nines and SOAKED. It was actually quite funny, Mike and Caleb in their suits just dripping. :P Then, Mike and I went to the fish hatchery in Capilano and I died. It was SO cool. I know I'm the biggest loser in the world for even admiting this but I think salmon are actually quite neato. We watched them jumping up the fish elevator and then watched them leaping about in the river. It was fabulous. (I know I'm such a moron, but the Cannery has f'd me up). Then we spent a rainy afternoon doing crosswords, making dinner and drinking wine. It was simple and lovely.
This week has been rather uneventful, but I kinda like it. Work is less hectic, because there are less tourists to deal with. We just do school programs and I spend the afternoons cleaning or decorating for halloween. Its a slower pace, but I'm enjoying the break. Its also kinda causing me boredom, so I do miss the frantic days filled with programs and public tours. Its different, and I won't say its worse but I definately won't say its better. We'll see how thing progress.
I have this weird homesick but not sensation inside me. I really miss my family ALOT and I miss alot of my friends, but at the same time I have no desire to be back in Victoria. I love it there, but I feel like it doesn't have much left to offer me. This raises a predicament, because I want to be home, spending lots of time with my family and friends, but I don't actually want to be at home. Balls. Well, regardless, I'm going to be home for basicaly the entire month of December, so, ready or not, Victoria will be home for another month. I'm kinda torn about the whole thing, but am trying to look at it purely positively. It will be good to see you all.
Send your positive energies because I truly think it helps me. <3
