I got my license!!! On July 24th. :P I haven't updated in abit. Life has been getting increasingly busy. And i'm loving it!
Last weekend I went to Kamloops with Justin for a soccer tournament. Dear Lord the temperature was 36 degrees at LEAST!! I know the day we got there is was 40 degrees. At least we were camping beside a river. That was nice and refreshing. We didn't do very well. We played three games and all three games we lost. We were equally challanged but every team had at least 3 or more subs. We had one. I'm sure if we had more we would've done better. But from what others have bee nsaying, and my own observation, I brought my a-game to the tournament. I made saves that were all a blur to me. But hey, I saved the ball!! Somedays I love being the goalie. And I love being a goalie for my team. They are always very suppoertive no matter how terrible I do. And my coach Gough is awesome. VERY supportive and he feels like such a father figure. And the whole team are his daughters. Plus he's a registered massage therapist! :D Haha.
On the way home Justin and I stopped at Enchanted Forest! It was a path in the trees that showed fairy tale creatures and whatnot. It was so much fun. I told Justin it was the best date we ever had. He's shocked that nothing really bad happened during because we semi-planned it! :P We tend to be cursed whenever we plan a date together. It has to be random. Perhaps it was our bad luck with hotels and the scary storm we ran into after is where our luck ended. Every hotel that night was No Vacancy. We hadn't planned to drive the entire 8 hours home in one night but with full hotels, that wasn't an option for us. Justin works night shift so at least he was awake enough to do the drive. The just as we left Calgary we were bombarded by a massive storm. The crash of thehail against his windshield jolted me awake. The hail was huge, in clumps, wet and heavy. I was so afraid that the windshield was going to smash. We were convinced there was going to be some type of damge to the car (luckily there wasn't). So the hazards went on and we drove slow for the rest of the way.
So i'm back at work and strengely enjoying it more than usual. I've become really good friends with an older man who works full-time in automotives. His name is Dennis and he's a sweet old man. I get the feeling that he's lonely because his grandson moved north and I haven't heard him mention a wife at all. He insists on driving the women home if its after dark. He feels he can't stress it enough that if soemthing bad ever happened to any of the females at work that he'd feel very bad. I'm not going to argue a free ride home. :P I really enjoy talking to him. He's taken me out for coffee twice this week already. Today he even paid for my meal! He's also bee nsaying that if i'm interested he might sell me his car for $1500. I can't rememberwhat car it was but its from 1994 and its blue. :P He also said that he'd look around for any good deals on more newer cars. I'm so excited. I'm trying to get ahold of my Dad to talk about this but he's enjoying Montreal too much at the moment. :P
My roomie and I are watching a Harry Potter movie everyday this week and then we're going to see the new one in theatres this Sunday. I'm rather excited to see it. :) The roomie and I are also going to see a well known artist next Thursday named Michael Godard. He is called the Rock star of the art world. He looks like he should be in a rock band like Motley Crue. I do believe he is good friends with Vince Neil.
And finally i'm getting my new phone this weekend. FINALLY. I can't even hold a conversation on my phone without it dying. It has to be plugged in. And even then sometimes it doesn't work. -.-' I think i've decided on a blue Blackberry Pearl. I'm really excited to be getting my new phone.
Well that's my life up until now. Definetely much better then the last weeke before I got my license.
P.S. I'm SO excited for college next month! I've been out since mid'April and i'm ready to go back now.
