school tomorrow

I'm normally not the type to overemphasize things, but this past long weekend (last for the summer) was seriously the best weekend I've had all year. Each day was better then the last.

On friday I took a group of frosh for a tour around downtown. I only really got lost once, although once that happened, my group was convinced I didn't know the way back to ocad. Poor froshies. It was a long walk too. We went from Dundas to Yonge, to Queen to Spadina up through China town to Kensington, Across College and back down McCaul. Then after that I went over to Jim & Marsha's place to help install some carpet. Needless to say, we only got started, and the carpet didn't get finished until noon on monday, but that's another story in itself. I guess installing carpet doesn't sound like the most fun in the world, but the part that I really like is just going over and hanging out. Jim and Marsha are always talking about how they want to create a sense of home and community, and I couldn't agree more. I love it over there. You immediately feel like family. I'd rather spend my time over there then trying awkwardly to "bond" with people from class any day. That's not to say I want to alienate myself from people I'm called to love, but you need fellowship too.
On saturday I went to the ex. Good fun. I'd never been before, so I had quite the time. I'll have to post a pic or two later. It was EXciting, EXhilarating. I just like the name. Had swiss waffles and saw butter sculptures. Saw lots of arts and crafts booths too. It was rather EXceptional just walking around in the sun. And we met a giant cow. I agree. talking over tea was good too. unstressed me a little as well.

Sunday night church was church that we had on the beach. I taught trish how to skip her first stone. yay. and bon fires at night make me so happy. There is just something about being outside singing songs to God, and listening to the greatest story ever told. around a warm fire. There is something timeless about it. ahhh bonfires. what more can I say.

And finally on labour day itself. I helped Trish and kitty move in. Kind of tiring, but a good tired. Making the bed was fun too, It was like putting together a large lego toy. and I got to go out with her family for pho. yummm. Then at night we had another (even better) and homemade meal with roast beef. And blueberry cheesecake for dessert. For Jim's birthday. He is old. :p And watching a movie was fun too. Probably not really the movie itself (agent cody banks) but to rest after a long day, and knowing that I'll be able to come over more often and just hang out with everyone. feels like home

Interview tomorrow, working on my portfolio and resumé all day. and trying to declutter the old apartment a bit for school. Kind of nervous about the interview, but I'm sure I'll do ok. It'll be good practice whatever the result.

classes start tomorrrrrow!!!
