long story short...je fatigue

Its almost 1 in the morning and Im awake making bread.
Its been too long since ive posted so i may forget a few details.
Travelling from BC to Quebec was a heck of a long day especially going without sleep for two nights. But we finally made it. Some of us were missing a few suitcases but they arrived shortly after. Mine inluded.
The new PL is really nice and it seems like she knows her stuff. Im not too fond of the province right now but Im sure it will grow on me especailly with the new job im working at.
I will be travlling around the region collecting old recyclable appliances. So i get to driv ein a truck all day which shouldnt be too bad.
Ive got to cut it short but ill expand when i have more time!

so long british columbia...untill next time

As my last day of work comes to a close. I think back at all of the things i have learnt and it is such an honor to have been through it all.

This weekend will consist of packing and cleaning. Monday we head to Nanoose Bay for a debriefing camp before heading to Nanaimo at 4am Wednesday morning to catch a plane and continue the journey to Quebec.

My next post will be from a new time zone

true examples

I began volunteering at ValleyLinks at the end of September. When I first started they had just moved into their brand new office and were still in the middle of renovations. The staff did an excellent job of welcoming me to their team, and since it was a new start for them it kind of felt like I was starting right along with them. Over the 3 months I have spent my time with them, they have taught me so many new things. The growth of their community is so important in their minds and they do the best to ensure it. Their minds are full of ideas and dreaming up new ways to promote kindness and helping others in the community using technology and other methods. I would just like to take the time to thank each and every person from ValleyLinks for having me in their office.

Bev, Adda, Tyler, Sarah, Annie and the rest of the volunteers are true examples of what kindness is in our community.

whoa.. Happy New year i guess.....8 days later

Ive been busy actually working at work. My coloring book is coming to a close as i finish my last day tomorow.

New years eve we went to visit our jolly katimavik friends in Lake Cowichan. With all 3 groups there it made for an alright time. Maybe not the best New Years eve ive had but it was fun. Devon and myself had some interesting conversations throughout the night making it very eventful.

The weekend following we visited Mt washington to descend down a hill in a rubber tube. WOO
Standing in line for about 20 minutes then another 5 to get up the hill and about 30 seconds to come down I managed to fit in a whole 4 rides of this tube in a span of 3 hours... Likely wont be doing that again in the near future. I had fun anyways, probably the fact that some friends were there and it was a nice day outside.

I have no resolution. kind of sad. maybe i will recycle more...or... run a marathon.. or... write a book. Screw it. I have no new years resolution. Who needs it, ill do what i want :)

Its a beautiful day in the valley. liekly very cold in brandon which makes me greatful to be on a snowy west coast. But! im going to miss this place. In 6 days ill be boarding a plane to quebec. More snow. More coldness. More francophones.
My goal in Shawinigan is to find Jean Chretien. Wish me luck.
