Classes are DONE!

Yesterday was the last day of classes! Wahoo!!!! I found out yesterday that the only class that I would have had a final in, I got a B so I dont' have to write it!!! So that means I have NO exams! So I am taking the weekend off and then I have all next week to do my planning for 3 week practicum, which is due next Monday.
Last night I had my presentation for my senior Physical Education project (mini thesis) and they presented all of us grads with really nice silver whistles engraved with MUC (Malaspina University-College) PE '07 and on a Malaspina lanyard. The picture is of me in front of my poster :-)
So this afternoon I'm heading off to Victoria with Tyler - we are going on a date night :-) Then tomorrow we are off to the mountain, again. We had so much fun last weekend we thought we'd go on the last day of the season - tomorrow - and it's slush cup up there so that should be fun to watch! Then it's down to work Mon-Thurs and off to Vancouver to see Tyler for the weekend!
Things are wrapping up with school and summer is almost here - and I made it through the semester without any tears!!!! Mom is impressed!
Hope ya'll have a splendid weekend!

DATES!

I'm a little hesitant to post about my dates, yes I said dates, because every time I do it doesn't work out - and I want this one to work out. Oh I'm not superstitious so here goes...

First date: We met for coffee (actually Frappachinos) at Starbucks, went and sat down by the ocean - chatted - went bowling (he beat me once, I beat him once) then we went for SUSHI! Yup, he likes sushi too! It was such a lovely date :) It lasted for 5 hours!

He is handsome, a TOTAL gentleman - I mean TOTAL! He even phones or sends me a text to follow up on a date to say thanks for a great time. How sweet is that?

Seconds date: We made plans last night to go for a hike today so we went up to Ladysmith just after lunch and had a good 2 hour hike! It was a lot of fun and a great opportunity to get to know each other better. Then we were sooo hungry we hit up Subway and brought it back to my parents house (they were out) and enjoyed our late lunch and had a nice little visit after. He heads back to Vancouver tonight, but he's back on Thursdsay and we have plans to go skiiing (me) and snowboarding (him) on Friday and we are going to go see that new movie with Will Ferrel.

Oh and he's really good about calling me - he's gonna phone me later tonight when he's home :) I didn't even ask for him to do that!

I brought my camera with me, but left it in the car when we went on the hike - I was so mad at myself - I could have posted those pics for you all to see :( Oh well I'm sure I can share his picture soon enough.

I think this one is going to be something good.

I got a NANNY JOB

I am so excited! I got a nanny job for this summer. I have always wanted to do this for a summer job, but I have always had a returning summer student job at a local paper mill. I could never turn this job down as I made $24.00 an hour and time and a half on Sundays...oh and worked 12 hour shifts, 48 hours a week! I know...crazy for a student job. But students are only allowed to come back for 5 summers - I was not giving up any of my years. So this is why it hasn't been until this summer that I have been able to do the job I have always wanted. I will be in Tsawwassen this summer with a really nice family and such cute kids! So now I just need to find some friends there! :) If anyone knows anyone in that area that is around my age let me know!
Well, other than that everything has been the same lately, no new boy news...I've hit a dry spell (oh I make myself laugh). School is full force ahead and I'm ok with that, the quicker you do it the quicker it's done.
Toodles!

Need a NANNY?

I want to be your nanny for the summer! Looking for a live-in situation and about $350-$400 a week. I will be a teacher in December so I have had a lot of education (6 years worth) dealing with children. And of course I have babysat :)

Let's see if this generates any interest - just ask away if you are :)

West Edmonton Mall

Well I just got back from Edmonton, West Edmonton MALL that is! I went with two of my girl friends from school - Kyla and Jenn. So here are some pics - It was a BLAST!!! We went to "Build a Bear Workshop" and built bears (Kyla made one for her boyfriend Chris - the Toronto Maple Leafs is the one she made. I made the pink dressed one for me, and the baseball one for Bryan) We also saw a show about penguins and other sea life. The picture of the big red waterslide is one that I actually went down and all I have to say is I was totally violated on the way down...think about it...straight down, going at a rapid speed in water....where might it go??? hmm....I know gross! And I got a total wedgie! I think the life gaurd may have thought I was wearing a string bikini after I got off that slide! The big pool is the wave pool (pic taken when it was closed) it was A LOT of fun! I got thrown around so much I flashed a boob at one point and didn't realize it right away...hilarious! Ok the ugly dresses ...well they were just hideous so we had to take pics! Oh and we are all dressed up because we wanted to go out for a nice dinner and it was Jenn's birthday the next day! Good times! Ok well I think that explains most of the pics that need explaining. Enjoy! I did!

Ski Sunday









Well today I tested out my new skis! I switched from snowboarding to skiing because I just wasn't catching on after about 4 years of trying. I think I gave it a good go! So I went up Mt. Washington, here on Vancouver Island, with my brother Scott and his girlfriend Megan. She used my snowboard. I wish I could post some of the videos we caught, but I'm on a Mac and I don't know how to change the file types...such a bummer! So here are a few pictures from the day.
