I accidentally skipped a day of blogging. Here is my update!
December Ninth:
I tried to wake up early but that failed so I woke up late and finished my creative writing project. I drove to school and dropped it off then went to Jefferson's (actually this whole code name thing is getting annoying so scratch that) I went to Jeremy's and picked up him and Harley and we drove to Stanley Park. We went for literally like a 2 and a half hour walk, but by this time the sun was starting to slowly go down and it was freezing out. So I pretty much froze but it was worth it. We had a great time and had a good chance to talk. Harley was adorable! She is a black lab cross rottweiler. It was really nice. When I dropped him off he gave me a big hug and I was so happy. I really respect him and how he is not a creep or trying to be a certain way or trying too hard or rushing anything. It's refreshing to be able to spend time with someone and just enjoy it and enjoy getting to know each other. I am happy!
After that I drove to north van (again! ) and met up with my grandpa aunt and dad at park royal. Then we went to the Capilano Suspension Bridge which was so cool! Need I say more? Afterwards they drove to Port Moody and I drove home to meet up with my mum and get ready for dinner. We went to the Boathouse for my aunt's 40th and it was such good food! It was a nice night.
December Tenth:
This morning I worked from 12-5. I am really getting into the rhythm of work and it's not so bad. Tiring yes, but not awful. Even fun at times. After that I came home and my mum and I drove to Burnaby to the Finnish Church for their annual christmas party. We have gone every year since I can remember and we met up with my aunt and cousin. I am so glad I went. I have been feeling a little out of touch with God lately and when Jukka (the pastor) said the prayer I got so emotional. It was also cute to see all the little kids in the christmas play and singing and stuff. We got to eat rice pudding and pulla (bread) and also I am adding this as an afterthought but really it's the thing I wanted to say first but I felt like I should go in order. Also maybe it seems a little odd since I was just talking about another guy and I don't want to seem flaky or like I just jump all over the place, but really who cares. At the church there was a guy and I swear it was love at first sight. And now I am sad because he was only here for 3 months from Finland. And seriously like I have never experienced a moment quite like that. Our eyes met and the whole two hours we kept glancing over at each other. And now he's going back home. Maybe one day I will see him again when I go to Finland. How freaky would that be! Tomorrow morning I am going to church because I really want to see him again. But then it's weird because he doesn't live here and Jeremy does so really it shouldn't matter. But then my mum said to me "what if he's the one" and I got freaked out. So she said we should definitely go to church tomorrow. Guess that's it for now.
