Two Years Later...

Hello strangers. I can and cannot believe that it has been this long since I've last written (or typed) anything here. I'm under no illusion that anyone will still be reading this, as the fad seems to have passed somewhat. Time has flown, and I seem to have flown around with it.

I'm now in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, teaching at the Comprehensive High School here. I love the students that I have; there is so much potential in each of them. I've found a church, though that wasn't dificult: the Baptist church is right across the street from my apartment. I've made a few friends, no one extremely tight but an option or two for a girls' night out. I enjoy living here, though I miss the business of Calgary on occasion, and my friends there daily. It's very nice to be closer to home, so I can spend the weekend there if I want to (or if I need my mom's cooking!)

I just returned from England, visiting family and friends. It really was an escape from reality; when I was there, work and school just did not exist. Coming back to the school Wednesday was good, though my brain still didn't believe that summer hadn't started. I may have to keep my holidaying to the summer months, just so that I don't confuse myself any further!

I've posted some pictures from my trip up under the google picasa albums, and I can send an invite to whomever, as long as I have your email address. Drop me a line if you're interested. It's not as if there is anything risque, but I'm in a profession that needs to be careful with what is publicly posted.

It's good to be back.
