Parents About to Leave

Well, I have had a nice full last 2 weeks with my sister and parents here. My sister left on Sunday to go back home to Tokyo, and my parents leave tomorrow morning to head back to Tokyo for about 6 days before heading home to Oz. It's been good having them here and I have enjoyed the time that they have been here, and the free meals I have been getting:) (Nothing better than a free meal).

Anyway I'll see them off at the Hotel tomorrow as they are getting the airport bus to YVR and so tomorrow morning will be the last time I get to see them again for a little over 1/2 a year at this stage. While they were hear we headed over to Victoria on Vancouver island where it rained all day on the Saturday, but cleared up a little and stopped raining on the Sunday for us to enjoy the Burchart Gardens, and heading back on the ferry to Vancouver. Then last Saturday we headed up to Whistler for the day just to look around (I didnt get any snowboarding in, but that was ok), it pissed down all the time that we were there, so I was kinda glad that I hadn't gone up to snowboard in the rain.

Hopefully this weekend on Sunday I will again get to go up to Cypress for a second lesson andmy second day snowboarding - that is the plan and aim at the moment, so we will wait and see whether that happens or not - it should and if anyone in Vancouver is reading this then you are more than welcome to come and join me/us in going to Cypress for the day to snowboard.

Parents and Sister

Well, my parents arrived safely on Tuesday (all be it to a lovely welcome oncewe had reached the hotel adn then left - some guy was walking in the opposite direction and said "Get out the way or get a punch in the face". Great welcome for them really, but thats Vancouver for you.

My sister arrive today safely all be it 30 minutes late as her plane was delayed, and it has been nice visiting them the last 3 days, and this weekend we are all off over to Vancouver Island and Victoria for the Saturday and Sunday, so there will be a whole bundle of new photo's on my website, and probably a nice new entry as well to go along with it.

1.40am

Well it's 1.40 am on Sunday night and I have to get up in about 6hours to go to work, but I can't sleep, not sure why, but my brain seems to just want to run through a whole bundle of scenarios at the moment. I don't really know whats going on at the moment, things all seem to be in a bit of a wierd place at the moment. Work, girls, church, life in general.

What to do, what to do. At least I have to comfort of knowing that M&D and V are arriving this week to visit for the next 2 weeks, and that the world cup cricket is about to start on Tuesday as well, for the next about 6 weeks. Luckily I have a friend (Lisa) who has a TV (for those of you who don't know I do not have a TV over here and have lived without one for the last 4 months since I got here - I have seen a little bit of TV but not much) which has access to the channels which it is playing on (so I have already told her, I'm going to be around there a lot over the period of the world cup). - Hmmmm maybe I should warn her it's going to be going on until the end of April!!! :)

Anyway, what to do. Things work in one direction, and then suddenly they seem to change and I don't know in what way they decide to change to or even sometime when they decided to change. God know's, and I do wish he'd let me in on it sometimes. Maybe yes, maybe no - I dunno, I want something to happen, but I don't really know if anything will happen. Maybe nothing is good?? I dunno and I'm so confused and still being awake at 1.50 Monday morning isn't helping to clear my head of these things either.

Maybe things will get clearer tomorrow once I've had a bit of sleep, gone to work and then cooked dinner for the 3 of us?? Who knows, either way all I know at the moment is that I just want to get some sleep.

Blog Updates

So, I have finally had a chance to up date my photo's and add some new photo's. Unfortunately there won't be any new photo's until my parents get here with my camera. Which will be mid next week (March 13h), which is soo cool, I get to see my parents again and do some stuff with them, and get a nice care package of lotsa food care of them which they are bringing over for me, and my sister is also arriving Thursday next week as well (March 15ht) which is also really kewl.

So things are currently going well over here, people are coming and going, things are consistantly changing in lotsa ways which can be good and bad at the same time. The tOH starts their new meeting this week (tomorrow Tuesday March 6th) at Kristens place, which will be interesting to see how it will go, I plan on going as it is closer to home for me, so I have to travel less which will be nice as for the last couple of weeks it has been taking me up to 50 minutes on the bus and then another 20-30 minutes of walking to get to Kyle and Anna's place for Church. Not it will be just a 30-40minute bus ride and then a 5-10 minute walk to Kristen's. I think it will be good and will go well, as those who I know are looking at going to the new meeting are looking forward to having a smaller group again and interested in growing it aswell (not that those who aren't going don't want that).

So all things are interesting and changing at the moment, and I'm looking forward to having visitors and going up to Whistler with my parents and sister - Yay
