I Should Be Homeworking

Well. It's been almost officially a month here. Um I miss you. I keep hearing about the really cool things you guys have been changing to make Young Adults super-I'm really excited for it and I'm praying for your ministries. I can't wait to come and visit :)



I don't think I have all that much to say really. I can introduce to you my roommates kinda. I'll get better pictures as we're having a photo shoot soon once the skies are sunny and we don't have a million tons of homework (never). But here's Ashley.

She's a beauty queen I know. I'll get a better picture soon. One of the funniest people ever too.










This is Chelsea.

Hilarious girl really. The best facial expressions ever. Chelsea and Ashley are both from the states. Ashley from Cali and Chelsea from Nebraska. They are very proud. And they say rum instead of room. And ben instead of been.







So this is my actual roommate on the way to dinner. Those ones up there are just connected to our room but actual roommate's name's Kirstie (KEEHR-stee) and she likes cowboys and Nickleback. Ew. But no, despite that, she's pretty cool. She's gonna be my accompanist for all my vocal recitals and stuff. And we're in choir together. And she plays acoustic guitar. And when she laughs, there's like this big explosion and then you wonder if it even happened because her face goes instantaneously back to emotionlessness-it's absolutely amazing, I don't know how she does it. She keeps her side of the room INSANELY clean... every single moment of the day... which is in deep contrast to my side...

















Wonder which one could be mine?!



In other news. I'm sick. And it sucks cuz I'm getting no work done cuz I'm tired and icky feeling and I can't practice singing for my voice lessons cuz I have like missing notes in my range because of the sick and ugh. It's actually kinda entertaining, next time I'm sick there I'll show you cuz like I do scales and it just mutes for a note and then hits the next one super hard. Pre-pubescent boy style. Ok it's prolly not as funny as I make it out to be. But I laugh.



Oh I'll show you some more pictures ok. This is when Toby didn't want me to leave him. "No Chantal, you just can't even go. Chantal please! No! At least take me with you! Lookit how good I can fit with your clothes!" That's what he's saying. Poor little buddy, I miss him. If you ever feel inclined to, go to my house and give him a walk for me. I guess I had a bit to say afterall.




Well the ladies are coming to pick me up for dinner. Love you all-see you soon enough :)

Missing Mountains

So. I'm in Saskatchewan. In the lovely "village" of Caronport. Sooo much has happened in the past week and a half it's nuts. But overall, I've been having an insane time with my old PG friends and plus my new roommates. And my classes are AMAZING. It's a pretty surreal feeling to actually want to read your textbooks; that you want the class to never end! I'm getting so overwhelmed with how much I'm learning, I'm not sure if any of it is sticking but I'm feeling pretty excited about it. So I wrote out an adventure I had involving the "Freshmen Games" but I'm looking at it now and realizing it's waaay long. I know I wouldn't read it. So just know I had a great time and our team won a plastic double-fretted guitar.

So weird thing. The boys' dorms have this rule. Where they can't date/practically even look at a girl until October 1st. Or they either get stripped down to nothing and get shot with an airsoft or they get beaten with the "Uh-Oh Stick", depending on the dorm really. So the "Freshmen Rush" will happen officially on October 1st and I'm kinda freaked out! Haha anyway.

Well anyway, I'll post some pictures maybe sometime. If I feel like it. I hope you guys are having a fantastic time over yonder! Love and hugs.
