Fantastical Week

I have no clue, how time flies these days. Busy busy bee that I am. Life has been pretty good on all fore fronts of life. I guess I am a little troubled with the choices I have to make in life. 

The freedom of choice leads to so many correct and incorrect answers. Which one to choose. What am I feeling at that point in time when I make it? All these factors that play in are whimsical. 

Anyway, the week has been awesome. Fun filled and the start up of intramurals is just great. 

Townies

I was going TGIF way to early. I fell asleep Thursday night whilst checking e-mails and my phone died, thus no alarm clock. I missed my 830 Friday morning class of Biogeography. It's been a pretty good Friday other than that.

There needs to be more love on the streets, as the Kingstonians just rev through the ghetto or rather rampage around campus. I almost got run over today. It was not fun. Then I get yelled at. It's been a pretty good Friday other than that.

I'm just casually on my bike rolling through Victoria Park, heading back to campus towards to the ATM. I was cutting through the grass due to the influx of pedestrians during school days. Out of no where a ditch. Not ready to brace myself on my bike — tumble and fall. Wipeout. Super not fun. It's been a pretty good Friday other than that. Got up quickly since I have to make the 5 pm closing and pick up my jacket! I was really glad that I made it in one piece, and I got to get suited up in my barred leather jacket.

Away & Back again

Pulled another summer AWOL. As most of life usually is when it's not as important as writing everything down, well typing! Anyway, it's been a helluva fun, awesome (insert Aussie accent) few weeks. I'm back in town with a job, new friends from all over the world, and here in an empty classroom typing. 

I guess we can back track because that's always easier. First day of school has been going great, I've spending most of my day in the office up to no good really. There isn't much work to be done with school just taking off. 

My previous week was filled with sickness, awesome times and new friends from all over the globe that I hope to be life long friends with. That being said, I've enjoyed my time being an Orientation Leader for incoming exchange, transfer and castle students. They've been an enjoyable bunch to hang out with and to learn from whether it be culturally, academically or purely to be a friend. 

The house in Kingston, has been pretty good. It was empty and lonely until all my housemates came home. Although their nightly escapades Downtown are a tad distrubing and apparently I've locked them out quite a few times. It's definitely going to be a fun year although I won't be in residences!

And previous to that is too far away to remember, so all I can say is that driving on a highway was something   I intended to be doing when I was 16, three years later and childhood dream fulfilled. So, it's been a great summer is all I can say! 

Assurance

Be assured, I didn't fall into some hole or as I like to say, fall off the face of the Earth. I've been active on my alternative social networkings. Rest Assured. Anyway, it's been a world wind of a month. I simply can't believe that August is already well under way.

It definitely has been a great experience so far in the large city of Toronto. Well I commute equally between Markham & Toronto. Fun stuff. I've had the opportunity to meet new friends, and find that we all have some sort of mutual friend. I got to accomplish most things on my to-do list. Only my instructors course and the stupid chemistry course to finish. What can I say, I lead an "intensive" life.

In all, the weather has treated me well. New friends & acquaintanceships have been made. God's been guiding my life, finally and not me at the steering wheel. But I got to say driving a car is always making me gleeful, (maybe not my "life" car). I've also committed to pray for specific people and want to continue to do that.

In a nutshell, I'll be more apparent on this beautiful site. (time to update the cover photo?)

Vancity

I’m behind again, but with great reasons of course. Vancouver, the city where I’ve lived for so many years. Where I would call home on many occasions. I think this time around, although I was only there for six days. Being there by myself allowed me to really connect with those that I love and admire dearly. As much as I did spend a lot of time with an unexpected person, we shared what we had most in common; God & moving elsewhere for university.

I guess there’s some innate connection that is forged when you move away to another city for tertiary education. The friends you make, the choices that you take, the wealth experiences & opportunities you are exposed to are all similar but different at each university. More so we’ve all grown so much connecting with others and building up our spiritual growth throughout the year, well in his case years.

There’s always a purpose. It’s been really showing through the past few years. Leaving turned from a horrid thing that I could not even face at the age of 15. After the realization that the experiences I’ve had the opportunity to partake in and not has allotted to grow as an individual and closer to Christ.

As much as there was that shadow of a time where I was literally a lost sheep, wandering aimlessly spiritually. I’m glad to say I have found my way through my peers and friends, I’ve made as a child and new ones as well.

Coming back from a year of crazy and everything new to me. Sitting in that kitchen with my childhood friend felt like it was not too long ago that we were sitting in that exact same position 11 months back. Predicting what would happen over a year. Things that may change us, things we aspire to do. We both came to the simple realization that we cannot control everything and essentially we let God humour us and make sure our way is what He so desires.

There's too much to share as usual. But those are the striking thoughts I had throughout last week. I also have to catch up in a post about things that have already taken place in Toronto. But that’s for another day.
