So it's been about a week since the big moving day. It wasn't a long process but it was quite drawn out. But the main thing is I know in my house and loving it. It is so nice and there is so much room and laundry is right there and i get my own room with a really comfy bed. So life is good. I also scored about 10 channels of cable, so that is fun except is only a hinderance to the whole unpacking process. Justin comes over to just chill cuz it is close to his work and we can watch tv and maybe soon movies together so that will be nice. I am close to a Save-on-Foods and there is also a really good bakery there so that's a plus. So yes overall its a great one.
This weekend I am planning on finishing up the unpacking but more importantly I am going to the drive-in movie for sure tonight. Fast and Furious is playing there so it will be fun becasue we are in our cars. Maybe we can do chinese food for supper or something. Yummy.
I am just working and schooling, besides what I have prev iously mentioned, so nothing too exciting. Me and Justin are great. I love hanging out with him still (we haven't drove each other bonkers yet) he's the best! :) Well, anywyas that's all thats new :) Until nxt time...

Spring is singing in the garden to the laughing daffodils
So I guess it's not technically spring but it's getting there. The weather here is turning from winter to spring slowly but surely. The rain has started with the gray skies and the occasional blue burst. As I drive/walk down the street I see the signs that life is beginning to form in the flower beds. It's so refreshing the see new growth and to finally have rain so it can wash the snow and the dirt of winter away for a fresh clean new beginning. All the grass is green, trees are starting to blossom, and the birds are feeling frisky (not in a bad way) because they can wash themselves in the newly formed puddles of rain... BEAUTY!
On a different note...tomorrow morning I get the brakes fixed on my car which is great so that i don't have to fear them not working and crashing into someone. And then in the evening i get to go for dinner with the Starbucks people. So I am excited about that, i wasn't going to go but then one of the girls asked if I was going and I said I don't know and then she's like yes you are, so yah i feel like i could go now. And then this weekend I get to work at La Vie En Rose. I don't liek working weekends but I like it there, so it's good I haven't seen them in a long time and I might get to work with Farren, my favorite! :)
School is going well. We are nearing the end. We have alot of hands on tests in the next while, but it's ok, cuz the one thing that I was having really lots of trouble on and was really worried about i got the hang of the other day. We worked on it all day and then that night I had a dream about it and how to do it easier and then the next day I tried it that way and it was so much easier and did almost perfectly yesterday...so it's cool I am excited, and I hope I do well. I stil haven't found a place to do my work experience, but a spa with a salon is advertising at the school so I think iw ill co ntact them and see if I can work there.
I am getting excited/stressed because I am moving next weekend. It is good news, but I have so much to pack up and clean. And we all know that is not my forte. But it's no tlike I can over pack because I can only take what in the house...minus the fridge and the kitchen sink....
Anyways this is all that's new in the life of me :)

Will it never end?
Wow, so December 6th was the last time I wrote....wow. Alot has happened since then. I guess i won't write on everything, but I have been so busy since then and my computer hasn't been working.
So, I am keeping very busy. I usually work at Starbucks about 3-4 times a week and then after that I go straight to school for 4 hours, then i drive home and go to bed. I am loving starbucks, i caught on pretty quick so its good. Practicing a little more making drinks would be good so i am not so overwhelmed when i get a string of cups lined up but i have mostly been working on till so I am really good at that now. And then school is great. We are learning so much about color, perms, updos, cuts, and now we have started taking clients so I have cut a couple peoples hair. It is fun but scary at the same time, I think all my people left happy though, sso that's a good thing. And I am loving school. I think i would love it alot more if I ddin't have to work cuz i wouldn't be so tired all the time, but i guess i got to pay rent, so i shouldn't complain. I should feel blessed to even have a job.
But the last 2 weeks have really sucked because I have been sick. It started off with achiness and fever and chills and then it kind of went away, but starting this last wednesday my throat has been really scratchy and then thursday i couldn't swallow it was so paintful and it has been like that ever since....so I keep meaning to go to a health clinic but yesterday i slept all day and today I had church and they aren't open. So I am taking the morning off work tomorrow and i am going. I think i might have strepthroat but it might be some other kind of virus. I didn't have any fever with the throat until yesterday so i don't know....So prayer that that will heal quickly and i can regain energy to do work and school.
Yesterday for Valentine's Day I slept all day and then I woke up around 5:30pm, got dressed up, did my hair, and Justin took me out to this Italian restaurant in White Rock (right along the beach) and it was really good. After dinner he took me home and walked me to my door like a gentleman and then i went to bed...it sucks being sick, i couldn't even stay out late with him :( But dinner was very good and it was nice of him and romantic.Things with us are going pretty good right now. In a couple weeks our good friends Drew and Lynn who we do everything with are moving to Princeton, BC where he got offered a pastoring job. So it will be sad to see them leave as me and Justin won't know what to do with ourselves, but there is a time to make new friends.And Drew is like a brother to Justin so that will make things hard too. Anywyas that's what's been going on here in BC the last little while. i will update as soon as I can. I am focuzing on getting better and then getting my computer fixed.
much love,
Leia
