Catch up

So a few things have held me back from making any posts in a long time. Of course school has been part of it. It gets pretty busy sometimes. And I have been working two days a week from home...or my laptop and wherever I happen to be with it. But really, I haven't been on here because I like to put photos in my blogs, and my camera broke. Luckily it was still under warranty and I got it fixed for free but it took sending it in to Canon. Then shortly after that my PC died. I think it must be the power supply. Anyways, I keep all my photos on there and I have the camera software on there. So, today I installed the camera software on my Mac, and now here I am.

Here's some random stuff from the last three months.

My family was in town and it was my dad's birthday on Jan 11th so we went out for some food at the Banana Leaf in downtown Vancouver. (Sitting right next to my dad so I didn't get any good photos of him - plus he doesn't like photos of him).

I went with Sara to one day of the Canadian championships of figure skating at the Pacific Coloseum. She had tickets to every day, so she took a different person each day. This is where my camera decided to break!

To celebrate the leap year, Adam, Nate, Murray and I played some poker at Adam's new place living with his brother. It was actually the day before he was moving in.



In March it was Q's birthday so he had a bunch of us over and there was some rock band action going on.

Some of us also played Scrabble (while listening to Gordo sing). Sara and I won the game by a narrow margin, but then we had an unfair advantage because some people were by themselves and we were on a team.


I visited Saturna for Easter weekend. We played a lot of rounds of disc golf on a course my dad created at the local school.


There was some monkey throwing.

We played some fun games like Blokus, Rummy blocks, and what we call Multi-game which is a game my dad made up using Scrabble, Password, Scategories, Outburst, Trivia, charades and Pictionary.

I think this is my sisters looking for easter eggs.

So, now that school is about to wind down and I have my camera back and am putting photos on here I may post a bit more often.
