To board or to ski, that is the question

My working day:
5:30am - wake up
6:00am – leave for work
6:30am – Bus for work leaves mall 5km from where I’ve been living
8:00am – start work
4:00pm – finish work
4:40pm – Bus from work leaves for home
5:30pm – ride bike home
6:00pm – Get home

So things have been a little hectic. My working day is long and tiring. Living out of town with no car is not the most convenient of things… the family I’m living with have been amazing. They’ve been driving me to the bus stop every morning.

The work is the easiest work I’ve done. Look at peoples forms, give them ski or snow boots of the right size. Put them back at the end of the day. Tech peoples ski’s so they fit their boots, and change the din number.

I’ve been learning how to snow board, had a couple of lessons, it’s pretty damn fun. It snowed in town and covered the place in snow, it was really beautiful.




Christmas was awesome, I went back to Vancouver. The day before Christmas I met up with my Aussie friend Dan, we went ice skating and hired bikes and rode around Stanley Park. On Christmas day I went to the neighbours for Mexican food and crepes, so damn good. Then in the afternoon I went to my mate Trina’s for orphans xmas, again, amazing food, drinking, played some games. Then on Boxing Day I went back to Courtenay and had my third Xmas dinner, turkey again, more drinking, more games. So good.
