Trip to Montreal






Our trip to Montreal was fun and tiring. We got to see a very long and disappointing Alouettes game, see an imax movie, go to the space centre, play laser tag and lots and lots of shopping.

It was good to see all my friends during the symposium as well. But, I had to cram all of you guys into 2 days which kinda sucked. But, we always have Christmas!

Dave's coming back from another community further up north, Puvirnituq, after a week with his students. So, we get to see each other after 2 weeks. yay!

Oh yeah!!!! I have great, great news!
I met a Christian! A real Christian that I can pray with and share!
I've seen her around our school and helped her with the photocopy machine before because she's the personal assistant to my principal, but she's totally french and hard to communicate at times, so I would just say hi. But I got to know her at some potluck dinner and she said she was a missionary for the catholic church. I had my doubts... but I talked to her on our way home last night after dinner at a friend's, and she gets it. She's Christian and she wants to help with the Sunday school. I won't keep my hopes up too much because I've been let down too many times while I've been here, but I'm even just satisfied with the hour long talk we had outside last night.

anyways guys, keep on praying for me, big decisions to make before next summer....
Miss you all already!

YUMMY!


* pics - making my friend's birthday cake, Dave's saturday morning crepes, cheesecake with freshly picked blueberries and I think I was making frosting for something

The one of the good things about being up here is that you have time to make food, instead of eating out 95% of the time. I really started to enjoy baking and realized that I don't know what to do when it comes to red meat, I either make it bulgogi (booboogee-as Dave calls it) or put teriyaki sauce on it. Pretty asian, huh?

On another note, I'm finally better. Yesterday, I slept the whole night without waking up from coughing. YAY! I really didn't want to be sick when I went to Montreal. Speaking of Montreal, I'll be arriving at Dorval around 6:30-ish, I think we have to go to the hotel, check in and all and whoever wants, we can go grab dinner or something? I'm staying at the Sheraton downtown, I think it's the one near Bonaventure. See you all very, very soon!!! Can't wait!!
