Crazy Week!

My camera was sitting on the table and i thought it looked cool, so i took a picture. Sorry for the lack of updates-seems to be the theme of my blog of late! Thanks for still checking (assuming someone is still checking.. haha) This week has been fairly full, but lots of fun! Leslie from Edmonton was out to visit so it was great to see her and hang out. Wednesday we spent the day in White Rock. Thursday morning I had my last exam (woot woot!) and so in the evening we had a little celebration bbq/games night/pool party and it was pretty stellar. Friday we hung out and then went to Tony and Tina's wedding in the evening, which is an interactive dinner theatre in vancouver-was interesting, funny and lots of fun! Saturday Leslie left and I was off to church to sing in ensemble for the weekend services! Sunday after church had lunch with friends and then swam for the afternoon.
Then Monday morning summer semester began (yes, i had a super long break). I started classes with mixed feelings, because two weeks prior I was done with school.. and now here I am starting it right away again with no break. I'm taking Data Analysis (stats course), Lifespan Development and Tennis (haha.. okay that one's not so rough!) I have two more additional classes later on in the summer, but am glad that I can finish some faster! I am just really tired and want a break! I just started a second job which takes up a bit more time and energy as well, so I feel spent! (as you can tell by the picture below....)

Tonight I went to a Tango show with my friend Chrystal in Vancouver. It was amazing! Such good dancers and the orchestra was great too! They had an accordian type instrument as the main instrument and it was great!

Went to Trinity's graduation on Saturday to see my friend Arezoo graduate!! Congrats Arezoo and thanks for including me in on the celebration! :)

So two and a half more weeks of solid school every day! I looked at it, and in the next two weeks, I have four exams!! ahh!! I will make it through though, I just need to get to it and stop thinking about it!! haha..
Lately God has been teaching me to simply rest. And be still in His presence. Just sitting outside amidst His creation in silence. Driving in quietness. Amidst everything going around, I am learning to continually stop and be still and know that He is God. And to understand more and more what that means. Been having some really amazing revelations about the law versus grace as seen in my life, but that will have to wait for a later date when I am not tired and wanting to go to bed!

yup . .I come and check.
We went to tony and tinas wedding one time. We had no idea what to expect and our show got pretty ronchy. I was so embarrassed because I had arranged it for our care group.
I can just see that you can make a fun time out of anything.
