Hey to all my followers,
As my cousin pointed out to me, I have not posted here in a long time, so here I am, about to update you all on my life :). I guess instead of going month by month, I will do categories and update like that. So here goes:
School
I went back to school this past September for Recreation and Leisure services. I wanted to go for Educational Assistant, however, money wouldn’t allow me. I am liking the program so far. I have made a few friends, the homework load isn’t too heavy and the courses are somewhat interesting. This semester, I am doing a placement two days a week at a Boys and Girls club. I mostly work with the 8, 9 and 10 year olds, which is the area I like. Umm what else. Oh yeah, on Monday, we have an interview night for next year’s placement. We signed up for 7 interviews and after we have them, we pick our top interviews and hope that one of them chooses you as well. Reading week is in a week as well :).
Family
There have been a few changes in this category over the past few months. My sister has moved to British Columbia with her fiance. They will be back in May for a few weeks to have their wedding.
My brother’s Girlfriend just had a baby, so that makes me an Uncle! Her name is Ryleigh and was born 5 weeks early, but seems to be doing well. Here is a picture of her.
And another picture of her that is a bit closer
Friends
On New Year’s eve, I got to take the bus to New York city and meet a friend and his brother!!!! I have known my friend Justin since 2005 online and we have tried to meet in the past. Finally things worked out. Along with meeting and hanging out with them, I had the amazing opportunity to explore the city. From Times square, to Central park, Brooklyn Bridge to Empire State building, we got to see so much!! We also spent a day in New Jersey visiting their parents. Here are a few pictures from the trip.

So that’s my life in a nutshell. Everything seems to be going well at the moment. Have a great day all :)

ReplyDeleteWOW....I wish I'd seen this sooner, not sure how things pass me by & than all of a sudden they appear.....I say you have had a pretty exciting start to 2011.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing amazing in school & you should be very proud of yourself. Right now you have to do what you're doing & maybe you get a job in this field for a few years & than can continue your education for an EA. However, one never knows, maybe when you're out there working in this field you'll find you really love it.
Keep up the good work & update more often.
Love you & so very proud of you and CONGRATS on being uncle!!!!
