Back to Our Regularly Scheduled Programming...

Back on my side of the pond, and my side of the country for a while now, I've had a fun time getting back to the East.

I was glad to go to the airport and greet the folks from the Dominican Republic with a hello, after 5 1/2 months of minimal contact. Got hugged a bit, talked some and everyone went home happy as clams, though I thing the DR team was shell-shocked by temperatures on the negative side of the dial (GUFFAW).

I also received many-a-hug at my first time back in my home church City Heights, and I was asked to come up to the front and talk a little bit, just a few words about Russia and how it all went. Basically everything in this blog condensed into five or so minutes.

Then I got to plat drums for the first time in a LONG time, which was good. So it was fun because I got a chance

On Good Friday, I got to have a party when I got home! My mom spearheaded a little open house/party (and by little, I mean like 50 plus people) in commemoration of my safe return, so our house was full for a good 4-6 hours, though we had guests for 12 hours straight.

So after the initial hubbub of coming home, I was kindly whacked in the face by a lovely little dose of the real world. The realization that a job, a career and a life are waiting to happen. So I've applied for a little job for a few months prior to going to Kingswood camp this summer, and I have also begun applying to NSCC (Nova Scotia Community College) for photography. So there has been a lot of applications flying around for the last little while.

And finally, I'm looking forward to the end of this week for a few reasons. First off, I get to see someone I met in Vancouver! One of the staff at YWAM Vancouver is from Sheubenacadie and will be coming home for Jesus to the Nations, and I'll get to see her there! Plus, I was also asked to share a little bit at the youth conference there, which I also find to be quite awesome. So things will pick up soon.

Arrivederci.
