Well, it was pretty fun! We surprised a friend with a surprise birthday party on Friday night, which had some awesome food, and I left for camping on Saturday afternoon. It was good to see most of the fam again, I havent seen lots of my cousins and other such members for almost 2 years now. We basically hung out at the beach for 2 days, ate good food (including amazing steak!), and chatted around the campfire. I got pretty burnt, but I think I shall crisp nicely after all is said and done. I got back Sunday night, in order to meet up with some friends and go out for dinner after church, then unpack and play some halo. Good times:)
Ciao, Mark

This weekend should be really fun! I am going to a housewarming party friday night, then going to a family reunion campout on Saturday/Sunday, and hopefully I will get to see Marike Boerema this weekend too! She is visiting edmonton from North carolina That's all, I am really stoked, but I need to get some sleep.

a while
wow I guess I havent posted in a while. Some things have changed in my life, here's a little catch up
-a big one, I moved! Adrian and I found a house with a friend's girlfriend, so she is living in the basement suite and we are in the 2 bedrooms upstairs! Well really it's just mainly me for the summer, Adrian is staying in our old place until our lease is up, and Erin (the friend's gf) is a teacher so she is basically doing random things for the summer. It's a pretty nice house, in a REALLY sweet neighborhood (a converted army base with lots of old school architecture). It's a good drive to work, and pretty quick too. So far I think I like it:) Although its bloody hot being on the 3rd floor in the summer... I'm not a big fan of living here by myself, I get kinda lonely sometimes, but I am working on that. (see #3)
-today at work the photographer announced she is resigning in 2 weeks. I was very sad, I liked her (Julie) a lot. We get a long well, and she basically trained me. But on the other side, maybe this will open up a new job opp. for me, I'm going to apply for her job, and hope for the best. I don't really have any formal training, but if they are willing to work with me and train me, I think I could do really well!
-I'm trying to meet more people here in Calgary (again!). I really love my friends, but as usual, they are ALL couples! NOthing is wrong with that, but it's hard to make meaningful relationships with 1 person, let alone 2. Plus there is that whole 3rd wheel thing. So I'm trying to meet more people, hopefully make some more friends, and we'll see what happens.
-I asked for saturday's off from Saneal camera's, and they actually gave it to me! I wanted them off so that I can hopefully get some experience working with a real photographer, but so far I haven't had any luck. Hopefully soon!
That's all for now,
Marko
