So. Sudbury until now.
Dec 29 to Jan 10
Dec 29 – ROADTRIP TO SUDBURY!
Science North visit felt like going on a school field trip! We held bugs, fluttered with butterflies, learned about bats, laid on a bed of nails* and invaded the kiddie corner. 
Sleep over at Elliot Lake that night. The Cochrane group was there too so we got to meet them. They were a pretty awesome bunch, with some… crazy people… but aren’t we all? We played WEREWOLF (See? It’s not mafia, it is werewolf. At least for us quebecois
) because Leon had his pack of cards, and it was truly epic. Devon makes a fantastic werewolf O_O
Also, got to see Marley’s art and stole his watercolors to paint a bit with him. I got soo woosy late that night so painted more after he went to bed (around 2am) and it turned out pretty good. 2am art is always the best
Thx Marley! It was quite satisfying.~ Got home the next day at noon and Stan left again to drive his girlfriend back to her group. O_O So we did postcard making by candlelight and that was fun.
DEC 30 – Styrofoam packing with Don
Volunteered with DON (recycling dude) at his drop-off for Xmas trees, cardboard and styrofoam. Packing styro is fun as you can chop and punch and kick it to beat it into the bags. Quite a stress-relieving experience! XD
DEC 31 – Visit from St-Joes
St-Joes came over for supper and to hang out. We went skating at the Essar center, were i had a bit of a breakdown, partly due to the fact that Jaz announced that she was leaving. DO NOT WAN!
But i understand. I had a good talk with them and Kristie promised to come see us in Montreal over the summer~
We went over to some beach around 10:30pm and lit a huge bonfire. ON THE BEACH. ON THE SNOW. AT MIDNIGHT! Then we did the countdown and lit a load of fireworks. *ahem* Including one out of Hollie’s butt.
I’m not kidding, we have photographic evidence. XD
EPIC NEW YEAR’S EVE!
Jan 1st- Mailboxes
St-Joes left, we cleaned up, and we made ourselves mailboxes. Hee.
Mom, dad and lil bro got to the Soo around 7pm, so I went out to meet them.
<3<3<3
Jan 2nd – Visit from my family!
I got to spend the day with my family. We took my brother to the Bushplane museum, which he adored, then went to the Locks. We had lunch at the mall were is saw tiny, adorable Brenda (CLA) and that just made my day, because I missed work soo badly by then. We then went shopping for dumpling ingredients and went back to the house for dinner.
Mom and dad got to meet the people i live with and see the house~~ yay!~
Needless to say I was super clingy, because… well, mum.. ;_;
Jan 3rd
I woke up missing my mom like crazy, but we had stuff to do, and i couldn’t go to meet them. That was a strange, stressful morning. Funny how you don’t realize how much you miss something until you see it again. >__< We played street hockey, then my dad taught us how to do chinese style Bookbinding. Then we all sat and made dumplings with my mom! 8D DUMPLINGS!! *CRAVES*
We went Snowshoeing with Don that night and i brought my bro. We were in Hiawatha park hike trails. It was simply gorgeous, all the trees were covered with snow and the moon was really bright. Magical~ Just like Narnia! XD Leo was tired but he loved it ^_^
On the way back we stopped at Timmy’s and I had no money, so Leo bought me some tea and himself some donuts. Ha~ XD Good for him to be carrying his wallet!
I went back to the hotel with them to shower and we watched Titanic since it was playing on TV. Wow the memories~
Jan 4th
Spent the morning with mum and dad before they left around noon. I can’t remember what we did for the rest of the day. Guess I was a bit distraught… >_>
Jan 5-9
WENT BACK TO WORK! HURRAH! I really missed it. Rose is off sick this week so really missed her. When they found out I made dumplings they insisted i teach them. So Sandra went for groceries while i went swimming with Anita, and the next day I taught them to make dumplings and wonton soup.
They loved it, and love them! ^_^ <3
Stan was off most of the week. Nuff said. We missed him a lot. O_O
Friday was our Politics debate and it was fairly interesting. I was soo impressed by Noah (dressing up as catholic schoolboy) impersonating and arguing for concepts mostly opposite to his beliefs. It was hard to toe the line between our characters and our personal beliefs. Very instructive experience. THX STAN!!
Jan 10 – Mattress Toboganning with St-Joes
Stan’s brother Jonh came over with one of his participants (He’s also a PL in Manitouwadge). He’s soo cool and seeing the brothers interact was really interesting and adorable~ X3
St-Joes was over again with their cool new temporary PL. The first thing I thought when i saw him was that he was a new participant! XD He’s awesome, this chinese (yay!) guy Erin who was the former Elliot Lake PL. We went to the hill on Black road and used our mattresses to toboggan. BEST IDEA EVER! We found all sorts of crazy ways to pile up on them and crash down. Truly epic. Paul took some great vids~~
We decided to join St-Joes for their dinner at a chinese buffet that night, so we got more time to have fun together~
Epic day with two epic new PL to meet. Doesn’t get any better.
