I'm sorry!

So, I've started school, I've moved into a new apartment, and best of all... I made friends! All while not keeping up with this blog. In my defence, I have about four journals with the first five or so pages written in them. Staying dedicated to writing about my life has never come easily to me. I will try my very hardest this time. I promise.

I lost my camera charger, so if I post any pictures they are most likely from my Blackberry. (Which takes excellent photos sometimes!) But for today I mostly would just like to share my goals for this blog, my goals for my year, and some things that make me happy.

As far as this blog goes... I have so many bookmarked on my mac, and I realized that if even just one person said to me "Hey, I have your blog bookmarked." That would be awesome. So I guess, bookmark my blog, and make my life. I'll keep on writing just for you. 

My goals this year are mostly "have fun" types of goals. Whistler, Tofino, tattoo. Things that will make me happy. The only big important goal I have at the moment is to graduate from BMC this August.

Living life in Vancouver has been so beautiful. Everything is amazing, people are friendly. Its rainy, yes. But it's a price I'm very willing to pay. Umbrellas are cute, too! So far I've done a lot of touristy things.. Who wouldn't? Aquarium, Seawall, Capilano Suspension Bridges, Granville Island. I also went to see Ke$ha and LMFAO live. (Get $leazy.)

I'll leave you with some pictures. And I promise I'll be back. Promise!

Aldergrove Car Show

Yesterday, we went to a car show where Andrew's uncles both had vehicles. We made it there just in time for the car show to end, so we didn't have much to look at, but what was there was absolutely gorgeous. We went back to Andrew's uncles house for a big get together, where all the guys lined their cars up for a photo, and we all had dinner and drinks.

You And Me Go Fishin' In The Dark

Today was another good day of wandering downtown Vancouver. We took the sky train all the way to Waterfront and walked along the seawall to Stanley Park. It was such a beautiful day outside! The walk took us about half an hour, making occasional stops to look out at the scenery. We went into the aquarium, too! I was very happy to sit at the shark tank and just watch the giant sea turtle swim around, but we did have to move on to the rest of the aquarium. We spent a good two hours there before we decided it was time to head back. We took a walk through Gas Town to find somewhere to eat lunch, and eventually settled on an east indian place. The butter chicken was to die for! After exploring Gas Town a little bit more, we decided it was time to get home...we were exhausted! Here are a few photos of the day, enjoy!
