Yup, finally back after a wonderful 3.5 weeks in Edmonton! The first 3-4 days was quite a stretch emotionally, but by God’s grace, I’m glad that I had a great experience overall. Right now, I’m missing the place and the great bunch of people that I’ve met on the program =(. But oh well, guess all good things have to [...]

Final days in Edmonton
Posted in Life on July 27, 2008 | No Comments »
Sorry everyone, for the lack of updates. Been really busy with school stuff. The course I took was condensed into 3 weeks so yea, it was pretty intensive! Anyway, I’m glad that it is FINALLY over. The past 3 weeks of school have basically left me feeling like this on some days.

The worrying and fretting for over a week was worth it after all! Now let’s have the pictures do the talking…
Enjoying the ambience before party preparations…
The BBQ pit. Basically a recycled oil drum cut in half and fitted with a grill. Did it’s job well nonetheless.
