It's time to leave now.

My last week at home (for a while) is nearly over. I have managed to completely exhaust myself with all of my last minute activities! I might even simply colapse at Terminal 3, Pearson International Airport on Tuesday afternoon...but maybe a 7 hour flight will help to bring some rest...or maybe not, since I might actually EXPLODE with excitement.

On the other side.

On t
he other side, will you be waiting for me with open arms? Will you know the things I'm feeling and understand my broken heart?
Will you laugh with me and cry wit
h me for all the silly things I've done?
Will you be waiting for me and
looking for me, prepared for what's to come?

So I did some painting the other day...and wow, do I love painting!!

I feel SO alive when I am painti
ng and creating...I LOVE that God made me that way.
Here's what I created...(For Nigel and Gill - some wonderful friends of mine)


It doesn't have a name yet, so I will call it 'Untitled' until I think of a name.











Here are a few other activities that I have done this week:

I went to B'ham last weekend and completed my TEFL course...So I am now a beginner of Teaching English as a Foreign Language.

I have said goodbye to the girls at youth...I will flippin miss them! I have been helping out my dear friends Matt and Pete with their youth group - Reality. It was just for a short while (Matt called it 'a shot in the arm'!)
I watched the Brazil:Croatia match with my Portuguese Teacher - Nubia, and her Brazilian buds...oh my, Brazilians are CRAZY!!!!
I visited my Grandpa...a fountain of wisdom, knowlegde and cheeky insults!I went to see my friend's band play...Across the Mourning Sky...

Had a little drinky at the Terra Nova with some really good friends...including my beautiful friend Vicki McDonald...I super love her!!!

My beloved friend Louise stopped by for a visit yesterday. We sat in the beautiful garden that my mother has been creating for the last century and we talked about life...and acutally I did the same the day before with my lush friend Cat...it's a garden that is worth sitting in!!!

Yes, many other events have entered my life this week and I quicky realising that I can not hack it like I used to...I must be getting old or something..?

oh and last night my super amazing, number 1 of the Los Tres Amigos friend Kate came over and she dyed my hair.

ok...Peace x
