The weather is getting warmer and Bex came to visit me!!! I’ll never forget the moment we jumped on each other when Bex came through the doors at the Robert Q bus station!!! We had a great week, talked into the night (most nights!) and did a tonne of cool unforgettable things =]
The first day Bex explored campus while I had class most of the day, then we went to ‘Lob Food’ Haha to get some supplies. On the Tuesday, we explored campus and London and went to a ‘Sketchy’ shop downtown and bought belt buckles!!! (So shiny!!!). That night we went out for tea at the symposium … hmmm baileys and hot choc =]. It was Lilly’s birthday that night, so … as is 3East tradition, we all waited till 12:01, and then burst into her room with the beer funnel!! (A 7 ft tall funnel with four pipes with taps for four people to drink out of). Wednesday was St. Paddy’s day, and I and Bex spent the day snowboarding at Boler … in 20°C!!! I managed to break my board before I had even started, and lots of screw drivers were involved!! We managed to get down some blue runs in one piece without falling over by the end of the day then spent about an hour sunning ourselves by the road waiting for the bus and just plain chilling =] We got back to rez to find most people asleep after st paddy’s partying (this was 5pm!!!) so we ate, then went down to the Spoke for some green beer and music.
One night, the whole floor went for a few games of laser quest!!! It’s amazing how fun running around in the dark maze with a laser gun can be … and how competative people get … and how scary Andrew and Marco look in their black ninja outfits!! On the Friday, we took a trip to White Oakes mall and spent a good hour in dollerama … some interesting things resulted from the particular shopping trip!! We went to see Alice and Wonderland that night too.
Saturday night was ‘Race for Life’ While Bex went to the mall, me and the rest of 3East headed for the UC dressed in Deli traditional ‘tight and bright’!! We spent the night running round the UC, eating free ice cream and pizza and watching film's for breaks until the sun came up … over 1000 people turned up, it was a great event for raising money and awareness for cancer. As a result, Sunday morning was a slow start as we were pretty shattered. We met Lizzie and Ashley for waffles at Angelo’s and then headed for church. We walked home in the sun with ice cream. Bex packed and we managed to squeeze in 10Kg of my skiing and climbing equipment for Bex to take home too!
It was a sad goodbye … but not long till I go home now.
