So it took this long...

I had the weirdest feeling the other day. I was homesick. Yes people, it took 10 months for me to get homesick. I think I did pretty good. Given I did get to go home twice since moving here, but still...not too shabby, if I do say so myself!

It was a weird feeling. I wanted to pack what I needed into my car and drive home. Not fly home for a visit, but take my stuff and 'go home'. By the time I got to Hope I probably would have turned back around. Yes kids, there is a town called Hope here. It's a few hours away on the Trans Canada Highway. Anyways, I think I just missed having the chance to do something all the time. Not that I always had plans, but if I wanted to do something it usually wasn't too difficult to find someone to do it with in Ptbo. Here I don't have any friends. It makes me appreciate the ones I have back home because those friends are awesome. (I miss you guys!!) I'm finding it difficult to find quality people to hangout with here. It might seem funny to most people that finding friends is hard, but when you generally make a lot of friends at work and you now only have 8 other people in your office, your usual method isn't going to work.

So...

I've decided I need to make some changes. I need to be less cautious and just get out there! I also need to be more active. I'm much happier and feel better when I at least walk for a bit every night. May as well make use of the iPod I have, too!
