That's It! But I'm Not Giving Up Yet

I've officially been stoop up twice over the last four days. And by someone who hasn't even seen me before, so there can't be an accompanying excuse! Our differing languages and backgrounds are already becoming a barrier and yet we have only been emailing and texting. I just started the Conversation Partners program here at UVic to practice my Spanish for Honduras and future mission trips, as well as to make an International student feel at home here (even thought Vic and B.C. in general, is not my home...sshhh). We will meet one day. I'm just not sure when at this point with the history we've had.
It must be karma for me not making it to the BML today to do data entry since I just got back from Van around 12pm (usually when I walk into the lab doors).
This is the first time I have actually been productive and achieved work while visiting Ate Laura and Kuya Chris. I was their first visitor to their new home in Richmond, right by No.3 road and the River Rock Casino. Not too shabby at all for location.
Amidst an emotional weekend remembering our beloved on the 40th day, I could not have wanted to be anywhere else than with family, especially the ones I've got just a ferry ride away over here.
Miss you always, Kuya. Can't wait to see that smile again.
