I am a companion to a woman who humbles me. This is my second visit to her where she is under the care of devoted professionals and Christians. She is my hero. Someone who can find happiness when once they had absolutely nothing is a model of emotional strength for me. Our first meeting she gave me the most beatiful smile and immediately took my hand. My favourite part of the visit is when she wants to hold my hand. Funny how something so simple can really warm my heart. I even broke out of my comfort zone and sang Wild Thing with her before leaving.
Check out the spices my Momma sent me! Apparently I'm the only one in my house who is familiar with these twist top jars with holes in them. The spices just fall out. My housemmate last year discovered this by mistake.
Check out my curry creation from last night! I described the outcome of this already. Today it tasted better after reheating.
My pride and joy of the week. Somehow I managed to make the zipper on my mec bag extremely overlap the material. What wonderful service they provided. I brought it back for repair, at which they determined it was irreparable, so they gave me a brand new one. I think I am satisfied with my work. Even my tank of a housemate was impressed by the damages.
My friends in Ontario will be upset with me for mentioning that today I did homework outside. At nighttime too. The transit theme of today was the bus being early, so every time I prepared to walk I would see it pass by from afar. So, on my return to Starbucks, instead of reclaiming my table inside, I sat outside and did me some homework. Many say that spring will be here for us next week. I believe them. To me, it's been spring since September.
VANOC is totally here. I noticed an increase in tourists downtown today. The fact that I even noticed the tourists at all was a warning flag. Looks like they're all paying a visit here before they flood Vancouver. I love it.
Attended half of my Sign Social tonight. We actually had a roundtable conversation in ASL. It was really neat, actually applying my skills in real conversation with others at the same level. Learned a lot of new and useful signs: all the provinces, park, asking where you grew up. I wonder if I can find volunteer work in a country that has an ASL community. That would be awesome. Challenging. But awesome.
