A Couple Things....

So today was pretty much amazing.

Happy Father's Day to all the guys out there who are Daddy's, however mine still beats you all.

=]

Today was Dad-Fest. Basically a huge party at Airforce beach for all the Dad's and their families... or a fantastic day sprawling out at the beach.

I spent most of my day on the beach, lounging walking and taking pictures and then it was time to come home for my Family Graduation party!

We ate Steak, sautéed mushrooms and onion, new potatoes and broccoli. Yum. and then.... PRESENT TIME!

Needless to say, my family is amazing. I got:

- A twisted two-toned gold bracelet from my aunt and uncle.

- A knock-off LV that I have waned fro a very long time from my Nana and Papa

AND

-My Sony A350k DSLR, I still haven't named her yet

IT IS PHENOMENAL.

I LOVE IT.

So Excited to use it at Grad.

♪ So Yesterday...

Well, I guess this blog really marks a close to one chapter of my life.

I am now, un-officially of course, a graduate of the Province or British Columbia.

It's so crazy to think back to the end of grade nine, when I was praying really decided I was going to do this; when I decided was going to take on the task of Graduating a year early. I don't think it even has hit me that I've graduated yet. It's SO weird. God's done some pretty incredible thing in me through my two years of high-school but I'm so read to start living in this next chapter.

I'm really going to take my time and enjoy it too. Learn to be content y'know? There is no rush now, no deadlines holding me back. The rest of my life is God's to lead and it isn't restricted by school any longer. Not to say I didn't love school and God couldn't have used me then, because all of that is possible too.... however, life feels so much less restricting now.

So on with the future!

This week my schedule looks something like this:

20th - Clean my room, practice piano, work (4:00)

21st- FATHER'S DAY, Church (10:00),Practice Piano/scales, Family Father's Day/Madison Graduation Dinner (5:00ish)

22nd - Grade 8 Piano Exam (10:10)

24th - Youth Group (5:30-9:30)

25th - Pack for Graduation, Prep make-up, Mock hair?

26th - GRADUATION 2009! Hair, Make-up, Head to Langley, Grad Cap and Gowns, Commencement, Group shot, Photos, Grad Dinner, maybe Grad party?

27th - Head home, Sleep!

28th - Church (10:00 or 5:30), Grad Celebration with Brandon =]

Pretty Excited for everything coming up, going to be phenomenal.
