Wow, it's been nearly a month since I last posted - whoopsies! Some days I'm just not sure what kind of stuff I want to share on here. Most of the time I just want to complain about life which I don't want on here, hence the limited posts! But oddly enough, after coming home from Calgary I don't have anything to complain about! Didn't see that coming!
Since it was easter long, and with exams looming, I headed to Calgary Thursday evening right after school. There really isn't much to tell about it though. I managed to catch a movie with my only 2 friends left in Calgary (Hunger Games! Finally!), went to the casino with the parents and their buddy (I am THAT cool) and met up with my dad at the mall. Easter dinner on Sunday consisted of us, minus Steph (she was working), Joe's parents and a friend of theirs, a friend of Joe's and my aunt & uncle. We had some snacks leading up to dinner, crackers and dip, crackers and cheese and sausage, so by the time it was dinner time, I was almost full.
Dinner consisted of stracciatella (italian soup that is made up of ground up turkey & egg, in turkey broth with some little pasta beads and a bit of grated carrot), seafood linguini (recipe from Joe's uncle's restaurant) and salad. Desert was my uncle's own New York style cheesecake. 2 lbs of cheese in ONE cake!! It was sooooo good. *Note that most cheesecakes consist of mostly custard and not cheese, says my uncle. Upon tasting his cake, I believe him! I wish I had remembered to ask to take a leftover piece home, though I probably would have had to fight someone for it. We also had cherry and blueberry pie filling as toppings if one so desired. I took cherry... yuuummm my mouth is watering just thinking about it.
I then proceeded to have a food baby.
Today I was on the bus at 12pm heading back north. I'm so glad I got away and recharged. I literally feel recharge, pretty much like I'm a new person. Well not entirely, but I'm in a better place than I was before - we'll see how long that lasts though, exams are just 9 days away for me!
It's also nice to be back, to get back to the "real" world and structure. 4 days home was a perfect amount this time.
Ps. Disappointed I didn't get chocolate. I'm going to safeway tomorrow - I might have to buy some there..
