Hightlights would consist of:
- Building Snowmen - my fun friend Michelle and I had fun in the snow and built a handsome snowman, unfortunately he was drop-kicked and destroyed (which kinda looked cool but when you spend several hrs working on a master piece you don't want to see it destroyed right after) but a bunch of our awesome floor brothers helped us recreate him. A while later Michelle, Heidi and Andrew K. and I all make a huge snow woman who must have been about 9feet tall. Andrew, who was tall had to stand on a chair and stretch to fit the head on. Lots of fun in the snow!
- Christmas Banquet - while I didn't go with a date I went with some awesome friends and the theme of the banquet was awesome! It was a Maquerade! Like from phantom of the Opera! I had fun with it and made my own dress (which was technically an assignment for my Theatre Class) and a cool matching mask. The food was awesome and the entertainment was entertaining!
- LotR- Yes I watched Lord of the Rings for the first time in my life as well as several other movies that I have never seen and people are shocked to hear that...and there are many movies to go...any suggestions?
- Boyfriend - definitely a highlight, I started dating this guy who is commonly known as Pajama Boy for wearing pajama pants to school. He is also known to be one of the kindest guys you will ever meet and is just a sweetheart. I have also found out that he is a very fast runner and will follow through with his threats...the reason I have been thrown into a snowbank about 3 times....I guess I might have deserved it.....
- Brother - I got a brother this year! Being 1 of 4 daughter I have no brothers but was adopted by Andrew Love as his little sister...who is only a couple months younger then him. He scolds me when he needs to, we have fun coffee times, are still planning a fight to the death (him being a vampire and me being a werewolf and all [previous blog post explains that]) and I make him laugh and give into almost anything with my cutsie girl act (why doesn't this work on Jesse though?) NOTE: My brother is not to be confused with my sisters 'brothers'. Her brothers are not mine, mine is not hers and neither of her brothers or mine are related to each other. Simple as that.
- Friends - Friends as always are fun. I have been teased for almost every reason, mostly by my roommate and an old friend from camp. Together my friends from Ambrose have had awesome times as we have played many different games, shared jokes, gone on hikes and just grown together. I also had an awesome time when my Abbotsford friends and a friend from Vancouver Island came to visit me!
- Playing Sports - Every semester we had at least 1 intermural sport. I was involved in both flag-football where I had the joy of scoring my first ever touch down again my profs (yes we get to play our profs in our school - beat that!) and futsal (indoor soccer) where I had fun playing as much as I could and getting some really nice bruises. Also throughout the year it was fun to play futsal, basketball and frisbee with my friends and schoolmates!
- Coffee Times - Waves Coffee House was finished and ready for business in the second semester and I must say that it was an awesome place to go to for a nice cup of white hot chocolate (YES!!) and a nice long talk with my sister, my brother, my friends or just on my own to study.
- Growing - Finally (because there are many other highlights but these cover the majority I suppose) I found that it was fun to see how each of my friends grew in their own ways, how their lives changed, some in big ways some in small. I also found that I grew in many ways too....all but in height that is. Ambrose was a great time of learning more about who God wanted me to be as a student, friend, sister, and as myself. I learned many valuable lessons both in the class room and out of it and am glad that I decided to come here
So how was your year? What were your highlights?
