rain, rain, tropical storms, rain

Well it has been a busy week!
French Club started on Wednesday and had about 13 kids. It went very well and they all seem pretty eager. We learnt some classroom vocabulary and the alphabet and numbers. I thought they would think it was kind of lame, but they were really into it and now there are big kids that say hi to me in the halls!!!
The rest of the week flew by and it is already Friday night. WE were supposed to go to the beach this weekend, but there is a 50% chance of tropical stormage, so we called that off! Which is lame, but also the safer choice. Instead, we are having a game night at Laura's! THis should be fun!! Unfortunately I don't have Catch Phrase here...urgh! SO much fun! But we have a good variety, including the Monopoly game Laura and Colin bought in China..haha.
Tonight, since our beach extravaganza was cancelled, Makenzie, Jessica and I went to a spa for massages. Before you gawk at the lush lifestyle I seem to be leading, the whole think put me back 20$. So basically cheaper than going out to dinner, which was the other option for tonight.
I am now hanging out in my apartment, waiting to Skype my Trent friends who are away at our now annual Labour Day weekend cottage party! I wish I was there, but, well...life. RIght?

Hope all is well with everyone, and that you aren't dying of the heat... but if you are, I have no sympathy because the rain is driving me insane! But I am told to hold on for one more month!

So some funny question I was asked about Canada this week: when you buy things, is the price written in USD? like do you have dollars?...no, we write our prices on rocks and exchange livestock for it...bah!
Do you vote in Canada? Like are you a democratic country? No..the Prime Minister is chosen at random based on who builds the best igloo!

I tell you... some people! haha.

anyway. hope everyone has a wonderful long weekend!!! oxo
