Saturday fun with the CanIL gang

On Saturday a group of friends from school went bowling. I'd never been bowling in Canada before but had heard rumors that it was different from bowling elsewhere. You bowl with a smaller ball with no little holes for your fingers, and you try to knock down five small pins, getting 5 points for the middle one, 3 for the ones next to it, and 2 for the outside pins (to sum it up in one sentence). It was a lot of fun. You can really hurl that little ball. I also found it much easier to control the spin (control is a relative term). Below are a few shots (from the top: me trying to knock down that last pin, the gang)


After a successful first try at Canadian bowling we went to Nathan's house to eat pizza and play Risk. I hadn't played risk since oh, about 5 years ago, and I guess now you play it with 4 missions (I liked the old way better). I came in third :-) lol. I won't comment on who won.

Back in Canada - Snow

Today was my second day at school back in Canada. It's been snowing pretty much all day and still is. I guess the picture looks kinda dark and gloomy but it's really quite beautiful. I'm looking forward to this my last semester. I'll be taking three classes (Greek Exegesis II, Christianity and Culture, and Tonal Analysis). I'm also a teacher's assistant in Phonology. So, my semester should be fairly busy but I doable. God will help me through.
It was great to see everyone again at school. I know I've only been gone for three weeks but when you see people every day you miss them when you're away. Also had a great time yesterday seeing some of the people from church at Grub and Grow (Dinner/Bible Study/Prayer meeting). Look forward to a great semester there too.
Wishing I had my cross country skis.

Sea World



Cora and I went to Sea World on January 2nd. Highlights included the Shamu Show (killer whales doing all sorts of tricks - man those things are huge), riding the Kraken roller coaster (though Cora enjoyed it, my left ear is still ringing from her screams), and the show with the whale/dolphin/bird show. I had a great time. Maybe one day I'll get to go back. Thank you Cora for the ticket and the company.
