So, the girls met up on the holiday Monday and had a nice visit - nice is the only adjective I can think of to describe the day. I personally didn't feel like there was a very good connection and all we really talked about was babies and pregnancy. The picture I've attached should show you the reason for that. It just makes me wonder - was university the only thing we ever had in common? Why do husbands and babies change the nature of our friendship?
Tonight I'm back in Toronto for another lecture and then I have to buckle down - I must get that profile of Al Gilbert written but first I'll need to contact him! Also on my plate - an expose on immigrant farm workers in our area. That should be rather interesting. So, only three or so more weeks to go and then this full-time monkey job is finished and I can get back to what I love - school! I'm still reading through 'The Fountainhead' and plan to take up a biography on Pink next. I find biographies of Christians fascinating, particularly because of how there are aspects of all of our lives that are similar as Christians and then aspects that are so different (that sounds so silly and vague but I'm not sure how else to say it). It's those similarities that act as a source of encouragement to fight the good fight, to continue to be a light, to stive to honour God in all and then it's sometimes the differences that help me to be thankful to God for His mercy toward me. I am very thankful that He has blessed me with good friends and parents that love and support me and a sister who I love more than anyone. All of these things and the material blessings I receive are such causes for praise to God.
I wasn't sure how I'd be able to find the money to go to school next year but through OSAP God provided the exact amount that I needed to pay my tuition for the year. I am really thankful that it's God's will that I continue at Sheridan because I love it and really want to make Journalism my career. So, September is looking more and more exciting!!
