The Last Few Weeks

Working six days a week, I don't usually have much to write about on here anymore.

I am saving and sending every penny I make to Yen to pay for our wedding in August. So with the exception of dinner Saturday nights (which runs me about $20 for dinner and drinks anyway) I do very little.

However, last Friday night I was called and asked to come to a meeting between the Dean of the university and New Brunswick vice-premier Stephen Horsman the next morning.......... so yeah I did that.

I've also managed to hit the gym regularly and get through midterms. My first year is almost done, and so far I am very happy I decided to take a full time uni job.

This week Yen is in Manila to pick up stuff for August, and visit Rose and Diya, who are both in Manila from Daegu. I wish I could have made it. Diya is two now, and very mobile. The last time I saw her was over a year ago, and she was just starting to walk. She will be in Tacloban this fall, and while I would love to visit in August, I think it will have to wait until the winter break next year.

The weather here is back to its downright tropical feel. Sitting outside by the pond on a warm night with a couple Chinese "beers" is becoming not only possible, but a nice thing to do. I expect 30 plus and humid until November.

I have gotten in to a bad habit of starting 15 different blogs, but never finishing them. I have a lot of grading to do this weekend, but I'll try to get 1-2 done as well. Chris Cornell will have to be one.
