i could've sworn that it was just last week that i just got to toronto and just started classes... and now, classes are over and i'm 4 days from finishing this semester! it's totally unbelievable.
so anyway. now i'm 1 exam down and 2 more to go. bad luck for me however, both of them are on friday morning. good news however, by 2pm on friday - i'll officially be done! =D whoop dee do.
alrighty so this weekend was pretty funny. i totally procrastinated (as per usual), and so thursday, friday and saturday was pretty much spent doing nothing. lol. sunday however i did do a lot of my politics exam which is definately a good thing (even if it is full of crap). but yes. friday night - thanks to luke, we went to natrel and did more figure skating... the skating i liked, the cold...? i don't think so! it was abt -13 degs by the time we were out there.. and the wind chill made it a heck of a lot worse. butttttttttt. after about and hour or so of freezin my ass off, it actually got better. hahah. but yeah, it was a nice night. =)
so yeah, after skating we ended up at teashop 168, played pick-up sticks (which i'm amazed no one else has done before...!!) and then somehow "accidentily" ended up grocery shopping.. haha. thennn, we ended up at our place where corbin made a kick ass salad, and nhan taught us how to play viet style big 2... pretty funny.. lol. anyway, here's some pics:

nhan teaching me how to play viet big 2... watta whacked game. but yet so good.
mmm. saturday night was a major snow storm! well. maybe not a storm.. but it sure did snow a lot!! so on sunday morning when i woke up and went downstairs to walk to church - the whole street was covered with snow!! all the gates and sidewalks and all were just packed with white fluffy snow! it was pretty cool.. hahah except the fact that the church congregation was pretty much halved because of all the people who couldn't make it because they were snowed in... LOL. but yes.. so later on when sarah and i were headed to uni to get some work down we brought our cameras along and went a little camera happy hahah.. but with good reason of course! check it out:
a REAL snow woman! she's got boobs and everything! hahahah.
but sadly no.... i didn't make this one..
the ryerson quad - look at the pines! how beautiful!!
sarah and the snow on the road...
and then... the piles of ploughed snow.
a look down mutual street - i walk this stretch pretty much everyday..
and yet, it was totally revelatory to see the snow..
amazing hey.. it was really the first time that i've seen THAT much snow. totally amazing. =D i think that after witnessing a white christmas like this, things are gonna feel sooooo different back in perth! hahah. but either way, it's definately a whole new experience... i'm not sure if i could live here in toronto though, long term i mean. it's a bit too slushy and cold for me... =p are you glad to hear that mum? hahahah!
mmm okie. i need to be off now! gonna have a few study days for the next couple of days. ;) otherwise come friday morning - i'm totally screwed. lol.
soooo peace out. and stay warm. =D
