I gots me a bachelor's degree. Cum laude. woo! My parents came to visit and my brother as well – we went downtown, looked at an apartment (quite a nice one, at that…. cool neighbourhood with big old houses and huge trees near Main St), bummed around Granville Island, visited Chinatown, eschewed Capilano for Lynn Canyon ($22 to walk across a bridge? feck off), had dinner at the Afghan Horsemen… mmm.
Grad went fine, though boring… linguistics was the last department to walk, and though I'm the first in the department alphabetically, there's only 12 of us and it took like an hour and a half at least for everyone else. James' dad took us out for dinner at Charlie Don't Surf later on and we walked around White Rock for a bit.
Sunday after church we went hiking at the Chief – I think I underestimated it a bit, it was overly challenging for my mom and maybe my dad as well, but they made it to the top and back
In good time, too… my brother and James went off ahead and when we got to the top they were nowhere to be found, so Mom and Dad pretty much ran back down, they were that shit-scared. The boys were sitting in the parking lot waiting for us. heh. Then James and I had dinner with his mom at a jazz club in Kits. Good times.
Back to work this week…. :/ le sigh. Two more weeks.
