Still settling into my new neighborhood, haven’t met anyone yet, save my sister's friends who are all around age 12.  Finally found a job, and now settling down into it.. It's only one day a week, which sucks, but money is money.  Looking for another job in the area since I can't drive my car.  Gas prices are so high though driving would just suck more money from me. Though the steep prices also keep my friends from driving out to see me much. I'm resumed my anime and manga collecting to keep me somewhat busy when I'm not doing housework.

Other news... My boyfriend's grandmother passed away suddenly and that was sad, but on the up side: One friend moved back from Quebec to the Valley with her Fiancé -whom I still need to meet and welcome both of them home- A close friend was proposed to and now engaged ^^ yea! So I have to weddings to look forward to and after another couple, which I've known for a while, were just married in July.  So a lot of couples and happiness and such going around lately...  (And no, nothing will be happening for me for quite a while... Still saving up for school and my dream of escaping my sister and moving out. Devin has school and work and is quite busy. But we're celebrating our 1-year anniversary this month, so I'm happy)

 My little cousin is growing up nicely, he's celebrating his 1st Birthday in November, and that's going to be fun...  Been spending time with my family, stayed overnight and hung out with my Grandmother for a day, we both enjoyed that. Then my Aunt, Uncle, Grandfather, Father and I all took a day off and went sailing out past Stanley Park on English Bay.  It was a wonderful experience. I can't wait for Thanksgiving next week and more family time...  I've learned, enjoy them when you can, you never know when they'll be gone.

Well that's all, I'll try and remember to update more often... or you can check my other site - scottishrose.deviantart.com which I try to update also.
