All Over the Place

Wow... in the past month a lot has happened! It's hard to believe that my time here has dwindled from just over two months (in the last posts) to exactly three weeks.
I'll be moving out of here on either the 31st or the 1st, I haven't decided yet, and I'll throw my clothes into my car and drive an hour into the city, unpack my clothes and start my new life. I'm sure there will be a few nights of tears... my roommates are like my sisters and I think that I haven't fully grasped that they won't be coming with me when I move. Ouch, that will be a hard pill to swallow. But also, I'll be faced with the realities of having to find a job (eeek!) and organize my time (not my forté at this point). As time draws nearer, I think I'm finding myself switching into survival (or panic mode), as some might call it. Firmly gripping each moment spend with people I won't be able to hang out with in a few weeks.
But, before that happens, there's been a summer of wonderfulness that I would like to share with you! Pictures are a huge part of my life and although I haven't acquiesed paparazzi status at this point, I still take quite a few.

One of my roommates enjoying the view in Pincourt as some of us got to go
sea-dooing around for a bit.

A super good friend from Calgary was here during the Jazz Fest...
so naturally, we HAD to go!

Last summer a few girls drove out to beautiful Parry Sound and it became one of my favorite places to be! So without hesitation, I was all aboard this summer when we decided to pack up the 15 passenger van and drive the 9 hours to the Georgian Bay!
My amazing roommates...
The sunrise from a canoe at 6:00 am. Yes... you read it right.
Rock jumping!
The view. I LOVE it!!!

I had a bit of a Quebec City withdrawl after not going about five times like we ended up doing last summer. So we packed up the car and headed up there for a couple of days...
I always forget how much I adore it there!

Another place I really enjoy visiting is Ottawa... especially when there are amazing light shows projected onto Parliament! So I took two forgeigners and headed off to Canada's stunning capital city. Welcome to the best capital in Canada! (Haaa....)
The view from the canal of the Alexandra (I think?) Bridge
I was very impressed with the ceiling... it's so intricate and wonderful!
A lady we met at the Eternal Flame offered to take a picture for us -
so we took her up on the offer.
And then Natasha and I needed to take our "annual picture"...

Some of my fav pics we took at the Mosaika light show that night :)



And lastly, a few randoms from Montreal, Canada day and general summer joys,
because, well I think they're great!!
