Almost 30!!

Hello all,
Well it's been a while since I've written anything here. No excuse. I had a good Christmas, as you can see from the photos. Worked most of the time, so I was able to go to Vancouver for a week to see friends and fam in the beginning of January. Good times had by all. A bit of a dissappointment in some ways, but well worth the trip in others. Always great to see all my family and friends there. Since I have been home it has been back to work as usual. School has been busy and I am very happy about that. Unfortunatly the cafe has been closed and will reopen on Valentines Day. And of course I will be working! Strange to have so many nights off! But I am enjoying it. I have been trying to get my resume and cover letter done to send in with my application to Footprints Recruiting. This is the agency I am going to try and get on with, so they can help me find a job in China. For those of you that don't know, this is the place I have decided to go teach in in September. I haven't figured out where in China yet, so I am open to suggestions! Otherwise it has been work, and I have been trying to get to the gym 5 days a week. This is my goal. So far so good. My 30th birthday is quickly approaching, and I hope to be feeling great as I leap into my next decade. I am planning on going for dinner on my actual birthday(the 7th), and then am having a party at my place on the 10th. Should be fun. I am actually really looking forward to turning 30. I feel really good about where I am in my life and the things I have done so far. I am also happy about my future plans and have very few regrets in life up to this point. Yaa for me! So I leave you feeling quite optimistic and happy about life as I venture into a new decade. Hopefully the adventures continue to be more great experiences to add to my life. Thanks to all who have made it so great so far!!!!! Love you long time my friends and fam, where ever you are! I'll be cheersing you all on my bday!!!
