Long time no blog..

Hello there friends, loved ones and strangers...

I have been so busy with school since I got back. My rock mechanics course has pretty much overtaken my life, and engineering geology and open channel hydraulics aren't far behind. However, my sedimentology course, my English course and my psych course aren't so bad. I am working part time this term and taking two fitness classes, so things have been really hectic.

Speaking of fitness classes, I am loving them! Power Yoga on the ball is really a challenge for me, but I am getting a lot out of it. It is a very non traditional yoga class focused on strength and balance. We talk and laugh through it, so that makes it pretty informal. The class also teaches breathing and really cool yoga postures. I find on my yoga days I am generally happier. Aqua fit has been really awesome too. It is one of those classes where you really work as hard as you want and you get out of it what you put in. This class has a lot of cardio work and strength training.

In other good news I found the charger for my camera battery, which is awesome because I want to take lots of pictures while I am in TRINIDAD! I am so pumped, we leave in ~16 days (Feb 14th) and we have a ton of fun stuff ahead of us! Shane (the friend of mine who lives there and who's parents own the house we're staying at) has a whole itinerary set out for us including scuba diving and swimming in coral reefs. Also, apparently there's student $20 all you can drink nights. And there's beaches. And it's 32 degrees during the day without humidex. I think it's going to be a good trip. A great trip.
