so i have arrived. yesterday, after a brief but beautiful goodbye with my mother i was off to the island of provo, but first i got a chance to hang out with the entire calgary flames team which happened to be at my neighbouring gate. a truly canadian experience, lauren redgate would be proud. i found a lovely young g.o. whom i had met at my interview, julie, from timmins, who kept me company not only before and on my flight to miami but also for my three hour wait before my flight to T&C. we hit it off like peas and carrots and although she is off to Columbus Isle in the Bahamas, i believe we will keep eachother informed and maintain the rookie G.O. support system. i arrived at my village to find a very welcoming group, and after a brief tour and run down of my activities for today (which include working the busiest shift) i was off to sleep. i ate with an entirely french table, je ne comprand pas, but i have no doubt that i will (have to) learn french in a timely fashion. my orientation starts in two hours where i get inducted with my nametag and beautiful garb. my life as a guest is quickly drawing to a close.
it is still very surreal for me to be here, and i have had a lot of weird things occur that make me feel as though this is where i'm supposed to be right now.
love to all.
