Good Bye, Old Friend

To friends of Grizzwald, our faithful dog of 11 years:

I am dealing with the feelings, the only way I know how.
So, for those of you, who read my blog, and have known him...
here are some wonderful photos to remember him by.

He was a great dog, more than that: a confidant and a friend.

I will always remember camping with him, using him as a chick magnet at the Mission Folk Fest, hanging out with him in mom's hot summer abbotsford basement when i was unemployed for a month, pulling out his knotted fur, wrestling in the grass, sticking peanut butter to the roof of his mouth to watch him struggle, making him jump into the lake at lac la hache, watching him put his head out the car window and resemble Falkor the Dragon from The Never Ending Story, seeing him play with the new kittens in the house, play with his rattle kitten doll, lick our cat Shaquille, sleep side by side with Mortimer, chase after balls that I only feigned to throw for him, take him up to the top of Miller to poop, let him chase after bunnies at heritage park, blow a low Bb on my sax in his ear to wake him up, and most of all just pat his back and rub his chest and scratch his ears and tickle his feet and grab his tongue and blow on his nose and cuddle with him on the futon. He was an amazing creature and God Blessed us when we received him as a rolly polly little puppy without a name. He was there for half of my life, and I will miss him dearly.

Rest In Peace little guy... we love you so much.

Here's the photos:

The Next Step...

Hello Friends,

Well, it's official: I have a job! and I am SO excited!

I have accepted a position working at the University of Victoria for next school year!

I will be a Residence Area Coordinator working for the UVic Department of Housing, Food and Conferences Services. I will be on a team of 3 RACs, each with 17 staff members. I will start on July 1^st. Other details (like which area) are still in the works :)

This is a very exciting opportunity for me; one which resonates with my current experience, but also offers me the chance to work and grow in a new environment and develop new skills and competencies; and also one which doesn’t send me too far away from home, UBC (so I can still visit and keep in touch with family and friends).

I look forward to a great start to a promising career, and plan to keep in touch with my roots as well!

To all of you who have been there to support me in whatever way, thank-you very much. :)

Keep in touch!

In Vancouver until end of June… 604.328.3170
