Sailing has stopped.. finally.. soccer has started, and so far that's been good. I'm playing for the school team. There are some exchange kids from Germany at my school, which is cool. My teachers are all really nice, and so are the people in my class, which is great!!!
My parents are still wondering wether we should be going to Europe next year for three months or not. Right now I think my mind is set on going on exchange to Europe next year, if I can get a scholarship!!!
We will be hauling the boat out soon, and doing some work to it, to get it to wrok a little better.. fix up the hull.. Mum and Dad are planning big renos on the house too... Skylights in the living room, pushing the ceiling up to the roof.
I'm now out of optis, and not really missing them. They were getting a little slow...

bye,

Steph

school has started, and it's actually great.. I mean, other than the fact that I got homework the 1st day back. Everyone in my class is awesome! One girl just moved here from Singapore, which is pretty sick. Opti provincials were this week, and I helped out on the RC boat. My friends got back from notionals in BC. It would've been fun to go, but plane tickets.. well.. if I want to dive in a competition elsewhere.. then.... only one trip for just me a year.. unless my mum gets something out of it :) lol. I joined the soccer team. Now all I need is a pair of cleats.. and a hair cut.. not that that really has to do w/ soccer. Though I pretty much stink at soccer. It should be fun, if not embarrassing..
Marine came in 1st in the green fleet in provincials.. she should be getting out of that fleet by now. She isn't really allowed to stay in it any more.
Long weekend... mentally.. Ugh.

Steph :D :D :D

Ugh. School. Tomorrow. Marine is lucky. She starts a day after me. I'm going to a private school, which means a kilt, and for those of you who know me well enough, you should know that me+kilt/open-bottom-dress-thingy=bad combo. But at least I don't have to stress much over what I will wear in the morning.. not that I normally stress over it, which is kinda obvious. I was reading the blogs of some of our friends, and some have continued on south, or across the pond. Meander, an Australian boat we met in FL is in Europe, And also Migo, another kid boat, is down in South America, from what their last blog entry says. It's nice to have a link to that old life, even if it makes me sad...lol.. Maybe we will make it to Europe.. buy a canal boat there, and do the canals in France. Hoping we will! Next year though :( ... ... ... Wishing I was on the boat, or w/ some of our friends from away!!!!!
