CAMP NEWFOUND~

i'm here! at camp! after a 10 hour drive and 2 hours at the border...i made it to camp...alive! yippee! I ended up driving 2 people about half way which made it nice...i think i would have cried if I would have been alone in the car-I miss my Chicoutimi family - ma mere, ma soeur et ma coloc!
Precamp was fun-lots of activities and work...and of course, some flat bread! I love their delicious pizza. The campers are here now and it's busy. I leave on a trip on Tuesday-base camping and hiking up to little mountains :D It's 9 PM and I'm exhausted...down the hill I go to go to sleep...
I hope everyone is well...sorry for this short post.

To my Senators

I haven`t posted in a while...life has been plugging along up in Chicoutimi! I had a test an oral and a presentation, all of which went well enough :D
Last night the Senators played game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals and lost, ending the series and giving the Cup to the Ducks...It was hard to watch and what made it worse is that you can probably count the number of Southern Californian`s who care about hockey on one hand. I thought about wearing black in mourning today, but I decided not too ;)
In better news, I got my VISA to the US today-after much seeming disaster, it has all worked out in the end. A week from Saturday I will be making my long long drive down to Harrison, Maine, for a summer a second Newf summer!!! Once again I learn about TRUST!
Tomorrow night there is a big party at school where we will get to dance the Quebec-folk songs we`ve been learning. I think it should be fun...hopefully I can remember the steps because normally I forget them right after she tells us what to do!
Sunday we go to Tadousac to go whale watching!
I really can`t think of too much to say-I saw `Les Invasions Barbares`(spelling is wrong...sorry!) and found it really good...sad though.
Alright, I`m off to a few more hours of class...take care :D
