Life's Still Go On

Greetings!

Even though there is no school, the days are still running. In fact, the month of May is almost over. I did not have school over a month! Time runs non-stop. However, it is good for a change. This summer my life is still running with a different suit.

Without school, I have myself occupied with some works. I work part time at Trinity, mostly for the conference that are going on there in the summer. And, what do I do? My profession is cleaning, vacuuming, and set up beds. Yes, it is a different life. At the same time, I also work on the farm of my guardians/family.

Within the month of May, I receive a few surprises. I remembered clearly how my guardians are so clever at keeping secrets from me. All day long before the surprise, I have worked quite hard on the yard and the surrounding of the house. I was told that there will be a board barbecue. I mowed the lawn. Pressure washed the fence. Everything looks neat and spectacular, but I did not know the real intention. That day when there should be the board barbecue, I was, then told that it is a party for me?!

Yes, everything was all for me. A surprise party for my acceptance into Nursing at Trinity. I found out less than an hour before the party! Ha ha...What a nice family I have. What really surprise me the most was how my family were so sneaky at keeping the secret, and told me otherwise. As a result, I did not know what to do for the party. I just "smile-and-wave". :)


A few weeks ago, there was a rodeo show in Langley, BC. The country fair show. It was spectacular to see the many events with games and prizes. At the fair, I got another surprise. I wish I have brought the camera with me. The cows and the horse. They are huge! Wow! I never see such big animals in my life. There were three huge milking cows, and a horse that is use for hard labor. I just cannot believe it. Well, now that I see there is such huge animals.

I shared with you already about my attempt to get a learner for my driving skill. And, here it is!
I hope I will not cause any worries :) since I received many comments from my family already, "Learner = L -> "Look out!". They like to tease me :)
However, one thing that I am doing quite well is controlling the mower and the tractor.

So far that is my journey. Life on the farm is very good. As always, there is also application I can learn from these various jobs. I already learn some skills concerning nursing, though it is a bit different. With raising sheep, there is always interesting facts about their breeding cycles, like bringing the lamps into the world. And with the two cows, they are growing bigger. They are quite scary, but it is avoidable.

That is pretty much with my May-Life. I am looking forward to the future and what will bring as I continue to experience my fabulous life in Canada.

Thank you all for your supports and prayers.
Many blessings and love from our gracious Lord Jesus Christ!

Sureyah
