grades have been posted!

Well, York has finally posted our grades, and I got straight As this semester (Phonology; Syntax; Ideology & Everyday Life; Sexuality, Gender, and Society). It's pretty much what I expected, though Phonology might have gotten bell-curved because I was hanging around a 78% for most of the semester. This means good things for grad school applications!

In other news: I crocheted two full pairs of green and blue slippers today and just about ran out of yarn. However, they are done and are cute and are part of a larger engagement present for Janice and Mike. They won't be checking this site until after they move to Prince George, so I'm not too worried about posting that here, pre-present-giving.

I'm going to Brockville this coming weekend, arriving on Thursday and leaving on Sunday. Holly: I probably can't play on Thursday night, as that's my only time with Janice and Mike, but perhaps Sunday afternoon? Doug, Chad, Trevor: I fully expect a rendez-vous at some point. Friday/Saturday/Sunday, it's your call. Who else is left in Brock Vegas? I have no idea.

Oh, and did you all know that Edward Skelton Jr. is getting married next month? THAT is going to be a riot. I'm inclined to go simply for having the pleasure of Tyson's sarcastic company for a day. :) It'll be a strange mix of old roommates, EBC alumni, and Brockvillians. Also, if I go, it will mean TWO weddings on bible college premises in one month (the other is at Tyndale, Ms. Rachel Carson soon-to-be Boadway). I'm beginning to doubt that there will be alcohol at either wedding. If I ever get married, rest assured, there will be no shortage of drinks. Heck, even if I have to hire Jesus to come and ad-lib something with the water, there will be alcohol.

Happy Victoria Day (tomorrow) everyone, here's hoping that it doesn't rain on our fireworks!

Oh, and a further question for the home crew: what is typical Dutch food? Other than boerekool? Or dropjes or ollie bollen? And is everyone aware of the pure evil it takes to fill a candy bowl with jujubes, remove the black ones, replace them with salty dropjes, and then offer them to unsuspecting non-Dutch neighbours?
