it's time.

obviously i've deleted all of my last posts.
i need to start it over, move forward and just stop dwelling on stuff.
updates?
i came back from thailand 2 weeks ago, and it was by far the most awesome experience of my life.
the culture there is so different, so many little things we're used to and take for granted (like toilet paper) weren't there.
we helped get/prepare food, feed and bathe rescued elephants who had all been severely abused, and it was really awesome.
elephant nature park is a great foundation, and if you don't know about it then look it up.
we lived in a hill tribe for 4 days, that was really cool, but very dirty, smelly, and there wasn't much of anything there.....it was pretty ghetto.
we then did lots of cool things for 2 weeks, snorkeled/scuba/kayaking/climbing/trekking up mountains/visiting temples.
amanda got dengue fever so we had to spend a couple extra days in chiang mai for her blood tests, but it was good because we didn't miss much.
being there just made me realize how fortunate we are over here, they don't even have clean tap water.

as of now i've been applying for school and things...nursing in edmonton.
i really hope i get in, but it'll be weird not knowing many people over there.
i've been going out and visiting my old friends, meeting new people and just trying to move forward.
most of the time, i'm not really sure what i'm doing.
