2nd Semester - Almost Done!!!

I have said it 100 times and I will say it at least 100 more but I cannot believe how fast the time has gone since I've arrived at CFOT. I have now been in Winnipeg 7.5 months which seems at this point both forever and a blink of time. I have been pulled in a dozen different directions, faced a whole new set of stresses than I'm used to and had some of the best experiences of my life.

This semester included the travel portion of my year so far with a trip to Vancouver and Grand Forks under my belt and the trip to Newfoundland for commissioning yet to come. I cannot deny that it has been an opportunity filled time while I've been here. It can be hard to juggle those opportunities with the demands of school, field and other activities however it's been worth all the fatigue and time crunching to fit them in.

I have learned huge amounts this semester through my course work. The courses all have practical aspects to them and it's exciting to see how they all mesh together and mesh with courses from last semester. Now, here's hoping I can remember a chunk of this information...good reason to keep my textbooks for now :).

Once again I find myself looking back and wondering how I could have made it through and the only answer is - by the grace of God. I am thankful for some great instructors who have been so willing to invest the time and some great laughs in the classroom which made the time speed by all the fast.
