All Done Undergrad

And here I am. 4 years later and I'm done my undergrad. I'm still awaiting a few grades, but I'm sure I passed. Time for some new adventures! I am incredibly excited to be going to India this fall to volunteer with Girl Guides for 3 months. (September - December) I plan on blogging that trip, so I figured I'd try and get a bit of practice in this summer. Which is why I am blogging today. The last couple of days have been pretty exciting.

I finished my last exam on Thursday evening and had my final presentation for Honours on Monday. The presentation went ok, I got pretty nervous so I think I was a tad shaky. I most definitely turned red at some points, (one of the lovely bonuses of being blond) but I was told it was good. I'm not happy with how it went, but that's life and I'm sure I'll have plenty of more chances to practice my presentation skills. :) After the presentation I went out to dinner with my class. We went to this really hip place called Su Wu's. The walls were black, but it was very well decorated with plants and mason jars hanging from the ceiling. It gave it a very dark look from the outside, but a really nice green atmosphere inside. I had my first deep fried mars bar for dessert. It was pretty great!

The next morning a few friends and I went up Mont Royal to see the sunrise. It was pretty spectacular. I spent the rest of the day packing and relaxing. I met up with my friends from res to watch Birdman and hang out. I was not a big fan of the movie. I really liked the filming and the music, but I don't think I would watch it on my own. 

Now I'm on my way to Kitchener-Waterloo to celebrate Grandma's 95th birthday. Looking forward to a more relaxing week. :)
