YAY!!! ACTUAL INTERNET!

As I mentioned in my last post, I moved to Edmonton :)
I am sure I had many stories of awesome to share, but seeing how it took almost a month for us to get our internet modem, I have forgotten them. For now, I will just do a quick update on what has happened in the last month :)

First (and most exciting) thing:
I GOT FISHIES!!! I have posted this fact a bazzillion times on other social media sources, but I just LOVE talking about them, so I will continue to do so.
I have three fancy goldfish.

One black moor (Hubert), who is either really smart or really stupid. I love him either way though :P He is usually just chillen in the castle or behind the castle in the bubbles, trying to get away from Tael's nipping :\

And

two calico fantails

(Tatl)

(Tael)

They pretty much do everything together, although Tael is always the first to check new things out. Tatl just sort of follows him and aides in his bullying of Hubert. You can't see it in this pciture, but Tatl's left eye is all black. I don't know if that is because she is missing it, or if that is just the way it is colored.

Second thing:

Canada Day in Edmonton is wayyyyy cooler than Canada Day in FSJ.

(Engage!)

Third thing:

The bus isn't as scary as I thought.

I went to Southgate to drop off some resumes. That was an experience and a half, but I won't post many details in case potential employers happen upon this little blog of mine. One thing I will share is my embarrassing moment of the day. I went into a store (not going to say which one) to ask if they were hiring. I also wanted to look at guy's graphic tees. So, I went boldly into the store to look for a second while the lady at the counter was helping someone else. Naturally, because I am in the guy's side of the store, someone asks if I need help finding anything. I turn around to say, "Yes, I was wondering if you're hiring," but I turn around to see a BEAUTIFUL Asian man was the one who asked me. He made me lose my words :( Soooo, needless to say, I did not ask if they were hiring, but just shook my head and meandered my way to the exit. Yay for looking like a moron in front of beautiful people >_<

Anywho, back to the bus.

After I was finished handing out resumes, I had to take the LRT then bus home. I was pretty intimidated. An ideal situation would have been Shandra going with me, but she had to work so she could not :( I first went in the wrong door, or so I thought anyways. I went back outside to find the stairs' door. Found it, and realized I could have just gone down the hallway with the first door. Rookie mistake I suppose. The rest of the LRT ride was pretty boring. I saw some more beautiful people (this is where they have been hiding!!) and awkwardly sat by myself, trying to not look at anyone lest they start a conversation with me. The bus terminal was a bit more eventful. The weather outside today is less than enjoyable-windy and rainy. It feels more like late fall here >_< It took me a while to find the right bus stop at the terminal. I guess I looked like a seasoned pro (ha!) because a group of tourists asked me how to get to West Edmonton Mall from there. I offered to look it up on my phone for them (another side note- I would have died without my Google Maps app today!), but the directions were too complicated for them to remember so they left to find someone who actually knew what they were doing. After waiting for what seemed like forever, and thinking I had missed my bus, the bus arrived, albeit a bit later than both Google Maps and TransitASSIST had said. Then I went home haha Nothing even remotely exciting happened on the bus ride back :P

That's all the new news I can remember. I will update with more Canada day and miscellaneous photo's when I download my pictures from my other camera :)

Byes!
