Because Eventually I Have To Die, Maybe
As the joke goes…”Camping is in-tents”
This is just a quick hit! Number 581 on my list was to go camping again. I vaguely remember going as a child, camping as we travelled around. By “vaguely” I mean I have a strong memory of camping at Niagra Falls and it raining so heavily that I could feel a river moving under the tent. Sidenote: I was also terrified of thunderstorms at the time and there I was, in a tent, during a thunderstorm. Fantastic. I went again when I was 10 or so with my parents and family friends, and it was just awful. So, naturally, I out-and-out refused to go outside or near trees for 15 years.
This summer I managed to overcome my deep fear and went camping a total of three times. And all three times I set up the tent. Oh yeah.
#581. Go camping again

Last summer I packed up my school bag and an over-sized purse, met my friend Chris at the airport and took off for a month. I roamed through Montreal, Toronto, Guelph, Oakville, Kingston and Manhattan. I took the Greyhound, VIA rail and the Metro. I crashed on couches, slept in cramped, stinking hostels, and rested

I went today somewhat on a whim and took my “Learner’s Exam” as we refer to it here in Alberta and I passed!!! I can start (legally) learning to drive and in a year I can take my driving exam and cross off #42 on my list.

Alright, this is just ridiculously overdue. Two weeks and then some! My own laziness is what is to blame! I should have blogged about this so long ago, I’m just sad that it took me so long. There’s really no excuse, I haven’t been up to much lately, just sitting around not doing much of
