Sooooo last time I updated was after frog follies and so much has happened since then! The week after I worked by myself because Lowen was house managing with Gerard. Work is sooooo intense like lots of labour work, digging, moving heavy things etc but its for a great cause like restoring the musuem and the outsides of it. Anyways that week was pretty hard but the weekend was alright. We did activities and had KCC and right now I cant remember what we did wowwwwww ill get back on that another timeee but anywaysssssss
the following week Martyna and I were house managers!!!! Gotta say I enoyed it big time because it was so chill and def a huge change from working my ass offf. the week before hand all I remember really is coming home, showering, then passing out until supper was ready. The first days were stressfull because we were incharge of meals and everything and the cleaning, making bread, everything around the house. The first few days we just did huge clean ups so the rest of the week we didnt have to focus so much on th cleaning part because making supper for so many people takes a lot of time. Bread takes sooooooooooo much time too because there are 3 waiting periods and each of them can take an hour. I think two of the suppers our bread overlapped tht period and it was kinda in the way and we had to continue it after supper. Great thing about cooking though is that you dont have to do the dishes! Theres the housemanager schedule that repeats for dinner dishes and sweeping and cleanup of the table and putting away the food. Our meals were planned ahead of time which was easier but our meals were apparently really good and everyone enojoyed them which was great. Some nights we did wing it because we were so tired of cooking by the end of the week but it was still good. The cleaning only took us like one-two hours a day which was good because it was simple things because we worked hard the other days trying to do it.
On the wednesday and thursday I think it was we all volunteered at Roseau River Provincial park thinkin it was like a festival or somehing but we actually just painted the park and the bleachers, outhouses and allllll that stuff. there was looooootttttssss so paint so the first day we only did the primer coat and Marisol took us that day so that was good. It was fun but I got covvvvvvvered in paint so I ruined my black slushy pants and my katimavik shirt but I wasnt the only one. I tried washing it and soakin it overnight in vinegar, cleaner, all the hard shit and went through the wash too but nope. Whatever adds character! My only shirt for 6 months wooooooooo lol The Thursday Martyna and I didnt bother to go because we had so much shit to do and grocery shop for the next few days and such so we stayed home. That morning I woke up at around 6am with the biggggggggest cramps of my life so I was up from then to about 8:30 when everyone left then I past out cuz I took like 5 advil and I woke up at 1:30pm sooooo shocked cuz I was just gonna sleep until 10 or something and I saw Martyna sitting at th computer and im like WHYYY DIDNT YOU WAKE UPP I FEEEL SOOOOO BADD and shes like ohhh no worries I finished everything :) soooo then I went and made bread and yeaaah felt like shit but there wasnt much to do anyways and she kinda wished she went painting but I was so glad I stayed home. Anyways on the weekend we were informd we had to pack lunches for saturday and sunday for when we went out to places so it wasnt that bad people just got sandwiches, fruit and stuff lol
The week was great and the weekend was good too because everyday we went out and did something. On Saturday we went berry picking n the morning and to steinbach in the afternoon to some pioneer festival also chilled with the Stienbach group bcause they volunteered at the festival. Sunday we went to Winnipeg and went to the St. Boniface musuem and also saw the St. Boniface group because we parked at their house. It was cool because Gab gave us a map after and we all went dowtown Winnipeg and did stuff and walked around. I also got my nipppppppplesssss pierceddddd wooooooooooooooooo. kinda expensive but so worth it because the guy was soooooooooooo niceeee and I felt sooooooooo comfortable with him it was crazy!!! I was so hesitate on doing it but everyone convinced me so I did. It was cool that Danielle got her eyebro pierced after I told her it would look good on her, Gerard got his ears and JD got his spaced to a 10g I think i dunnnno. Lowen stuck around and Martyna and Spencer went off and did their own thig. Everyone else was off doing their own thing too. We had to meet at Folkorama our next activity at 5pm but we were like 10 mintus late but it was alright. I walked both ways on the way down I went with Spencer and Martyna and on the way back with Lowen and Danielle who both had bikes so I tred to walk fast but yeaaahh. The folkorana was good we went to the Carribean pavillion and watched dances and performances and saw venders and had carribean food which also didnt settle in my stomach so we had to stop on the way back to the house at a coffee shop because I was dying but ANYWAYSSS it was a good day :) I was debating between 1 or 2 piercings but im glad I got both.
Yesterdaaaay mondaaay was a holiday so we went to Gimly to the Icelandtic festival, theres was a parade and a bunch of things which we had to find because the fstival was spread all over the town but it was a good day. I got fuckin burnt to shit but I didnt even feel hot while everyone else was boiling. yeah i was a bangs, necklace, tanktop and lots burn like evrywhere on my upper body well not everywhere but you get the point whoever is reading this.
Today Lowen and I worked super hard in the sun and dug out stuff and cleaned the suger shack once again and we didnt take a break so we finished everything and got to leave at 1 :) Rolly wasnt there but another guy on the council was and gave us instructions. The sun was super hot but we both battled through it even though were probably the most burnt in the group lol
We have lots of fun stuff coming up so ill just have to write about it another time!
