Home Sweet Home

Here are some of the sights that welcomed me home this weekend. After a very grueling (but worthwhile) three weeks of non-stop activity, I can't tell you how happy I was to just be home.

Missed photo opps

The campus of Royal Roads University really is beautiful... or so I heard. During my 20 day stay, there were only two or three days when it did not pour rain and those days were inevitably ones when I was busy working on big school projects. Besides two quick shots of Hatley Castle,

my only other shots were of a cruise ship passing by at night (taken from my desk where I was still working on those big projects), my humble dorm room and those blasted peacocks! You'll have to stay tuned for a better tour next year.

Life has transitioned back home... where I spend most not-at-work waking hours in the basement working on two more even bigger projects. I expect to come up for air in early July- see you then!

Clockwork

Dorm life has been a big adjustment for me and I dearly miss the autonomy and comfort of my own kitchen, bathroom and living space. Along with communal fridges and showers comes with the very noisy trek of campus wildlife as they also return here to my dorm (where they seem to live as well) around 8:30pm in preparation for bed. Here is the conversation that occurs.... EVERY night.

Then, between 8:56 PM and 9:08 PM, this happens:

He seems to be the Big Kahuna on campus... and I'm quite thankful he stops screeching around 9:40pm. Am I the only one who didn't realize that peacocks can actually fly and sleep in tall trees?!
