Swans, Sun, and Sporadic Fog

The glassy water and warm sun were really making me wish I had a boat and some waterskis or something!
The swans were out on the pond!

So, the day started out looking like this...

...but transformed into this! It was so beautiful and warm outside. Unfortunately, it only lasted for a couple hours, and then the fog came back.

Apparently one of the sheep got a little too close to the barbed wire!

Watching the swans and feeling the sun on my back.
P.S. Thanks mom and dad for sending my scarf with Mrs. Hinz!

I do not have normal lectures this week. Monday to Thursday is all workshops, seminars, and team time, where my team and I will be preparing for our 10 day outreach. Sadly, I have to miss the team time on Tuesday and Wednesday evening for netball. We have two games this week; if we win both we will move from second to first place, I believe!!


Kim and I have started working on our travel plans for spring break, and I'm getting really excited about it. We still have a lot to figure out and book, so I really hope it will all start coming together soon.


Also, as of last week, all my assignments and tests for this year at winter school are finished (except for a memory work test at the end of term). The tests here are really interesting--they were all multiple choice/fill in the blank/true and false. I say they were interesting because if you chose the wrong answer, you didn't just get 0 for that question, you got -1! So technically, if you got half the questions right, you would still end up with a 0 as a mark! Kind of brutal!


Yesterday I had salsa for the first time since leaving home! It was so delicious! So much flavour (something I am now not used to at all)!


I will be starting Ephesians in my Bible reading tomorrow...it's been really exciting reading the Bible from cover to cover.

  1. Hi Erika,

    Your netball team must be amazing this year - hope you girls win your games!

    Also, we loved the photos you posted today - your new hair colour (notice I'm using the correct British spelling) looks great! Nice jump, too!
