I'm Aisling. I'm a "dorkerella," on the never ending quest to be the world's greatest know-it-all. This is my story.

The Pre-Billet Blog

Okay, so this is the 3rd and final time you will have to hear about how I am leaving for billeting tomorrow, and how much I despise billeting.

Actually, to be fair, it's improved each time. Let's reminisce, shall we?

In Kelowna, I was with a lovely francophone family. They were fantastic, but I spent the two weeks being sick, and willing it to go faster since I went home for 48hours the weekend after. Also, they lived so far away, in Westbank. In a big, meticulously clean, even with 2 kids and a beautiful (shedding!) Golden Retriever, house. I would have probably enjoyed it a lot more if I had been able to see people from the group other than at hurried lunch dates or walking by in the street. Skiing was fantastic though, since I'd never done it before, and trying new things is such a rush!

Orleans was much improved. My family was great once more, and a little bit more relaxed. I loved going to church with them! It was Salvation Army, and not only did I love the fact that a bunch of them wore uniforms, but they were also so nice and interested in my life. The old men were so cute! Also, this house was across the street from Joelle's, so I was able to spend a lot of time with her, which was pretty cool. I saw Nick at work everyday, which was nice, and he also came to hang out with us after school one day. Sean spent one day with Joelle and I as well, and Gwobs, Nick, Jade and I went out to lunch for Jade's birthday. So, overall, I was less lonely, had a lot more to say, was a lot more comfortable, and way less sick!

So, my last experience was pretty good. I wonder why I still dislike billeting so? Hmmmm. Well, hopefully this time around (THE LAST TIME!) will be FANTASTIC!

In other news, the last two days were dedicated to delivering the "bac brun" for compost to EVERYONE IN LA POC! Yesterday this took from 7am until 5pm, and today it was 6.45am until 3.45pm. And as a reward for me being so great, I get tomorrow off! And then, obviously, Monday is off to celebrate Canada Day! It's kind of unfair how there are 2 Mondays in a row off here! Ha ha. But good this year since I am here, and I love days off!

Tomorrow is International Kick Gwobs in the Head Day. Juste pour savoir!

Love ya lots!


By the way, I love Alex right now. <3333 she told me to write that- and it's true! Ha ha.

The Next Day....

I forgot to mention that THE SPICE GIRLS ARE BACK!!!!! OH MY GOD, I am SO excited!!!! Sure they're only doing 11 shows, none of which I will be able to see, but it's not like I saw any of their shows while they were still around, so who cares? I can just go back to being a crazy fangirl like I was when I was 10, and everything will be fantastic!!

Luckily a few weeks ago I was able to buy a Spice Girls lunchbox for 2$!
