Tonight was one of the first times I actually got a lighter to work (I am okay with matches but the safety mechanism on lighters give me trouble) and I built and am currently maintaining a fire. How exciting! My first fire and I might add it is keeping me quite toasty inside the house while outside it is a cool 5 degrees Centigrade.
Here is my lovely fire!
A closer look...

Last night during my evening constitutional with Cousin T (which was interrupted by a taxi driver who wanted to give me a lift....ummm, I actually came out to walk but thanks anyway), I saw the Northern Lights for the first time!! The Northern Lights or the Aurora Borealis were beautiful, a dancing green streak across the sky. We went over to Parker Park to get a better look at them away from the street lights...it was amazing! I was excited to see the Northern Lights and I look forward to seeing them as winter creeps in.

A few more life lessons I am learning:
-Don't put off important things in life, like obtaining a class 5 driver's license, it is not worth it. I have had my Quebec driver's permit for almost 3 years now, and if I were in Quebec I could go for a road test tomorrow (in theory), but because I didn't renew it in person prior to leaving Quebec, I have to start all over again. So my written test is next week, and then I have to wait 1 year before I can do my road test. That is a complete and total bummer.
-I have to re-think my whole position on marriage and being single. This is because I have decided that I don't like being alone at all. I will be alone for the next month while my aunt is away, and that is fine and dandy for her, but let's just say I have an overactive imagination and was always prone to being a little scared anyway...so if for no other reason than to actually be around a physical body, I think I may get married one of these days. Now for the not so easy task of finding someone suitable...hahaha...
-This one I already knew from physics class, but I am learning it all over again anyway - for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This one is to long to explain but consider it for a moment...here's an example:eat a tub of ice cream - develop a tub of fat in places you don't want...you may know that one as a moment on the lips, and lifetime on the hips...eek!

I'm out, peace and God bless!

I had had my Quebec permit for close to 3 years, but the actual paper says that it is expired. If I went to the SAAQ in person, I could renew it then apply for my road test, but since I can't go there in person, I have to start everything all over. Anyway this is really all my fault and that is all there is to say about that:(
And it seems that I learn a lot of lessons the hard way, which is kind of annoying lol...even the ice cream one!
