crazy week.

what a week! I am so thankful to finally be relaxing and watching the canucks rock it out.  I managed to make it through this week alive- wrote a midterm today and feel like it went pretty well.  this week felt like a bit of a marathon, going from no school and then jumping right back into it was a huge adjustment.  I didn't have a spare minute the past four days.  I managed to squeeze in a couple yoga classes- a great vinyasa flow on thursday served as a fabulous study break.  unfortunately, the marathon doesn't end here.  the next two weeks will be equally as crazy while all our teachers squeeze in as much material as possible for the time we have left.  then a few exams and summer time!!  regardless of how busy it has been I am SO thankful to be back on campus and finishing my semester while collecting all the credits I deserve! thank goodness for no more strike.

just a few updates on my vegetarian adventures..
