YYZ-GLA-BHX


Well.. Sorry for the lack of posts in the last week! It was been a crazy busy week! We graduated on Friday, and it was a fun day. There were around 135 of us graduating, and 46 Pilots as well! We all piled into the hanger and had a nice little ceremony!! Immediately after the ceremony me and Angie peaced out and went to Toronto!! We stayed in a cheap hotel! Air Transat paid for us to go home for a few days, so I arrived home on Saturday and was there until thursday! It was so nice to get home and spend time with Mom! Its basically all I did, other then fill my tummy at nanny and baba's every lunch time, which was wonderful!! I headed back to toronto on thursday, and air transat put us up in the delta downtown for a few nights! It was really nice to be exactly in the middle of all the action. I can't say I ever dreamed I would be a city girl, or even enjoy the city, but I am loving toronto so far. Its just so amazing to have ANYTHING and everything you need at your fingertips.. literally! We are waiting to hear from our landlord about when we can move in, we will be moving into a basement apt in Brampton, Missisauga. We have it for June 1st, but we are hoping the people that are living there now will leave before then so we can have a few days to set up before we have to fly away! Since we have been in toronto we have pretty much just been eating, and having some drinks, and shopping and exploring! We walked around a lot each day, and went to china town, and the kensington market, and then we went to a Blue jays came today, which was awesome! We left our car near the airport and took the bus/subway to the city. Imagine.. two east coast girls trying to get downtown by ourselves.. so this is how it worked.. we asked the front desk how to get to a bus station, she told us. we went. we get on the bus and then we didnt know when we had to get off. so we asked the bus driver, he wasnt too friendly, and didn't help us at all really. While we were stopping at a stop we "thought" we had to get off at, we asked a nice lady beside us if we were at the right stop.. she said no sit down and stay on until the last stop. so we got that far... While we were on our way there, two guys around our age got on our bus and were dressed in blue jay apparel. perfect.. we can follow them.. we struggled to keep up at first, then just decided we'd tell them. turned out good for us. They brought us right to the seats at the jays game, and even gave us a beer for the ride!! we sat with them and 4 other guys they met up with.. it was fun! we had pretty decent seats, and the atmosphere is actually surpringly better then a hockey game.. in a way!! The weather has been the shits here lately, been rainy pretty much everyday, but looks like we have a hot week ahead! Tomorrow we have orientation at the airport.. get the ins and outs of the whole thing.. it will def be cool!! We got our schedules also! I will be flying to scotland every friday this month, and staying until sunday or monday.. and then coming back.. I am also flying to birmingham once as well for a few days! Its gonna be an exciting month!! Everyone got really cool schedules! I am on my first flight with two other people who were in our class.. so its a relief that I won't be the only new one!! Thats my latest!! Hope everyone is enjoying the warmer weather!! Can't wait to have a few days on the beach in between shifts!! thinking of all the family at home this weekend, especially minerva, dwayne, and mel,... and of course my mother!xoxo
