The number of days astounds me. Especially when you consider that at 4am , I, along with the Kelowna group, Vernon group, and Kamloops group, will get on a bus that takes us to our last stop as Katimavik Participants. Its scary to think that as soon as we step off the bus and into the airport, we will become Alumni. We are the new Past Participants that will be the newest out come of the program. Terrifying.
Today is our last day and it is spent filling paper work, finishing cleaning and then going out to eat. Looking around this house, it reminds me of Quebec. How all the walls were bare and all the bunks were stripped. Its a strange sight. The girls' room, which held 6 girls lives, is now emptied. We talk about what we will do when we get home, and what we will miss about life in Katimavik. As Nicole so eloquently put, she will miss "Hair in the sink, curfews, unauthorized rides, CCK and protocols." We clearly do not use sarcasm in Katimavik.
Fun fact of the day is that Levis became Kamloops and now I get to see them again. A little visit back to my old cluster in Quebec is very much welcome right now. I will be able to talk to people who know my group, my real group. I love Kelowna, but I left my heart in Vanderhoof. As boring as Vanderhoof is, I miss it dearly. Just going to the Bean, and Fields and regular trips to the Post Office.
Now I'm looking at heading home. I know that my friends are missing me, and I can't wait to go back to them. Through this program, I learned who my real friends are. The ones that like me enough to go out of their way to see me and keep me updated. I can't wait to get home.
Everyday is a new adventure, so no worries
