This weekend still went way too fast. I cannot get used to be alone again by sudden.
Ryan came back from work only for this weekend and he had to head back to work overtime for 10 days. And whennever he comes back from work, he always stays with me every single second. So we both know each other what we have done or what we are doing or what we are going to do. We never get tired of this though.
Last Friday he drove me to do the ultrasound as usual but this time he didnot stay there, waiting. Instead, he went to Kingsway Mall. I thought he felt tired waiting for about half an hour so I allowed him to go. After the ultrasound, he still hasnot come back yet so i was starting losing my patience. After about 4 mins, he showed up with the sweet popcorn. I then yelled at him because of my waiting. He instead tried to calm me down. hahah.
After dinner that day, he hugged me ,saying : " I want to give you a chinese Valentines' gift now. " " U dont have any gift . I know u. we are together for 24 hours every day. Impossible that u will have a gift for me. " He then jumped out of bed, going to get the gift .But he turned back to me. "Just joking, I dont have a gift. " We both burst into laughter. But he didnot come back to bed. Instead he kept going to get the gift. I was really shocked and kept thinking how come he got the chance to do shopping since we stay together every single second. Anyway, I was so happy to have the gift as I had been looking for it . Thanks baby for the gift.
Whennever he comes home, we always have a lot of fun together, laughing a lot. Now he goes to work, this house becomes so quiet again. I really couldnot get used to it . A little sad but nothing I cannot do.

A Fun Morning
This morning I woke up and headed to breakfast right away as I was really so hungry. The moment I finished my breakfast, the doorbell rang. This really shocked me as it was early morning and I started getting scared as I thought there were some bad people. U know, when Ryan is not around, I always imagine anything scary. hahah.
So I went to check the window and It was Mark, our Mark. I felt relaxed but I didnot open the door right away as I just woke up and i was very messy. He then said " Is anybody there?" . "Yes, a moment please . " I opened the door and ran to upstairs to brush my teeth and wash my face. After a while, I found out why he turned up so early. It was an interesting story but I couldnot share here. So then I warmed up the chicken soup and let him try some. Luckily he doesnot dislike it. hah. After he tried the soup, I did a bet with him that If i can access to your email and he gives me 50 bucks. But he bargained. This man ,even started bargainning with me. But it was fine because I was quite confident with winning the money. So I accessed his email in front of him and I got 20 bucks. hahah. I started to burst into laughter. 20 Bucks! not bad ! heheh.
I asked him to drive me to "save on food " to get some cherry but there was no cherry avaible and he said "Sophie, buy me lunch" " give me a reason why I have to buy you lunch ! " " because I m your friend " . Oh well , now that he said that, I woud have to buy him lunch. But remember I m a smart girl . hah " I don't like India food so lets go earls or Moxi's and I will use the 20 bucks to buy your lunch and if it is not enough, then you pay the rest !" Smart, right ? Yes I was . Everyone knows that it is impossible to get a nice meal in these restaurants with 20 bucks. hahaha. So there we go. We went to the earls in south Common and I ordered steak while he ordered pasta. Only my steak already cost 22 bucks which doesnot include the GST. Hah. So in the end, we spent about 58 bucks there and he had to pay the rest. hahahha. It was fun.
He is our Mark. Ryan and I love him. Next year we are planning to go back to China once I get the PR card and I hope he can go with us again. I m pretty sure we 3 can have a lot of fun together because he is a funy and nice guy.

Dizzy All Day
Not sure what is going on but I do feel dizzy quite often recently. I cannot stay in front of computer for even 15 mins. Looks like what I can do now is just go around the house and do nothing.That really sucks.
I guess I dont have enough blood in my body, which is resulted from my weird diet. I eat vegetables and fruit all the time and I don't eat meat often. Sigh! But I think I have to change this poor habbit now and try eat more meat. Whenever I eat steak, I find it hard to digest and I will have to stay full for a long time. So hopefully this could be changed.
So we are going to have steak again once Ryan gets home this week. Excited as I do like the steak in Earls or Moxi's .

Waiting for dog show in Super dog place      4 tickets to get this meal (4$)  After the two days activities, we kept going even though we were so tired. So here we were. We went see some shows in the Heritage day. This was my first time to have this kind of holiday in Canada. The so-called Heritage day ,to me, means a lot of cultures shows because this country is composed of people from many different countries, like Russia, France, China, Korea, Scotland ect.. Below are some pics I took.        |

Suprises
I would have to agree that life should be full of surprises and romance.
I would have to say I do like some surprises at times, which make the life more colorful.
Before I always told Ryan not to spend money on roses because they go very fast even though they look nice for a while and I was not so into flowers and chocolates . He then stopped buyings any flowers or chocolate for me unless he gets my permission. But he broke this rule yesterday .
After he finished his work, he was going to take the company plane home. Yet the flight was delayed again and again so then he would have to catch postponed flight and get home at about 8 pm. But, you know, he was supposed to get home as usual at 5 pm. So I was really losing my patience because I had been waiting for him for the whole week and I was getting bored, also I had been expecting him to come home at 5 pm. So, I was quite disappointed . But what I could do was waiting and waiting.....Finanly I saw our car and I knew that was him.I then ran to the downstairs ,saying : I m angry. I am angry, ask your company to pay the waiting fee. He then said : "will the chips make you not angry ? haha ? " I love chips, that is true but chip cannot buy me happiness. haha " They cannot pay the waiting fee but you can smell the beautiful roses all weeek. " he pulled out 12 beautiful red roses. haha, That was a surprise . you know, without my permission to buy flowers. But honestly I definiately love them. Thanks baby !
Today I told him that I wanted a TV for the main floor as I didnot want to go to the basement to watch TV as it is too cold for me and too dark for me. Even I turned on all the lights, I still didnot like the scary mens rooms . I know it is a nice basement and I love it but I m pretty sure it is for 2 people, not only me. hahaha
So he decided me to buy me the TV. and there we go. We bought the TV and I have my LED TV now. Thank you baby again. !

Birthday party
Yesterday I has been busy preparing for my husband's 31-year-old birthday. This is our first time together to celebrate his birthday. I was quite nervous though as no one ever celebrated my birthday before and I never went to attend any birthday partis. So I really didnot know what to do for this party . But in order to make the party nice and to give a surprise to him , I did my best .

Camping
Last thursday Sears was supposed to deliver some furnitures to our place according to the delivery date the salesman offered when we placed an order on 20th June. But they didnot come in the end ,which really irritated me a lot because 1) they kept calling us, informing us that they would deliver them 2) even they couldnot do it, yet they didnot advise us at least one day earlier which really ruined our plan for my baby's vacation. Even now we havenot got any furniture from this damn store. I DO really have very poor impression on sears now .
Anyway, our vacation still had to be going on . My husband had been planning to go camping with me. So I just let him decide whatever he wanted to do. Why? That is all because he has been doing a lot for me, for this family.
We did the road trip to banff for camping. Honestly , I m not a good camper .I prefer to stay in our nice & cool house instead of going to the wild place for feeding the mosquitos. But for him, I tried my best to stay there for two nights instead of two weeks as planned. = ) . Also we did some hiking during the daytime. Here are some pics which I took during this trip.
After banff, we drove to Revelstoke city to look for hotspring and cave which he was planning to do. He is extremly addicted to hotspring . heh. I like them too. But It was really damn hot that I really didnot wanna go do anything. So in the end he got all the information , yet I decided to give up and head home. So there we go. We are at home now, nice and cool but got rainy days. = ( .

Being Busy
We have been being busy after the wedding, moving to a new place and shopping for the furniture. We also shopped for a car too for the convenience, which really cost a lot of money even though it is only a simple car. June is really a busy but happy month even though there are some downs.
Now I am living in a nice townhouse instead of the simple apartment. But waiting for my husband to come home never changed. Due to his job , he would have to fly to another place to work for the whole week and then off for antoher week. So sometimes I feel quite lonely to be alone at home. U might be asking why not go work? Well, I would like to go work when my husband is away, working. But the problem is I m still not allowed to go work as I m still with chinese passport ,being a vistor. Now what I can do is hope the immigration agency can work on my papers asap . So then I can help my husband with all the expenses.
This week I am at home alone again , but my aim for this week is to clean up our new place ,trying to set up some stuff to make the house look nicer. After everything is settled, I will then post some pics of my new place to share with you guys.

Wedding
Had a lot of fun in my wedding yesterday no matter how much I had complained before. There were a lot of people coming over but I don't know them except my friends Chloe and Mark. Most people are from my husband side. But that is fine. I don't mind to know more people. =) . Anyway, I will attach some pics to share here.

Gloomy Day
Couldnot cheer up today even though the wedding day is drawing closer.
I have been in Kenora since 27 May. But What I can feel now is I am kinda stuck here. You must wondering why so . It is very hard to explain but I can tell in brief that I cannot enjoy here. Ryan has been very busy preparing for the wedding so that he has no time for me. Before he came to meet me here, he said that he would take me wherever I want to go. But he didnot do that. So I keep being bored every day even though I regard the sleep the most happy time for me.
Honestly,I am more excited for the new house than for the wedding. I hope the wedding date can come quickly so that I can go back to Edmonton earlier. In Edmonton ,I believe that I will have more freedom and more comfortable.

Pampered Chef Party
Today my parents-in-law threw a Pampered Chef Party for us which is my first time to have this type of party and it interested me a lot. The way it works is we are given a magazine with all the Pampered Chef items in it along with the prices. We can go through it and pick the ones we hope to get and write them down in a list for guests to see.
There were quite a lot of people who came over to enjoy the party; Drank some wine, ate some snacks and also cooked some pizza's with the same items people could buy from the party. But don't make a mistake, we are not selling any items, haha. They are there for people to buy for themselves and to buy for us for our new house as a wedding present.
Talking about pizza I really love the SPINACH pizza most! It had parmesan cheese, spinach, alfredo sauce and bacon. mmm. I wish I had a picture to share with you, but take my word, it was very yummy.
From this party we got most of the things we chose from the selection book. It will be quite exciting to use all these new items in our new kitchen. Hopefully we can move in with a new car on a new sunny day. haha
So the wedding day is coming soon, 7 days away. We have a lot of preparations left to do with setting up tables, table cloths, gifts, candles, flowers, etc. ha, so much to do and not enough time. I will tell you more good news about the wedding next week. So exciting!
