Happy New Year!

So it's been a while since my last post. It's now the end of a busy and eventful year spent reading in the University of Bradford library and eating too much pasta and pesto. But I am officially a master in conflict resolution!

Since the frantic submission of my dissertation in September, I've been travelling, took a week long mediation course, lived in Dublin and spent a lot of time on the web looking for jobs. It's been a slow and restful time. I moved to Dublin in October and have been in and out of Katz and Wilson's house since then, travelling in between. My other siblings, Mika and Ray, are also here at the moment spending the holidays together. But after the holidays, more changes.

After three years and five months in the UK, I am moving back to Vancouver. According to what I've heard, many things have changed in Vancouver. It will again be a transition for me but I am looking forward to spending time with family and friends I saw too little of these past few years. I can't believe it's been over three years already.

As a new graduate, I always get asked my future plans. The problem is, I don't have plans yet. Of course I plan to work and move forward in a career in making the world a more peaceful place but as for next steps...I'm sure it will come at some point in 2007.

So 2007 already. I'm not sure why I'm still writing here since I've probably only written three posts this year and my mom is probably the only one who still persistently visits this site but maybe I'll be a better writer this year.
