Surprises

Isn't it funny how our hearts and brains work?
My last day working for Citizenship and Immigration Canada is coming sooner rather than later and I find myself much more glum than I would have expected.

Over the last 4 months I have met some wonderful people and made some great new friends.  I have learned lots about the immigration  system in Canada which has been very interesting.  I have learned that my friend Sarah is AMAZING at multi-tasking and rather miraculously manages to keep the entire office running smoothly.

Sure there are some people I won't miss as I have spent the last couple of months simply tolerating...I have thought on several occasions that our education system may actually be failing us!  I am amazed that some people were even hired as they are barely capable of speaking either of our official languages, but at least they can do the work~sort of.

I have laughed and cried because I was laughing so hard (fizzants, what exactly are fizzants?) several times over.  I have felt frustrated, appreciated, and accomplished all in the same day, all the while pondering if it really does all have to come to an end?

Please don't get me wrong, I cannot wait to get back to teaching (I really miss my little monkeys) but if I ever really need to choose a different career, I really hope that I will be blessed with fun, intelligent co-workers like those with whom I am currently working :)

I guess it must be time for bed, I am having a very difficult time keeping my eyes open and the typos abound!
Just before I go, I am going to get all "religious".  I feel very blessed to have found this wonderful job and I thank God for Sarah and her uncanny ability to somehow make things happen ♥
