Mine are not. Who knows, maybe this will be a short post with a sudden ending (am am preparing to partake in a boy stalking expedition with the girl I am staying with), and maybe it won't...guess you'll just have to read it and find out! :D
Anyways, boy stalking is none of your business...so I'm not gonna write about that. Expect the unexpected! Lol, what on earth am I talking about?
So I am still in Creston, living among the rednecks, and I really like them a lot. The big trucks and racist jokes are not altogether appreciated, but the people are good and I'm enjoying myself. Today, and yesterday, I have been super tired so kinda have been working less, but that is ok because I have been working all day every day since I got here, so they are ok with me taking a break. Like I said, they are very nice people. I don't know how they do this every year tho! It is non stop hard work!
Yesterday, I actually got to pick some cherries for once, and I am a natural born picker! I think it is because I have a love of trees...and because I have turned out to be quite an efficient person. How this has happened is beyond me, as I tend to spend about 90% of my time staring into space, but I can just focus and go into my zone where I'm not hurrying, but go super fast. I think it is because I have had so many menial jobs by now that I just do whatever it is without thinking. I have come a long way since my frustratingly slow days at Quiznos...those lineups would be so much shorter now! :P
As usual, I have no idea why I am writing about this, but I have to write about something right?
Mostly I am working at the cherry pitting station, where I am first on the conveyor belt and put the most disgusting rotten cherries on nice little leaves and send them down the belt as "gifts". The woman who pushes the cherries onto the belt and I sit there and laugh, as the girl I am staying with responds quite ungratefully and throws them at us. Good times!
I gotta tell you tho, some of those cherries are pretty bad. Like, if they didn't come off a cherry tree, I for sure wouldn't be able to identify them. Still, I love those things and eat about a billion cherries a day :D
However, they do make prime ammunition for cherry wars...looks like we have come out of a violent battle at the end of the night.
I think I am anemic again tho...haven't been eating anything of substance since I got here, which explain the tiredness. Oops. Maybe tomorrow I will walk into town and buy a whole bunch of spinach...that would cure me. Spinach is the best.
Oh wow, I am tired...now I'm rambling on about spinach!
Anyways, I think that this post is really going nowhere, so I think I'm gonna end it right now...
Peace! :)

Mmmh, are you saying dear Edna that I have a categorized mind?? Ahahah! Love this post! Sounds lot of fun, with lot of work too! But enjoy the warm Okanagan and the nature when you still can, Halifax is really pretty, but the nature is mostly stuck in parks. But those parks are pretty nice too, its just different I'll say then :P. You'll get to see a different ocean, how exciting! But here am I talking about Halifax, when youre post is about cherries......mmmh find the link.... Anyways, I'm soooo stock! My german sister is arriving this sunday, and on this day I get to do paintball, which I have never done and it seems so much fun!! But for once I want to be in my brother's team, because I know he's a better shooter, and he will clearly try to eliminate me as much as he can :P. Damm, the anemic thing kinda suck, hope you'll devore those spinach and be just like that Popeye the sailorman!! LOLL! Can't think of another post yet, you raise the bar each time, I can't post as interesting as you do... :S. Maybe I'll wait after the paintball day, that should be exciting enough to write about.... :D
