blogging away in nicosia
Tuesday, 1 August 2006
well, this is about it . . .
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: Coldplay

While trying to avoid being sucked into and assimilated entirely into Canadian culture, I'm certainly having trouble.  Fighting the desire to buy stuff, including snacks and eating out, and songs from iTunes.  Have rediscovered the ability to waste hours on the internet.

SIGH.

I'll keep trying to integrate Cyprus with Canada, though.

But this blog is coming to an end.

All good things must come to an end.  Except Eternity and the New Jerusalem and Jesus, etc.

This blog, you may have noticed, is called "blogging away in nicosia."  I am no longer in Nicosia.  I am in Ottawa.  And tomorrow is my first official day as a normal person.  I start work at Subway and am no longer an employee of IVCF.

A chapter in my life is through.

I'm glad for the gradual shift.  None of this "Arrive June 17, start new job June 18" kind of thing.  Instead, I arrived and spent the end of June and July visiting supporters and telling people about Cyprus and tying up some loose ends regarding Cyprus, and then finding work and settling back into Canadian life.

I miss Cyprus sometimes, though.

It's weird.  Hard to explain.

I'll post one more time when I have my new blog up and running.  Otherwise, this is it.

The end.
