island roadtrip = success. like i said before, i can never be really unhappy behind the wheel of a car. and even if i am, it's the best place to be. behind the wheel has always been my favourite thinking/brooding place. luckily, there was no brooding necessary on this particular trip. almost too bad, it was some pretty cool misty westcoast brooding weather.

it did rain the whole time, but we made the most of it anyway. the highlight for me was scoring a beachfront campsite in the best campground in town (which was supposed to be fully booked until september, but they had cancellations due to the rain), setting up camp, and then hopping into bikinis and running screaming into the ICE COLD pacific. the other vacationers walking up and down the beach in long pants and full raingear looked at us like we were crazy. some even asked us if we were crazy. good times. drunkenly learning to spin poi, homemade campfire sauna and running stark naked back into the ocean (with phosphoresence!) at 3:00am also rank pretty high up there.

anyway, now that i've gotten a little more vacation done, i'm ready to get down to business. i've got that heart-bursting-love feeling for this place and my friends, but it's time to move on before i get stifled here. so i shall be taking up residence in my kits sublet monday and looking for a job... though likely still a temporary one. still unsure about the fall... but happily so. for the time being, anyway.
