So let's see.
Canada was a lot of fun. We spent the majority of our time in Winnipeg and spent a day at Lake Winnipeg. That was probably my favorite day that we spent in Canada. A lot of the people we met asked why we decided to visit Winnipeg opposed to the bigger cities in Canada. The truth? It was a straight shot up from Omaha. The easiest drive and wanted to go somewhere we haven't been before.

| Our drive to Lake Winnipeg |
School has started back up and I am proud to say that this will be my last Fall semester. I am finally graduating next Summer. Going to have a Bachelors in Business Administration with my concentration in Management and minors in Marketing and Gerontology. This has been a long road and I am so ready to be done. I decided to pick up the Gerontology degree a couple weeks ago, so this will be interesting.
I've also started taking Korean classes to prepare myself for my trip to South Korea next summer. I am going there in hopes of meeting my birth family. I've learned how to write my birth name in Korean as well. It's 은 숙 박, which translates to Eun Sook Park. Busy busy this season.

As far as music goes...
Haven't really been to any concerts since Maha. I was able to finally see the Wombats last month and that was a lot of fun. Being the nerd I am, got to meet them afterwards and Matthew recognized me. That was fun. Oh and we took our friend Patrick to see Mumford and Sons. It was at this venue called Pinewood Bowl and it was so lovely there. I worked the shows for Train, Mat Kearney, and Crosby, Stills & Nash at the venue over summer. I wish Omaha had a venue like that. It was an outdoor venue. Also, Motion City Soundtrack is coming here, but not sure if I can make it because of class.
I had such high hopes for the music releases in September, but have only really enjoyed The Avett Brothers, "The Carpenter." My suggested listening for this album is, "Live and Die" and "I Never Knew You." There are plenty of other great songs on the album, but those are good starters. Mumford and Sons was alright. The only song I really like off that album is, "Below My Feet." I've been listening to a lot of Frank Turner and Angels & Airwaves a lot lately.

Five friends and I spent a weekend in Minneapolis visiting some friends last month. Our friends wife invited us girls to ScrapFest at Mall of America. No, it was not a music festival... It was a scrapbooking festival. I have never seen anything like it before. It was lines upon lines of people waiting to make a free craft. Making cards and such can be fun, but that was just too extreme for us. Surprisingly we were all able to share a hotel room!
Well that's about it!
