Day 62

I really remember enjoying those sunny and windy days where we would go fishing and have picnics down at the water with no flies around to bother us.

Day 61

Ahh, I miss being young..

Look! Kathy was sooo small..

Day 60

I really miss the camping trips we had as a whole family. I think this camping trip was the most awesome camping trip ever. We went as a whole family. And I am positive that I shot my first goose on this camping trip.

I hope you enjoy the pic, it's funny!! XD

Day 59

Haha, ok. My sister downloaded her pictures from 2004 all the way through 2008.. I found some of me from funny glasses to extra pounds to weight loss to finally decent glasses.. LoL

This is me with the glasses I can't believe I had, but would want to have again, lol. Those guitar days when I "knew" how to play well.. But I've recently tried going back to it...

Day 58

Loving someone is setting them free, letting them go.

Letting go is one way of saying I love you.

So baby, I'll let you go.

(Day 57) Hold On - Good Charlotte

This world
This world is cold
But you don't
You don't have to go
You're feeling sad, you're feeling lonely, and no one seems to care
You're mother's gone and your father hits you
This pain you cannot bear

But we all bleed the same way as you do
And we all have the same things to go through

Hold on if you feel like letting go
Hold on it gets better than you know

Your days
You say they're way too long
And your nights
You can't sleep at all
Hold on
And you're not sure what you're waiting for, but you don't want to no more
And you're not sure what you're looking for, but you don't want to no more

But we all bleed the same way as you do
And we all have the same things to go through

Hold on if you feel like letting go
Hold on it gets better than you know
Don't stop looking, you're one step closer
Don't stop searching, it's not over
Hold on

What are you looking for?
What are you waiting for?
Do you know what you're doing to me?
Go ahead...What are you waiting for?

Hold on if you feel like letting go
Hold on it gets better than you know
Don't stop looking, you're one step closer
Don't stop searching, it's not over
Hold on if you feel like letting go
Hold on it gets better than you know
Hold on

Day 56

After fishing, I started taking pictures of my mom fishing. I took a lot of pictures of her in different angles and this one was my favorite one.

Day 55

Fish caught in one hole..




And I thought this was cool.. After spending hours at the spot, it was time to go.. and leave of trails, tracks..

Day 54

Day 53

"Cuz I love you, like you once loved me."

Day 52

My beautiful angusiak..

Got him naked and took pictures..

x3.

(Day 51)

Okay, I finally took the time to get back on track with this blog. Sorry for making you go into an empty-looking page if you checked my blog.

I went home.. Yes, my home and only home. Where my lovely big family is at. I'm really happy to be here. I feel like I am whole again. Since I came back, there's not much I have to say.. Haha, that's not true. I slept in like a crazy sleeping person. I ate lovely yummy goose meat twice, mom's macaroni, mom's spaghetti, mom's burgers and Nikita's sushi. I missed mom's food and Nikita's yummiest sushi. I also went to grandma's to just chill there.. Slept over at my sister's. I saw my angusiak and believe it or not, I worked once.. I'm still looking kinda for a summer job............. Please God let me find one!!

God please let me say this with some feeling.. *I finished 2 years of college!! It seems like yesterday that I was enjoying my time in high school. I miss high school and everything in those times. I miss the best friends I've had before. Those crazy girls who made me crazy, lol. And believe it or not, those guys who were in my life before. I'm not naming people, but I am just going to spit out that I kind of miss having the carefree high school life where you don't have to worry about jobs and careers and college and just living a good old teenage life. I use to think that life was hard during those times, but from this point of view, I want that life back... Funny, but maybe I just have to move on. Nobody really told me what to do. I just go with the flow and just go with the flow, haha..

YUP, I still have one more semester to finish and then I'll be a college graduate. Unbelievable, but it's true.. Haha.. Who in the world would think that Sapina Snowball would graduate from college. I know I wouldn't... ha!

Don't ask, but I don't know what I will do after college.. I'll keep your posted when the time comes.


Now, take the time to look at this picture... What do you think?
For me, It's really sad to see the ice melted before I even went on it. Just last year, I flew over this place and saw ice and snow.. but this year, it's a whole new different landscape. I saw black terrain and water.. For me, it's just really really terrible.. But now think of the elders and imagine what they think about this..

(Day 50)

Day 50!! Already... But still, it feels like it's been forever that I've been blogging.. Hmm.

Okay, today's photo is of Sandra. She is currently the secretary of Ulluriaq School. I've worked in her place last summer. When I got back, she told me that I will replace her whenever she needs to be replaced, hehe.

While I went to visit the school with Gillian, she asked me to take a picture of her so I did. I do not really know Sandra that much, but she sounds like the person you would love to hang out with. She stayed at our place in the south one time. She is funny and makes you laugh. She makes the day worth to spend time with anywhere and everywhere we went. Plus, she knows how to party, haha.

(Day 49)

Gillian, Gillian, GILLIE! She inspired me in the first place to blog. So, I've been kind of blogging since! Well, I try hard to! Hehe. She was awesome enough for me to try her 50mm lens. It was much cooler and heavier(lol) than my current lens.
She is currently on her year off and traveling around this world enjoying her time off work, I think. She was here in town for a couple months.. and I had the time to visit her for a while before she flies back to her mommy.

Gillian is awesome. In every way, I shall say. I see her as a really positive person. I don't see any negativeness in her. She keeps smiling and laughing. I like her attitude. She has a childish one and I love it. Not childish in a bad way, but like.. Coming up with something that a 5 year old would say or do. She is not all that into serious things.. But like -I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT! I could say that she still has the child in her. All very fun and not boring! Goodness, I hope you understand me!!
I admire Gillian. I would like to be following her steps. Teaching, taking time off and traveling the globe, to playing video games, to visiting awesome friends, to taking neat photos, to camping with people, to just living life...

(Day 48)

Let me show you again, how I have the most beautiful angusiak in the world. I can't believe that he changed in the matter of weeks I was down south. When I went back home, he got so big, already! Every time I see him, I just get like all lovey-dovey, lol. I just fall in-love. His so gorgeous, beautiful and gorgeous, wait I said that already!! World, Caroline Etok has a beautiful son. SHe is gifted!! How I love him and his strong young mommy!

(Day 47)

Just couldn't help, but capture the moment of this thingy.. LoL, I don't even know what to say about it. Everywhere I am, Everywhere we go, whenever she wants, she has to put some of that icky-yicky stuff on. haha!

(Day 46)

Living in the westest village of Montreal.. You take the bus for as long as 1 hour to get to downtown. It's not always fun, but it is like the only way when you don't own a car..

(Day 45)

The fridge of a college student.. LoL, but I've seen better than this.. :P

(Day 44)

Cheers to the fun, crazy, wild, exhausting, hard, do-able semester.. Haha, I ran out of words.. Nothing like a taste of something when the semester ends.. Everyone, give yourself a big pad on the back for making it through!! You deserve it!

(Day 43)

Springfest!! One amazing day for a college student. You get to play, chill and just be with your friends and enjoy the last day of classes in the sun!

(Day 42)

Got fish?

(Day 41) Freeeeee Birdy

Phew, doesn't it feel good not to carry that backpack around and not having to worry what work is due tomorrow????

I wanted new faces for my blog..
This picture was taken months ago.. probably in February..

Ullu Avati Marrut (Day 40)

One crazy stunt in photoshop.

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Quliungngigartulu (Day 39)

I created this little "pop art" style montage when I was a rookie to Photoshop..
Not the best, but I liked it back then.

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Sitamaujurtulu (Day 38)

This image contains two images. One from google maps and one from the internet.. I had to create a homepage for my little website and this is what I came up with. All the stones of the inuksuk have a link to each page that I made..

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Sitamaujungngigartulu (Day 37)

I was at Lucy's the other day and I was on Sandra's Macbook Pro. I found Photoshop Elements and I created this little image. Not the best because I was eliminating the background quickly with a hangover. The newer version of Photoshop Elements that Sandra has is awesome. It makes me want to get a new computer.. o_O

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Pingasuujurtulu (Day 36)

The best photo the I enhanced for my portfolio..

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Tallimallu (Day 35)

I usually don't take pictures of flowers because I am not too fond of them.. But one time, when we were walking around at night, I just took one.. And tonight, I photoshoped it and eliminated the background and put a neutral one..

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Sitamallu (Day 34)

I did a photoshoot with the girls.. I got like 200 pictures with them.. Eliminating the ones that I had to trash because they weren't focused or they were over exposed.. I used four lamps for the session and used the manual setting on my camera.. I had the aperture wide open and used a rather fast shutter speed.. Took a while for me to get used to.. but I got it.
I picked this photo because it represents these girls..

Try and figure it out. hehe

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Marrulu (Day 33)

It's May!! 2nd already! I'm going home this month for the summer. I got my itinerary and I hop on the plane on the 17th. I'm having doubts on the date because I want to go home right away, but at the same time, I want to spend some time with my other friends that I barely get to hang out with. If I won't be able to hang out with any of them, I'm going to try and change my dates to a closer date. However, my other inuk friend suggest we throw a party when I will not be able to drink. Pfft.

This week will be the last whole week of the semester. I have seven more school days left minus one because I have no Friday classes.. MINUS TWO ACTUALLY! Because the last day of classes is on Tuesday, May 11 and that will be Friday for us. So I have five more school days. It's a bit unrealistic because I still have a lot of work to do. I have three major papers to write. One due this week on Thursday and two due on Monday... I am not working on anything right now because I am not under pressure, yet. I usually work hard only when I am under a lot of pressure. I don't know why, but that's how it is. I'm one big procrastinator and I don't mind it, sometimes. Haha. I actually planned to start working on it today, but it didn't come to me and I didn't go to it either!! Hahaha.
It's going to be a bit hard for me to let go of another great gym class. I really enjoyed all my gym classes this semester. I met some pretty great people in that class. It's not just about the people for me, but it's also about the sport. I really enjoyed most of my gym classes. Played like no other!! LoL. Badminton is like hockey in the summer when there is no ice. It was really nice having to smash out some of the negative things from the semester. And I think I had the best partner ever in my badminton times. Her name is Lorraine and she is one smasher! If I had to pick one partner in a tournament, I would pick her! We defeated all, if not, most of the guy teams in our class. We got some compliments too that we were "one best and hard to defeat" team. Most of the time, we were known as the "asian" team because my partner was asian and I look asian apparently. But I had to reassure them that I am inuk.

It's sometimes annoying that most people that don't know me think that I am asian. It's like I have to tattoo "I am Inuk" on my forehead or get a T-Shirt that says that I am Inuk. I try not to let it bother me, but it gets to me sometimes. I have so many funny stories about people thinking and saying stuff that refers to an "asian looking inuk."

Okay, I should probably get back to my school life. It's crying out to me like a crazy baby.

PS: Thank God I have no more french classes.

I'm missing Joey tonight.. So I photoshopped some photos that have Joey in it.
I present you, Joey Norman. My big sister's pride and joy and Love..

Ulluk Avatillu Qulillu Marrulu (Day 32)
