Bitter first, sweet later.

So,

In recent weeks, Bublé has grown on me. I don't care that he seems to cover every song under the sun. Seriously, the guy can sing.

It's August officially. I'll be moving to Vancouver soon. Or surrounding area. Also known as MB's hometown. Possible sighting? Highly unlikely. Even if it happens, I'm not the person who'd run up to a celebrity and gush over him or her, asking for a photo to brandish in the faces of my friends. I'd just stare from a safe distance, call someone on my cell, and whisper furiously that I was staring at a famous person from a safe distance. 

And people call me sanguine. Ha.

Anyways, the reason I'm moving to BC is because I've been placed at SFU as a Catholic missionary. Pumped to the power of ten is pretty much an understatement. I mean, it's bittersweet. Moving far from home and away from my family? Bitter. Moving to one of the most beautiful cities in the world to talk to students about God and teach them to teach others about God? SWEET!

To quote Bubzee:

"And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's You, it's You, You make me sing.
You're every line, You're every word, You're everything."

In this song, 'Everything', he's singing about a hypothetical woman. I capitalized the 'you's because it fits in praise. It works well, don't you think?

I love Michael Buble. His voice is like...indescribable. I want to say like silk, but it's a little more rugged than that.

I'm so glad you're doing what you love!
