Out with the old in with the NEW!

Merry Belated Christmas! 

I know I haven't written since last week and everytime I talk to my aunts they are always saying how they are waiting for a new blog post so here it is :) I hope you had a great Christmas. Mine was surely interesting to say the least.. 

30 people in one house, being stressed to the MAX with jazzy jazz crap. Let me start from the beginning.

Friday December 24th: We had alot of cooking and baking and cleaning to do parce-que we were going to Levis' house for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and coming home on boxing day. So I was in charge of making biscuits for like snack or something, I don't know why I wanted to make biscuits I just thought it would be cute. So I made them and they turned out pretty cute and totes delish! Please note the Christmas and Snowmen cheese biscuits to your right! :)

I was house managing that week and was rather stressed out so I put alot of love into these cute little things.

Ryan and Zoe made gingerbread cookies that I didnt get to try because everyone ate them. They must have been great!

Note cute gingerbread cookies to your left.

Everyone had different jobs to do and my house managing partner only had one thing to do which was put the leftovers in containers and put them in the freezer so we could take them with us to Levis. We all got ready and finished cleaning and left the house at 2pm. Myself, Sarah, Katelyn, Ryan, Brandon, Zoe, Marc-Andre and Isaac took the bus to the ferry over to Levis, while Kyra, Evelyne and Jared went in the van with Rachel our PC. 
We got to Levis and had to eat a little dinner because we were going to this mass and were going to eat dinner there but it wasnt going to be for like 5 hours. I went to look for the food that my house manager partner was supposed to packed so we could eat and guess what! YEP! It was left at home in the freezer where they left it. CUTE HUH!? At this point my blood was boiling and going to hurt someone. Alice the Project Leader in Levis gave us food to eat and while I was putting the meat pies on a tray to put in the over this certain someone said some people have to learn to lighten up. DO NOT say that to me when I am mad at you! I ended up telling him to get away from me because I didnt want to see his face and a few other nice things in from of a crowd of people :) very lady like I know! We ate our little dinner and got bundled up to go to the mass.

After the mass we played some games with people from the community and the 3 katimavik groups. After the dinner we went back to the Levis house and we all just hung around and didn't do much. I went to sleep at about 1 am and woke up at 10:30am Christmas morning. 

Saturday December 25th: I woke up and called my mom and dad and family. How I missed them on Christmas. We didn't do much at all. For most of the afternoon Sarah, myself, Kyra and Katelyn were in the room where Kyra and I were sleeping and just laying on her mattress that was on the floor. We ate chips and drank pop and laughed about stuff. That night we had a dinner that was kind of like a potluck but the Beauport group and my group both brought dessert, this just added to my stress because I was already upset that we weren't organized about the night before. I made carrot salad with celery and some other jazzy jazz and it turned out pretty good. I had a small breakdown after I finished doing the salad because I was quite upset with my house managing partner once again. I went to the living room where Sarah and Katelyn were and just started crying. While other people were laughing around me I was crying. It was a bit embarassing but whatevs. We ate 

dinner as a huge katimafamily.

What we ate for Christmas dinner.

After dinner a bunch of us decided to go down to the St.Lawrence and have a grand old time! We had a little dance party and it was a great time. After that we went home and me and my friend Zack from the Beauport group laughed for hours. At about 2:30am I went to sleep and was woken up the next morning by Kyra telling me that Isaac wanted to leave in 10 minutes. I got up and cleaned up my sleeping area then got the stuff that we could carry with us onto the ferry and started our trek home. Isaac, Jared, Ryan and Marc-Andre, Evelyne and Zoe left early so it was only Me, Sarah, Kyra, Katelyn, and Brandon who got the later ferry. When we got home I went to get stuff for dinner at the store and some people went to the mall. Boxing Day was a pretty relaxed day.

Monday December 27th: On Monday we went to Quebecadabra with the Levis group and the Beauport group. Quebecadabra is a look at the past present and future of Christmas in Quebec. We only really found the future and it was kind of creepy. I didn't get any pictures because I didn't bring my camera on this day. I do have a picture of the katimafamily though in Old Quebec.

Anyways. Monday night me, Ryan, Marc-Andre and Zoe went to a cafe with Zack, Elyanne and Veronique from Beauport, it was nice :).

On Tuesday we went to watch a Quebecois movie called L'Appat and in the night people from my group and Zack and Veronique went out to Old Quebec and had a fun time :)

Yesterday we went sliding at Stephane's friends Chalet and I felt like a crash test dummy. I would fall off my crazy carpet and just roll down the hill until I hit a tree. It was pretty intense! Then again last night, Ryan and I met up with Zack and Elyanne from Beauport and we went to a cafe again. I went out 3 nights this week that is the most I went out in the last four months in one week!

Tonight I am staying in and resting before New Years because it is going to be FUN! All 3 groups are going to be together again and we are going to have a huge party!

I hope you liked reading this small novel that I have written. I think I am all caught up on what has been happening.

Have a wonderful New Year and be safe!

XOXO Sara

you're smarter than you think, and braver than you know!
