Last post from Saskatoon...

Well, it's my last day here. I have to say, I had a wonderful time here. I love the people here, and the sights of the South Saskatchewan River are beautiful. It is too bad that my time here is short, but I will return, God willing. I'll catch up with the posts once I return to Waterloo and get rested. And now, I return to a chaotic world.

Coming schedule: Flight home today. Office hours and MYF coworkers meeting tomorrow. Office hours and exam proctoring on Wednesday. Marking on Thursday. And then free!

I know people have complained about this for a while now, and I have complained about it before, but maybe I should say it again. Saying things like "happy holidays" and "season's greetings" just don't make much sense. "Happy holidays" is so generic that really, it can be applied throughout the year. "Season's greetings" is like writing in the beginning of a letter, instead of "Dear Bob...", you write "Formal salutations..." What is wrong with simply Merry Christmas & Happy New Year? Hmm...maybe it's too long? Are we getting that lazy?
