Wilbert's onSite experience

Long time no post....

Hey everyone,

Things are going well for me. French is getting better, and I am making some friends at the university as well as at the youth group. We are Christ's Ambassadors wherever we go, and it is most important when I am interacting with classmates at Laval. They already know that I am a Christian and I am studying to be a pastor. I did get a chance this week to talk with some of the students, they know what I am doing, but they do not fully understand why I would do what I am doing. Hopefully, in the coming weeks, I will be able to tell them more about my story.

Youth group was pretty cool as well. A couple of weeks ago, we had a guys' only hang out time. We played Wii and watched Les Transformer. It was pretty cool. Last Friday, we had a discussion group like always and this time we talked about the music that we let our ears listen to. It was pretty cool, and of course it was all in French, so I could sort of understand some parts here and there. I do know that the it was a big discussion and that the youth are very vocal.

Finally, Due to some of the limitations that various different online photo albums have, I am now moving my entire youth group pictures to webshots. For all you onSiters, webshots is pretty neat in that it allows you upload 1000 pictures + 100 every month after. Not too sure of all the details, but it is pretty cool. You can check out my pictures here. (Link opens in a new window.) My Flickr site will be updated on the last day of every month so I can load as many pictures as I can with the limitations. I will use flickr to upload some of the best shots and most defining pictures of my onSite. For my facebook albums I will upload everything else like my university pictures, scenic photos and random shots. Finally, any really important pictures will of course be posted here on blogger as usually.

(Nov 11) UPDATE: I have updated the slidebar to reflect the changes that I have said in the post.
