So What's My Story?

After 3 years of being a poor social worker (the work I loved, the pay I didn't), I decided it was time to go back to school and get my Master's! After weighing my options (school far away from home, or school in a different country that is only an 8-hour drive from home) I decided to try my luck in British Columbia, Canada.

For a year I lived in
Surrey, BC while attending Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, BC. However, as the final component of my work toward my Masters degree in Criminology I have moved back to the states to complete an internship at an Independent Living Program for youth leaving the foster care system.

Here is the story of my adventures as a graduate student in a "foreign" country as well as my current work back in the states.

Sins of the City

So I just discovered that Vancouver has a police museum! lol... I am probably a little too excited/intrigued by this fact. I am a criminologist after all! =)

Not only did this building use to be the coroner's facilities, but now it hosts birthday parties! Their website says that the parties are only intended for kids 4-12, but I want the forensics one! lol

I definitely need to check it out this summer when they start up the Sins of the City Walking Tour again... I wonder if I'll be able to find anyone to go with me! =)
