The volunteer workshop and some much needed sleep

As I was working until 11 PM yesterday and consequently only went to sleep around 1 AM, getting up at 6:30 AM was pretty tough this morning. Nevertheless, I had to get up since I wanted to go to the volunteer workshop at the Beacon Hill Farm.
I managed to be there at 8:30 AM. The workshop was mostly just a short explanation of all the important buildings and tools on the farm as well as the rules we need to follow. After that, we visited all of the animals and signed up for our first real shift. The most interesting fact I learned was that the peacocks which you can find all over the farm and Beacon Hill Park actually don't belong to the farm - they are considered wild animals and just take shelter in the farm grounds.
I also met and taked a lot with Xue (which means Snow) from Shanghai, who moved here a bit more than a year ago to live with her Canadian husband. After the workshop had ended at 10 AM, I walked to the bus station together with Xue and then took the next bus home. Since I was out of bread, I also made a quick stop at the bakery.
After arriving home I went straight to bed to sleep some more. I actually slept until 3 PM which was probably a good thing since work was quite exhausting again tonight. After I got up from my nap, I only took a shower and cooked some dinner before I got ready to take the bus to Downtown once again in order to go to work.
We were quite busy at work tonight, which was nice because it made the time go by faster. As I had to wait 20 minutes for my bus home, I walked to the harbour and took a nice picture of the Parliament Buildings by night.
