Sorry for the delay in posting - I've been out of the country with (very) limited internet access, and a million and one things to do. Thankfully, I'm back now, and we can let the kindness continue! :)
SOOOO, here's an update on all you've missed:

Today I went on a 6 hour flight with a completely full plane... I had randomly been assigned the window seat, and in the spirit of AoK, I offered my seat to both of the people sitting in my row. Neither accepted the offer, but I made the effort (and trust me, it took a LOT to make that offer).
Also, just as a side-point, I met a really awesome guy from Switzerland while on this flight, and even though I was TOTALLY antisocial the entire flight (I thought he only spoke french) and he didn't have to go through customs (since he was taking a connecting flight to somewhere in Europe), he still offered to walk with me and carry my (super huge) carry-on to customs. I declined the offer, but it was a AoK that made me smile :)

Today I went touring with a friend through Old Montreal and the Old Port (both SUPREMELY cool places to visit), and to get around, we took the metro, a bus, and the metro again. On our way back, it was rush hour, and so the train was FILLED. Once one seat opened up, I was about to sit down, and then realized that there was an older guy sitting next to me, so I offered him the seat instead. It looked like he appreciated it, and later on two seats opened up for my friend and I, so it all ended really well!

For today's AoK, I went to help my friend and her older sister help set up their classrooms for the upcoming year.
Also, tonight I went to a wedding, and while there I was accosted by a very grumpy, french-speaking, elderly lady, who literally grabbed my purse and refused to let go until I heard out her request. I was not so keen on this idea, being that I dislike grumpy elderly women who take my purse hostage, and yet for my AoK, I did my best to stay cordial, and I went ahead and brought this woman all the cookies and deserts she requested... at which point my purse was returned, and I got a very brisk thank you before speeding as far off as possible!

Today I left montreal, and returned home after a spectacular vacation from my real life :)
Though my parents insisted they really didn't want anything, I bought them a souvenir before leaving and made sure to get montreal-themed toys for the kids of a family friend. All of which were greatly appreciated, thank G-d.

Today I drove 30 minutes out of my way (and braved the freeway alone - a daring feat in and of itself) to say goodbye to a friend, even though I had a lot to do and my mother wasn't so keen on the idea. If, she's reading this, I'm REALLY gonna miss you C, and I'm sorry that my visit was so short! Be safe! :)
And that's all folks!!!!
Keep it Kind
& Keep it lifted!
