Sorry about the lack of posts for the past few days. I have been rather occupied for the better part of the past week by a weak-yet-long-lasting cold. After Ottawa, I felt slightly ill, runny-nose, cough, and what not. So Thursday-Sunday did not include any overly exciting events. I hung out with Bonnie, and got Japanese Udon soup! YAY! Sunday night was quite pleasant. I went out with Guillaume and his girlfriend, Geneviève. Dinner in Chinatown first, followed by a FREE film for the Film Du Monde cinéma film festival. The film was a québécois film about the québécois band Les Colocs, filled with québécois seperatists en plus! Yet again without the aide of subtitles, I was able to follow the story quite decently, and it was a very good film overall. The soundtrack was filled with songs by the band, from odd rap to swing. Quite the pleasant evening.
Monday: Jour d'intégration pour la faculté de science politique, or science po, as its commonly known here. It was actually kind of a waste of my time as the hour was spent being introduced to heads of silly departments with even sillier speeches. In the end, the only useful thing was receiving my student ID. Followed by a nap in the afternoon, then dinner with Leah at her place in Côte-des-Neiges. Summary: finally starting to feel established in Montréal!
