Aussie say what? FRIENDS THAT'S WHAT!

Well, picking up where I left off in my previous entry...Saturday. To begin to describe my incredible day that was Saturday I must first start by saying that I spent the entire day doing homework. The end.


Actually, no, it was not the end. I did, however, spend the day doing homework. Not a problem necesarily, as I did get a lot done that I no longer have to do (which is making this week easier). Saturday night was different story all together. Got all done up, as is custom, and went over to Sarah and Ashleigh's place (the Aussie girls). Sarah got ready while I watched a slightly odd, slightly graphic zombie movie, and then we headed out to the CLUB! It was defined as a "hors-village club gai", or a "gay club outside the village". It was a cross between a bar and a club, and it was a lot of fun. People were there to meet people and make new friends, and the free drinks before 11pm was a fantastic bonus!!! Anyway, Mec Plus Ultra (the name of the event) was a definate success. More dancing, and we made a few friends, although the outgoingness of Sarah was hard to match. Alcohol may or may not have played a part. Jury is still out. Anyway, due to the fact that it was 3am, the club had closed, and we weren't tired yet, I bet you cannot guess where we went?? POUTINE OF COURSE! Lovely stuff. So, poutine-filled, friends-made, and sore-feet having, we made our way home. Great night, or morning. Depends on your defintion of the time after midnight ;)

Sunday - more homework, but this time I went to a café with Leah over in Côte-des-Neiges and had a café-au-lait à la homework. Really great time, and I find her neigbourhood quite pleasant to be in. As we discussed, its in Montréal, but has the feel of being its own seperate town. Homework complete, I jumped on the métro and went over to Lauren's. We made some pesto pasta dinner avec une salade, and watched Mambo Italiano. It's a movie set in Montréal, about an Italian family, and their gay son. Its really, really, really funny, and is only slightly homosexual. The Italian jokes are far more frequent, and you spent the vast majority laughing your butt off. I recommend it!

Monday- Class on the UN in the morning (although, it was on the League of Nations today. Great professor, bad time....pre-noon). Afternoon- productivity and shopping with Sarah :) We went to H&M (two of them actually, like 5 blocks apart). Then La Baie (The Hudson Bay Company, your standard department store founded in the 1800's...along the lines of Macy*s). Then Centre Eaton. Not only did I find my winter coat for the coming snow for only $80 (in which I look slightly like KGB officer or something because I am so puffy.....photo included),



but I also got my hair cut! It needs not be said that Mum was happy. Its shorter on the sides, but long enough on the top that I can do something with it. 4 hours later, I get home. I havent left since. My feet still hurt a wee bit.
