SO it's been like 5 months since I last posted...
Lots has happened... but I'll only update on a few things...
I'm still here in Ottawa, just starting my second year on my Master's, research is going well but now I have to take some classes so it gets in the way of research.
The summer was great, lots of great bands, Sloan, Trews, Signal Hill, Great Big Sea, Live, Nelly Furtado, Jimmy Swift Band, and a bunch more that I can't remember right now.
I volunteered at the HOPE volleyball tounry (because The Trews and Sloan were playing so I saw them for free), but I met a cool girl, it's sort of funny, we didn't really talk at the event but after we hung out at the volunteer party and she came with me to see some jazz with friends (from work) in Hull.
Took a weekend trip to MTL, it was fun. Helped a friend move but stayed the night and meet up with some friends (some Brits). I'm on this site, couchsurfing.com and Globalfreeloaders.com and got a message asking if (two days from then) 5 Brits could stay at my house... I thought about it... and I was like hell yeah!! so they crashed on the floor of my apt for 2 nights I hope that they had a great time... and then that weekend I saw three of them in MTL... really nice to see them again... and one went on to Halifax and had a day visiting with my folks... went to Peggy's Cove and the like.. this assures me a few places to craash when I'm in the U.K. next!! (for the first time)
well thats enough posting right now... I'll check back in another 5 months....
