Day in the life

As I ate my college lunch and pondered life, I thought about how lazy I've been with updating my blog. And then I opened my fortune cookie, which are available to us every day at meals.

It is better to get something done late than never.

Pretty sure it was a sign from a higher being.

We get a pretty sweet deal with the meal plan here. You walk into this area, and you can choose which bay you'd like to go to. There's the Burger/GrilledCheese/Poutine area, the grilled wrap/sandwich/roll/panini/bagel place, the noodle/stirfry/rice place, the place that changes it's hot food daily (different pastas, hot meats, baked/mash potato, roast), the salad area which changes daily, then two different soups every day which are always amazing. It's all you can eat so you literally can get one of everything.
I just wanted to rub it in for the New college kids :P Today's lunch -

This is Poutine - a Canadian creation and staple food. They're very proud of it. I tried to find a pretty picture of it online, but turns out even the experts can't make this food look classy. It's literally chips, chunks of cheese, and gravy.

While we're showing pics of food, baskin robbins is amaymay!

Last week the international kids of Concordia hosted a party at probably the most amazing club in Montreal. It's called club 737, and is on the very top penthouse floor of the highest building in Montreal.
As Lilly and I arrived the the club, we walked past a line of no kidding probably 200 people. We walked straight past, right to the front of this monstrous queue, flashed our vip tickets and were escorted immediately to the lift and to the top.

As we walked in, the light stench of vomit assaulted our senses, along with pounding music very dark lit room and a packed dance floor equipped with poles and stages everywhere for people to make use of. (Lisa and I may have made use of the poles later. May.)

LUCKILY this pro club also has a ridiculously over-sized terrace, where we quickly moved to after acquiring our $2 double shot drinks in our classy red cups.

Check the amazing view. Then imagine looking down while being off your tits. That's how crazy it was :)

As it was a gross rainy day the other day, I was reluctant to go to class. But then I remembered that this AWESOME university connects ALL of it's buildings together by underground tunnels!

So I can spend a day at Uni, going from class to class, building to building, without EVER taking a foot outside.

This is primarily for use when the whole place is drowning in snow, but still is amazing and convenient and I feel a little like a hermit. The novelty has yet to wear off and I don't think it will anytime soon. UNDERGROUND TUNNELS GUYS.

Montreal is actually known for having the largest underground city around. As an example, today I went shopping at the Eaton centre. Then I went shopping at Complexe Les Ailes. Then I moved to Place Versailles. Coincidentally I also spent about $200, but that's besides the point.

I went to these three different shopping centers without going outside. They are all connected underground. Pretty impressed, myself.

Double shot lime margarita, probably the best thing I've tasted ever.

NOTES

• Planning on a day-trip to Ottawa, should be cray. My Toronto weekend trip is also coming up, and there's a Boston trip planned on the horizon.

• For my first proper Thanksgiving, my friends and I (omg yes I do have them) are thinking of hiring a car and driving to Quebec city and spending the night wooo. Wish me luck with driving in these back to front cars.
• OMG they don't have chicken salt here. They think I'm crazy and gross when I mentioned it.
• I've been told Australians put 'fairy' in front of everything. Fairy floss (CottonCandy, they say), fairy lights (christmas lights), fairy bread ("what is that..?"). In my care package Trip/Cobalt, put in hundreds and thousands?! Apparently they've never experienced the glory of fairy bread.
