Well... it's been a while hasn't it?!
I apologize to you for not posting anything for a long time. The moment I arrived in Toronto, I was extremely busy catching up with old friends and helping the people I'm staying with fix up their new place. I barely had time to check email! But these next few days before I return to Vancouver my friends are all back to work so I have time to sit, relax and, well, BLOG!
First off... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I hope everyone had a fantastic New Year's Eve!!! We definitely had a good one in the city. I have not laughed so much in a long time I must say. We had a house party and a bunch of old friends showed up! We laughed at old stories, told new ones... created more at the party! Good times, good times!!
Toronto is such a big city, I have been contemplating moving out here to pursue sound production for television, I just have to get over the whole intimidating factor of the city! In Vancouver, you can pretty much recite the different neighbourhoods by memory, in Toronto... you have neighbourhoods within neighbourhoods! With sub-cities, sub-divisions, subways... AH! You have downtowns in different parts of the West End and the East End! And there are no mountains, the concrete jungle honestly just keeps going! People travel out to Scarborough (my friends call it Scarberia!) to work, the travel time between Toronto and Scarborough on the subway (a common commute) takes about the same amount of time it would for me to get to Victoria from Vancouver. Or from Victoria to Nanaimo! And people do this everyday to work. WTF MATE?!?!?! And the beach that my friend Evan took me to is nothing compared to Wreck!! (naked people aside). I mean you at least have a secluded beach surrounded by mountains and trees at Wreck. The beach that I saw here had traffic lights and cars RIGHT next to it. ABUH?!
I dunno, if I do end up moving here, I might get used to it. But I like the fact that when I wake up in the mornings in Vancouver, I can see mountains. Now I know how you felt when you were at Mount Allison, Tang. I completely understand!
Well, I am returning to Vancouver on Friday. I think I'm ready to come back too. The time spent away was definitely worth it! However I'm ready to end this trip. It has been a great break that's for sure.
More to come...
