Me and my Sibs, just chillin'




So… so so so…. Things here are going great! I don’t feel much like a tourist anymore. I find that I am learning my way around the city very well! Vonster Monster (my little bro) got here on Thursday night, so it is me and my sibs hanging in Montreal. Me and the bros… it’s a nice feeling to be hanging with both of them again. It’ll be a time to remember.

I am almost done my TESL course! That means by tomorrow I will be certified to teach English as a second language overseas! My final presentation was today. I did good in spite of my red rashy neck. I get red… real red when I stand up in front of the class and have to teach anything that lasts longer than about 3 minutes… I hate it. In any case, I got through the 20 minute lesson and managed to have some fun while I was at it. YAY!

I have been out and about a lot since I have written last. I have been to a few house parties (one last weekend for St. Pattie’s day) and last night (just for fun). Both parties were large in number and cool in setting. Both in shared apartments (many room mates comfortably sharing one large apartment), hosted at different places by different hosts. Hardwood floors, high ceilings, old and beautiful light fixtures and door frames… everything here is old. Ambient lighting and good indie music. Smart and fun people… all around a great time was had, for many reasons.

I also went to the St Patrick’s day parade with Jay and his people. It was a party in the streets. I met them outside my school on my lunch break, caught the parade, had a few beer and went back to school. After school I met up with them all at a pub (which is where the pics are from). I met some Swiss guys, whose pictures these are, and I drank beer and danced all night. Casey (the curly haired, thoughtful looking one in the pic with 3 people) and I danced into the night… everyone else left, but she and I partied on! It was so much fun. I will write more soon, but for now I must go! Cheers! I hope this finds you readers well.

the pic of "you and the sibs" is so cute (especially Vonn, who looks much younger in that "I can't wait to be an adult, as illustraed by my beer shirt" kind of way).

I love your family. I think you should adopt me.

PS Hey. So, uhhh. I haven't seen my name mentioned since, well, March 9th to be exact. So, uhhhh...I may not be able to stop by Hammy's Corner anymore, if you catch my drift?
