Oh Canada…

fmylife:

Today, my country thought it was a good idea to represent itself with Avril Lavigne, Hedley, and Nickelback. FML

You’re such jokes.  Don’t get me wrong, I love Toronto and can’t wait to visit Vancouver, but it’ll be nice to be able to make fun of you again once we part ways.

So looking at all the pictures I’ve posted I’ve come to one conclusion:

victoriajean:

In order to be a great Canadian musician you MUST be able to grow a full on beard. The only exception is Owen Pallett.

K’Naan?  I mean, I’m sure he could if he wanted to but he usually only has the little chin-beard rather than a full goatee.

Meh, he’s Somalian.  Exception granted.  Carry on :)

Page 84 from the first Scott Pilgrim I believe aka Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Life. Anyways just an awesome page from the comic, also I forgot to say the comic takes place in Toronto, Canada so that makes it even more awesome if you do not agree you suck.

Love me some Pilgrim.  Can’t wait for book 6 and the movie this year!

Procrastinators Unite… Tomorrow

victoriajean:

Me (9:30AM): Hmm… I should clean my room today and maybe do a couple loads of laundry.

Me (8:00PM after playing Super Mario and watching movies all day): I guess it’ll have to wait till when I’m off work again in 4 days.

I swear even though I was a huge procrastinator during school I was still slightly more productive than I am right now. I’ll just blame the weather for making me want to curl up a blanket all day.

I’m the same way.  I’ve been back in Toronto for about 3 weeks now and I still have yet to fully unpack my suitcase (and the two loads of laundry I’ve done since my return are still on my bed).  I also have barely cleaned up and the mess gets worse and worse as I get more and more assignments!  I swear, these days, I only live to work; whether it be on schoolwork, freelance jobs or music.

It took me forever to get around to grocery shopping so I could take another week to get around to cooking the good.

dealbreaker:

GUESTBREAKER: You Want Me to Take You Seriously After Starring on Degrassi
Every child star has a bit of a realization that they don’t want to be typecast. They want to dirty up their image and become more accessible to the rest of the world. But not every child star is a black actor named Aubrey Graham who just happened to play a wheelchair-bound basketball player on Canada’s most laughable drama.
You love rap. We get it. But your name is Aubrey. YOUR NAME IS AUBREY. You cannot change your name to Drake and expect me to take you seriously. You cannot talk about sex without taking me back to the time you and Ashley were trying to have sex and ended up not being ready, so you made condom balloon animals instead. CONDOM BALLOON ANIMALS. There is almost nothing less street than that.
So the next time you want to really intimidate us, maybe by guesting on a Kanye West or Kid Cudi song telling us how much “swagger” you have, please remember this: your name is Aubrey. Your name is not Drake. And nothing you do, no amount of women you make say “oh oh oh” when you “poke her face” (which NEVER fucking happens, by the way) will ever make us forget where you came from. And you came from the basketball courts of Degrassi Junior High. Which is pretty much the basketball court of Hang Time.
A Guest Dealbreaker written by Alice.

Alice gets where I’m coming from.  AUBREY has potential but is HIGHLY overrated (past the point of no return, in my opinion).  Plus, when I met him at a Wale show, he was the most awkward person I’ve ever shaken hands with.

2 degrees celcius?

victoriajean:

What? Isn’t it supposed to be -30 in January? On the one hand, yay warm weather! But boo global warming…

How the heck did you get so lucky?  While the entire rest of the world is in a planetary state of cold front, you get (relatively) enviable weather??

*Sighs*

Are You Ready?

Because I’m not.  It’s -6ºC (21ºF) outside AND snowing.  I’ve been at home in warm weather for the last month and then suddenly I’m thrown into this, with no preparation.  On the bright side, I’ve isolated the perfect formula for a warm upper body (neck upwards notwithstanding) so that’s pretty good (t-shirt, two American Apparel hoodies, overcoat of your choice).

Still, Winter, I hate you and loathe your entire existence.  In case you’d forgotten.

The one nice thing about being back in Toronto is the technological advantage.  I’m back to using my iPhone with perfect 3G+ coverage, my 27” HD monitor and I now have my 1.5TB external hard drive.  I love Cayman like cooked food but we, as a nation, need to get it together on the technological front.  That and I need to bring all my stuff back.  Trying to transport all this stuff back to Cayman (along with my 88 key M-Audio ProKeys Sono 88 keyboard and multiple other facets of my setup) when I graduate in 2012 is going to be quite an interesting ordeal to say the least.  A part of me thinks I should be putting some cash away, gradually, to pay for a shipping container or something.
