Check...1...2...3

So today was sooo hot outside, 28!!! And tomorrow... 28 AGAIN! Yep. So Monday Mike and Moe came over, checked out my pad then we headed downtown. Surprisingly I was able to give them directions, I realized I know how to get around Toronto better than I thought. So after driving around and stuff we went, were else? MANDARIN!!!!! I think they enjoyed it just as much as I did. There's nothing better than a Chinese buffet that also serves Italian, and I forgot to mention all the ice cream you can eat. Anyway, so after that we went to the Bay (the department store), this Bay has to be the biggest Bay in the world. It had 9 floors!!!!!!! We spent much of our day there and then they drove me home. Mike fixed my computer mouse, apparently there was a build up of hair inside. Ewww, I know. I didn't take any pictures because my camera called it quits :( I swear I'm not lying just to get out of the uniform picture promise. Ask Kevin! I'll have to video tape me in my work uniform, even worse. Can you tell my style of writing is a little different this post, it feels different to me??? I think it's because I just got back from a comedy club and I'm in that one liner kind of mode. I'll try and stop now. So today after working all day I went to this guy's sound studio and he taught us a bit about sound editing and mixing and we get to go back and mess around with his recording equipment. I'm going to go in with Andrew next week and he's going to record some of his guitar playing accompanied by a drumming track by one of his friends from Newfoundland. The sound studio is so cool, he has a Foley studio too! A Foley artist is my dream job in the film industry but one of the hardest to get into. For those of you who don't know what a Foley artist is, they are the people who recreate the sounds, like the foot steps and the door slams. So yeah, after the sound studio stuff Andrew and I went to this comedy club we've never been to and it's way better than Yuk Yuks. It's better because it's free, and the people are more laid back and just a better atmosphere I guess. The place is called Spirits. I guess I'll be going there every Wednesday now. Man, I have a lot to say right now, lol. The other day I went to High Park for the first time. It was paradise!!!!! It's this great place with hundreds of trails, up hill, downhill, pavement paths, dirt paths, brick paths, whatever you prefer. This park is so huge, I hiked for two hours and couldn't even cover the whole place. There's this huge lake, and this giant castle play ground. There's even a zoo in the middle of the park. It was the weirdest thing, there was not a single soul at the zoo when I was walking through it. Even in the trails, hardly anyone was there. I can't understand why, I totally forgot I was still in the city. And the best part is that it's only a 20 minute walk from my house! It's a little piece of BC for me to enjoy and oddly it kind of reminds me of Saskatchewan too, don't ask why. I brought my video camera with me and put together a little video but it's not quite done, I'll post it soon. What else did I have to write about? Ummm, on Saturday I'm going to Much Music with Andrew to give him moral support because he's auditioning to become a VJ. The guy's crazy, he wants to be a professional comedian, musician, actor, TV writer and now a TV host, what next? So yah, watch for that High Park vid I put together, it's coming soon.

Out of everything you wrote, all I can think about is the hair build-up in your mouse. I'm pretty sure my dreams will be filled with mice clogged with hair.

Anyways you need to add that park on your list of things to do with Tamara when I come to visit. Halla!
