Montreal!!

It's about time I get around to posting about Montreal.. (soo lazy). It was definately better than I was expecting it to be, though indeed it's annoying to travel for 12 hours and not be in Montreal for much longer.

Since this is Blogger and not LJ I'm sad to say it will be the edited version.

When we arrived we went to see a concert at McGill.. it was.. I guess it was good for what it was.. but I didn't really like what it was. Contemporary music is not really my cup of tea. But MARIA CAME!!!! And hung out with us later, and Emily too!!! The rules were much more lax than they were on the NY trip.. apparently Beryl even bought people drinks? I wasn't there, I was with Jessica, Emily, Helen, Gideon, Maria, Jesse at a bar. We got back to the hostel past the time we were told to be back and no one cared and then partay in room 307! There were 14 people in my room at one point (my roomies being Renee, Gita, Joanna, Helen) INCLUDING Colin (!) until late. It was awesome.

The next morning we went back to McGill and woodwinds and brass split up to have a boring pointless tour OR (for woodwinds) to have a really awesome workshop with Michael Dumouchel, one of the clarinet players from the ORCHESTRA SYMPHONIQUE DE MONTREAL!!! Really cool and got the section pulled together.

After this we had a couple hours before leaving so we went to eat.. we took the Metro cuz it was FREE ALL DAY! How cool is that? I wish TTC would have a free day! We were kind of late getting back.. again.. but we were WITH Colin and Beryl (awesome lol). Joanna and I have decided that we are going to have a kid together. I know Jesse was dying to use his French but he DID get to use his Spanish with some tourists who asked us a question! And to the surprise of us all RENEE whipped out the French when some guy asked us about the Metro! Go Renee! The ride back seemed like a loongg time but the last couple of hours Jessica, Jesse and I amused ourselves with interesting games of "fuck, chuck, or marry" and "would you rather?"

It was a short, slightly drama-ridden but very fun trip. It was nice to get to know better, or at least get to the know the names of people I wasn't already well-acquainted with. I'm sure there are plenty of funny, inside joke sort of things to be said but I can't seem to remember any at the moment.

I'm really too lazy to post all of the pictures.. I'll post some but you'll have to go to Facebook to see the rest.

Oh, yeah, my hair changed colour again, if you hadn't noticed :) (Thanks to Carolyn <3 )
