one thing that i have had to get used to here is the Atlantic time zone. that and the cold weather. it's -5°F here.
i want to go home already. there's not much to do here in the winter. the town shuts down on Sundays and people pop their collars here.
i don't have a car here. the one thing i can look forward to is going to Toronto next month.
i'm here until April. i'm going to try to make the most of it.
until then listen to Ain't No Reason by Brett Dennen while viewing this.
I left Texas last week, on Tuesday. When I arrived it was very cold. Go figure. After being here a couple of days I realized that I would not have a vehicle. It is kind of odd having to rely on a trolley for transportation.
If you would like to see where I am you can click here. Pretty far, eh?
As you can see, if you clicked on the link. We are surrounded by water. However, as said in JAWS, "It's only an island if you look at it from the water." But seriously, it's mostly just a small town.
I have met some locals here. They seem nice. There's a bar on campus! Sodas come in glass bottles. They use the metric system here. KFC does NOT serve biscuits. There are no dollar menus at Burger King or McDonald's. The Domino's Pizza here has no crushed pepper. I have yet to see a Taco Bell. French fries with gravy is eaten here, known as poutine.
Although I am not a big fast food guy I thought I'd note the differences.
To be continued...
P.S. Some people "pop" their collars here. Ha.
