<-- my life, by webgoddesscathy --> :: Friday, July 04, 2003 :: Theresa has a new house at Yonge and Eg! Very excited for her! :: Cathy 12:52 AM [+] :: 0 comments Well, it's good to know that I have so many people to let me know when my site screws up. Thanks, guys! There was a problem with my blog. Either Blogger screwed up or I was hacked. Probably the former. Anyway, it's fixed now. Phew! :: Cathy 12:13 AM [+] :: 0 comments :: Thursday, July 03, 2003 :: Have discovered new winter warm up bedtime taste sensation: chai tea and butterscotch schnapps. :: Cathy 5:30 AM [+] :: 0 comments :: Wednesday, July 02, 2003 :: They have finally trained me how to make coffee! I suck at frothing milk, but I'm learning. You name it, I can make it: cappucino, latte, flat white, long black, short black (espresso), macchiato, black/white vienna, hot chocolate, iced coffee, mochas... I feel so cool! Even more exciting, I talked to my mom last night and had a really fantastic talk with Raye today after work. She always makes me feel better. I needed perking up today because it's cold and rainy and I'm exhausted from waking up every day at 5:30am and going to work. I'm not a morning person. Plus, I came home to a super messy kitchen, I'm a little worried about how my income vs. expenses ratio here in Sydney (the most expensive city in Australia), and I'm a little bored. However, I'm sure things will be better tomorrow. :: Cathy 11:02 PM [+] :: 0 comments Well Canada Day was a BLAST! Went with my friend Kat (former Rye student who lives in Sydney now) to the Victoria Cross Bar. It's the official Canadian bar in Sydney. It was so dedicated by some important dignitary and they even have a plaque on the wall commemorating this fact. They served Labbatt's Blue and Canadian Club sponsored the event, so I drank CC Club all night. They played Canadian music. Lots of Tragically Hip, Kim Mitchell, Colin James, Bryan Adams, Tom Cochrane, The Guess Who and even a Bran Van 2000 song - but no Our Lady Peace! Even so, it was so fantastic to hear so many of my favourite songs/bands. There was Canadian Trivia (ie: who was the second PM?) and Molson Canadian commercials and then the main event: "THE FULL MOUNTIE" (pics to come in the travel section soon) Met some new friends. Wore my best Canadian outfit: My new "I Love Toronto" t-shirt, courtesy of the amazing Sarah and my Leafs jersey, courtesy of Matt. Also wore my "I love Toronto" tshirt to work today and showed it off to all my favourite customers. One guy said "Nice shirt. I didn't really read it, though." Smirk. :: Cathy 3:33 AM [+] :: 0 comments :: Monday, June 30, 2003 :: Sarah is the greatest. She sent me a Canada Day care package with an "I love Toronto" tshirt. I'm wearing it tonight to the Canada Day celebrations, along with my Leafs Jersey!! Sarah ROCKS! :: Cathy 11:30 PM [+] :: 0 comments HAPPY CANADA DAY!! Sorry about the lack of updates. We had to turn off our Internet access for a couple of days as we'd reached our package's download limit. I know, I know, I should've gone to an Internet cafe. But I figured everyone could wait a couple of days until July 1st. Tonight I'm going out to North Sydney to celebrate Canada Day with other Sydneysider Canadians! Last night I saw Bowling for Columbine at Govinda's. It was outstanding. I've never been MORE proud to be Canadian. I found it funny that they interviewed people from Sarnia. My mom is from Sarnia. I hate to say it, but I DO lock my door. I went to Govinda's with Michelle (Vancouverite) and her roommates, who are all amazing people!! I found out that me and one of her roommates have birthdays this month around the same time, so we're going to plan a joint bday party! After the movie, we went to a pub out in King's Cross and got a teapot of some tropical shots. Very yum. Met a cabdriver who speaks 10 languages! Got home late and woke up early to work. Ugh. ------------- SATURDAY ------------- Went to Michelle's apt for dinner. She made the most amazing salmon dinner!! She's a fantastic cook! She also has fantastic roommates. WE all went out to the The Orient pub in The Rocks. I didn't know about it's reputation before I went. It was a total meat market. Some guy asked me to dance then dragged me around the pub a couple of times, then talked incoherently, then asked me if I wanted a drink and made me pay for it. Weird. Met Andreas and David there, who came with us when we left to go to Pontoon, in Darling Harbour. David had some hidden salsa talents, which he was happy to show off. I need to learn how to dance. It looks so cool and is so fun! Too bad I suck at it. :: Cathy 9:39 PM [+] :: 0 comments
