mcgill uni!

I stepped foot into mcgill uni for the first time today... it looks great! with big victorian style buildings and BIG green fields. Best of all... free grilled food. HAha.. well, it's orientation week, so they kinda provided a buffet of food for the people.... how nice... we grabbed some food and went to the field to eat... reminds me of bondi beach (sydney) minus the beach...

it was really a day for errands.. visited the bank, applied our prepaid cards (cell phone isage is REALLY expensive...: 20cents per outgoing/incoming minute. how nice...), attended the exchange students info session which was kinda crappy and useless. so yeah.. i was suffering from jet lag. The fact that we kinda lost our way (yes audrey, i admit i'm bad at directions) added to my headache... we found our way back at the end of the day, after walking for like half an hour... great way to lose some weight!

then we had POUTINE for dinner... thats pronounced as PU-TINE. Its basically french fries with melted cheese and gravy.. totally sinful... hahaa.. it was all right for me. apparently, its supposed to be one of MTL's good food... hehe. walked to the international film festival.. again... to check out french films with no subtitles today. So i totally couldn make out what it was about, except for a couple of words here and there like 'parfait', 'magnifique', 'si' etc... too stressful for my brain... Anyway, sorry no pics. I'm too lazy to upload... hehe.. i'll TRY to upload the next time:D
