Fökai 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2004 Might as well start this up, since I'm already having an interesting Spring Break so far. I entered Vancouver early Tuesday morning, treading out of the country for the first time in my life. I have to say that, so far, this is one of the best cities in the world (from the ones I've seen, naturally). The air is clean, the people are definitely good-spirited, and the age limit on alcohol consumption is to my liking. One of the cool experiences I've had up here since my arrival, would that I was part of an MTV Select taping for MTV Canada. I assume it will be brodcasted on MUCH, with a concrete date of this coming Monday (the 29th). I'm pretty sure that I will not be on camera. The explanation is that I was one of 40 in the studio, along with my college buddy, with some of us sitting on the bleachers to add in applause and such. Look for a guy in a dark blue shirt, VASTLY different from everyone else. On another side note, I missed RAW on Monday, so it was AWESOME to stumble upon a replay of the show on TSN last night (which is a cool treat for Canadians weekly) - for that, TSN will always have a place in my heart. Anyone here from Vancouver or somewhere remotely close in British Columbia, sans SK? I'm staying at the Listel on Robson Street, in case anyone wants to harrass me at the bar or anything. Everyone else, share your stories as your break continues (or unless it was last week, talk about that). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
treble 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2004 Vancouver's a nice place, even though I didn't see a whole lot of it when I was out there last spring. What I saw was nice, though. My 'spring' break was over a month ago and I spent most of it at home watching TV. I think you're having a better time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2004 Vancouver is just like Washington state. Except not American... so that makes it suck quite a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
