I have arrived. I have finally been able to just kick up my feet and say "I'm not going to be packing for the next little while". Perfect.
The day started off a bit rainy in Cambridge, but by the time we arrived in the T.Dot all was swell. The clouds ran away and the sun was here to stay. Since my roommates were away as I was moving in, I was left various blue post-its throughout the house explaining what was what, and where everything was etc. Pretty helpful! There was even a post-it on my bed with a CD attached to it!
How very sweet of her :)
So I proceeded to put everything in order and went out with my parents to do a little shopping. Nothing to major, just wandered around Holy Renfrew pretending that the clothes and accessories were actually affordable. Each time I go in there I'm shocked by the prices. $700 for a shirt? Maybe one day... but for now I'll stick to my VV Boutique bargins.
When I came back, I started to really unpack and listened to some Ms. Smith. Perfect unpacking music. I have to admit, I never actually listened to Meaghan before, and now I have. I think this is a sign in terms of what will be happening as I discover Toronto. I am going to do things I have never done before. I'm quite excited about this wonderful plan.
Now I sit here quietly using a free internet connection because my mac (Sammy) has decided it doesn't want to connect to the house connection. I'm a wee bit tired and I have a big day ahead of me tomorrow! I'm going to the CBC to see 2 tapings of The Hour. I'm thoroughly excited. Also, I'm planning on not taking transit, which means an hour walk each way. I can't wait to get some good ol' Toronto exercise! How long do you think I can last without buying a transit pass?
Now, I'm curious. Do you have any places in the T.Dot you'd like me to visit and discover? Preferably free places. Perhaps you know of a cafe or a bakery I should stop into.
I'm so excited to be here and I can't wait to take you along with me on this ride through Toronto.
Should be fun and interesting!
Monica
