What a weekend! Thursday night I went to the impromptu protest at Canada Place. Not many people, but plenty of horns honking on the way by. On Friday I hooked up for coffee with a new friend from school, and we decided to meet up at the Weaker Thans show at Grant Mac that night. Totally a blast. The opening band, Mico from Calgary, are definitely ones to watch. On Saturday I went to the Peace March. Ran in to an old friend from waaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day. I'm talking high school, summer o' '95 type back in the day. That was a trip. So, I might hook up with him for coffee one of these days. Good to hear he's doing well. The marching crowd was bigger than the one in February. The scene in front of the Legislature building was insane. I took more pictures. Then, my old nursing friend called, which blew me away because she seemed to have dropped off the face of the planet for a few weeks there. So we had some drinks and caught up. Then for the evening, I hooked up with one of my old V. House buddies and her boyfriend, as well as another couple I know from way back in Lloyd. I finally got to check out the new Likwid Lounge. Not bad. I think I was expecting more though, what with all the build-up it's had over the last month or so. I can see what a great venue it'll be for live shows. I've got so much catching up to do for school now it's not even funny!! Gotta get serious about my guitar again too. Oh ya, have I mentioned? I've finally picked up a guitar and I'm not gonna put it down until I can play it. So I've got my emergency computer up and running, but the sound doesn't work, so I'll have to hold off on that for a while. Always something with these damn machines!! Also, I started tutoring this week. So far I think I've been pretty useless as I have no idea what I'm doing yet, but I'm getting there. I ordered some how-to books from the library that should help. We'll see. Anyhoo, must go and get something done now. Must.
