1. I saw 5 rainbow flags on the way to where I babysit, and 0 Canadian flags. Puttin' the gay into Gayberg~
2. Two zombies got on my streetcar.
3. My friend Karly saw a Jesus zombie and a Dog the Bounty Hunter zombie yesterday at the Zombie Walk.
4. We have Nuit Blanche, which kind of sucks half the time but it's also fun to leave your house to meet friends at 2am.
5. We have Degrassi Street!!! (lol)
6. A guy on my streetcar started talking about the Barack Obama cabbage patch doll he will be submitting to the International Cabbage Patch Convention. He also mentioned his plans to make Michelle, Sasha, and Malia, as well as his Ryan Seacrest cabbage patch doll.
7. Stephen Harper does not live here.
8. We have a good university. (I think it's #20 in North America? I DON'T KNOW, my dad told me the other day, but as usual I was not really listening since he has a tendency to pause for 10 seconds between every other word.)
9. We have decent public transit, even though I complain about it a lot. It is better than Ottawa's. Plus, Ottawa has Stephen Harper. Therefore, you should not move to Ottawa, although they have delicious food at Byward Market.
10. However, we have Kensington Market, which, if you ignore the various crackheads living in bank machines, is an interesting place.
11. We are hosting World Pride in 2014, which you obviously know already.
12. There are lots of good shopping districts.
13. We have the longest street in the world.
14. We have the CN Tower, although it is no longer the tallest freestanding structure in the world; curse you, Dubai.
15. You can get married here!! :D :D (Or anywhere in Canada, but obviously Toronto is better.)
16. Tis just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Niagara falls, which is coincidentally where Jim and Pam got married.
17. We are very multicultural. I just felt I should add that because everyone does. Also, it means lots of awesome food.
18. We have some pretty awesome museums, like such as (I DID THAT ON PURPOSE~) the ROM.
19. The ROM has a bat cave. I felt that this fact is important enough to give its own point, as I used to go through it 3-5 times every time I visited. I have grown up enough to restrain myself, but the urge is still there.
20. I live here.

I could add more, but 20 is a nice, even number.

*spams*

I am amused by the Facebook group "You know you're from Toronto when..." Some of them are SO true!

super long )

I made a community ([community profile] june19). It's basically just a diary. Like, a really detailed account of my day. I'm still going to be posting here, but I will make more detailed posts over there. Anyway, you are welcome to join to read members-only posts. It's not terribly exciting, but... whatever. I'm mostly doing it for me, but if somebody else wants to read it too, cool! :D

Originally it was a separate account, but I'm too lazy to log in and out. XD Plus, I like all my posts to be under one account. I'm just like that.

I'm kind of mad that I wasted the invite code on the journal when I could have just made the community for nothing, though. :P

Here's what happened:

Jet fell down an entire storey.
We bought a leash and harness at Walmart and took the kitties for a walk.
Bighead and I decided to be Calvin and Hobbes for Halloween.
I got "swine flu".


 

it's kind of long and involved so here's a cut for you )

WHO DID THIS?



Whoever you are, I love you and you should probably identify yourself so I can love you even more.

:(

Why are both LJ and Twitter down? Hello? How else am I supposed to occupy my time? *annoys cat by trying to play with him*

Your career profile shows you are an Inventor.
As an Inventor, you love thinking about concepts and theories, and value knowledge and competence above all else. You apply very high standards to all that you do, and you best understand things by analyzing underlying principles and structures. You enjoy working independently. Most of the time you are caught up in your deep thought life, and as a result, others may perceive you as disconnected. You are a well spring of creative ideas, and you are probably most energized when you are acquiring knowledge and learning to master new skills. You have an extremely high level of concentration, and are good at using your future oriented thinking to see the implications and benefits of implementing your ideas.


I agree with this one to some degree, but I feel like the title of "Inventor" doesn't quite fit. I don't value knowledge above everything, though.


People Person :

You are very gifted at dealing with other people. Your compassion and empathy make you a natural for any careers that require nurturing and encouraging people on a daily basis.



Strongly disagree! I am socially awkward and I dislike a lot of the people I come in contact with.

None of these tests told me what career I'm best suited for though. :( I'm interested in journalism right now, but I would probably suck at it because of, you know, my lack of people skills. DAMMIT! Time for Plan B. :P
