Time goes by quickly, one week you're saying goodbye to everyone, next week you're the proud owner of a shiny new koe - mok... oh yeah and one year older.
cheers V&V !
This week was one of new experiences, introductions, challenges, wonders, highs and a few lows. Each of these resulted in new insights lessons and raving results. Overall Vancouver proves to be a great town... As for the infiltration mission, I'd like to report the following:
- Vancouver is a city of food. There's plenty of it. However, due to the variety of ethnic origins, it's sometime hard to judge whether something is a tasty experience or should be sent to the garbage bin without further delay.
Luckily the Canadians are a friendly bunch, so they colourcode their food. Thus far, I managed to decipher one colour: brown. Brown implies shite in terms of looks, smell, taste, texture and the almost immediate result after being stupid enough to eat it anyway. Avoid brown food at all cost.
yuck and yuck - Canadian is an interesting little language. Their written expressions hang on to their British heritage (behaviour, harbour, colour) while at the same time they flirt with the cooler southern neighbours (initialize, verbalize, mooseize). To make sure everybody knows what they're talking about, they subtitle their language in Frog.
Questions should always end in "eh ?".
- Everything and everybody is equal, in the end we all get wet by the same rain. This provides ample opportunity of all views, sides and kinds and results in a competitive yet friendly atmosphere. That no one, and I mean, no one is exempt from this philosophy is proven by finding this super being HQ (i.e. church) in the middle of the metropolis...
... right next to the HQ of an apparently somewhat more successful other super being
... and meanwhile the world wonders: 'teh 5uv0 pwnz', eh ?
