Chick Flicking around Toronto!

August 19, 2006

Hehe thats a funny title
Yesterday was a blast! you wanna knwo why?
Well when do you get a chance to visit the Holiness and serenity of Tibet, the enjoyment of Chinese Culture, the taste of Korean Food, a walk around the busy streets of downtown Toronto in one day????!!!!! well I did Booo you all! hehe just kidding

Sophie just got back from her 3 month vacation in China so Andrew and Me just paid her a welcome back visit and had a small get together of our selves.

In the morning I just had crappy university stuff to finihs up then after that met Andrew at Pape station…after that we TTC ed to Sophies appartment…. Well speaking of appartments her one is on the 25th floor and the view oh man! Amazing… you can see the Don Valley Parkway and Downtown Toronto so clearly…and the breeze is always so cool! Loved it

After the enjoyment of the view and the house we had a chance to have our own traditional Chinese tea tasting thing. Sophie brought some kinda chienese tea called Ulong tea which took abot an hour to prepare. But above all the pots in whihc the tea was served was the thing that caught my amazement….it was quite espensive but it seems Chiense people take Tea parties so serisouly that theres so much tradition and art involved. Never knew that a tea pot would have so much varieties which are made out of a special expensive clay.

After that we started the journey to Tibet. Well not flying over there but Sophie brought hundreds and thousands of pictures and we got a chance to see just what was China was all about… It was indeed facinating.. I enjoyed it! I mean Tibet looks awesome with its serene life, envrionment and nature. While Beijing and Shanghai seem verymuch in touch with the western world wiht its rapid growth and industrialized environment. It made me realised what a boring city Toronto was. Seriously, theres nothign special about Toronto except the fatc that 150 cultures live toegther….thats it! that sucks! and what have u got to see? only the CN tower…boooo

After that Sophie got an amazing chick idea! lol She wanted to watch a chick flick with GUYS! holy cow…we were reluctant at first then wanted to actually try it and see.. well we chose the DEVIL WEARS PRADA! lol….before that we got to downtown ate some delicious Korean food! yum yum….Me want mroe rice cakes! mmmm
Then Sophie went chick shopping….lol which we guys were kidna embarassed to do.

Finally we watched the movie which wasnt that bad…the story was predictable btu worth the money! Anne Hathaway is not HOT!
anyways I had a blast….it was awesome…enjoyed everymoment of it…

I look forward to paddlign soon…until then bye!
