Yukon Ho!

I never put up a post announcing that school's over, despite its having been over for nearly a week now. I suppose I'm happy enough to just know that it's over. Also, my grades this semester suck.

I am going to Canada for a few days this weekend. I am very excited. Before I leave for abroad, I always imagine that I am going to have a whirlwind romance with an exotic beauty. It never happens, and I doubt this trip will be any different.

I am going to Montreal, which will be the most European city I've ever been to. It's in Quebec, so they speak French over there. Oh shit, I just remembered I still don't have a French dictionary.

I bought a travel guide for Montreal. I've always found people who buy travel books silly, but now that I think about it, this is the first place I will be going to where I wouldn't know anyone who could show me around.

I'm mainly excited about the shopping to be done. I have a record store written down, and I believe they have street markets like one always sees in the teevee that seem so glamorous. I will really feel like I'm in Paris or something. It sure would be nice if the whirlwind romance does happen. We will exchange letters when I leave and we will remain faithful to one another. And then we will marry, even though her father disapproves.
