finance exam was 5-7, jacey and boyfriend, michael, picked me up at 7:45pm and we picked ira up in toronto - with traffic and stops, we arrived in Ottawa at around 2AM.

the car ride was fun! me and ira were singing RANDOM songs and we kept forgetting lyrics, so mike tried to drown us out with the radio. oh yeah, mike kept falling asleep and steering to the side!!! :O

we were supposed to stay at Travelodge where Hendry and Jane were staying, and got a room for 3 people (even though there was 4 of us). there was some discrepancy, and there was only ONE queen sized bed, and we had to HASSLE to get another bed. they ended up getting us a cot, but what the fuck! thereotically, how can "3" people sleep on one bed? and why do we have to HASSLE to get another bed? shitty service. and the hotel was sketch to the max - small ass room and everything was nasty. but it was amusing because i was teasing the couple the whole night.

we woke up around 9:30 and drove to denny's to have breakfast with jane and hendry. then we all drove to Confederation Park for Winterlude! we "walked" on the Rideau Canal (no one wanted to go skating), and we checked out winterlude. we ate taffy on a stick.. basically they put taffy on snow and rolled it around and we paid 2 bucks for it. oh yeah, there was beaver tails but we didn't even get any (we were all too full from breakfast). there was an ice sculpture competition which was cool, and then we went to Rideau Shopping centre and walked around.

hendry and jane stayed in ottawa, then the four of us drove to Montreal at 4pm. we got to Candlewood hotel and took forever trying to find parking... and the GPS was getting super annoying at that point. but when we got inside, we were ASTONISHED!

1) the place is HUGE
2) there's a KITCHEN. with a fridge, stove and sink and it's beautiful!!! there's a dishwasher, coffee pot, microwave... it's so beautiful (tear)
3) there's TWO HUMONGOUS beds!!!
4) LARGE COUCH BIG TV
5) SPACIOUS!!!
6) clean, luxurious... BEAUTIFUL!!!
7) washroom is spacious and clean!!

anyway, i don't know about PLANS tonight. blog tomorrow! pictures later.

Some Quotes

"MONTREAL!!!" - me, on our way to ottawa

"i'm gonna slap you in your face til you die" - ira

oh yeah, mike does this thing where if he says something and u say, "what?" he always says, "what?" back, impulsively. so me and ira made up a song to sing everytime he does that:

Oops! He did it again. He said "what" again. Got lost in the brain... oh Mikey Mikey
(i don't think he likes us very much.)
