Canada

This blog is about my trip to Canada from February till the end of July. The reason I have this blog is that my family/ friends and teachers can read what I have been up to.
I'll write about my preperations, flight, what I have learned at the internship company as well as any side trips.

Week 1: Saturday - room viewing

Didn't have much planned for this day other than visiting possible roommates, but Erica wanted to come and plans started changing. We decided on going to the movies right after!
At 5 we left and I drove to Lethbridge... through snow. Man, getting tired of this weather. I want to see the sun! Well okay the snow is temporarily; in a few days it should be sunny.
Anyways we arrived a bit early so I quickly made a turn through the neigbourhood and then I parked on their driveway. I got a bit nervous when ringing the doorbell, but a friendly looking girl opened the door and all nerves disappeared. Still you don't know what to say at that point xD

She showed me around and also her brother came up to take a look. I saw my bedroom and it's big with an ensuite! I could choose that room or another smaller one, but as it was the same price I of course got the bigger one. She mentioned a housekeeper dropped by so I only really had to clean after myself. I also got to cook for myself as she and her brother have different schedules. I can drive with them to the supermarket
No problem, I can make it work. =P

We went to the basement and I spotted a huge tv and game controllers. I couldn't help but smile when I noticed the guy was a gamer and she was a little too! They have a ps3, xbox, gamecube and I believe a nintendo. I will for sure join into a gaming session one day.

The girl showed me the washing area and later showed me how everything worked because things work there differently than at home. I said I was interested in the room and the ywere also happy they found one. I signed some forms just to seal the deal and received the house key and a room key! The earliest I could move in was next week friday, but as they are out of town and I will be alone for the weekend I decided to move in on monday as I can still ask some questions then and get groceries. Monday is still earlier than I expected as I thought I could move in on May 1st.

Aaah so happy I got a room! The two siblings look very nice and easy to get along with.

We said goodbye after 30 minutes or so and left to the mall, but because the food courts were closed Erica drove us to the A&W. Hmmmm... those teenburgers are so good (only hard to eat)

At 19:30 we were back in the mall and got our tickets and pop. I also bought a frozen yoghurt with strawberry and banana. We  went to watch scary movie 5. It was a strange movie, but had its funny moments. I drove back home and we were home at 10.
I stayed up till 1 as Michael and I were having a conversation and then headed to bed.
