heard this one in class today:
11% of men and 3% of women* said that they would commit murder for $1 million if they knew that they would get away with the crime.
no-fucking-duh!
* not sure where these stats are from, wasn't listening.

Travel Perks #45
Little people Big world
"Hello, this is room 1507 and i was wondering if you knew that show about the dwarves? yes? ok, well what channel might that be on? mmmhmmm....and around what time will it be on in case i want to watch it?"
cool show about this family that we always manage to catch when we're in the hotels on friday and saturday nights.
LE MONTREAL SHERATON CENTRE
* Whilst waiting at the helpdesk we over hear that one of the ladies behind the desk has been asked out by a customer. Actually, no IS BEING asked out by a customer. She's all like to her colleague all behind the desk 'oh my goodness, he just asked me out. Should i go?'
a) He's standing right there
b) We're standing right there too. NOT five star service
* Because our luggage was lost we wanted to know what the plan of action would be if it did get delivered but after we had left the hotel.
The Bellman: uhhh...i don't know.
Us: Will it get sent back to the airport?
The Bellman: uh...maybe.
Princesses i know, but shit, ALL my Victoria's Secret stuff was in that bag

CANADA EH?
steaming the undies because they were new and cold.
married couple toothbrushes ("oh it's sunday, happy anniversary!")
at the hotel pool with our swimmers still in washington. what to do?
the coldest place on earth. Our European friends are laughing at the thought of two aussie girls in subzero temps.
In old town Montreal. Really cool place with coble stone streets, horse drawn carriages and those street lights...you know, the really cool old ones.
Don't know what we're posing in front of but momentarily forgotten that our bags are not with us.Remembered during dinner at the Chez Thai that our bags were not with us. Can't begin to explain the all consuming and overwhelming dread that we might have to deal with United Airlines.

Went to see a movie and bumped into the courier man delivering our bags. there was screaming, grabbing and tears.
standing next to a crazy highway and some building. the town hall i think.
all smiles in my attempt at an arty photo. Don't care that it's not that arty - i have my stuff
at the hotel pool with our swimmers also at the hotel pool. sauna and spa sooooooo good.
Hard Rock Cafe cemetary for Halloween
University of McGill truck. How cool is that?
on the way home we had the same air stewardess that we had on the way there.
"Didn't you girls go to canada?"
"yeah, been there, done that, bought the t-shirt."
"ok..."

BEER PONG...we have to play when i get back
ok, so i don't photograph well...
luci having a drink for the hell of it...NEEDED:
two teams (no names needed but 'double helpings' is always a good name)
14 plastic cups ( the red american ones that we always see in the movies)
a long surface (not the floor. maybe cabinets or a chest of draw)
3 ping pong balls (one for spare)
INSTRUCTIONS:
take 12 cups and set 6 on each on either side of the long surface.
make the cups into pyramids like bowling pins
fill each cup with alcohol - amount depends on how much you want to drink each time
fill the extra cups with water and place one with each team. this is to wash the ping pong balls.
Basically, you have to throw the ping pong balls into the cups. when you get a ball in the cup, the a person from the other team has to drink that cup. Yes, it sounds easy and that's what i thought until i realised that you got drunk while doing it.
you can catch the balls once they have hit a surface - but this means nothing so don't try.
In the circumstance that both teams only have one drink left, the losing team has to drink both drinks.
really really really really fun.
What's a frofessional?
Ms Ann: so do you girls think that you have the psychic energy?Paris: yeah, i do.
Nicole: me too.
Ms Ann: ok, thats good.
Nicole: my dogs do too.
Last night we were watching the Simple life (season 3 interns) when they do their psychic internship at a place called Ms Ann's. We realised that it was a place that we had been to in Georgetown Washington DC. Above is them sitting in the upstairs reading area and below are some pics we took of the place.
When i go back for thanksgiving I'm TOTALLY getting a reading. argghghghghgh!!!


Nicole: she says we're fired.
Paris: i know...I'm a psychic

"hey Anna, now that we're half way...everyday we spend here is a day closer to the end than the beginning!"
i was having my tuesday avo nap and through a dream, it dawned on me how much i actually loves it here. I dreamt that I was already back home and unpacking and i says to my mum "when do i go back to New Paltz?" and she says "you're not."I realise that I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to all the crazies i met along the way. Holocaust Boy and I never had the time to work out. I never got to have Thanksgiving or Halloween. Our international friends Zuzu and Bendy disappeared into fat air.
Plus, I won't get to do my own washing downstairs anymore. I won't have Socks and Sandles for General Psychology or Professor Bumbsters for Postwar America. I won't really need to wear gumboots anymore. I won't have the gym 3 minutes away from me. I'll go back to living at home. I won't have Victoria's Secrets, Abercrombie, Urban Outfitters or H&M.

Then i woke up and freaked out that luci wasn't there because I haven't slept without her for the last 8 weeks but then i realised that she's in her italian exam and has no time for my mind changing shinnanigans right now.
I don't want everyday to be closer to the end than the beginning. Even those damned mountains are looking better because of the fall.

double helpings
darv and carv
but i dont want to sleep but i can't keep my eyes open.
my clothes smell
i smell
i'm drinking lots of water so i just KNOW that i'm going to pee in the night. i dont like peeing in the night because our room isnt bright but the hallway is really light and so when you step outside it hits you really hard!
speaking of the hallway, it was raining the other day so i took my umbrella out and then when i came back i put the umbrella in the hallway and then this girl fell on it. FELL on it! i was like how the hell do you fall on an umbrella? how? and i saw it and it was like completely fucked up and all the metal bits were sticking out and inside out. the girl who tripped on it left me a note and said that she was going to buy me a new one. and she did.
that's nice of her because i dont think that i would've payed for someone else's new umbrella. It's a really expensive umbrella as well.
speaking of umbrellas i just got a new one because of the girl who fell on it. and it's half way through the time that i'm supposed to be here and i got a new umbrella. get it? it's like an umbrella for each half of the time that i'm here. how cool is that?
it's gonna be 8 degrees tomorrow - that's like freezing but not as freezing as now because it's like 1 degree. i dont have clothes for this weather. i have one coat and it's pink. And i have pink tracksuit pants. i cant wear the both of them together...what do i do?
this is really long. I can't keep my eyes open...
maddissonn says that it was snowing up state today. not here obviously because otherwise i would've known. it's really cold and i dont have clothes.
someone send me some clothes ok?

We're aiming for some D's so that on our transcript it will say D as is Distinction, not D as in A B C Dumbass.
I've noticed that the teachers here like to talk during the midterm exams.
What the hell is up with that? If I'm not allowed to bring in an essay guide or look over my shoulder at someone else's answer to question 32 or sms a friend, then they shouldn't be allowed to answer stupid questions regarding spelling or making jokes.
It's so disruptive to my already mangled brain. I don't need someone going:
"remember this painting guys? remember? we did it the other day. Just answer the question about it and you should be fine."
or
(some guy is coughing up a lung in the Holocaust exam) "wow, it sounds like a tuberculosis ward in here!"* Then people laughed which caused more people to cough. Who does that? seriously?
* I'm beginning to see that tuberculosis is a big deal around here.

quick quiz: short answer question #9
how do guys with acne shave?
the reason i ask is because there was a guy in the food hall today eating a mountain of french toast sticks for breakfast and then licking the plate and he had acne all over his face and mouth.

take out the s and give me a HOTEL
you know it's a good hotel when...

1) the room numbers are in the thousands

2) there are mirrors in the lifts

3) there are doonas on the bed

4) there are products in the bathroom

5) there's room service

6) there is expensive art on the wall

7) there are multiple lights in the room (6 to be exact)

8) 2 people can stand in the bathroom at once

9) theres a great view (30th floor baby!)

10) there is climate control

11) multiple cars can drive up to the outdoor area

didn't actually see Toronto Canada at all. Just stayed in the hotel room, watched TV, went to the pool, sat in the hot tub (before taking these photos), danced around the lobby Paris and Nicole style, called the front desk for help about when desperate housewives was on and kept washing our hair.
well we had to make the most of the 399USD a night room that we didn't actually end up paying for. That's so hot.
