I have been in Ottawa for a week now!

[Peaker]

Hey there, you guys might have noticed that I haven't been around much, either on the forums or in game. The reason for that is because I just moved to Ottawa in order to study at U of Ottawa and I arrived last week. I have to say it's quite hectic, but here are my observations thus far:

1. Beer is really expensive.

2. I had no idea what a beer store was (We usually buy our beer in cornerstores), but I quite like the concept!

3. Something something about beer.

4. Wow, a lot of people speak French, it's awesome.

5. Smokes is delicious, they make great poutine.

6. I discovered Shwarma and it's delicious.

7. Ontarians (Students at least!) seem to be lightweights when it comes to drinking, but they more than make up for it with enthusiasm.

8. The city is beautiful, it looks a lot like Quebec City with the copper roofs and the architecture. Very compact though.

9. I love my classes!

Since your in Ottawa get someone to take you for pizza and gravy, if they have drunk there before they will know where to take you.

@ Gardner: I never even heard of that, but it is duly noted, it does sound delicious.

@ Gooderham: I am from Quebec City, which I love with all my heart!

@ Parker: I did think about Toronto, since I could have gone to U of T, but they didn't offer my program (Conflict Studies and Human Rights) and I dunno, I kinda wanted a smaller city to uproot myself to. It's also somewhat farther from home, here I can just cross the border into Quebec and enjoy much reduced liquor prices.

Nice man! But I thought that you were going to the military University in Kingston. And by the way, shawarmas and kebabs are like the nicest thing ever to be created by man in an eating purpose!

Poutine and shawarmas the best hangover cures

[Gooderham 1st MRB]

Shwarmas are the best drinking food. Poutine the best cure.

[A. Cannon 1st MRB]

Shwarmas are the best drinking food. Poutine the best cure.

Idk because shawarmas give you garlic breath...
