Tune : Simple Plan - "Untitled (How Could This Happen To Me)"


[English]

Yesterday I bought tickets to the new Harry Potter movie and a Simple Plan concert :D Finally I get to see one of my favorite bands! Wooto! As Lauren would say *snicker* Only annoying thing is that it is November 23rd, one day before the hockey game. So that will be two nights with not so much sleep. O well I can do that for Simple Plan :D

Besides the ticket buying I went out to look for a job, subscribed myself to several temp. job agencies and bought a poppie. That’s a red flower to remember the Canadians that died in WW2. This Friday it’s Remembrance Day see ;)

For now some pics (most of them made yesterday because the sun actually shone :| , today it rains again....)



First bash of pics



The billboard I wrote about earlier // De busposter waar ik eerder over heb geschreven



The building of The Vancouver Sun and The Province, the two major regional newspapers here // Het gebouw van de Vancouver Sun en de Province, de twee grote regionale kranten hier



View on the Convention Center // Uitzicht op het conventie centrum



Just a pretty view on the sea and mountains // Mooi uitzicht over zee en bergen



Convention Center again // Wederom het conventie gebouw



Mountains & sea // Bergen & zee



Moutains, sea & moi // Bergen, zee & ik



Moutains, sea & moi // Bergen, zee & ik



Mountains & sea // Bergen & zee



Mountains & sea // Bergen & zee

Gisteren heb ik kaartjes gekocht voor de nieuwe Harry Potter film (nov. 18) en een Simple Plan concert! Wooto! Zoals Lauren zou zeggen :D Simple Plan is een van mijn fav. bands en nu kan ik ze eindelijk zien. Wel jammer dat het concert de 23ste is, want de 24ste is de hockeywedstrijd (twee dagen weinig slaap dus) maar dat heb ik wel voor ze over.

Naast het kopen van kaartjes heb ik gisteren uitgekeken voor een baan, mij ingeschreven bij 5 uitzendbureau’s en een poppie gekocht. Dat is een rode bloem (zie foto’s) ter nagedachtenis aan de gestorven Canadese soldaten in de 2e wereldoorlog. Het is vrijdag namelijk Remembrance Day.

Voor nu wat foto’s (de meeste zijn gisteren gemaakt omdat de zon eindelijk een scheen, vandaag is het weer schijtweer)

On Friday morning at 10:30am, there's always a Remembrance Day ceremony at Victory Square (on the corner of W Hastings and Cambie, downtown). You might be interested!

Also, have you been to Stanley Park yet? :)

No I didn't know, thanks so much. But do the skytrains even ride? Because there was some sort of announcement saying they drove from 6.30 till 12.30 and I was wondering if that was 12.30 in the afternoon or night :$

I have not been to Stanley Park yet, but I very much want to. I just need a bike first and hope there will be a (few) shiny day(s) for me to explore that part of Vancouver (looks so great on pics etc.!)

Already said it but...

those pics are awesome :D Can I say dude don't worry - it's been raining everywhere? LOL Even flooded Adelaide and washed away all the decorations I saw on Sunday after I left. Sadly I have no pics though cause we thought we wouldn't be allowed to take cameras into Kelly Clarkson :(

Great to get an insight into what's happening over there. Simple Plan *jealous* so cool that you're going though cause u did want to see them *nods* Um they are fantastic live *grin* Least they were when I saw them "before they were famous" *snigger* You're so taking advantage of everything while you're there... I get the feeling I would too if I were on that continent. hehe.

K much *love & hugz* have to depart now. Hopefully I can get that 5 page reviewness up for u tonight ;)

LOL Well it's been good weather in the Netherlands the last few days :P That's what I am comparing with. Besides I can complain can't I? :P

Thanks for the compliment on the piclets :D *hugz*

*skips away to check if the 5 page review is up yet*

ELZARINA!

I meant to post on this post when I saw it like...5 days ago. But I was having a mind-warp and totally forgot. Then I was away, and blah blah blah. Excuse excuse excuse. I'm just slack. You know it. I know it.

The pics are awesome! Go the cloudy sky! It adds a bunch of drama. Oooh, scary!

WOOTO! Simple Plan!!! My Dad made me a CD of a whole bunch of Simple Plan songs the other day. Why he had SP songs on his computer -- I don't know!

I want your green jacket! Mmm. I love Army type stuff.

Can you tell I had orange juice today? I'm hyper. And I have to go post. Talk to you soon, I hope!

LMAO I hope it was plup free ey :P

Hmmm maybe you should interrogate your dad about the SP songs... suspicious

Anyways thanks for the compliments, no worries about u supposedly being a slack and tty soon *hugz*
