Yo so it's been almost a year. It's almost like every three hundred some odd days thsi happens, and people get all nostalgic about what has happened, as they should be I guess. Leaving things behind and attempting to start things a-new is a big thing to encounter. Practically a brick wall. You'll always carry your baggage and you'll always have the past, and past experiences to rely on for the future. Without those, you're a blank person each time around.
Really though, I'm looking forward to 2007. In seven months I'll have been alive for 2 decades. I think that's huge.
In less than two months if I keep planning this well, this country will be out of my mind for a while. Sorry, this country will never be out of my mind. Theres so much left to do here.
Ps. Ottawa is an adorable city, but if you expect it to be a Toronto or a Montreal, then you're in the wrong place. Solace is in the comfort and safety of this being home, this being big and small enough to be called a home and learning something new about it all the time, while everything still being familiar. These are things that I love about this city.
It's my city.
Although a train system would help a little bit.
