Is it Canada Day?

When I was walking home from work just now, I heard some drunken singing of "Oh Canada" behind me and thought it was completely random.

Huh.

:D

Since I have a number of 'Canucks' in my FLIST...

HAPPY CANADA DAY!You guys are definitely represented Down Under

BSG! I'm almost finished with Season 1.

[caderyn]

Fantastic! When are you getting season 2? Oooh, I can't wait to hear what you think of it so far!

[dexterette]

I'm picking up season 2 after work tomorrow!

When I've finished season 1, I'll post my thoughts. :)

:D Yes, it is, indeed, Canada Day today! How awesome is that? (and the worst part is, I woke up early this morning and forgot about it, so I didn't wear the red shirt I wanted to wear to celebrate. :( lol)

And it's funny that you should call Canada "Down Under", since here, we call Australia Down Under! ;)

[hedgie125]

lol nevermind, I just realised I didn't read what you wrote correctly... so forget about the last part of my comment! lol

[caderyn]

Hahaha, no worries. Hope you've had a great Canada Day. What's the traditional thing people do to celebrate? Fireworks?

[hedgie125]

Yup, fireworks. They're actually going on right now! I can't see them from my apartment, but I hear them alright! lol

There are also many concerts across Canada, usually. I don't know all of them, obviously, but I know there are some in my hometown, and in Quebec City, which is a really important Canadian city, where Hedley (my favorite band, in case you didn't hear... ;D) are right now. And I think there might be some parades too, but I couldn't tell you. I really don't know what goes on in the rest of Canada... I'm such a bad patriotic person. :( Usually, people in Quebec rarely celebrate Canada Day, seeing as Quebec Day in the week before (June 24th) and most Québécois would rather have the independance. It's a funny thing, I was just talking about this earlier today with my roommie... it's like we cannot decide to like both. We have to be either Québécois or Canadians. But I chose to be both! lol

Wow, that's a whole lot of rambling... sorry about that! :P

(you know what I should get? A "proud Canadian" icon! lol)

thank you!

go canada! happy 141st birthday!

[caderyn]

No worries!

141 years young, awww... So that would make it... Was it 1867 when you got your independence? Hmmm, I didn't realize you guys were almost a century younger than the Americans. Coolio.

[ollie_xox_tv]

yep. we're younger and more hip. canadaaaaaa!
