Crash Talk

The only way this line up could be better is if Drake was tagging along with these cats. Alas, Vancouver, we’ll have to make do with hip hop’s biggest names and quite possibly one of the best and creative drummers of our generation.

Vancouver is the last date on Lil Wayne’s “I Am Music” tour and the show will obvz be at Rogers Arena. Last time, Lil Wayne couldn’t make it to the show in Van due to… issues… at the border. BUT third time’s a charm and hopefully customs will let him through this time.

Buy your tickets on February 4, 2011. Should be a great time. It’s BYOW.

So, I really should be studying, but I’ve decided that the only way to truly focus on a boring, lame textbook is to write it all out and get it off my chest.

It all started last night, when, walking to one of my classes, I noticed a Vista Cruiser and a Boston police car parked outside Buchanan Tower. Vista Cruiser, in my Fringe-manipulated mind automatically means Bishop-Mobile and I instinctively looked around to see if John Noble or Joshua Jackson were around. No such luck. I did, however, come across some pretty friendly crew members who told me that they were filming a stunt scene the next day and that Joshua, John, Anna Torv and Lance Reddick were supposed to be around. Sweet, I say. I’ll come back to campus on Friday when, by the way, I don’t have class, just to see if there’s a chance I can meet any of them.

I even stayed later than usual just to see if they would, by any chance, be driving back to their trailers at 7. But, alas, they weren’t back and I had to head home for dinner with my parents. I told myself that I would meet at least one of them tomorrow anyway…

Although I’ve been consistently blogging about TV shows, books and movies, there are a few things that I’ve fallen in love with that I haven’t been able to necessarily write about as of yet.

1. Provence
Provence is a restaurant I took my parents to for their wedding anniversary and New Year’s Eve dinner. It’s probably the best restaurant I’ve ever eaten at in Vancouver. At Provence you’ll find high quality food, service AND beverages for a price that is most definitely worth it. While our bill came to $200, we had ordered wine, appies, entrees AND a dessert, all of which were delicious, so we were definitely happy to pay. In fact, my parents loved it so much that they’re planning on going back for brunch. (I’m obvz tagging along).

highlight: My entree: Crab and lobster risotto. Best dish I have ever had at a restaurant!

2. Vancouver Canucks
My hometown team is rocking the NHL right now. Check out their stats and I’m sure you’ll find out exactly why I’m digging the ‘Nucks. With the way this team is looking, I will not be surprised if we end up with the Stanley Cup this year! Go Canucks Go!

3. iPhone 4
Been almost a month since I’ve fallen in love with my phone and I’m seriously still in the honeymoon phase. I’m actually starting to wish it was a man because if it WERE, it’d be that guy that’s really good looking and dependable and is perfectly suited to your needs and wants. It’s perfect and the interface is sleek and easy to use. Damn you, Apple, for making me join your cult!
