So over the weekend I caught the “Rockband live” tour featuring Panic At The Disco, Dashboard Confessional, Plain White T’s and The Cab in a faraway location in Toronto. It’s so faraway it’s technically not even Toronto anymore, but Missisauga.
My main issue with the concert was the amount of advertising shoved down our throats, but [...]

Wow this is obviously four days late and I can’t believe it. My excuse is that I had an assignment due on Monday and a presentation on Wednesday. Not truly excuses but anyways…
I’m going to break the format since this is a quick post.

When I was planning my trip up to Canada from New York, I decided I wanted to take the train instead of flying or the bus. I’m not a fan of the bus because it’s cramped and I need to use the toilet often, and flying is almost six times more expensive.
