Like A Virgin

Ok, so I woke up this morning at around 9.15 which meant the jet lag I had been experiencing for the past few days had all but left my system. Good start. By this time most of you in the U.K would have gone about your day and looking forward to your evening, but I had just woken up. After showering and getting dressed we; Martin, Colin and I made our way downstairs to the welcoming sound of Madonna singing about her childhood molestation. 'Like a virgin' has not left my head all day and still now (11.45pm) “I am making my way through the wilderness”.

Unfortunately I have been touched by little luck over the past 48 hours or so. I still have no accommodation from November 1st onwards which is getting getting increasingly worrying, and is only made worse by the fact I still have no job. Shit. But you all know me, somehow I will pull it off. No doubt about it, Penthouse flat, executive job, back rolling in twenties within a matter of weeks, and when the snow starts I will be at the top of the lift, strapped in and ready to blaze. But until then there's a lot that needs to be done.

So, while being touched for the very first time, I set out back into Vancouver to continue the search for the best deal on mobile phones for Whistler. Before we go any further, without trying to get a mobile in Canada you have no idea how difficult this can be. In no way can it be compared to phone shopping in the UK. There's no getting a cheap pay and go sim and topping it up and ringing your mum. Nah mate, none of that. I'm not even going to go into detail about this ridiculously hard task but for any Call of Dutiers reading this, think 'Mile High Club' on Veteran, and lets just say I didn't save the hostage.

Luckily in a number of the shops containing these pieces of shit mobiles there were 360's demoing both the new Rock Band and the new Guitar Hero. Thus calming the temper which ROGERS mobile had ensured. Both games are insanely good and will be one of my earliest purchases when established in whistler. I highly advise getting one if not both. My temper also dampened by the fact that I achieved top score on every song completed. Pretty surprising really due to the fact a ridiculous percentage of the population here in Vancouver are Asian.
There are also a lot of homeless people and prostitutes although they didn't put up much of a fight in the G.H rankings so it is hardly worth mentioning them.
Yeah so anyway this is my first post to the blog and is written on our last day in Vancouver. I will try to post more with actually interesting or humour stories but Martin insisted that I write one today, I will also edit the videos filmed before we left and upload all those worthy. Bring on whistler.

Have a sweet ass Halloween.
