Sunset in London from my residence. Photo stolen from Daniel Giacopelli.
This weekend has been packed with improv workshops, which has been great fun and full of lovely new people (and some old Canadian Improv Games amigos... there is no escape.), but has also left me somewhat homesick. It does not help that today is Canadian Thanksgiving, and I know for a fact that I am missing out on more than one amazing turkey dinner.
Mostly I've had to turn off my iPod; it is too full of music I associate with people and places that I love in Canada. It's not just the sad songs (or even the good ones) that get me all mopey: Justin Bieber's "Baby" and various tunes from Glee, for instance, recall embarrassing dance parties past that I would like to be reliving right now. Plus, JBiebz has been mocked to my face a number of times since I've moved here... some people are just intimidated by raw talent and true follicular beauty. These tunes are all prime for inducing "misty water coloured memmmmmmorrrrries" moments:
Remember that really intense danceparty we had to Sandstorm in your living room in K-Town? I think I almost barfed from dancing too hard. GTs, yo. PS this is Hali
