a film that needs to be seen

Over the hedge is an amazing computer animated film that really needs to be seen. Some cute little animals which live in a park wake up after their hibernation. During the winter a huge hedge grew and of course they don't know what to do - they've never seen something big like this. Suddenly the very selfconfident raccoon RJ appears and tries to help the scared park inhabitants. He has a lot of experience and doesn't know the word fear. He wants to show his new friends the life that is going on behind the hedge and therefore they go through funny and dangerous adventures. They eat and drink chips, coke and all the delicious food the settlement over the hedge offers. Unfortunately they can't get enouth and of course RJ instigate them to get more and more till they get into a really difficult and dangerous situation. The people, living in the settlement, notice that the animals come to their yards to steal food. Therefore, they try to catch and kill them. Now, everybody needs to work one for all and all for one. They help each other to escape from this situation and try to go back to the park to bting themselfs to safety. For sure the film has an happy end but you should see your own what exactly happens . Enjoy ;o)!

a strange encounter

2 months ago I've been in a really strange encounter. I met a woman in the bus on my way home. Well to be honest I don't know if it was a woman I think it was more a "he" but I don't wanna say "it" so now it's a woman. When I entered the bus she had already taken a seat. Her left leg was broken so she put it up on another seat. Her clothing was very strange, dirty, too tight - she seemed homeless but she wasn't. She was talking to everybody who entered the bus. So to say she was more or less nice and open but the most stange thing was "her arm". She must have been run away from hospital. A needle from an infusion stuck in her arm and a tube went from the end of the needle into ther jacket. I had no idea what's wrong with her so I felt kind of scared because I thought she was supposed to be in hospital but she wasn't as I could see. The next day I saw her again and some time later again... I can't explain why it feels strange to see her because she is more or less nice and Vancouver has many strange people but she makes me really feel uncomfortable...

how to survive in Vancouver

1. come to Vancouver for a looooong time because you can see a loooot!

2. you should know that you have to make a diet befor you come to Vancouver beacuse you'll gain weight very fast. Maybe that's the result of all the delicious restaurant you'll find and need to try.

3. go and see to the beautiful mountains, Stanley Park (you could go there for rollerblading or cycling), the Aquarium (you need to see the cute ottercouple), and everywhere else - it'll be awesome!

4. you are better over 19 years old because you really have to enjoy the nightlife :o). Going to Granville Street with all your friends will be one of the great things to enjoy during your stay.

5. meet maaaany interesting, nice, international students - annnnnd real Canadians (they are not blond and they don't have blue eyes :o) !)
