This morning I went downtown to my Dad's new building. We met some people, then went for a Starbucks. I sat in ten minutes of an acronym filled meeting which I didn't understand, then ran to catch the tour bus for the kids.
And who did I meet on the bus? But my friend from my class at school Maddie, and my friend Thomas' girlfriend Jessica! It was very very coincidental, because we all happened to be sitting in the same area of the bus. So we laughed, got people to wave at us, and yelled at people to try and get the eerie silence of the bus to die.
We did this huge tour of the three CanWest Buildings. First we ate Timbits, and took pictures with the 90210 poster in the Barber Green building. We went behind the scenes of ET Canada, and then a group of us went onstage and met Rick Campenneli. (I hope that's how you spell it.)

The whole group, me at the right side, Maddie in the pink, Jessica in the black.
We did the traffic, learned how to work the weather screen (we made the entire USA so windy and cold that you can't see it anymore.) I even read an entertainment newscast off a teleprompter.
Then we watched an epsisode of the Global TV Show 'The Guard' that would air on TV for the first time later tonight. It only arrived at the studio this morning.
Duncan Clarke and another journalist from the National Post talked to us about life as a reporter and working on a paper. We got these special newspapers printed with our faces on them and an article about our trip.
We saw a really hot construction guy, and played Are You Smarter Than A Canadian Fifth Grader? On our way to Dose online magazine. We went into their offices and saw a Rise Against poster, and chatted with them all about Twilight. I even won a prize pack with t-shirts and stuff by answering a trivia question.
Q: What is the name of Jacob Black's father?
A: Billy Black!
Maddie got to film a movie of Jessica and I in front of our whole group. It was a spoof of Heroes. I was invisible woman. I ran at Jess and dissappeared so she looked around wildly. Because of the fact that she's fire woman, she made a flame in her hand, but I attacked her and she exploded! It only took two minutes to make those awesome special effects!
It was a lot of fun, and now I'm sad to go back to school tomorrow! Jess is coming to the choreographic workshop Thomas and I have to do, and after that we're going to watch the Twilight movie, so not all good things come to an end!!!
