So I just realized America is missing out on a lot. Growing up, we always cracked jokes about how crappy your country is (no offence, sorry!) Those were some good times. I can't say I'm completely grown up, but I guess I'm still very Canadian and very patriotic and I want to go home some day. (:

Instead of rewriting my physics notes and studying I've been reminiscing. I guess maybe I'd share some:

1. Spelling - colours, neighbour, traveller, centre, defence
I love using these words purposely on my papers just to see how my teachers will react. Granted, it's probably not very smart, but heyy, it's how I grew up (: I actually don't use 'defence' very often (ironic because I like to write 'offence') but growing up I did go through a lot of turbulents with spelling --Teachers who wanted you to write "favorite" and others who wanted you to spell it "metre".

2. Pronunciation - I honestly didn't know I said things funny 'til I moved here. I guess you always learn new things.
Apparently I say "sorry" funny? That's too bad cause it's a staple in my diction. And "tomorrow", "borrow" and "lever". I was actually warned about "lever" beforehand but the others were a surprise to me. I tried to think backwards and I remember we sang a song called Children of Tomorrow and everyone pronounced it like I did. Don't know, don't careee. That's just how I'll talk. c:

3. Foods! - Aero, Coffee-Crisp, Caramilk, Kinder Surprise, POUTINE, ketchup chips~
Deliciousssss. I can't believe you guys are missing out on all of these. I loved loved Aero and Coffee-Crisp. Damn, those were basically mandatory at Halloween. Delishh. Poutine is self-explanatory~ ;)

4. TIM HORTONS - is the best. Seriously.
You need to try it. I <3 my Timmy's. Especially when we went skiing in the winter and you'd burn your tongue on the hot chocolate and it wouldn't taste so good anymore hahah. Ohh and timbits! YUM.

5. Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice.
I generally get the feeling that people like Canada more than America. Thinking back, I felt like Canada was more accepting. Gay rights, religion, you name it. Damn, I miss that place. :'c

I guess there'd be a lot more but maybe my outlook's just kind of obscured since I'm Canadian after all. There's no place that'll ever replace it in my heart. Sorry America. You just won't do. (:
