Calgary
When I first told everybody I was moving to Calgary, most of my
friends were rather surprised. Everybody was telling me what a big change it
was going to be. I just told everybody that it wasn't a big deal. A northern
American city is a northern American city, blah, blah, blah. To me, it didn't
matter if it was Canada or the U.S. I mean, isn't Canada the 51st state
anyway? Actually, when I finally arrived in Canada, I noticed some really
big differences, some good, some bad. Overall, I've become quite accustomed
to living up here, and I really like it, but there are some things I miss about
the US. The purpose of the following pages is to give you an idea of what
it's like to live here.
Pictures of Calgary
I have collected tons of pictures of Calgary. Some of the pictures are mine, and
some are postcards, but I've got most of the pictures from looking at other public
domain websites. Together, they make quite a nice collection. I've even grouped
them for you:
Canadian Vocabulary
I have learned that Canadian's have their own vocabulary.
They mispronounce words, add useless words, and even conjure up strange
phrases. This is worth a good laugh!!!
Speaking Canadian
What I like and don't like about living here
This page explains the good things and bad things about
Calgary. In other words, this is my chance to bitch about living
up here, but at the same time, really brag about the neat things
Calgary has to offer.
