    I don't know, we kinda got over it like 4 months ago :) Most of the town still supports him fully, plus the whole thing is like a media circus, we would've gotten more attention if kobe didn't had his daily court hearings :D

    thats the spirit !! :D anyway, i prefer getting a cup of gelato and walking down along denman ave, at the west side of downtown towards the beach. Probably one of the nicest places to be during the summer :) especially when everybody is in bikinis :) but trust me, no city outside of china...

    Well, i come from vancouver, and I've been to montreal as well. In my opinion, there is no better place to live than Vancouver, there is a reason why it is rated as the top3 cities in the world every year. Vancouver is absolutely gorgeous, and there is a lot of nightlife too. You want a...
