Olive This weekend was the food festival called Taste of Danforth in the heart of the Greek neighborhood in Toronto. Lots of people flocked to the outdoor event driven by great weather, good food and to join in the festivities.

Of course, who decides to get sick? Stupid body. I have this horrible flu that won’t go away. Runny nose. Coughing (Some random guy on the bus asked me if I was going to live after I coughed. People in Toronto are weird.). I still went because I really wanted to go, but my body didn’t really like it that much. I had to go home early. -_-;

My friends and I decided to go Saturday afternoon and quite a number of us showed up. Corporate sponsors are great, I got a Quattro razor for free (the reuseable ones, not the disposable ones) just as I left the subway station. It was amusing to get my friend to go back after we passed the guys handing it out to get one for his girlfriend. They were only handing out the pink female ones so it was a bit weird for him to get one. Regardless, she was pretty happy when he showed her what they had given out.

So we pigged out on food for the whole time. The meds were upsetting my stomach a bit so I didn’t really want to eat. I did eat a pork souvlaki (not too bad), fresh lemonade (amazing) and ice cream (waffle cone for $2). I also had fresh oyster for the first time. It’s always sounded pretty gross to me, but I tried it anyways. It can’t be any different than eating sushi and sashimi. The ones we had were really good. It could have used a little salt in my opinion, but my friends would argue otherwise. But yeah, it’s definitely on my list of “foods I will eat” now.

They were also handing out free Clodhoppers samples. I like them a lot. They’re my new favorite junk food, though I’ll refrain from buying them in the store cause I’m trying to cut down the sugar. When they’re giving them for free, though, what’s one or two packets?

I think I should go see the doctor tomorrow about this flu. I should be getting the worse of it right now, but it doesn’t feel like I’m getting any better. It’s what…the fifth day now? My voice sounds off. I can’t breathe properly unless I’m taking Bendryl at regular intervals. *sighs* It sucks to be sick.
