Saint Patrick's Day

Today is Saint Patrick's Day. Its an Irish festival with Catholic origins. Most people here celebrate St Paddy's by wearing green, eating Irish food and drinking(typical Irish).

Can see quite a lot of people wearing green in campus today. RSA even gave out free mint and chocolate ice creams! yummy! Was planning on going to a Strip club tonight, don't know if they will charge extra for today or not. Hopefully not, since its not an official public holiday in Calgary.

I think this festival will become more popular. Who will mind another Christmas? Haha

Just saw the news, last night(this early morning), a car crashed outside the university, with 2 21-year old victims. I think they were most likely out to celebrate St Paddy's, like the bunch of ang mohs I saw outside my apartment last night at around 2am who were on their way out. Damn happening.
