Hi Canadians!

Hey Shan,

Sorry I was reading the message wrong that you wrote to Ashley.. There's too many of us here, lol...

Ashie

 

Aaaaah! Reading all these posts that talk about throw-in is making me worry, and here's why: it sounds like loads of fun, but when does it happen? My travel date is March 29th, but my flight won't get to Orlando until like 10:30 p.m. and one of the Cast-a-way people mentioned maybe staying in a hotel instead of going to the Commons that night. So does all the fun happen the night you arrive, or the night before your training starts, or some other night altogether? I don't want to miss out!!

Hey Ashley!

Awww, I miss Jess. I threw it down to her cause she was the only other one dating a UK boy. It had been a trend with the two before me and then me too. Keep the tradition alive. Is the ring still on the shirt?

Shan

 

I agree with Robyn, if i get accepted im gonna party as much as i can, its a way to bond. I cant wait to party with other awesome Canadian's.....cus we all know we have the best beer and know how to throw a memorable party....!!
Sheena

 

Sheena- Don't know if I can really agree with you on the "having the best beer" thing! Can't really beat Germany ;D

Julia

 

hey Julia....i agree with you, germany does have great beer too!!!
Im slightly partial to my alexander keiths however, and my glowing pint cup to go with it!
Sheena

 

I want a glowing pint cup!!! Probably makes you want to drink even more! Sounds like the perfect Commons "friend" ;D
Hey you must all be loving your fantastic Milwaukees Best haha!

Julia

 

hey sheena!

did u say ALEXANDER KEITHS! oh my gawd! i was introduced to that fine beer about 5 months ago..and it's soo sweet and tasty! hahahahha sorry im a BIG beer fan...oh how i'll miss my beer when i go down to florida....not a fan of the famous german beer heiniken....blah! sorry...it's just sooo strong!

 

Yeah it glows, I got it on st pattys day! if i get accepted ill try and bring an extra one down for ya. My buddy had tons of them to hand out he might have extras. I think ill be having my family send me keiths if i cant find it in florida...i think a 24 a week will do for beer, maybe more well see... oh my what would i do without it...... ??? :'( :'( :'(

 

Sheena - I lived in Ottawa for awhile and got a kick out of how Keiths was often one of the pricier beers to get on tap! I'm from PEI and, for example, Keiths is THE cheap beer on our campus (UPEI).

Honestly though, I have to say I prefer Rickards Red. Started drinking that in Ottawa and by the time I moved back to PEI the Liquor Stores just started stocking it!

And I have a really weird question... Do they sell Keiths in cans? We don't have canned beer or soda on PEI so I was just wonderin'...

LOL the famous german beer Heineken is dutch Lizzie! I do like german beer because it is so strong ;D Although I also started to get into the whole mixed flavoured beer stuff YUMMY! You will love any beer once you have gotten to Florida and have tried Milwaukees Best! It is the worst beer ever, but it's cheap so it was a fellow friend for all of us LOL

I already did the program Sheena :'( But I just got a job offer for Ft Lauderdale and if I'm gonna do good at the interview I will be moving there end of May So I will surely visit you guys at the Commons!

Julia

 

oh my god julia thats great about the job in Ft L. wow, whats it doin, im excited for u, fingers crossed!!!

xxxx

 

It's a rooms division program at a Sheraton hotel in Ft Lauderdale. I would start as an operator, then front desk agent, accounts clerk, night auditor and supervisor. It's for a duration of 18 months. Would be fantastic for my resume!!! I'm gonna get a call for a selective interview from the hotel in the next few days and then I'm gonna find out for sure. Would be really exciting though ;D

Julia

 

awww wow i was looking into something similar but with marriott! good luck julia, sounds great!

Hey Sheena!!

Yeah at least 24 beers a week should do. I am trying to figure out what i am gonna do without our canadian beer. Although i must tell you that i am not that big of a fan of Keiths...i know that beer is huge out east. Here on the west coast, it is a trade off between Sleemans and Kokanee. But if Keiths is the only Canadian beer that i can get down there then i am all for it.

 

HAHHA it's dutch!!! :-[ now my face is red..but now that i think about it when i was in amsterdam all i saw was heiniken signs....down all those "great" streets! hahhaa...my bad..thanks for the correction!!!!

sheena, im not gonna be OLD enough to drink keiths down there..i'll have to do it secretly hahaha...

 

LOL@Lizzie Well you learn something every day! At least it explains the Amsterdam story LOL You will have as much fun drinking secretly, I had a blast!

Julia

 

how old were u when u worked there?

 

Hey everyone, You can buy labatts blue down here at the stores. But u will end up drinking the beast cause it is only 11$$$ for a 24 case.

You can also sometimes find moosehead beer but u have to look hard for that.

 

I was 19, so I was never overage during my time! Most of my friends were underage, too. The germans and norwegians mostly all go to Florida after finishing highschool, so that should explain it a bit.
