Rent is a lot of money , and I dont have a job yet(just graduated). So I am moving"back home" with the rents, although they've only been in Ottawa for a year and half now. Ive got some job stuff on the burners here so I might be back in the new year . In many ways I hope I come back here and in others I want to stay living in Ottawa lol cheap lol save money.
Plus with my dad being sick itll be nice to spend some time with him. *I did post, but as a reminder he was diagnosed with ALS (lou gehrigs disease)*
I enjoy Ottawa quite a bit. Much nicer pace to that city although the drivers are horrid! WAY worse than here. It would be nice to have a solid winter too
So ya. Ive been in Sauga for 20+yrs . Itll be wierd living in another city (although I may be back) and itll suck being away from my g/f.
Itll also suck missing the Proom and downtown although Ottawa has some stuff to offer I find its more of a house feel to the place.
I hope to be back in the GTA sooner than later. Ill be back and forth though so hopefully I can make it out to some events. Its been great meeting many of you and partying. (Im not leaving the board or anything), just saying

Don't think I've ever met you, but Best Wishes to your dad. I just moved to Alberta for similar reasons. Actually grew up in Ottawa, it's alright I guess if you are new to it lol I find it SO boring! Go to Hull/Gatineau for good strip clubs though, that's always a good time
enjoy ottawa.. sometimes it gets boring.. but there are a lot of small / hidden gems of 'raves/parties' and cafes/bistros that can be enjoyable with friends.
around 20 of us torontonians are heading up there in January for some Citrus Orange trance/techno thing. you should come!
all the best to you / your family!
(ps: dammit, you can have Beaver Tails anytime you want now. /goes through withdrawl from those sugary treats)

Killaloe Sunrise FTW!
Have a good time in Ottawa. Most people say "Ewww, it's so boring!" But I think Ottawa is a nice city. I love the fact that it's not covered in highrise buildings. There's the Experimental Farm, Hogsback Park, Rideau Canal, etc.. And J00F has a residency at Surface...what more could you ask for?!

Never met, but best luck to your father.
I've been looking to move to Ottawa before, but it fell through. There is not as much job availability in the IT/computer industry and for those reasons I chose to stay, but I would love to live there. Nice clean, friendly city.
