So amused they mentioned West Edmonton Mall - Fantasyland Hotel.
Everyone has already taken out the books on how to draft a will for the upcoming CPLED assignment. Sigh. Tip: The week prior the assignment is assigned, get the books on how to draft wills.
Re: "Winner take all," by P. M. Woodward, Letters, Sept. 8.
P. M. Woodward complains that Caritas Hospital Foundation Lottery should give away four smaller cash prizes, rather than a grand prize of a$1.5-million house and $1-million cash prize because he would "feel more comfortable knowing I had a greater chance of winning a lesser amount of money than seeing one winner take all." The reason Caritas Lottery chose this strategy is because last year's ticket buyers complained if they won the house, they would not have the money to afford the upkeep of the house.
Furthermore, Woodward could choose to support the Cash and Cars Lottery which includes one grand prize of$1 million, and 12 smaller cash prizes. Another advantage of the Cash and Cars Lottery is the odds of winning are higher--one in 20, rather than one in 23 for the Caritas Lottery.
For CPLED - take these courses:
- Wills
- Family Law
- Real Estate Transactions
- Interviewing and Counselling
- Negotiations

Went to Wildflower Grill again on Friday to celebrate a friend's birthday. Although I had been to Wildflower Grill three times previously for dinner, I still like the restaurant. I like that they serve an amuse bouche. However, the brioche bread was a dissapointment. Usually, it's warm and tastes like bread from T&T Supermarket (an Asian supermarket in Canada) but this time it wasn't as flavourful or as mouthwatering as the other times I've had it. I had the Rack of Alberta Lamb which was pomegranate glaze | panko crust | yorkshire pudding | creamy fontina herb garlic fondue. The portion of the lamb wasn't substantial, but overall it was really filling because the panko crust was another serving of bread. I was also kind of annoyed at the server for trying to upsell the table with drinks constantly. This server seemed less sophiscated than Adam who had served me twice previously.

Afterwards, we went to the Ivory Club & Ebony Grille where Overtime used to be. The Ivory Club is a dueling piano bar. Two piano players play requests throughout the night. I was really impressed with their talent. The piano players would have to have the ability to play a wide repetoire of pop songs on the piano, and sing for an hour and half under hot lights.
Are there actually Alberta 2Ls or 3Ls reading this? Leave an anonymous comment. Sometimes, I feel like this advice doesn't really affect anybody.
My latest guilty pleasure is NYC Prep. It's like Laguna Beach meets Gossip Girl.
- If you are 2L or 3L reading this, take Judgment Enforcement. It's really useful for the second Module of CPLED.
- Keep your casebooks and textbooks from your classes. The highlighting of statutes that you did in class makes sense when you have to actually use it.

Went to Doan's today for lunch. A bunch of girls from CPLED walked from Grant Mac to Doan's and ordered as soon as we got to the table. We're efficient like that. I had Special Beef Noodle Soup (Brisket, Medium Rare beef, Well Done Beef, Beef Balls). It was really filling. We wolfed down our respective portions because of the time crunch, but it was really good. I would definitely go back again in less rushed circumstances.
How excited am I for Gossip Girl, Season 3! A bunch more promos at YouTube, but this one was my fave.

On the first day of CPLED, a bunch of us (6 girls) went to Mikado for lunch because my cousin suggested it and I hadn't had a bento box in awhile. We had no reservations but got ourselves into a booth. However, service was slow. At 12:25, nobody even came to our table to take our drink orders until we flagged the hostess to state that we were in a hurry. We had an hour long lunch break starting at 12:05 but eating at restaurants during an hour is always more time pressing. Thankfully, the word arrived quickly. I had the Bento Box A-4 with hot green tea. It had yummy chicken and beef, and shrimp and vegetable tempura and we made it back just in time for class.
As reported in the Globe and Mail, Clueless is going to be a musical!
One of the reasons why I think Edmonton is saturated is Coach is available at Southgate, WEM and Holt Renfrew. Kiehl's has their free standing store in Southgate, but Holt Renfrew has their line as well. Coach particularly has diluted their brand too much by having 3 locations for a population of 700 000. Their handbags are everywhere. I saw the same handbag twice in the span of 10 minutes at Heritage Days. Coach used to be an "entry level" luxury brand. However, now that their handbags are so accessible, they're not that special anymore.
