Oooooooh.... Canada:

I have been in this country for 5 years now and again I am amazed by their profound inability to have things in their stores on upon the date of release. In my history of being here, the only thing that I recall that was released on time was Halo 2. Good for them. Had they not, entire cities subsequently would have been burned to the ground.

Taking this into consideration, I assumed - a terrible thing to do, that one of six stores would have released the much anticipated sequel to one of the most unique RPGs on PS2 - Kingdom Hearts 2.

I was excited for it! I grabbed a friend and we went to Saint John so that I could claim that which I have waited about two years for. But ooooooh cruel fate....

They didn't have it.

Nor were they sure when they'd be getting it. I think that I heard 3 different release dates - 2 of those opposing dates being from stores of the same franchise.

My spirit was crushed, but it only fueled my distain...

Ooooooh Canada, you'll rue the day you crossed me...

Um...can you hold back before you do anything too terrible to this country- I would prefer to finish my degree before I'm forced to flee for my life:P

*written tounge in cheek eh*

Ok, so I am tired of American's bad mouthing Canada. We did not chose to have you come to our country, you chose us. Therefore, I am tired of seeing BBC bloggers, or hearing past students, or whatever, grip and complain. If you don't like it GO HOME! *again, remember this is tounge in cheek*. I love Americans! I even married one, and have a son who is 1/3 American, but how rude would it be if I started criticising where I live (Costa Rica) for not have Narnia in theaters until February or some equally rediculous thing. If you don't like, go home ya YANK!

*PS: I love you Dame!*
