Being From Away In Newfoundland

Life as an honorary Newfoundlander

Every Saturday Night begins

with your friends asking if you want to get turnt

Then you go to George Street

and you feel the burn of highway robbery

You're walking around dt like

wearing this outfit... in January

You've wound up at the Cotton Club

more than once

Every Sunday be like

You want to do touristy things

but... hangovers

You're always walking uphill

Like always... even when you're walking downhill... you're walking uphill.

The weather any given day

Your Friends say Hurricane

You say a bit breezey out there eh?

until it snows

But school is not cancelled. School is never cancelled.

You try to get to school

Found it.

Fries

with gravy... and dressing? Oh I couldn't possibly....

But you'll try anything once.

Even Jigs Dinner

enough said.

and some things

you will NEVER try again

Telling your best friend from home a story

and Your Friend's reaction

By the jesus ya would think they'd know what crooked meant wouldn't ya.

Then you catch yourself saying bys.

Youn finally make it to the airport

only to have your hopes and dreams crushed

The Nice Airline Lady

but we can get you out next Thursday....

But Your Tuition is 1/3 of all your friends... so.....
