I journeyed there the Friday of March Break to see the sites and find out some more about the school. And it was basically awesome.
The scenery on the way up pretty much sucked though, there was a lot of construction and half built bridges going to nowhere. And I actually freaked out because there was no Inukshuks. I don't know if that's just a Nova Scotia thing, but when I was younger, if you passed any kind of rock on the side of the highway, there would be an Inukshuk built ontop of it.
OH MY GOD. On the subject of Nova Scotia scenery...

| This was my favourite thing to see whenever we drove anywhere. It's been randomly chilling on the highway for my entire life. |
But it was freezing. Which kind of sucked.
But during their information session, we learned many valuable timbits of information.
- Always carry something with you at night that can make a lot of noise so you can scare away bears
- If a moose runs at you, there's really nothing you can do to survive.
- The nearest zoo apparantly never locks the panther cage, so watch out for those.
- It's damn cold in North Bay.
- The campus pub will follow you on Twitter if you tweet about Nipissing
- The raccoons on campus are tame and you can pet them if you really want to....
- On the website, when they said town house dorms available, they meant cabins. Not good ones.
- Underage drinking is illegal, but they don't really care what you do.
-The campus pub does not mind tweeting underage kids about how drunk they are going to get in University
- Do not swim in the lake. There are snapping turtles.
So yeah.
I got accepted to Nipissing and am moving to North Bay next year.
