Queer of the Year – Day 1

So it looks like I’ll be staying in the gayest dorm ever this week. Me and horsie are going to become besties. I can’t wait.

And you know what that means. Vote for me… or vote for horsie on the wall. Maybe vote for both of us. But don’t vote for that guy doing his nails on the bed. Or for the pile of clothes. I am serious.

In other news, Ste-Catherine St in Montreal is sort of like Davie St… except it’s ginormous and entirely closed to car traffic during the summer… and super extra gay.

We’re having our first challenge tomorrow, so check back and see how I fare. xx
