My God It’s That Expensive?
July 12, 2001
See the headline? The headline is back. The headline was hard to get back, but it’s back. Hurrah for headline.
I’ve been at UBC for 3 years now and every year I pay for a parking pass. Every year it’s the same price basically. This year the total comes to just over $600. When I saw this, I thought to myself, “Six hundred fucking dollars to park at a fucking parkade?” For some reason, this year I decided that $600 was just too much. I still bought the damn thing, but I just think it’s too much.
The reason for this is probably because we’re halfway through the summer now (I know… sad) and parking everyday at B-Lot or the Pacific Spirit something Fraser Lot at $3.25 and $4 seems a lot more economical than the $600 for the year. Also… I was informed of a secret parking area that’s always free and never empty. It’s a little farther away than B-Lot and it’s a little more secluded. I found out about it through a student who was amazed that "you’re a canadian and you don’t know this?" No. Sorry, not all canadians know every nook and cranny in Vancouver. Idiot.

Thanks goes to Justin for a pirated copy of a Bruce Lee flick. He bought it at a chinese vendor somewhere in the chinese area of Toronto, you know, Chinatown. Geez, I’m getting a strong suspicious feeling that it’s an imposter in the movie.
