    I love languages, and at UBC, I took a Swedish course. I fell in love with the language (I also had…read morean awesome teacher, which played a big role in loving Swedish so much), so when I graduated from UBC, I wanted to continue studying Swedish. Unfortunately I was only able to complete one year of Swedish due to the timing of my graduation, and I couldn't take the second year Swedish class after I graduated because the course was only offered during the day, which interfered with having to work. However, I found out that Swedish (and the other Nordic languages) was offered at the Scandinavian Community Center, and took some classes over the years. The teacher was nice, but the quality of the instruction was nothing compared to UBC. But it was definitely better than nothing, and the price was very reasonable. The last time I took lessons at the Scandinavian Community Center was years ago, probably 2013. I'd love to take more lessons, but taking transit there is a nightmare. The community center is in the middle of nowhere, and there are two busses you can take from Metrotown Station, the #110 and #144 buses. The bus ride is quite long, 20 to 30 minutes (because they take these meandering routes), the timing is such that they arrive way before the class starts or minutes after it starts, and the two buses leave Metrotown within minutes of each other, so you miss one, and you miss both. And in the evening, the timing doesn't align with the class's end time, so you either have to leave class early or wait for half an hour in the dark, at an unlit bus stop, that's just a bus stop sign stuck in a ditch on the side of a super busy highway. Perhaps things are different than when I took lessons, but back then, to walk to and from the bus stop to the center (which was at night, as the class starts at 7pm and ends at 9pm), there was no sidewalk so you had to walk on the side of a busy highway and hope a car didn't hit you. It was particularly terrifying when it was pitch black (there was no lighting) and raining. I'd love to give the Scandinavian Community Center more stars, and I'd love to take more Swedish lessons, but the location is horrible and not reasonably transit accessible, and the instruction is only so-so, so not worth it for me to make the trek.

    Today I attended a German Meetup.com group function here…read more Sadly this location offers little shade in the amazingly awesome day we had, so sommerfest attendees were left to their own devices with very limited seating and poor bathroom markage. Needless to say the beergarden setup was akin to a cakewalk game.

    I will be describing the setup of the wedding I attended, so you guys can have a visual of how…read morethings fit. The venue was able to fit around 8 round tables that can seat 8 people per table, not including the long table for the Wedding Party of about 9 by the front, or as you enter through the doors, it would be to your left. Now, to the back, or to your right as you enter, is where the photobooth was set up by the wall. The DJ was set up in the very corner, beside a small bar that was set up right by the kitchen entrance. Infront of the kitchen entrance, a dessert table was set up by the wall, where the cake cutting was also done. Games were done by the front & the dance floor was done by the back, which by the way will be a bit crowded if you will be having that many people at your wedding/event. The food was served to the tables throughout the event, which by the way were all delicious! The kitchen staff/servers were on their toes, refilling drinks at the tables & are quite courteous, if I may add. For restrooms, I don't know about the Mens, but for the Womens it has 3 stalls, 2 sinks, 1 hand dryer, paper towel dispenser, and it is CLEAN.

    Had a Mary Kay event here last week and in all my years of living in New Westminster, I have never…read moreactually stepped foot in the door. Not even when I was planning my wedding. The best part of the venue is it's location, inside Queens Park. It's beautiful and a little off the busy ball fields. However, it's stifling hot in there even with all the doors open. I was thankful that I had a seat close to the balcony or I would have been a sweaty mess. The inside is very nice and I look forward to when my friend has her wedding there in September however, it wouldn't be my number one choice for a venue in the summer because of the heat.
