Spencer's Landing Restaurant at Spencer Smith park


wow that is a beautiful piece of architecture. .__.


lol I live near all the $hitty old buildings like the town museum.



I'd say out of all high schools in my town, mine has the lowest proportion of Asian students, at around 20% to 25%.



OR, ALTERNATIVELY:

its a landmark here in burlington, from what ive heard it attracted around 17 000 tourists last year alone. thats pretty good for a young and super duper expensive restaurant.

wait? you go to brother andre high school right? i was confused because theres also a brother andre high school at stouffeville...

thats still alot compared to my old high school lol. its less than 1% asian. its 98% white and 1.5% indian.

NO THERE IS NOT LOL.

There is no Catholic HS in Stouffville so they come here. Hahaha. About one third of our student body is from Stouffville I think... It's the closest one to Stouffville, cuz like I said, it's the part of Markham with the least Asians. Lots of farmland haha.

Okay I don't have any good pictures of the actual city I live in, but I have pictures of Houston since it's the closet city to me:



My mother works here as a nurse, and I was born in this hospital



Reliant Stadium, where the Houston Texans play, and if your familiar with the "halftime incident" with Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson, it happened at this facility.



Williams Tower (formerly Transco Tower)



Houston skyline



Astrodome, the Houston Astros and the Houston Oilers (now Tennessee Titans) used to play



Downtown Houston and Minute Maid Park, where the Houston Astros currently play



Houston Ship Channel



Houston Galleria, biggest mall in town



NASA Johnson Space Center, houses Mission Control who helps monitors NASA's manned explorations. Which explains the "Houston, we have a problem" by Neil Armstrong.
