I've moved to Toronto recently for a new job, which is downtown. I live up in the Markham area.

I am currently living with relatives, and having just moved here, I don't know anyone. My close friends are not in the same area, obviously.

I am in my mid-twenties, and while I like to go to night clubs, maybe see the occasional live concert, and once in awhile go to a pub, I am open to pretty much anything. Euchre anyone? :P

As nervous as I am writing this, I'm a little excited. I would like to meet others from the area. While I realize there is a Toronto meetup scheduled for this weekend, I fear I may not be able to attend because of other plans. I also realize that people have their own lives to take care of, so I know trying to schedule anything can be hectic.

The first thing I saw that interested me while walking downtown a bit was a flyer for the Dark Side of Oz/Rainbow at the Cineforum, which I think is near College/Bathhurst. I wouldn't mind hearing if anyone has gone to this and would comment, or if anyone would like to attend this with me, I would be happy to tag along.

This aside, does anyone have any suggestions for me? Things to do, places to see in Toronto as a whole? I'm brand new to the area, and even more brand new to downtown, as I only get a chance to be there every so often.

If anyone would like to make a new friend, I can usually be found on IRC using this same nickname. I'm usually pretty quiet, but I do like to chat. Send me a private message/query on the IRC or here on the forum so I make sure I get your message.

Regarding the meetup this weekend, if I can make it I will. I do hope those in the area can schedule these more often, say, once a month?
