A slimey lawyer, nooooo, tell me it isn't so. I thought things like that only happened in America. Oh by the way, the person that said you should tell them what state, maybe toronto as a moniker should have been a clue.
Just relax, and have a good time. I'm sure when you get there you will meet some people who are just like you, there because of their parents. Also, try to write your parents a note while you are there telling them what you are up to.
