A lot of things have happened over the last month or so that I haven’t really mentioned, as I’ve been fairly busy, tired, lazy, or all of the above. Let me see… a (mostly) chronological bullet-point of events: I went snowboarding at Cypress with my brother (Jan 23). Was awesome. Here’s a couple videos my… Continue reading Say Uncle

Dine Out Vancouver 2008
Woooh… time to start catching up with some blog entries! I’ll start with the little bit of budget fine dining I was able to experience. I went to a few nice restaurants during Dine Out Vancouver 2008 with Shirley, John, Alex, and Ben. Thanks mostly to John for picking the restaurants! I just kinda tagged… Continue reading Dine Out Vancouver 2008
Don’t Throw Bottles!
Jesse and I went to the Commodore Ballroom and saw Brian Jonestown Massacre, Saturday night. Doors opened at 8. I think we entered around 8:30, grabbed a drink and settled at a table at the front. We chatted while waiting for the opening band to come out. I think they came out around 9:30 or… Continue reading Don’t Throw Bottles!
holy crap, I have a blog!
Ah right. Forgot about this. Okay fine, I knowingly neglected it. Not completely, though… I had a partially written post from a few months ago, but it never made the transition from Tomboy to WP. Things to report: First thing’s first. January has come and gone (along with a few other months…): me.age++; I got… Continue reading holy crap, I have a blog!
Snowboarding
Finally went snowboarding this year! Needless to say, it was awesome. I’ve never been to Grouse Mountain before so I was quite impressed with the view when coming down “The Cut.” Especially as the sky cleared up and the lights of Vancouver started to light up in the evening. Sunsets may be a cliché, but… Continue reading Snowboarding
Don’t worry, I know I need smaller posts…
School Holy crap, school has already started! Luckily, my schedule isn’t too intense (read: class starts at 2pm every day). heh. But… No more vacation!!!!! :'( I’m taking two computer courses, Advanced Software Engineering (CPSC 410) and Distributed Systems (CPSC 416), 20th Century Wolrd History (HIST 103), as well as the English Grammar course I’m… Continue reading Don’t worry, I know I need smaller posts…
Cowpoke ‘n Family Folk
I’ve fallen behind my blogging, again. Been busy playing w/Python and acquiring new toys: rollerblades, printer, audio player, extra ram for my notebook. Details on those and their related hardships, later. Just wanted to say I’ll be going to the Flying U to ride some horsies with my family. I haven’t been there for a… Continue reading Cowpoke ‘n Family Folk
Cramming the Snake
Yesterday, I had a nice time relaxing. Went for a bit of a bike ride to the park, played on the swings for a while (I friggin love swings!), got a venti coffee Frappuccino, took a look at Myung-Jin’s new camera (she is one of our current homestay students), did some blogging, and made hamburgers.… Continue reading Cramming the Snake
Catching Up
The presentation clogged up my blog buffer. *flush* Making Money Spent a few days power-washing a rather large driveway. I put on super strong sunscreen but I still got a little toasted. I’ll consider it nicely tanned. 🙂 The job will probably be the only paid labour I do all summer, which I’m fine with.… Continue reading Catching Up
Tofino Fishing, Link Dump
Tofino Alright, so I’ve returned from my fishing trip. Actually, I returned like a week ago. ^_^ I went to Tofino with my Dad, his girlfriend, and my brother. I caught the biggest fish both of the trip (my dad hooked it, I reeled it in), and of my life: a 22.5 pound Spring Salmon.… Continue reading Tofino Fishing, Link Dump
