I made a late lunch for my mom on Mother’s Day. Yup. There’s that omelet again! My mom wasn’t here when I made it last weekend, so naturally, I had to make it again. 🙂 I stuffed these with a lot of onion and mushroom. Not a bad thing, at all, but it certainly prevented… Continue reading Mother’s Day Lunch and Knife 4 Life

New Digital Camera: Canon PowerShot D10
(photos below) My beloved Canon IXY (ELPH) digital camera has finally (mostly) died, thanks to me putting it in a bag that had falsely secure liquids. (It got beer on it and now it behaves very strange and lacks some features, such as playback.) Oops. Anyway, I don’t like having to be so careful with… Continue reading New Digital Camera: Canon PowerShot D10
2008 In Review
Life This year has been pretty big. Naturally following up with lots of events from last year, these are some quick memories. My nephew, Rayden, was born on Feb 12th, six weeks early! This caused the father (my brother) to be indisposed for my dad’s (2nd) marriage on Feb 14th. I got bumped up to… Continue reading 2008 In Review
A Guide to Email for that Forward-Loving Family Member
Dear Dad, I’m happy to read something written by you. Really, I am. However, I’m tired of reading reams of forwarded drivel. (But please do not think you are responsible for this.) Being one of these “modern generation” kiddies (and especially in my case) I spend a lot of time on the computer already. I… Continue reading A Guide to Email for that Forward-Loving Family Member

Things have not been so good around here, recently. But I’ve managed without any real incident, with the exception of last Tuesday night. Over the course of a couple weeks, it was determined that one of our home-stay student’s bedrooms had bedbugs. (Since they hitch rides on luggage, they are most common in places with… Continue reading Sky
Netbooks
“Netbooks” are a fairly recent thing; smaller and more affordable than a regular notebook PC… What’s not to like about that?! 🙂 Asus first tapped into this market with their Eee PC and it has since gone through its second (I think) generation. Eee PC’s generally get great reviews with the one complaint being their… Continue reading Netbooks
Congratulations!
Update: Added a couple photos. 🙂 My Big Brother, Aryk, is now officially married to his wife, Heather! The wedding was Sunday, August 3rd and it went extremely well. I had the honour of being best man which meant a lot to me. I even got to wear a kilt! (Along with my brother, their… Continue reading Congratulations!
Say Uncle
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
2007 in Brief
Despite no grand plans of getting pleasantly inebriated tonight, 2007 was actually a very eventful year. I finally finished up my undergrad in May; something that was long overdue. After, I enjoyed some free time in Vancouver’s fantastic summer (and then Fall), and I just recently started making a much needed dollar. (I got Jesse… Continue reading 2007 in Brief
Love is in the air…
Two of my friends got married on August 25th, 2007. Congratulations to Kurtis and Nubia in São Paulo (sorry, I wasn’t able to attend), and Alex and Desiree in Vancouver (it was a very nice wedding). I’m happy for everyone! 😀 Also, within the same week, my big brother announced that he popped the question… Continue reading Love is in the air…
