>I have always felt out of place to some extent. When I was living in Lethbridge, I was a social outcast given several factors; a)Ethnicity- Chinese people were simply an oddity in the classroom, and it wasn’t yet quite the time for the Asian cultural explosion all over the media, as it exists in this…

>Currently listening to some classic junior high school angst- Garbage’s Version 2.0 album, a mixture of electronica, rock and bitterness. Unfortunately the disc is scratched to shit and I will need to buy a new record. This album reminds me so much of my early teenage years- acne, anger, no friends, low self esteem and…

>On Friday we had an early birthday bash for my 24th, given that birthdays on weekdays tend to blow. It was a very relaxing/fun time hanging out with my good friends and chatting like we didn’t have huge worries on our minds (careers anyone?). We went to Doris’ home and busted out some sweet cooking….

>Thursday- went out with Owen for the last real hang out before he heads off to Croatia! And probably heads out for good out of Edmonton. Le sigh. I had lots of fun this night. We hit up Taipan for the classic Portuguese chicken/egg fried rice combo, although i changed it up a bit with…

>In what can only be described as the most significant camera ever made (well IMHO), the Olympus Pen has just been released officially today. Based on the Micro 4/3 format, this is a series of large sensor cameras (hint good image quality across the board, if not most importantly within low light/high ISO sensitivity shooting)…

>Of course there were a whole bunch of phone announcements which sound really sweet and my pockets are really dry. The Samsung Omnio Pro has just been officially launched with the following rumored specs (can’t find official specs yet). * 3.5-inch AMOLED resistive touchscreen display w/ WVGA resolution * 800MHz processor * 5.1 megapixel camera…

>So not having a good day. Terrible day at work, terrible time at the gym, just a terrible not so good rotten day. It probably has a lot to do with me running off very little sleep. I wouldn’t be so moody if I actually rested well. Sometimes it would be nice to just shrug…

>The Boy Genius Report has just filed out its review of the Nokia flagship Nseries N97. After months of anticipation, and ignoring the pleas of the Palm Pre, Sony Ericsson Xperia and so on, I am bitter over the disappointing reviews I am seeing. It wasn’t just the Boy Genius Report that smashed the N97…

>My Bachelor of Education convocation was on Monday and it was perfect weather for it. It was cold! I LOVE COLD! I hated sweating everywhere with the damned gown and hat during my science convo. I also managed to lose my ring and let it roll down all the graduate rows. Sweet. It turns out…

>I’m going to make this a bit short cause there are so many pictures that it would be innately insane to post them all! Therefore I will post at most ten photos representing my achievement of graduating my program! Also kind of related, but I have discovered an important HTML code that allows me to…

>I have my BEd graduation tm! It will be the last step of my 6 year long journey. I am moderately excited, and slightly more concerned about how my fish are swimming like they are oxygen deprived. I am so glad it will be cool tm, only 14 degrees! This makes for a much better…

>So like my mind just lit up about a new found fact- I am fatter than I was months ago, and I could actually make use of my new found waistline! A year ago, I bought 5 pairs of Bannana Republic jeans from an outlet in Florida. Unfortunately at the time I had definitely ballooned…
