July 1 , 2006

You are getting very sleepy....

Our TV went out of whack last week until Corey fixed it. The tried and true method of whacking it on the side.

June 30 , 2006
Mass updates because I've been bad with the updates lately.

May 26, 2006
Updated the books section and my blog.

May 6, 2006
Various updates around the site.

April 13 , 2006
Happy Easter! I'm back from Toronto but have been sick and out-of-commission. I'm finally feeling better so have been able to do some updates.

April 1 , 2006
A couple updates. I'm heading to Toronto for a course on Tuesday so there won't be any updates for a week or so.

March 25, 2006
Added a photo album of the St. Patrick's Day parade, finished a couple of books, and added more journal entries.

March 8, 2006
Been busy lately, what with physio twice a week and various other errands to run. Did manage to finish a couple books, start a new cross-stitch (photo to come), and enter a couple brief journal entries though.

February 27, 2006
The usual updates. My website is over two years old now. It was that long ago that I moved to Kelowna. Unbelievable.

Girl power! I was impressed that the women got so many of Canada's medals.

February 22, 2006
The usual updates.

February 16, 2006

February 1, 2006
Happy New Year! Updated my journal and the book section. I hope to add some Chinese New Year Parade pics soon.

Another unlikely pair. Apparently the hippo nibbles on the turtle's legs to get it to move and they have figured out other unique ways to communicate. They were put together after the hippo was rescued after the Boxing Day Asian Tsunami.

January 22, 2006
Updated a few sections.

An unlikely couple - hamster & rat snake. The hamster is named "Gohan" which means "meal" in Japanese. Apparently the rat snake wouldn't eat frozen mice so they tried a live hamster. But instead they became friends and the snake learned to eat frozen mice. Bizarre.

January 13, 2006
Added a new journal entry. My co-worker sent me this one day after I had to deal with a particularly angry physiotherapist or physioterrorist as he calls them...

He advised that this is what I should tell the next person who calls me for help with the workload system.

January 9 , 2006
Happy New Year! Went to Chun Yi on Friday night and quite enjoyed that. Hard core.

August 12, 2004
I know, I know. It's been ages. I've added a lot of back-dated journal entries and also a few new photo albums. I think I've updated nearly every section, come to think of it. I'm fast running out of webspace too so will have to look at other alternatives soon.

I updated my book list again. It's getting to the point that I'm finishing entire books before I even have the time to update this site. Also added some photos to my apartment album because I got a pet! A siamese fighting fish (according to Niso, they aren't too high maintenance). I am fascinated by this fish. I've never had any sort of animal before. He's very captivating.

July 9, 2004
I have managed to put up a slew of journal entries about my Montreal trip. I also re-designed my book list.

July 7, 2004
I'm back again. Unfortunately <grumble, grumble>. Had an unbelieveable time in Montreal. I put up a new album from my trip and added a few books to my list. I am going to get around to the monstrous job of updating my journal soon too. Promise.

June 23, 2004
A few updates here and there. This is my last update before I leave for Montreal. If I have time I'll be updating my journal from there; otherwise, I'll wait until I get back to Kelowna. Also have to figure out how to re-organize my "Read in Passing" page. I'm zipping through books so fast now the list is getting too long.

June 19, 2004
Journal entries, books, artwork, photos. Practically everything updated!

June 12, 2004
This weekend was a long time coming. More journal entries, more books since the last update. That's what happens when you read all day at work because you have no actual work to do.

June 8, 2004
I have added more journal entries. Also finally finished those Spanish poems so I added some more to my book list.

June 4, 2004
It's the 60th anniversary of D-Day on Sunday. Found this cool site that the Globe & Mail put together on D-Day. And I added a bunch of journal entries.

Already the end of May! Can you believe it? Summer is nearly here. A couple more journal entries posted since last update.

May 10th, 2004
Just finished another journal entry. And today I finally booked my ticket - I'm coming home on the Victoria Day weekend! Can't wait!!

April 12th , 2004
I'm back! It's going to take me awhile to update everything entirely though since I, to quote Scotty, "dropped off the face of the earth" while Corey was visiting. Well, he's left now, so that means new journal entries and new photo albums. Take a look when you've got the time.

March 30th , 2004
Check. It. Out. Two journal entries and an updated pic of my x-stitch.

March 24th , 2004

Anyway, journal update tonight.

February 29, 2004
