Fun and Game

Looks like my silly “Does your weblog own you?” quiz from 2002 is making the rounds again. The first time I took the quiz almost four years ago, the result said that my weblog owned 37.5% of me. I took it again a couple of days ago and still got the same score! And I…… Continue reading Fun and Game

Kite Cam

I think I know what I’m going to do this summer. I’m going to build this kite camera and fly and take aerial pictures with it every weekend. Well, maybe not every weekend. Some weekends will do. It’s going to be fun, fun, fun! But for now, I’m going to concentrate on making a pinhole…… Continue reading Kite Cam

Another Weekend Report

So, another weekend has come and gone. Boohoo! We spent the weekend at Troy’s parents’ place. A weekend there usually means a game-playing weekend, but not this time. On Saturday, Troy’s dad drove us down to the shore of Lake Erie so we could see and take pictures of the newly-built wind turbines. I’ve only…… Continue reading Another Weekend Report

Forgetfulness

For some reasons, I keep forgetting that Advil doesn’t work on an empty stomach. At least not in my case. I popped two this morning but it didn’t do anything so I spent hours feeling crappy. I kept telling myself to go grab a banana, but I was too stubborn to submit, mostly because I…… Continue reading Forgetfulness

Capote and V

We went to see Capote and V for Vendetta last weekend. Both movies are kind of disturbing and both show how human beings can be so manipulative. I think the Oscar for Philip Seymour Hoffman was well-deserved. His acting was great. Though I wish he got an antagonistic role less often. Well, some people might…… Continue reading Capote and V

Long Time No Blog

Well, it’s only been a week or so, but it’s still a long time. I guess. It’s just that I have been having blogger’s block all week. There’s only one way to break a blogger’s block: redesign! It’s been a long time coming, really. This design has been up for more than a year. I…… Continue reading Long Time No Blog

My Genius Husband

Summer last year, Troy picked up a Canon Rebel XS camera with a broken shutter curtain from a garage sale for relatively cheap. The person who sold it to him said that it wouldn’t cost much to have it repaired. Liar. I asked around in some Canon photography forums and everyone said that buying a…… Continue reading My Genius Husband

Late for the Party

So this year’s International Women’s Day was yesterday. Honestly, it makes me feel uncomfortable. I have no issues with the idea behind it. I just have issue with it being called the International Women’s Day. Why not call it the International Gender Equality Day instead? Calling it the International Women’s Day only makes women sound…… Continue reading Late for the Party

Orange Roughy

When we went grocery shopping last night, I picked up a fish fillet to be made into some Indonesian fish cake called Pempek. The fillet came from some white meat fish called the orange roughy. I’d never heard of the fish before but I thought as long the meat was white, I should be able…… Continue reading Orange Roughy

About the Oscars®

Well, we didn’t care enough about the Oscars to watch the ceremony, but reading the winners list is always interesting. And, OMG, MY BOYFRIEND WON AN OSCAR!!! Well, Philip Seymour Hoffman is not really my boyfriend, but Troy always refers to him as my boyfriend, him being my favourite actor and all. We wanted to…… Continue reading About the Oscars®
