+ See? I look like the guy on the t-shirt. – Yeah, but I look too happy, unlike the monkey. + Why wouldn’t you? – Why wouldn’t I what? + Be happy? – *pause* I don’t know. *confused because for once she actually had no reason to be unhappy* We got ours for free but…… Continue reading Bad Monkey!

Short Short Story Thursday
From this week on, every Thursday I’m going to post a short short story that I wrote myself. Feel free to do the same if you like. The following story was originally written to amuse Troy at work. There was this ghost who went to see a doctor because he wasn’t feeling well. The doctor…… Continue reading Short Short Story Thursday
Wonderfully Random
— It’s starting to feel like Canada again, now that the temperature has gone down to the high 20s (Celsius degree). — I seem to handle hot weather worse than Canadians, who are used to cold weather. — If Canadians did live in igloos, they’d all be homeless by now. — We went to Toronto…… Continue reading Wonderfully Random
Crazy Hot Spring
Summer is not officially here yet, but it already feels like summer. In fact, it feels pretty much like Jakarta (Indonesia) during the dry season. I can’t say that I like it. I hate hot weather. It turns me into Ms. Grumpypants. The heat made me so grumpy a couple of nights ago that Troy…… Continue reading Crazy Hot Spring
Book Meme
Neil passed me this book meme, and while I’m not really an avid book reader, I just thought I’d do it, just for the fun of it. So here goes. Books owned. I left behind hundreds of books in Indonesia. Here in Canada, assuming that all the books that *I* picked at book sales are…… Continue reading Book Meme
Rabbit Rabbit!
This is not a post about rabbit. It is said that if the first words you utter on the first day of the month are “rabbit rabbit”, you’ll have good luck all month long. As I said before, this is not a post about rabbit. I just wanted to share some silly trivias from our…… Continue reading Rabbit Rabbit!
Flickrific Wedding Photos
I’ve uploaded some unofficial photos from our wedding to Flickr and into a photoset. Troy’s dad took the photos. Well, the ones where he’s not inside the frame anyway. But they all came from his camera. The photos are not really the best, but some of them are pretty funny. If you have a Flickr…… Continue reading Flickrific Wedding Photos
Happy Happy Joy Joy!
I’d always wanted to elope, so elope I did. Troy and I tied the knot on Saturday in a short and sweet civil ceremony at the Waterloo Park. I hope my family won’t hate me for this (I called home this morning to let my family know about the news, but nobody answered, so I…… Continue reading Happy Happy Joy Joy!
A Stale Entry
We finally made it to Temiscaming, Quebec on Sunday where we had some authentic Quebecois poutine. Woohoo! I’ve been somewhere outside of Ontario! Of course I forgot to take a picture of the said poutine (I was too hungry) but trust me, it was yummy. It was supposed to take less than 2 hours to…… Continue reading A Stale Entry
Happy Friday the 13th!
I wouldn’t have noticed that today was Friday the 13th hadn’t I checked my site referrers. I saw a bunch of hits coming from people searching for triskaidekaphobia. Triskaidekaphobia is the fear of the number 13, while the fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskevidekatriaphobia (say it 10 times fast!). Good news for the…… Continue reading Happy Friday the 13th!
