These are things about Canada (or more specifically, Waterloo) I didn’t know about until I got here (and some of them came as quite a shock, coming from a country like Indonesia): People say ‘hey, how are you doing?’ to each other, even strangers they pass on the street (like yours truly); People have their…… Continue reading It’s A Canadian Thing
Isn’t Life Exciting?
I’m in the middle of setting up a photolog to post pictures from and stories about my adventure in England right now, but knowing how short my attention span is, it may take a while before it’s up and running so standard disclaimer applies: don’t hold your breath. Anyway, ever since I got to Canada,…… Continue reading Isn’t Life Exciting?
Greetings from Canada!
Yeah, yeah, I know I said I’d post from England but I just didn’t have the time to do so. I arrived in Toronto, Ontario, Canada yesterday evening. The flight from London to Toronto took about 8 hours. It didn’t feel all that long. People drive on the wrong side of the road here, but…… Continue reading Greetings from Canada!

I’ll spare you the details but this much I can say: if you have a father who always tries to make your life easier, you should…… Continue reading Excuses, Excuses
A Birthday Post
Dear Self, Happy birthday! I know you’re cursing under your breath to hear that but the day is still young and there’s still a chance for it to turn up to be a happy one, no matter how small the chance is. Try to be optimistic for a change. Someone might give you a nice…… Continue reading A Birthday Post
Current Status: Alive
This post is for those of you who are wondering whether or not I am still alive. As you can see, as of this writing, I am still alive and typing, but not necessarily blogging. During my absence from your life, I have: been having coughing fits; locked myself in my room for two nights…… Continue reading Current Status: Alive
