Swiss Day BBQ

Kristin and I got invited over to Bernie and Martine’s place for a Swiss Day BBQ on Thursday! If there’s raclette, I’ll be one happy bunny.

This afternoon I had a bit of calm, so I tried to register for classes. I wasn’t feeling too optimistic about it, but I was surprised to find myself getting through on the third attempt of the day. I don’t have a great deal of choice for courses this term, unfortunately — either the times [...]

Quality Sleep

Handed in my Latin American Studies paper on the film “Strawberry and Chocolate”, so now I’ve just got two exams and that’s it until… September! A few weeks respite. I am currently running on one whole hour of sleep. Yep, that’s right, one single hour. But it was a quality hour.

All-Nighter

Self-fulfilling prophecy — I pulled an all-nighter. The kicker was not being able to get into SFU’s telephone registration this morning. After half an hour, I just gave up and tried to get some sleep.

My start date for class registration is tomorrow morning at 7:30am. Hopefully tonight won’t be an all-nighter.

I spent most of today at the office just trying to fix computer problems, and less than 2 hours to do my job. Result? A long, tough day with little to show for it. Even right now I’m on the phone with Kevin to reinstall software that I wasn’t able to set up properly before [...]

I remember only last week explaining to Ross what blogging was, and saying that most people who blog don’t have lives and if they did, they wouldn’t have the time to blog…. I guess I am now in that category of geek who substitutes a social [...]

Ah, familiar territory. Almost half past one in the morning and I’ve got as far as the Works Cited section and figuring out what I’m trying to write about. Maybe my creative juices just don’t flow under normal circumstances. Maybe I need to be half-delirious first.
I’ve read some articles on “Strawberry and Chocolate” and find [...]

Infodesk

Back from a morning shift at the HI-Vancouver Jericho Beach Hostel infodesk, which went later than usual. I think trying to organize things are easier when there are two people on, because I was answering questions and all the brochures were piled up on the desk, on top of the stuff I needed to answer [...]

The most recent album is Friday’s HI-Vancouver fam trip: Catherine’s Chinatown Tour + the CN IMAX film “Kilimanjaro: From the Roof of Africa”.
