About Me

"In such a world of interconnectedness, it is understood that every action has consequences, and when we were part of that world, we had a responsibility to act properly to keep the world in order... Each of us is quite literally air, water, soil and sunlight... as social and spiritual creatures, we need love and spirit if we are to lead rich and full lives. These are the fundamental building blocks of sustainable lives and societies..." - David Suzuki

parks and peddling and picnics... oh my!

I cannot wait for spring - technically, it might be here right now, but it's not too consistent.  Luckily, the past couple weekends have had amazing weather allowing me to incorporate the Th...

a rant about raisins

I found myself raising my voice slightly at work today, and over what you ask?  Something as stupid and as inconsequential as raisins in a chocolate bar.  I cannot help but get so irritated ...

Ya ya, I know everyone is super busy most of the time, but it's true - I've been far too busy at work and life to even right my crappy blog.  So here goes... The most prevalant reason for the abs...

i believe in the raps!

I used to watch weekend NBA games religiously with my mum back in the day - I'm talkin' when jordan and pippen ruled the world.  This was of course pre-Raptors, so I didn't feel the hom...

So, I went to Montreal this weekend with the bf - had a wonderful time, love the alcohol abundance in the Depanneurs (i.e. convenience stores).  I have to say, however, I have NEVER been colder i...

brought to you by: irritation

I know my views on the world can often be idealistic or uncapitalistic, but I think that's a good thing.  I feel I must warn you that a rant is about to ensue - so hold on tight... Last evening I...

are u related?: blah blah blah twins

Here is a simple heads up for anyone (male or female) about twins - I prefer to keep this one short and sweet simply because my life has been about these questions: 1) Are you related? Answer: I am al...

being social online

Everyone feels pressured once and a while (or every day) but it seems that social pressure is the most consistent and acceptable type.  Now with Social Media becoming massive online, the pressure...
