... WTF?

2009-11-24T23:43:20Z

My mom gave me this box of instant noodles. I dunno if I should be eating them.

Tealight holder

Amusing sign at the mall

I couldn't resist taking a photo

Merry Christmas

2008-12-25T04:10:33Z

While I was working today I saw this long icicle hanging from my house. You have to look for it though, the tree trunk is kinda hiding it.

Snow angel

2008-12-18T00:58:59Z

We had a pretty good snowfall today so after work I made a snow angel

Richmond Olympic Oval

2008-12-14T06:19:48Z

This was the 2nd day that the Olympic speed skating oval was open to the public. The public skates were happening all day. It was quite a nice exercise facility.

More photos under the cut

This is a view of the other side of the buliding. Interesting support structures and it opens right onto ice level.

Since this is where the 2010 Olympic speed skating events are being held, they brought out the mascots to skate alongside the public. First up was Quatchi.

Next was Sumi

Finally Miga

At the end of the day the first snowfall was coming down as I went home

Xmas tree

2008-12-08T04:29:07Z

We don't have anything to top the tree, so we put a lil Santa ornament on top.

Egg wash?

2008-12-07T05:50:02Z

I was passing by the pies at the grocery store when I noticed the label.

I haven't heard of this allergy warning before.

Birthday wishes

2008-11-26T17:26:28Z

It's my sister's birthday so I scanned this image off my calendar and cropped it. I've got 6 siblings and the birthday girl is 2nd youngest.

Flies be gone.

2008-11-12T21:50:38Z

We're having a slight fly problem in our office, so the building manager brought along this lil guy. It's a Venus Fly Trap, lol. I think we might need a few more since I've read that it catches maybe one a week and I know there's usually one or two on the ceiling of my office alone.

Tea ring

2008-11-07T18:04:54Z

I was making tea and placed it on top of my makeshift coaster. When I poured the tea into my mug, I noticed I accidentally gave the coaster a black eye. ^_^;

I find Windows insulting

2008-10-29T00:47:24Z

That hard drive was not filled with pr0n!

remote, planes

2008-10-26T01:51:55Z

I upgraded my internet and digital tv services and ran into a bunch of problems. Today, I found a giant remote control. If it could only solve my problems.

In the same mall, I found a child's ride. What happened to the ones that rock back and forth? This one uses video!

Since I couldn't fit inside, I went out to the airport to watch the planes come in for their landing.

Walking along the trail by the airport.

2008-10-16T01:42:08Z

My sister and I were going out for a walk this weekend and I took a few shots with my camera.

fun fun fun

After several tries I finally got a beta code to test LittleBigPlanet. It's a game where you can play online with friends and create your own levels. It looks really neat.

Here's my setup with the download going on in the background. ^^v

Sherpa gear

2008-09-30T16:17:13Z

My sister had been teasing my friend and calling him a sherpa, saying he would carry all of her shopping bags. Eventually that's what she nicknamed him, so as we were shopping today without him, we came across a lot of sherpa clothing that we thought he'd need. (except they're kids sizes, lol)

First is the sherpa jacket:

Next is the sherpa hat:

Lol, he had a good laugh :D

Dictionaries

2008-09-05T18:23:15Z

I was in the mall at the bookstore looking around when I saw the table for back-to-school merchandise. This one caught my eye.

"Current English"? As opposed to?

Can you see?

2008-09-02T14:50:35Z

I was at Home Depot this weekend and I saw this van with piles and piles of paper stacked on and around the dashboard.

zOMG that's a computer?!

2008-08-27T18:36:30Z

My boss got a new computer... that little white box by the phone. X_X

Sketch #7

I hate drawing trees. This is based on a photo I took at Hokkaido University.

Edge Card

2008-08-06T15:23:13Z

Apparently the GameStop/EB Games Edge Cards are different in Canada and the US. On my trip to Oregon, I wanted to renew my card because it had expired, but they couldn't do it. The cashier thought my card with pics of DSs was 'neat'. I thought it was a little boring until I saw the card he was going to give me. I think it just said "Game Stop" on it. ^_^; Anyway I finally got around to renewing my card and this is the one I picked out.

Crater Lake

2008-07-29T04:31:30Z

While in Oregon on vacation, my friend and I went to Crater Lake.

Sketch #6

2008-07-29T04:29:43Z

My friend thinks this is Anderson Butte. It's the view outside of her house.

Sketch #5

2008-07-14T04:08:11Z

I've been busy with repairing things around the house. Here's something I just finished, the Franciscan Monastery Library.
