Attention all passengers, this is the last southbound train to Finch. The train will depart in two minutes. His last few words kept repeating inside my head. I met this guy at the arcade playing the same game a few months ago. We pretty much clicked, and we have been chatting and exchanging selfies quite […]
It’s crazy how things can change in a matter of one year. December 31, 2021 Last year, I was back in Winnipeg. It was a freezing cold New Year’s Eve but I was excited, because I’m going to be meeting up with someone I met on Tinder to grab some dinner and maybe hang out […]
For my last nine days in Winnipeg, I’ve done some sort of countdown on my social media feed. For those nine days I would post a photo I’ve previously taken; associated with a memory of the adventures I’ve had in Winnipeg during the last 12 years. While I chose to leave everything behind and start […]
Long time no see. So I did a thing. A big one! Just a few days ago, I moved from Winnipeg to Toronto! It’s been a huge endeavour, I’ve always wanted to move here and almost did a few times in the past, but it wasn’t completely feasible until recently. First task was to find […]
Thanks to the Watch4, it made me motivated again to do early morning weekend runs. Only managed a 4K run compared to last weekend’s 5K but that’s because I worked a day shift this weekend. I should probably sleep and wake up earlier to allocate more run time whenever I work a day weekend shift. […]
I did some more eating today – it’s the baptism party for my coworkers baby and they had a small gathering at a park in the city. Considering I just had some poutine and rollesque ice cream last night, I think I’ve had my fill of sugar for the next few days. My Watch4 somehow […]
New gadget – means it needs to be put to the test to see how it performs! This morning I went for my usual weekend runs but it was a better experience this time because I managed to fit my phone and my other stuff into the FlipBelt* so there’s nothing bouncing around in my […]
It’s a chilly, rainy day today – perfect day for pho! This was my first pho since November of last year, thanks to our never-ending cycle of Covid-19 lockdowns and restrictions. It’s still as good as I remember it! 🙂 So it finally happened – after years of contemplating whether to get a smartwatch or […]
Raise your hand if you haven’t played half of the games on your Steam game library? Guilty. And that’s about to get worse, because recently my roommate and a couple of friends at work convinced to pick up The Forest. I like horror movies so I think this is right up my alley! I’ve played […]
Nothing too crazy this week, just attending a couple days’ training for situational awareness as I work as a frontline outreach worker part-time. To be fair, we learned a lot over the past 2 days at it wasn’t just hours and hours of slides, but we did a lot of role-playing and scenarios. I prefer […]
I’m usually a low-key person so even if today’s my birthday I wasn’t planning anything crazy, but that’s about to change! First thing in the morning I got a few beeps from my Tamagotchi and I thought that it’s just hungry and needs some feeding, but this came up. I gave them breakfast and sent […]
Today I had a friend over and we bought of one those cute Japanese DIY snack kits that lets us make edible miniatures of actual food. There are many variations, and we got the Donuts one. It was pretty straightforward and despite my limited Japanese I was able to read and follow the instructions at […]
With our local Covid-19 cases on a steady downward trend (knock on wood), my city has finally began allowing home visits for fully-vaccinated people. For the first time in almost forever, I got together with a few good friends at work and hung out over some pizza and Jackbox Party games and it’s most social […]
Recently, I’ve been getting story shoutouts from many of my friends on Instagram, but for some reason I am unable to return the favour. You saw that right. I would like to give my friends a spotlight on my own stories, but I am however missing the Add Post to your Story option. My friends […]
Ain’t it funny that more often than not, spontaneous “plans” have more chances of happening than the carefully-planned ones? Just yesterday, one of my friends in our group chat came up with the idea of just chilling at a nearby coffee shop. I happened to be free tonight, so why not? We ended up spending […]
