So last night I went to a previously undiscovered delight known as Vancouver's Robson Square DanceSport Summertice series.  It happens for the summer every Friday night at Robson Square in the heart of downtown Vancouver and it's a must for any ballroom dancing fan!  From 8-8:30pm, there's a lesson for beginners held by professionals, then a 30- ( Read more... )

So finally had the chance to reply to the reviews of DRSD.  It was fantastic to hear what people thought of the chapter.

One person did comment on how non-linear the fic was---never thought of it that way and now I'm seriously considering on how to keep it non-linear.  Hah, we'll just see how it goes.

I did it!  I finally went indoor rockclimbing ( Read more... )

The new controller, i.e. my new boss, has just made an appointment for a sit-down with me this Thursday!  My paranoia is now reaching unscalable heights!  Yeah, it's because they're restructuring and he's new and he wants to get to know us.  BUT ( Read more... )

Today I was having one of my worst pity-parties:  I thought myself too vain, too self-absorbed.  I got depressed because I blew a way to make a good impression on an acquaintance and her good-looking friends.  I couldn't find it in myself to find a good book to read (and no, not even Harry Potter 7, a series which I haven't been as into as I used ( Read more... )

So yesterday, five of us went up the Grouse Grind, which is one of the popular tourist spots in Vancouver.  Basically, you spend one day of your vacation climbing up a series of steps (with a few tiny rock faces here and there for you to practice semi-rock-climbing or what I did, spidermanning it up ^_^) up a mountain.  Average time is about an ( Read more... )

It really is very interesting and amusing that, from what I've read in the first few chapters, a lot of the principles being implemented are actually quite Christian in nature, though the book is secular.  This is also a great book as it's really been eye-opening for me in terms of the self-destructive habits I didn't even know I had.  Considering ( Read more... )

One lesson I learned this week:  how a cold is different from an allergy.

And definitely, my dears, if you've got allergies, treat them right---otherwise, you'll end up like me with asthma.  -_-;;  The antihistamines, Praise God, is keeping it down though. 

Still not writing and I totally fumbled the ball with the whole bank rec thing---exasperating both my boss and my coworker (who used to do it).  I'm hoping that somehow I have retained enough to be able to actually do next month's ( Read more... )

I hate it.  I hate it.  I hate it.  I hate it.

I'm out in five out of six recs I need to do.
I'm already past my deadline.
I have about one day to redo the bank recs (five of them all involving four stores and about five different types of bank transactions, Visa, Amex, etc.).
IT'S THE WEEKEND AND IT'S ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT!  AND I'M BLANKING OUT ON ( Read more... )
