I remember...
the days...
I used - to love - group buying.
There was a time when group buying was new! Fresh! Revolutionary to the way the consumer spent their hard earned dollars! For me, I think it was last summer? Now, I get 10 emails a day and even stuff by snail mail telling me about new group buying services that're available. When did it ( Read more... )

So I was in the washroom, and 2 stalls over from me, a dude was having a phone conversation! A full-on energetic phone conversation with whoever the poor soul was on the other end! Talk about your multi-tasking! But seriously guys, there's a time and a place for everything, and rarely do these things coincide with the times where you choose to take ( Read more... )

So being a Canadian, usually I don't get too involved in things like the American presidential election race. But, as many can attest to, the '08 Obama-McCain race struck a chord with people from all over the world. Was it a Black thing? Maybe. Was it a stand against the remnants of George W. Bush and the 8 years of insanity that he'd heralded? ( Read more... )

In the midst of a bit of chaos right now - the day was more or less dedicated to preparing our wedding invitations to send out sooner than later. We had several friends over, and over the course of 7 hours (including breaks), they're done for the most part. Address labels still need to be completed, and other little things for the wedding need to ( Read more... )

Tonight ran away from me, having a great chat about the future with someone I respect. It was time very well spent.  Lots of thoughts are running through my head for potential paths to walk and things to do in the time coming; but all shall be revealed at the right time!

In the meantime, it's been one hell of a week. So much to do at work, so many ( Read more... )

Hey guys, hope you're all enjoying your Thursday morning so far! Here in Toronto, we're enjoying a solid 4-5 days of rain, since the weather systems seem to have gotten our geo-location confused, believing that we're London, England. I know that we still show respect to the monarchy, but come on.

But weather isn't what I wanted to write about - ( Read more... )

The other week I got an ad for The Art of Marketing in my email and it seemed pretty interesting! Considering that I'd eventually like to start up a business and the fact that I'm constantly working on projects, trying to promote them to the world, I thought that this would be a very awesome opportunity for me to pursue!

Except that it was $400 ( Read more... )

I won't even lie - I started today in a foul mood. Lots of things were bothering me, and I thought that the day was just going to go downhill from there. I spent the morning working on a ranty, angsty post, knowing that it wouldn't do anyone any good by posting it.

Enter Zach Bussey.

I randomly complained about how I was feeling to him, for the sake ( Read more... )

As a favour to my friend Li, I'm putting together a blog post on a skill that's ESSENTIAL when you're meeting someone for the first time - the handshake. It fits in well with the Life Skills series I've been working on, and also with what I think I'll call Manners Mondays after a suggestion from a friend!

It's no secret that one's first impression ( Read more... )

Sunday means different things to different people. To some people it's a day of rest. To others, worship and praise. And to others yet, it's just another day. I like Sundays to be a bit special, myself, so I'm thinking that maybe I'll start taking some of the things that inspire myself and others and post them on Sundays to see if they just might ( Read more... )
