So I tend to procrastinate and the best way I procrastinate is playing worst-case scenarios and making internal lists in my head instead of doing what I should do and making lists on paper or on my to-do list via my laptop. I leave for the guide dog school on the 22nd of this month! I can't believe that it's coming up so fast and all I can think ( Read more... )

*sigh* gmail is down and there is no real answer to why beside the cryptic error message I've been getting for the last few hours. Oh well that's okay, not like I wanted to check my mail anyways *sniffs and crosses arms on chest ( Read more... )

I'm home! I'm back from our drive down to CA and since the guide dog school is in San Rafael I'll be going back next month. I'll be downloading pictures to flickr once I get some time to play with them. It was so nice to bask in the sun and where we were staying was a short walk to the beach. The drive down was full of heavy downpours of rain ( Read more... )

So we are getting ready for a road trip to California, Pacifica to be exact. If you asked the place with the Taco Bell on the beach yep that's the one. I'm so excited because we are going to head down to Monterey Bay to see the huge aquarium there and I plan to take loads of pictures!! Giant Jellyfish Here I Come!!! Might have time to go wonder ( Read more... )

I've been away from LJ a lot lately. Strange thing, I just treated myself to a paid account recently. Life's been busy, I'm waiting to hear back from the guide dog school in regards to my application, which I finally finished all that I had to do except my passport. I need to stop procrastinating on that and go wait in line at the passport ( Read more... )

Well all those warm thoughts worked because the snow is gone and the sun was out today. It's still cold, but it was so nice to be able to see the mountains again so clearly. I grew up in Vancouver, where daily I could see the mountains unless it was really, really cloudy and moving here to the burbs has been a bit difficult to adjust to at times ( Read more... )

Brr it's cold outside today and snowing. At this time of year I'm able to busking in the warm spring-like weather we usually get here earlier than most places. I spend this time making sure I describe the beautiful weather and the signs of spring coming to my friends and family in Ontario especially to all those ex-BCer's who abandoned me to that ( Read more... )

Today has been one of those days that everything seems to go slightly wrong but somehow works out alright. Well I just experienced one of them. First off I want to wave at tsuki_bug and welcome her to my journal, sorry no fanfic here, but I do on occasion read some. She has been the wonderful person who I have been spoiling for secretpal_lj3. It's been so hard ( Read more... )

Thank you so much elfies. I got your package on Friday but I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to post that I received it till now.. I spent my weekend getting my partner ready for his two week business trip to India and China. Now that he is gone and my daughter is getting ready for bed I have time to share with everyone the great swap box that ( Read more... )

Darn it I'm late GUNG HAY FAT CHOY!!! Happy Chinese New Year to you all, it's the year of the pig. My two of my brothers are pigs and my dad was a pig, so here's to a good new year. Due to the fact that I'm a 4th gen CBC (Canadian Born Chinese) on my mom's side we don't really celebrate a traditional new years. I am lucky that we do a lot of ( Read more... )
