It's a rainy Saturday arvo (I'm really gonna have to stop starting my entries off that way cause I'm pretty sureit's always gonna be a rainy ---day arvo from here on out! haha) and I'm sitting in Blenz coffee shop down town on the corner of Richards & Hastings St. I just went to see the BC Ballet's performance of Nine Frank Sinatra Songs and it was amazing! I paid only $30 for my ticket (hurrah for student rates!) and even though I was right at the back of th...

It's a rainy old day on the hill…the first of many I'm sure!

The colour in the leaves is just starting to turn so all the trees are a beautiful mix of greens and golds and deep red. I have exams and assignments and readings and…it would be a total injustice to...

So I know I've been incredibly mean, because I emailed several of you about my exciting news then told you I'd put up the full story on my blog that night…and that was about 48 hours ago!
