may two four

flamedot — Wed, 23 May 2012 16:39:06 +0000

Friday I made it to the Richmond night market near Bridgeport station along with Phil, Marieke and Ian. The queue to get in was huge and a surprise $1 entry fee (didn’t make that obvious on your website, did ya?). It was a lot bigger than I thought it would be with lots of food [...]

biphasic sleep trial

flamedot — Wed, 09 May 2012 08:47:10 +0000

So yesterday I started a biphasic sleep trial. I figured out that my favourite time of the day was the hours between 2am and 4am. Everything is just quiet and I feel so relaxed. It’s probably why even after a week at work and 15 hours of commuting I get home on a Friday and [...]

potluck, prawns and volunteering

flamedot — Tue, 08 May 2012 09:12:16 +0000

Friday Last week we decided our semi-regular weekly meal would be a potluck dinner at Panu’s place. Marieke got her ear pierced and I paid for flights to Hawaii (YAY!) so we thought a budget option might be best. While drifting in and out of sleep on the Skytrain I was awoken by Ian calling [...]

drunken Skype dates are the way forward

flamedot — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 19:00:48 +0000

After my foray into drunk dialling me and Jay had a Skype date which consisted of chatting, drinking (Fernet and cola for me, tequila and Mello Yello for Jay – I didn’t realise they still made that stuff!), drawing faces on our fingers and generally making each other crack up for five and a half [...]

my April long weekend

flamedot — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 15:00:01 +0000

In keeping with my plan to take at least one long weekend a month to keep myself from going crazy from three hour daily commutes I took last Friday off. How did I spend it? I went to the gym, went for an informal interview for a volunteer gig which I’m really excited about then [...]

smartphone users, do me a favour

flamedot — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 06:07:21 +0000

This morning I snoozed my alarm until 6:15am, I had a shower, I got dressed and I left my house for work. This morning was like any other… except I nearly got hit by a car right outside my house. For the record, I was crossing at the lights with the little green man when [...]

in a Vancouver minute

flamedot — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 09:40:17 +0000

You always hear about the New York minute. Well, if today is anything to go by New York ain’t got nothin’ on a Vancouver minute! Mole motivator After meeting Allison on Thursday I had to stop by Cartems for a donut. When I woke up I figured I’d take it easy and wander down around [...]

out of the sleeping bag, under the duvet

flamedot — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 05:33:09 +0000

Since 30 January I have been sleeping under my sleeping bag. This has been partly by choice and partly out of laziness. When I moved out of the hostels and into my first flat in Vancouver it was only going to be for a month before the lease was up and the landlord bulldozed the [...]

Easter weekend 2012 – part II

flamedot — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 03:15:56 +0000

Now where did I leave off? Hmmm… Sunday I slept in and went to the gym and did not much else. It was great! Oh, while I was at the gym I looked up and saw that across the street there was a woman on the balcony setting up a… sweet Moses, she was barbequing! [...]

when to say when

flamedot — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 06:14:04 +0000

That’s actually the name of a Blitz Kids song – but that’s not what I meant by it. I started out the year with a quiet goal in the back of my mind to take one photo every day, print it out and stick it to my wall. I aimed to remedy the problem of [...]
