  • Stuff; Personal, Professional & Financial

    From the “Personal” Dept. I basically took this weekend to tune out. I had a hard week at work last week and I was just too exhausted to do much of anything. Didn’t really want to see anyone or do anything. I get like that sometimes. Spent some time with Jen this afternoon. We don’t…

  • First Blog for July; Too Busy.

    From the “3 Week Recap” Dept. It’s kind of sad how inconsistent I’ve become with my weblog. First post in three weeks. Let’s run through some of the stuff I’ve been doing: Canada Day Weekend – (June 26th-July 1st) – Had an awesome time white water rafting with my friends. Pictures can be found on…

  • Ottawa Weekend; Good times ahead.

    From the “It should be hype” Dept. Going to Ottawa for the weekend. Right now, all I have planned is a one-day white-water rafting trip. Unfortunately we have a 12-person boat—my brother says that it’s not as exciting as the 6-person size. Still, I’m excited. Should be fun. Cheers, Tai

  • 5KM Run; Bloody Hot.

    From the “Damn, it is Hot Outside!” Dept. My brother and I went for a 5 km run this evening. Even though it was 10:30 at night, it was still 26°C. However, when you included humidity, it felt like 31°C (88°F for those of you state-side). It made for a really muggy run today. Overall,…

  • Insight; Passionless Tai.

    I was on the train and slightly motion sick as I attempted to read about the new Porsche 911 X50. So, I decide to write about an interesting conversation I had with Warren, a new project manager who joined OnX about 3 weeks ago. Warren and I travelled down to Auburn Hills to meet with…

  • New Site in Beta mode.

    From the “Worse than Microsoft” Dept. Hey Guys, I finally got around moving my stuff off my iBook and onto my server (shameless plug—hosted by Blacksun.ca). You can take a look at my site while I build it. So far, my CSS stylesheet is 100% valid. My XHTML Strict webpage needs a lot of work…

  • Nitrogen rocks; keeping chips crispy

    From the “This Just In” Dept I was in the mood for salt, so I went to the vending machine to buy a bag of corn chips (a childhood favourite of mine) for 75-cents. I opened the bag, smelled an acrid odour and took a bite of what turned out to be a stale, rancid…

  • Weekend Review; Too much BBQ goodness for one weekend.

    From the “Weekend Review” Dept. I went to two BBQs this weekend. Both birthdays. One for my friend Thip and another for my friend Ruth. Thip is leaving for a 2 year stint to teach English in Japan. Ruth is currently pursuing her masters degree at UofW. Too much food. I think I ate a…

  • Conversation with Jen; should I be nervous?

    From the “the Bells are ringing” Dept. Here is a conversation I had recently with Jen. I find it amusing. Cheers, Tai.

  • Old Friends; good times.

    From the “Back in the day when I was young…” Dept “…I’m not a kid anymore, but some days I wish was a kid again.” So my friend Janice came back to TO after spending most of the last 8 years in Hong Kong. It’s interesting, how old friends who haven’t seen each other in…
