Stay Classy, San Diego!
I just had an amazing all-girls trip to San Diego, where six of us rented a house a few blocks from the beach and just shopped, relaxed on the beach, boogie boarded in the surf, and hit the town at night. It was a short little 3-night getaway, but sooooo what I needed. Thanks for…

BarCamp Vancouver 2008
by Janis Behan – Geek in Training This past weekend, I attended my first ever BarCamp. It was held on beautiful Granville Island, with the venues scattered about the island. It was a gorgeous, sunny day. It’s too bad we were inside for most of it, geekin’ it up… jk. I wasn’t quite sure what…

Happy (Belated) Birthday Dad!
I recently came across this picture again in my e-mail, and I thought it was a pretty good picture of my Dad (not that there are ANY bad ones of him). This is right after he bought his first, current, and only Harley Davidson motorcycle, and I don’t think he was even able to ride…

My happy place..
Old School… June 28, 2008 And New School… August 26,2008 My family built this little floating paradise called “Kokanee Cedar” in 1987. It’s located on Powell Lake, in Powell River, British Columbia. I grew up here in the summer. It’s still the same place, but it looks so different to me; it has always been…

There may have been a lot of rumours about what happened up in Pemberton, and I’m here to set them straight – at least from my point of view. My friends and I arrived on Thursday night to the Pemberton Airport Parking Lot, which was mayhem. This was the one moment of my entire weekend…

Carly (my roommate) and I did a Costco…

Sweetheart Show
Tuesday Night I was fortunate enough to see a band called Sweetheart play at the Roxy. Tuesday nights at the Roxy are local bands sponsored by 99.3 the Fox. A band called February March opened for them, but I just caught the tail end of their set as I walked in the place, so I…

Marathon Update… We did it!
Well, for anyone who wants to know… I don’t know if anyone actually reads this thing, but on Sunday May 6th, I ran my first ever FULL marathon with my brother Jordan. We crossed the finish line at 3:53:49, at the exact same time in front of a huge, cheering crowd. I’ve written a detailed…
