Published on Vancouver Is Awesome
Wow, I have not written anything on here in a long time. Where did the last four years go? I hate to use the word “busy,” but it’s most likelyย because I have beenย far too busy writing for about three or fourย other websites. One of them is my day job, the others are my sideย jobs, and…

2012: Onward and Upward
Instead of jumping right into resolutions for 2012, I am first going to take a look back at 2011. Not in hindsight, mind you, but rather to reflect on the things I was proud of in 2011, and to set goals on what I can think about improving on for the year to come. Hat…

Urbandig’s Locavore Tour with Anthony Nicalo, CEO of Foodtree
On Friday, August 19 (on Day 3 of Grow Conference), I joined Anthony Nicalo, the CEO of Foodtree, on his “Locavore” tour for the Urbandig iPhone App, along with about 10 other hungry individuals, to experience some unpretentious, but gourmet food, in and around Gastown, Chinatown, and Railtown. I must disclose that I am a…

Public Speaking Isn’t So Bad After All
It’s been a very long time since I last had to do a presentation in front of people, either at school, or at work. I used to have to do them all the time, not that I enjoyed it one bit. I go to a lot of conferences, or “unconferences” in Vancouver, but I have…

Best of 2010
It’s a little late, but what the heck. I’ve never done a full year recap on my blog – only a summer recap in photos – probably because it’s very time-consuming. But this year was pretty special, with a lot of news-worthy items to share, so… let’s get started. January I did a contract gig…

Happy Mother’s Day, Momsie
In honour of Mother’s day, I wanted to share some of my favourite moments I’ve had with my Mom. This photo was taken in October of 2006, when my mother and I went on a backpacking trip through France and Italy. I still can’t believe she went backpacking, and neither can my Dad. Above, we…

My Olympics Project: The Olys
For the past few weeks, I have been doing some contract work at AdHack. It started out as an internship, and I was to write some case studies on the results of past clients who had used AdHack’s services, but it turned into something more. The Olys When the case studies were almost finished, James…

My 2010 Olympic Experience
I can’t believe it taken me so long to write about this. Mind you, every single 17 days of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics has been a whirlwind, and life seems comparably dull now that it has come and gone. It would have been much easier if I did a few posts throughout the Olympics,…

My Grandpa
The other night I went out with my Dad, brothers, Grandpa, uncles, and male cousins to a BC Lions game. Someone took this photo of my Grandpa Glenn and I, and after seeing it on my camera, he said, “Put it on the internet!” That just cracked me up. My Grandpa is the king of…

Summer 2009 in Pictures
I have been unbelievably lazy with blogging lately, and I’d like to blame it on being really busy doing fun stuff. Most of my weekends this summer have been spent out of town, and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. It’s so nice to get out of the city once in awhile, and…
