My favorite is Scott Pilgrim! No contest.

I guess I never did post about my birthday… uh… week! I spent so much time responding to Facebook wishes, posting to Twitter and whatnot that I kind of never really mentioned the awesomeness that was my birthday. I honestly enjoyed myself: JD spoiled me with lots of little experiences, culminating with a trip to… Continue reading Birthday musings…

I haven't posted in here for a while. The LJ outage contributed, but really I've just made myself very busy! I spent two weeks in Switzerland, and then had a very busy birthday week. In Geneva, I stayed at two different hotels: Mon-Repos which was a fancier hotel than the Bernina. Both were Swiss Quality… Continue reading Geneva (and other travel) musings

And really there's not all that much I can be doing about it — I'm behind where I'd like to be on the packing front (but my laundry's getting done!), and on so many other things, but whatever, right? At least I'm finally unpacked! And I WILL put in my expense claims to insurance (and… Continue reading As per usual, I'm behind…

As many of you well know, I tend to have a rather ridiculously busy travel schedule in the summer months. This summer is no exception of course and while travel does tend to get in the way of thesising and RA work and my part time job and, well all the trappings of home, I… Continue reading Whew, back from Virginia Beach and now to prep for Geneva…

So tomorrow night I depart once more for the United States. It'll be my 9th CKI LSSP and International Convention. I'm looking forward to it of course (as always), but perhaps not in the same way as I used to. Still it'll be fun and it'll be my first trip to the state of Virginia… Continue reading Getting ready for another CKI trip (and yet another Red Eye flight)

This summer, as much as I would adore this country to be Switzerland (since I am going there), and that country is pretty high on the list… I think ultimately it would be very neat to go visit Japan — particularly as it would be very expensive otherwise.

And that wraps up another year's trip to Victoria. Next year, I think I'd like to take GIS — I should have some data for that by then anyway — and go once more to DHSI. But in the meantime, I've arrived back at home, and I'm pretty happy for it. After I checked out… Continue reading So, I'm home!

Well, Thursday was the last FULL day of classes (yesterday classes ended in early afternoon), and so after class, I met up with Patrick for dinner at one of his favorite Vietnamese restaurants on Fort Street, called Saigon Night. He ordered all of his favorites, so I got to eat a bunch of really great… Continue reading How could a trip like this to Victoria not be fabulous?

There are so many tasks I could be doing now, but I choose this one: writing a bit of a summary of what I've been doing these last few days (other than using Foursquare and Twitter to the hilt that is). The last time I wrote was before meeting up with the bulk of people… Continue reading Victoria Adventures
