Homecoming was excellent! I never would have imagined meeting the great people that I did, nor have so much fun seeing a person I knew! Such a great time, really. I'm definitely going to have to return to reunions in the future. The AIDS walk was rather great also. The only downside was some awfully… Continue reading A few quick words… (an update)

This year, for the first time I thought that I would participate in the AIDS Walk for Life! It is less than a week away (I know) but I still thought I'd cobble together any support that anyone felt willing to give. This is indeed an important cause: AIDS infections are the highest in Alberta… Continue reading Please support me in the AIDS Walk for Life!

So, yesterday's poetry reading went excellently! I was complimented by the host (and the host for the subsequent segment at Java Express, though I booked it across downtown in order to make it to Maria Chen's reading at Three Bananas Cafe instead), and it went rather well though the cafe was not as well staffed… Continue reading Because Beer just doesn't smell great when it's spilled on you during a poetry reading…

So there definitely seems to be a number of people interested. The attendance at the second pre-organizational meeting was rather good (and I think we answered a lot more questions). I think that this Tim Hortons is more appropriate for small gatherings than the other one. I do however REALLY hope that a number of… Continue reading Update on the Kiwanis club building…

Today I got my invitation to join the Golden Key International Honour Society in the mail. It didn't take much thought to figure out whether or not I wanted to pay the one time membership fee and join. After all, a good friend of mine is president of the local chapter, and I've many other… Continue reading It feels weird to be considered 'smart' again…

So the next Kiwanis pre-organization meeting is scheduled for Thursday night at 7pm at the Tim Hortons at 10665 Jasper Ave. I hope to see lots of enthusiastic people there (plus some who just want to find out more. *special note* Because of AWESOME sponsorship by local area Kiwanis clubs, the first year's membership for… Continue reading Quick Update… oh and I'm Reading at the Edmonton Poetry Festival…

Wow… The first week of September (aka the first week of school) has come to a relative close. And what a week it's been! Here are some highlights: Sept 1st – Went on an AWESOME shopping excursion with Jackie! I totally love my birthday gift: an awesome mod dress!! Great way to pass Labour Day!… Continue reading First week chaos…

So normally I don't spend my time typing about my comic reading addictions, and face it I have a few (it's a 50/50 split between web comics and those originally found in the dailies usually… plus I suppose a sprinkling of graphic novels to suit), but gosh Lynn Johnston's For Better Or For Worse has… Continue reading FBOFW… wow…

I won tix a while back for the Simple Plan concert on Friday Sept 5th (at 7pm) at Rexall Place. They are General Admission Floor Standing tickets, which arrived in the mail today. I was wondering if anyone would like to join me. It is far less fun attending a concert alone, and as I… Continue reading Would any one person like to join me at a Simple Plan concert?

Unlike last year, where I saw 12 Fringe plays (including 2 holdovers) this year I've only seen 2 Fringe plays (with no current plans for the holdovers but that may change). That said, I do have Fringe Theatre Adventures season tix so I'll have all this Fringe happiness spread out over the course of a… Continue reading Quick Fringe Recap
