Because Eventually I Have To Die, Maybe
Off to NYC!
I’m leaving tonight to head off to New York City on the Greyhound with my friend Irma. We’ll be there for three nights, not including our overnight haul to the city on the bus.
I’ve scheduled up some posts to publish themselves, so there won’t be any lack of reading or pictures from the last few weeks of my traveling while I’m without internet. I won’t have access to a proper computer until July 19th when I land in Calgary once again. After New York I’ll be bound for Kingston, ON to see my grandparents.
In the coming days, there will be some posts about my trip up the CN tower, Niagara Falls, and my short road trip to Lake Huron. Be sure to check my twitter for quick snippets of my time in New York.
There are several things on my list for NYC, so be sure to check it out to see what I’ll be up to whilst in the Big Apple.
For now I’ll leave you with a video of tamarins at the Bio Dome in Montreal

Iceland

The weather has decided to get back to be snowy and cold, which is just what it does in April when you live in Calgary, Alberta. I’ve literally spent the entire day I should have been studying staring out the window thinking about Iceland, because you know…snow…outside…Ice…land. Yeah. August I will be heading the Iceland

A Beginner’s Guide to NYC

After a sleepless 12 hour over night Greyhound stint, stuck sitting next to the bathroom, Manhattan can seem a little daunting the first time you see it from a distance. And from there, it only gets worse. You climb off the bus into the August heat, trying to find the right Subway entrance. You have

Irma is possibly the best photo subject in the world. This is from our travels to NYC, the Central Library in particular. Upon finding she was actually a donor to the Library she got over excited and panned for the camera.

This week is all about things that aren’t about to make it onto my life list any time soon. I’m trying to be adventurous and open to new experiences, but some things are just beyond my personal threshold. Case in point: Pulpit Rock. The articles are still great and interesting, the subjects just happen to
My Top Ten

I think by now my list has every continent, and possibly even every country, on it. Of course, like with all things, I have a few favoured destinations, ones that distract me from everything. 1. Iceland Most people like warm destinations, but being Canadian, I prefer familiar temperatures and not having to buy new clothes
The Philosophy of “Just Do What You Want”

I don’t wax philosophical much on this blog, but in real life I’m the love child of Socrates and Plato (the gayest of all the philosophers: fact). And I’ve had a giant mental shift. The other night, laying in my super pink room, worried deeply about my future, Adam told me something that blew my
#591 – Tang

The conversation went like this Mom: Why did you get Tang when you don’t like orange flavour. Me: … Mom: I mean what inspired you? Me: I didn’t know what Tang was. Mom: Great job. And that was how crossing number #591 off my list went. When I added “Try Tang” to my list, I

Pulpit Rock Photo Montage image via Dilidou Heights are not my thing. Thus, Pulpit Rock in Norway scares the crap out of me. Just watching those people sit leisurely on the edge makes me sink to the carpet covered floors of my room in my “safety crouch” (reserved for swinging bridges, gondola lifts, driving on
