In the beginning of this month, I started working on another site. I’m still learning the ins and outs of designing and managing websites but in some ways, it’s nice to have another site to work on since there are different challenges involved in a band website versus a personal website. Hopefully, I’ll get better […]
New Year; New Beginnings
It’s always difficult to sit down and have any ‘me’ time during the holiday season. There’s always a million things to do so the million things you were doing before suddenly get pushed to the back burner. I have to admit that I love the holiday season. Not for any religious reasons, of course but […]
‘Tis the season…to catch a cold.
It’s been awhile since I last posted something but between school, work, and life, it’s been tricky to sit down and write. Of course, I’m still not 100% sure how I’m going to use my site here which doesn’t help in coming up with posts! I have a few thoughts though that I hope to […]
Certified First Aider Here!
Yes everyone, I received my certificate in the mail today saying that I have completed the standard first aid/CPR/AED course at SIAST. I admit to having had some problems with the course administratively which I won’t discuss here but the course itself was quite easy and I’m glad I did it. That makes me wonder […]
Cultural Inbreeding in Saskatoon
This is a topic which I’ve been talking about a lot with people especially since I believe it to be an important one in this city but I’m also very aware that I need to tread lightly here since offending the wrong person/people could have very serious consequences for me. So please excuse the vagueness […]
Hi ho! Hi ho! It’s back to work I go!
Yup! You heard correctly, I’m finally working again! It’s been a long time – too long – since I’ve worked but it feels good. It’s not a particularly special or interesting job. In fact, I have some concerns about the environmental impact of such work. It’s only for a couple of months and minimum wage […]
More ‘hooking’
I certainly didn’t intend to use this blog as a show case of all my craft work but until I come up with more interesting things to talk about, please enjoy my handiwork! This is the first blanket I’ve ever made. When I first started learning to crochet, I couldn’t get the hang of circles […]
My new scarf!
I’m not too sure what got into me lately but I’m a major craft kick right now! For some time now, I’ve been wanting to learn to crochet and I tried teaching myself but would always get stuck somewhere along the line. Usually it was while trying to do rounds. But I stumbled across and […]
A tragedy made worse
I just want to post a quick note today to express my condolences to the people of Norway. I’m still in shock over the events that occurred yesterday; tragic doesn’t even begin to describe what happened. I would also like to apologize for the behavior of my country men/women. Many Canadians seem to be posting […]
The job search…..continues
Rough day today. This job search really is draining the life from me. Not only did I lose out on a position due to not being as experienced as others but then I trucked out to another place to apply for a position that’s still posted online only to find out that they had already […]
