Weblog Wannabe

Meep! Just wanted to let you know that since I’m busy working on the Book of Styles, updates to this weblog will be less frequent than usual. Troy has threatened not to renew the domain if I didn’t do…

For a couple of months now I’ve been involved in an online community of people with an interest in photography called UTATA. It is the coolest, most active, and friendliest online community I’ve ever known. I always admire the…

Last weekend, on Saturday, we decided to go for a walk through the Laurel Creek Conservation Area, which is only several blocks away from where we live, since it was a lovely day and all. And I needed to…

Did you see CSI: Miami last night? Ohmigod, it was the funniest ever! Well, the funniest episode featuring blogs I’ve ever seen anyway. They make blogs look like super hi-tech stuff with all the flashy doodads. And did you…

I wasn’t too convinced about today being the gloomiest day of the year, but then Firefox crashed and I lost today’s entry. It never happened before. It’s enough to convince me that today is indeed the gloomiest day of…

Okay, quick blogging for today since I need to go out and take photos while it’s kind of sunny outside. I think the greyness of winter might have given me the seasonal affective disorder since I keep feeling blah….

The sky always makes an excellent background, regardless of the weather, don’t you think? And you know what’s not excellent? It’s Flickr during the day. It’s always so unbearably slow to load! I wish I wasn’t such a Flickr-addict….

Another weekend has come and gone. As usual, I’m getting the post-weekend blahness. We spent the weekend just driving around to visit thrift stores and antique markets in search for even more vintage cameras, resulting in a Russian 35mm…

Hello! Did you miss me? Probably not. It’s only been two days since the last time I blogged something for you. I just had a couple of other things to pursue. But I’ll be back with some links to amuse…

Well, it’s just yet another grey day in Waterloo. I hope the sky will clear out tonight because I’m going to do some hardcore, night photography. Should be fun. And I’ll get to take advantage of my tripod. God…

No, my dream is not about winning the Bloggies™. It’s actually a dream I had the night before the New Year’s Eve. In my dream, Nikolai (the guy who started and organised the Bloggies™) finally got tired of organising the…

It’s yet another picture from last winter. Or rather, the end of last winter. We went to Long Point Provincial Park. The sky was clear and the lake was still frozen. Well, at least part of it. It made…

This year’s winter has been pretty mild. Coming from a country with a tropical climate, I should be happy about it. But I’m not. I like my winter harsh. Harsh enough to freeze the Great Lakes. Just like last…

I hope Troy won’t hate me too much for posting this picture. Hehe. I’d forgotten all about it until I rediscovered it last night as I was browsing through my Flickr photostream to find some photos to add into…

Welcome to all visitors coming from 9rules! Feel free to take a look around. But first of all, I need to clarify that I’m more like a myth than a legend. ;) For those of you who haven’t heard…

The theme for today’s links is randomness, because I don’t think I could link one item to another. Okay, so randomness is already everyday’s theme. Shush. According to the Journal of Infectious Diseases, after reaching Moscow in 1812, Napoleon’s…

It’s that time of the year again: the time to nominate your favourite weblogs for the Sixth Annual Weblog Awards a.k.a. the Bloggies™. In case Weblog Wannabe is one of your favourite weblogs and you’re considering it for a nomination,…

Soothsayers/naysayers — from business gurus to Bible decoders — have predicted all sorts of things for 2006, from the not-so-bright future of Google to a giant asteroid crash, in addition to 17 named tropical storms, nine hurricanes and five…
