Why Karma Is Such A Bitch →
I need a creative outlet outside of work. A project, a hobby, a something. Anyone want to collaborate? I’m a graphic designer who’s good at organizing and getting stuff done.

In 2007, the Tap Project was born in New York City based on a simple concept: restaurants would ask their patrons to donate $1 or more for the tap water they usually enjoy for free, and all funds raised would support UNICEF’s efforts to bring clean and accessible water to millions of children around the world.
Growing from just 300 New York City restaurants in 2007 to over 2,300 across the...
As you can see, my productivity has plummeted, therefore I’m going to put on my rubber boots (I’m allowed - I went to art school) and wade home to my apartment.
What's Up?
I’ll probably delete this, but you should tell me anyway.
New Music Sunday!
The Most Serene Republic Underwater Cinematographer Plants and Animals Parc Avenue PJ Harvey White Chalk
My roomate picked these three up in Montreal and I thought I’d give them a listen. I’ve seen Plants And Animals here in Halifax, and they’re great, but have no knowledge of the other two. I Love getting new music!
I love iced lattes because even though the caffeine is dehydrating, when you’re done you’re left with ice that melts into water. Problem solved?

go with the flow
i just got awaken by a friend who convinced to get up, change, and go out with him, so now i’m having a beer and waiting for him to pick me up. i’m trying to go with the flow more than i used to. i think this counts?
Really enjoying this fashion/beauty site right... →
My day-to-day clothing choices are very casual (i’m so greatful my office is a “wear what you want” kind of place), but when I have the time and energy to put into my looks, I like to spice things up a bit! This site has pages and pages of inspiration.
i have no concept of how long it takes to make meals.

FYI: frozen bananas un-thaw quite quickly.
Some girl in a flat above me is thumping around with high heels on. my roomate is away in Montreal, and my mom just emailed me.
I’ve just been overcome with a combo deal; lonliness with a side of home sickness.
I need a cuddle.
i know typewriters are cool and all, but we use computers now and they’re smarter than typewriters, so all you need is one space after a period - not two.

Anchors - She’s A Weight
it may have taken two hours to make, but our cordon bleu and sweet potatoe frites for dinner are going to be worth the wait.
dear neighbour upstairs who i have yet to meet,
i know it’s still winter and heat is expensive, but you do not need to slam your door shut in an effort to keep the heat in. a simple closure would be sufficient. if the door is not working properly, please speak with doug the landlord. he’ll fix it.
i apprciate any or all cooperation,

Love Yourself.
I will no longer partake when a bunch of women get together and start nit picking about their bodies, hair, or complexion. Some of the women I spend time with do this on a regular basis; comparing themselves to one another and it gets tiring. Fishing for compliments from people who are equally as self-concious is pretty pointless. I still enjoy being around these people, I just vow that I will no...
The Silver Lining
on today was finding out that, after 3 months of being on “Temporary Contract”, my company has decided to make me permanent! I’m so greatful to have a job, given they are sorta hard to come by these days. So, even though the day was stressful and I’m going to make some noodles and eat alone, I’m pretty happy to be where I’m at.

I got to spend the night with my cat. It’s been almost 2 weeks since I moved out and it had been that long since I’d seen her. I know it sounds lame, but it was a great night. Even though she’s a huge bitch she was pumped to see me and sat by me the whole night while I watched TV.

Most interestingly:
“Despite the disproportionate attention lavished on Shepard Fairey, a small, innovative handful of artists-designers is reimagining the possibilities of silk screen and a relatively small rectangular field. These artists show a fascination with the iconography of the past, including book jackets, vinyl records, nature icons and modernist design, in a...
Chronic Complimenters
Know any?
When people are always complimenting, sometimes it doesn’t come off as genuine. Although it could be. So hard to tell.
