First Update of the Year

2009-01-13T06:30:00.001-08:00

I should probably update this thing.... What better pictures to post than pictures of Zelda!! She sure is growing.

Current Age: 8 Months

New Trick: Keep treats on legs until further notice.

Puppy Dog Eyes.

Christmas Soon

2008-12-15T20:54:00.000-08:00

I like wrapping. Sometimes minus the 'w.'

Snacks!

2008-12-11T18:11:00.000-08:00

I wish I was my brother or one of his friends, because then I would get one of these snacks :(

one week to go . . .

2008-10-26T17:05:00.000-07:00

. . . before this sleepy pup gets spayed.

Autumn Beagle

2008-10-21T13:32:00.001-07:00

Zelda and I were playing in the backyard. She's goofy. In other news, it snowed in many areas of Ontario today :(

Happy Thanksgiving! Possible Part One

2008-10-12T12:02:00.000-07:00

Tomorrow is thanksgiving, but for now, I have some new pictures of Zelda.

Happy October!!

2008-10-02T18:01:00.000-07:00

The season is changing. The colours are all changing. Things are changing.

More Zelda

2008-09-16T05:34:00.000-07:00

Lately, the only time I take pictures is when I'm playing with Zelda. Here are some newer shots of her.

She bites.

babbbbyyyy

2008-08-31T19:52:00.000-07:00

this is my sleepy baby puppy. she likes to sleep, fart, dig, chew things, collect shoes, and wait for bacon.

Montreal

2008-07-28T07:45:00.000-07:00

Went to Montreal last week with Myke. Here are some of the pics I took.

Our apartment dining room/kitchen area. SO SWEET.

the bathroom

Penguins from the Bidome. SO CUTE.

MORE penguins. This shot isn't so great because the glass was dewy, but I still like it because they look like they are posing.

Parc LaFontaine.

ZELDA

2008-07-15T04:42:00.000-07:00

So Myke bought a puppy. She's an 8 week old Beagle and her name is Zelda. She is pretty much mine as well. She's a biter, but she is so awesome and so damn cute... and she smells like coconuts!!!

Puppies galore!

2008-07-03T05:48:00.000-07:00

The beginning of the week was filled with visiting new puppies... something I'm always up for.

I want a puppy now.

This is Penny....

This is Mei Mei.....

And of course, my favourite dog.... THE CAT!!! I love this shot because it makes her look like a brand new kitten.

More cottage

2008-06-26T18:47:00.001-07:00

I like editing black and white pictures in this fashion, so here are more from the cottage weekend.

Can't wait to go back.

2008-06-23T20:09:00.000-07:00

cottage weekend was SO MUCH FUN. Here are some of my favourite shots.

dock and lake

and of course, a shot of Mykall <3

Rivergrove Pt.One

2008-05-29T19:14:00.000-07:00

About 5 years ago I got my first digital camera. On a walk one day in Streetsville I had snapped some shots of the Rivergrove Forest. This picture below came from that day and is of particular interest to me. Notice the black shadow near the bottom? Looks like a little man to me!! I swear this picture has not been tampered with in any way. Five years ago I didn't have a proper computer... just a really old machine that my parents like to call "the chevy," so I would not have been able to change it around.

What makes it more interesting is what I found on this website. Shadowlands Haunted Places Index Canada

"Ontario - Mississauga - Rivergrove Forest - Behind the newly built community center, lies the Rivergrove forest. A place where numerous people, have either felt like they were being watched, or have witnessed dark images much like the form of a body, but with no features present on the dark figure. From all accounts, the figure is localized around the waters edge along the main path."

It pretty much defines what you see in that picture.

ANYWAYS
I was back there a few days ago and snapped this shot.... no little black man :(

Mud Pie

2008-05-20T18:26:00.000-07:00

SO GOOD.

super flowers

2008-05-19T08:17:00.000-07:00

I bought this bouquet for mother's day over a week ago and they are still going strong. Flower Power!!

Cleese

2008-05-13T06:33:00.000-07:00

I'm not too sure which shot I like the best. I like them both a lot in their own way. Enjoy!!

purple

2008-05-12T09:52:00.000-07:00

Here's some flowers from Myke's backyard. I love the colour :)

sockies

2008-05-11T15:47:00.000-07:00

Here is a shot of Myke's work socks. Exciting eh!

Pawry.

2008-05-07T18:35:00.001-07:00

This is my mousedogbird.

weeds.

2008-05-05T12:52:00.000-07:00

are pretty sometimes.

New Car

2008-04-27T19:03:00.001-07:00

So I had gotten a new car a few weeks back and here it is.

It's a Suzuki SX4. Funny story attached to how I ended up with it. Maybe one day I will go into it. Moral of the story: Car companies should not hire fresh off the boat.

Anyways, I like it. I don't see many of these on the road... definately not a Toyota Matrix, that's for sure.

more spring

2008-04-17T15:58:00.000-07:00

oh man, today felt like summer. I was melting!

Anyways, Ally and I went to Streetsville to enjoy the weather. The last time I was in this specific area, Myke and I were taking pictures and there was snow and ice all over the place.

There was geese galore today! and they didn't mind all that much if you went near them, it was nice.

The habs game is just about to start and they showed a horse on TV with a habs flag sticking out of his head! i want a horse with a flag!

Sleepy babies.

2008-04-14T08:40:00.000-07:00

My favourite thing to do with a camera is to follow around other people's pets and take pictures of them. Naps are nice.

HOLLA AT YA'LL!

2008-04-13T14:48:00.000-07:00

Well, since I haven't posted in over a month, I thought it was about time to post something. I blame it on the extreme amounts of snow we have had this winter. There is only so many pictures I can take indoors of my brother playing guitar hero and of Myke's cat (although, I have new ones of the cat, actually).

This is from two weeks ago. It was pretty nice out that day so we went for a walk. I met a lot of dogs (shout out to Daisy) and saw a goose with a broken leg (thoughts are with you, Earl).

These are from this weekend. We went to aldershot?! Some mini waterfall thingy. There was too much muck all over the place so I started to whine and we left.

EGGIES

2008-02-25T12:51:00.000-08:00

I was walking through the parking lot to get to Shopper's Drug Mart specifically to buy a bag of these today. It felt like I was never going to get there. I absolutely LOVE the mini egg season of the year... but to be more specific, these here are the "eggies" variety made by Hersheys. Pretty much the exact same thing but a dollar cheaper. HERSHEYS, SEND ME FREE EGGIES I LOVE EGGIES SO MUCH EVERYONE GO BUY EGGIES.

Stevizzle

2008-02-20T20:22:00.000-08:00

I'm pretty sure that I have posted a picture of Stevie at least once on here, but I felt the need to update this blog, so this is the picture I am choosing.

When I woke up this morning I realized someone had left the TV on in our bar (where we keep Stevie's cage) and he was watching the Rachel Ray show. Then I gave him some hickory sticks. Five years and still going strong!

fisheye

2008-02-18T11:02:00.000-08:00

Myke bought THE fisheye lens this weekend. I am sooo jealous of him because it takes the coolest pictures!! BUT it works on my camera as well, so I'm totally borrowing it from time to time.
I technically didn't take this picture, but it is with my camera.... just not my lens. So basically it can be 1/3 mine.

Today was Family Day and we all went for breakfast at Smitty's and then went bowling. I am horrible at bowling but I was satisfied with the fact that the ball was hot pink. I want to go again!!!

Anyways, the last picture I posted was on City TV News on Friday. I am just awesome like that. I hope my neighbours weren't watching. HAHA

snowed in!

2008-02-13T09:35:00.001-08:00

Good thing I was able to hand in my assignment early last night or else I would have had a super tough time getting anywhere. We have way too much snow now.

I would assume that this dude had a hard time getting anywhere. Now that I think of it, I'm pretty sure this car (belonging to the next door neighbour) hasn't moved in many many months.

Jeeves

2008-02-11T11:59:00.000-08:00

Here's another shot from Saturday. If this were my place of residence then I would also own 3 ponies, a swimming pool, and maybe the Internet.

I watched Transamerica today. There was some chick playing a dude who turned into a chick. It was heartwarming.

Waldo

2008-02-10T07:47:00.000-08:00

So yesterday it was raining here and there and everywhere. Managed to go out for a matter of 10 minutes but I THINK I got some neat stuff.

Try to find waldo in this picture!!!

Shoot

2008-02-08T14:18:00.000-08:00

Here's another picture of my school. Good thing this isn't Sheridan, or else everyone would have been in lock down for a good part of the afternoon. NO GOOD.

Crusty

2008-02-06T18:23:00.000-08:00

There used to be a brown dude in this photo and I tried to edit him out, but it looks like crap, and I gave up, so here it is anyways!! I tried so very hard to take it when no brown guys were walking by, but that was next to impossible... THATS ME!

Snow Sucks

2008-02-06T08:01:00.001-08:00

Here's a path somewhere at my school. My school is awfully boxy!
Snow sucks and it always ruins my plans. I had to go into school today and the damn snow soaked through my boots. Should probably get new boots then.

Cloverfield

2008-02-04T15:30:00.001-08:00

Cloverfield wasn't the best movie on the planet. I only really liked the scene where the girl started bleeding from her eyes and the other girl blew up at the end. Other than that, Cloverfield hype is kind of crap.In other news, the Maple Leafs suck large donkey balls, and the Habs are obviously way better.

elbow punching

2008-01-28T20:53:00.000-08:00

Don't piss me off or else you'll get an elbow in the mother effin eye.

2008-01-20T20:17:00.000-08:00

This is where shit goes down every Friday at 1pm est on PunkRadioCast.

pizza

2008-01-11T13:40:00.000-08:00

i need to take more pictures.

winter white

2008-01-06T21:03:00.000-08:00

The winter weather is nice, but it is way too white sometimes, just like I am. I seriously cannot wait till spring/summer rolls around... basically for when the grass is really green and the trees are all pretty.

I quite enjoy this picture of Myke.... just as much... wait... more than I like summertime weather.

tam

2008-01-05T10:35:00.000-08:00

This is Myke shielding himself with a lens cap. My feet became very cold on this journey, but we saw many dogs and that is fine by me.

stroll

2008-01-04T13:31:00.000-08:00

I went for a stroll the other night and I found this really cute pony outside of the shop where I always purchase my shoe shine polish, so I went up on a hill to capture the moment.

CAT

2008-01-01T19:49:00.000-08:00

The only cat I am allowed to play with on a regular (twice a week) basis.

swingy

2007-12-31T11:04:00.000-08:00

i love playing on the swings, but i almost fell off of these ones.

streetsvizzle

2007-12-30T18:34:00.000-08:00

Well, I am downloading the trial version of photoshop off of the adobe site. ... 43% done!! and over an hour to go. UGH.

I hope this picture doesn't look like horse crap on your computer screens.

This is Streetsville. Myke and I walked around the park yesterday. I took a picture of poop.
Speaking of Myke, check out his blog.

christmas

2007-12-27T20:36:00.000-08:00

This is a part of what the table at one of my Christmas dinners looks like. There is still some more table behind me in this picture. ANYWAYS, I don't have photoshop anymore on my laptop, so I did what I could with this picture in Microsoft Picture It. Sucky.

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!! I know I did for once!!

Farts Carl

2007-12-19T19:42:00.000-08:00

This is Farts Carl. He is my new bear. Myke gave him to me.

tree!

2007-12-11T12:32:00.000-08:00

This is our Christmas tree. No presents (ponies) yet, just Jesus in a manger. SO PRETTY!

kittykittykittykitty!!!

2007-12-04T20:39:00.000-08:00

Is it weird that I love a cat so much that isn't even mine? Oh well. This cat enjoys being loud, loves to be poked, and always wants to be picked up by me.

I have been so damn busy with school and work that I haven't had any time to play with my new camera!! Thursday = my last day and then I have a whole month off of school, so maybe when/if the weather is nice, I will go outside and play around in nature. Even if it snows again, maybe I will find a pair of snow pants and I will build a snow fort with tunnels and ice slides and benches and stuff!!!

heeeeeeeiiiiiyeaaaaaaammmmmayyyyaaaaaaaaahooooooooyyyyaaammmoyyyaa

fake.frower.

2007-12-02T17:25:00.000-08:00

As I take a multiple hour break from writing a ten page paper due in a few days (I haven't actually started writing it yet) I bring to you a picture of a fake frower. It is red and dewy, and it comes to you from my home.

Today was pretty damn craptacular due to the shitastic amount of snow outside. I worked my basic Sunday shift, did some Christmas shopping for a loved one, and then I came home and ate some meatballs.

Girls do not fart.

Burlington

2007-11-26T08:54:00.000-08:00

So, I totally got a new camera, the Nikon D40.... I have been eyeing it for a while now, but I think that once I saw Myke get his new camera, I got really jealous and it was enough for me to get one of my very own. I took that last night after our date at Wendy's. I love pretty colours!! AND I love this camera, it is way too much fun.

paroxysm

2007-10-05T19:34:00.000-07:00

So, today's word of the day is...

paroxysm

which is very difficult for me to say, so therefore, i do not like this one, but it means:

1.	any sudden, violent outburst; a fit of violent action or emotion: paroxysms of rage.

2.	Pathology. a severe attack or a sudden increase in intensity of a disease, usually recurring periodically.

So really, I am pretty sure that I have a hiccup disease, if there is such a thing. It intensified last night when I almost vomited after each one and started sweating like a fat man. But really, vomiting brings back good memories, really.

And here is a tree I found in Oakville. I tried to climb it, but really, I do not know how to climb a tree.

bouleversement

2007-10-01T20:43:00.000-07:00

but really, I hate choosing titles for blog entries. SERIOUSLY. So I went with the word of the day off of the dictionary.com site.

bouleversement \bool-vair-suh-MAWN\, noun:
Complete overthrow; a reversal; a turning upside down.

A violent uproar; a tumult.
A reversal.

I guess I can work with this one though. If I ever find the people that hurt ponies in order to take their hair and turn it into zebra printed shoes, then I will overthrow their factories and cause a violent uproar. The whole place would be turned upside down.

but really, here is a picture of nature.
don't even ask what the fuck happened to the borders.

cards

2007-09-27T07:38:00.001-07:00

I work at Hallmark and I fuckin hate it. Someone hire me somewhere that will pay me more than minimum wage and won't lie to me when they say "we can't afford to give raises." Fuckin shit.

Fam

2007-08-16T14:18:00.000-07:00

Picture of my Nonna and Nonno. Old school. Nice slicked back hair, old guy.

Now THAT'S a beard.

woofwoofwoof

2007-08-01T17:05:00.000-07:00

So, here is the bus stop by my house where I used to take the bus.
Anyways, this week has been not too shabby. I saw a wizard on Tuesday and I get to gamble with my mom tomorrow. Sweet? yeah.

Panama!!! Panama..aaah aaahhhh

2007-07-30T08:17:00.000-07:00

I saw that new Adam Sandler movie and there is totally a scene where a Journey song plays. Here is a fence.

lellow

2007-07-28T20:48:00.001-07:00

I wore a yellow shirt when I took that.

Evil

2007-07-22T21:11:00.001-07:00

Speaking of the photography class that I took last year, one of our assignments was to use our digi cams to take a snapshot of someone. This is what I came up with. Ally and a Knife. Although, I'm sure I called it something different when I handed it in.
Also, I'm pretty sure my prof for that class was a huge lesbian.

anus's

2007-07-15T07:46:00.001-07:00

Since I don't have much time to take anything new, I'm just looking through some older stuff that I have taken/liked. I don't think that "anus's" will ever get old. I'm sure the plural term for "anus" is not spelled that way, but that's what you get across the street from Sheridan College.

cct357

2007-07-12T20:12:00.000-07:00

So, I took a photography course last year for school and it wasn't too bad when you push aside the fact that my prof was a dykey bitch. I think this was the first picture I took in that class that I was a tad bit satisfied with. So lonely and emo.

Stephen The Great

2007-07-05T20:10:00.000-07:00

This is my budgie, Stevie. Lately he has been pretty sick, but as of right now, he's totally fine and just ate a potato chip. I did not edit this picture in any way. I have no idea how my camera did this, but I actually really like it the way it is.

as they say, things are greener on the other side. we have the best front lawn in all of Mississauga.

I also learned in my Holocaust history class that Prime Minister Mackenzie King refused Jewish refugees attempting to leave Nazi Germany entry into Canada. Also, he had met with Hitler and declared him a reasonable and caring man and that he thought of him as one of the saviours of the world. douche.

Summertime.

2007-06-30T17:50:00.000-07:00

The summertime has begun and so has this blog. COTTAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
