I have seen snow angels on the web and TV for many times now. First time seeing one in real life… I didn’t make this, but was glad I got a picture of this. It was fun!

It doesn’t snow here a lot. But, according to the weather forecast, it will be snowing for the next couple of days..

Bright Nights is really worth a visit, very very nice Christmas Lights – Happy Holidays everyone!

Just did a quick 5-minute quiz on colorquiz.com, I think the results are quite accurate!

Your Existing Situation
The situation is difficult and you are trying to persist in your objectives against resistance. You find it necessary to conceal your intentions as an added precaution, in order to disarm the opposition.

Your Stress Sources
The existing situation is disagreeable. You feel lonely and uncertain as you have an unsatisfied need to ally yourself with others whose standards are as high as your own, and want to stand out from the rank and file. This sense of isolation magnifies the need into a compelling urge, all the more upsetting to your self-sufficiency because of the restraint you normally impose on yourself. Since you want to demonstrate the unique quality of your own character, you try to suppress this need for others and affect an attitude of unconcerned self-reliance to conceal your fear of inadequacy, treating those who criticize your behavior with contempt. However, beneath this assumption of indifference you really long for the approval and esteem of others.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Circumstances are restrictive and hampering, forcing you to forgo all joys and pleasures for the time being.

Your Desired Objective
Long for tenderness and for a sensitivity of feeling into which you can blend. Responsive to anything esthetic and tasteful.

Your Actual Problem
Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of your hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. You are trying to escape from this into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, protecting yourself from dissatisfaction and lack of appreciation.

Your Actual Problem #2
Want to be valued and respected, and seeks this from a close and peaceful association of mutual esteem.

I was checking out Rogers’ data plan for my phone yesterday.

With a data plan, 1kb of data costs $5/5000 kb = $0.001/kb

Without a data plan, 1kb of data costs $0.05/kb

Um.. you mean Rogers is charging 50 times more for each kb if I don’t subscribe to their data plan?

To me, it feels like I am being penalized for accessing data without a data plan.

Here’s what I go through everyday after the oil spill in July.

To me, this is sad news. But it really reflects the world we are living in.
