This will be a cynical post about general teenage angst. Just a heads up. But fear not, I’ll include relatively helpful facts and information so that my complaining is tolerable. I think it’s acceptable to have a disclaimer here: I’m not a Dean or anyone important, so if my facts are wrong, don’t shoot the…
In my last two post, Part Uno and Part Dos, I talked about Cuba. Here’s another post about Cuba. Third times the charm, yeah? Yes. But yes, this is the finale of my Cuba posts. This post will have a lot of extra photography. I’m assuming you’ve heard of Ernest Hemingway, the great literary mind…
So the name, The Happy Truck, is kinda clever. They call it the H.appy Truck because it serves Appies (appetizers) to satisfy your Appy-tite. I love word play. But I love food more. First of all, I have to say that the Happy Truck, made me… not so happy. Like table-flipping unhappy. Tracking it down…
When I stumbled upon The Mighty Skillet, it was the day I went to pick up report cards at school. I woke up bright and early (for a teenager) at 10:30 a.m. I checked the Street Food App, their Twitter and Facebook pages and to my pleasure, it was parked downtown, right on my route to school.…
So in my last post, I talked about the resort we stayed at — Las Morlas, and visiting the tallest bridge in Cuba (I won’t repeat the name just because I can’t spell it). But now, I’m gonna talk about touring Havana; the capital of Cuba. The drive from Las Morlas to Havana was around…
So, this is played on Synthesia because you’d probably need to throw yourself on the piano in order to hit at least 50 per cent of the notes. But fret not, there are pretty colors of notes flying everywhere. This is also a real song, with a real melody and harmony. If you play video…
Well, this is fairly overdue, but hey! I thought it’d be fun to share my spring break adventures to Cuba. So I heard that Calgary was cold when I was gone, and it just made my trip so much more gratifying. Okay, apart from that, I had a super fantastic time because my best friend…
The amount of precision KatieAlves uses on her designs and the amount of detail and effort she puts into her makeup is just craaaazy bread o_O. And that is why deviantArt is one of my favorite things, ever. Of course, this isn’t your typical wear-to-school, but I dare you to do it. I think I…
On Sunday, Richie and I went down to Dutton Theatre on the 2nd floor of Central Library to check out this Story Slam Competition. There was a $5 admission fee, and it was actually something completely new to me and worth the money.
HOLY YES! FREE ART LESSONS? Oh yeah, I will be there. And you should be there too!
So Calgary has this amazing artist named Tom Bagley. He’s an illustrator, musician, and North Mount Pleasant Arts Centre instructor.
These are too good. Taste-wise and art-wise. By nocturnalMoTH on deviantART. I applaud this guy’s creativity. Definitely go check out his art.
You don`t come across many people in your lifetime that epitomize your values and everything you want yourself to be, but once in a while, you stumble upon someone that is capable of these things. Not only does this girl have admirable ambitions in life, a mature mindset and achievements beyond the average teen, but…
I’m not into music with lyrics, so I usually go YouTube a bunch of instrumentals (like soundtracks or classical music). It’s different take on music for a lot of people, but I laaave it. Music without words is my favorite. Now, onto the top ten real deal. Oh, let’s make this a countdown, I’ve always…
I have English this semester. WOOHOO. (No sarcasm, I actually love English). This is my tribute to its wonderfulness. I love the poetry unit. -Sigh- From the title, I’m sure you can tell that it’s about a utopian and dystopian society. Watch for where it transitions from utopia to dystopia in the midst of the…
There’s been a story circling on the internet, but it hasn’t really gotten enough attention to become a full-blown news story. I heard about it through YouTube from this video
