This…
Today, I saw on tumblr what may be the single most adorable post of all times. Until now, I didn’t know of the existence of Tea Cup Pomeranians, but there really are no words that are capable of describing this level of cuteness. If you wish to check out the original source of these photos,…

Last Saturday, I had the pleasure of attending PARKLUXE 2013, an event aimed to celebrate local artists and designers. This particular event took place at the Telus SPARK center and was attended by many lovers of art and fashion, as well as professionals. I was utterly amazed at every detail of the fashion show itself,…
It’s October, everyone, and you know what that means. Time again for the pumpkins and candies, for both happy kids and dentists alike. Who will you be this Halloween? Will you be out there trick-or-treating, or handing out chocolates to costumed children? Since October 31 is on a Thursday, my plans would be to kick…
Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of posts on tumblr where people have made chocolate chip cookies into cup-shapes and filled them with icing. Of course, being the food addict that I am, I just had to go and try making my own. However, I found that most of the chocolate chip cookie recipes on…
Kara is a robot designed with the single purpose of making our lives easier. She is capable of everything a human does and more. However, when the android accidentally expresses her ability to think and feel, she discovers the horrible truth about her existence.

Psychologist Carl Jung once stated that one of the most prominent archetypes in our dreams is the ‘visage’–a representation of the masks we wear everyday. How many of us can remain true to ourselves when facing peer pressure on a daily basis? We’re so conscious of other people’s opinions, we feel that we need constant…
My favorite aspect of tea tree oil lies in its aroma; tea tree oil possesses a piney, minty smell that instantly invigorates me even when I’m exhausted. Waking up is the most difficult part of going to school for me, but with my new homemade tea tree oil scented car freshener, I know I’ll be…

August 15-18, lucky Calgarians and tourists alike got to sample some of the best food the city has to offer at Taste of Calgary in Eau Claire Market. Unlike my friends, who took their time to wander about and visit the vendors and shows, my first priority when we arrived (given that I had skipped breakfast that…
I’m really a big fan of short films, and this particular one caught my interest sometimes last week. I thought it was rather clever how the makers embedded symbolism and metaphors into the animation without any verbal hints. The story line is rather eccentric and is able to convey an unpleasantness without resorting to morbidity.…
Hello video game of the year! Wow! This is actually the most amazing game I’ve come across yet in 2013. After finishing the new Tomb Raider, Deadpool, and Bioshock Infinite, I honestly thought that there was no way any game could exceed my expectations. I’m happy to say that I was very wrong. Who knew…
Pawel Kuczynski is known for his many illustrations centering political and economic satire. When I first saw this set of images, I found them to be extremely powerful and astonishingly true. He focuses on widely known global issues and depicts them in an almost surreal, yet very disturbingly permeable way. Kuczynski is a talented artist…
