Celebrating Chinese New Year in Calgary
blogs.telegraph.co.uk/ A huge part of Chinese New Year, for me, are the lights. The crackle and boom of fireworks were ubiquitous during the 15 days of celebration – even before that. Lanterns and dazzling lights take over the streets. Every year, when the huge countdown clock on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala reaches…

Make your dress, get a scholarship!
As you all are probably aware that Grad is coming up, and girls and boys – mainly girls – are most likely trying to decide on what to wear! And yes, I know there are Facebook groups out there for girls to place dibs on dresses (’cause if someone wears the same dress… aaaawkward). Now,…
A great adventure with Tintin
At the beginning, I honestly felt like Tintin was one of the least perceptive person ever. His dog, who is totally adorable, seems to discover 85% of stuff that moves the story along. Hm. And not only that, but Tintin deals a lot of property damage in the places he’s at. Although he is running from the ‘bad guys’, he still destroys almost half of an entire city.

Poem: the beauty of nature
The wind blows, As the clouds had arose. Rain pouring down, Upon the beautiful town. Birds hiding in the trees, Everywhere drifting leaves. The lightning is coming, While it hits with heavy striking. The lightning had then stop, And I look up to see a drop. Then comes a rush of hail. It was constant…
Video of the Day: Sugar Plum Fairy on the Glass Harp
Amazing! I think Tchaikovsky was meant to be played on the glass harp. [youtube QdoTdG_VNV4]
Store of the Day: Levi’s
I’m not lying when I say that buying denim from Levi’s really changed my entire perspective towards jean-shopping. Their jeggings are amazing. I’m not even kidding. When I tried on a pair when shopping during winter break and it was like heaven opened up and God himself proclaimed: “thou shalt buy these.” The fabric was nice and thick and…

Image of the Day: Worth Enough?
This is an absolutely breathtaking piece of digital work by radoxist which I honestly love to death. Both settings are beautifully imagined and rendered and the contrast between them is stark and raw. To me, the best part is really the futuristic skyline and the varied buildings that make it up. However, what’s even more…
