the DEARS

the DEARS were amazing. nuff said. (apologizes about the blurred photos)

Nikki, Jenna and I had an awesome amazing time. We'll do this again for sure!

concert weekend

First off, to start the weekend I forced myself to do a 6 page journal response on DIASPORA.... if I haven't talked about that it much... then I haven't seen you in a while.

Diaspora and Transnation Studies (DTS201) is the most awesomest class evah! It deals with the notion of how people or ethnic groups get displaced/exiled from their native homeland. This homeland is ususally distant and probably not there anymore. Once these people have settled down into their adopted homeland, we look at the way they intergrate (or not) and the feeling that they go through. ANyway, that paper was dues Fri AM.

Friday was filled with WOrk as usual followed by a meeting. After that I dash to El Mocambo for a little PUBLIC and HOT ONE. excellent show (not a huge crowd) filled with strong messages and cool lights plus awesome stage entire. It was good. Band was awesome.

Mr. Nathan Larson on guitar, Miss Emm Gryner on Bass,and Mr. Kevin March on Drums.

(mr. Jordan Kern on Guitar)

Overall a rockin' show, rockin' crowd, and finally picked up their CD.

SATURDAY was filled with WORK (I'm a pool whore), and then a meet up with nikki for sushi, which later Jenna joined us. WE ventured to Lee's Palace where we saw the Dears.
Crowd wasn't as jam packed as Shout out out out out... (out out out out) but the show was fantastic. From the vocals-drums-bass-guitar-keyboard it was a love fest between the crowd and the band. It was their third show in TO and a much loved audience gave them the deserving ENCORE appaluse.... KUDOS to Toronto and the DEARS for making my weekend with Jenna and nicole all the more better... here are show pics to dwell over.

Welcome

Hi all,

it's been far too long since Ive posted on this uber-connected medium called "the Internet".
This will be my new site for topics avail for discusion, debate etc...

I've been growing very fond of the "newspaper" and if any newspaper exec. are thinking that the internet has taken over as a way to post the news. I must say that the paper version has been up to my standard.

In today's discussion:
the popular Toronto Star's section of FOOD.

If anyone knows me, they know I adore most shows on the FOOD Network. There is a up an coming star called Ricardo (from Quebec) who definitely is the new RAcheal Ray. His enthusiams and style is just want is need to spark families cooking again. Although I am guilty of doing the "easy" way, I find that cooking helps to relieve streesors of life, and give you a chance to be one with food. If any of you have read the article it talks about how he's trying to bring his popularity to the rest of the "english" speaking world. I think it's due time for a French cooking star, sans Good eats, and Ina Gartens show.... Ricardo is the new up and comer.




Check him out.
