This will be my internet home away from home; a place to bust my writing chops. I'm interested in lots of things, you never know what's going to pop up here.

This is the farthest I've ridden in one day!
Spoiler alert: I did not go to Boiler Room. But, there was a DJ (Erik Flow) in front of the Eaton Centre in Toronto, and my sister and I had a lot of fun dancing ... even though we were rudely interrupted by a tweaker that started...
I haven't done the math, but these are pretty cheap to make. I got the bristol board for a dollar, and only a third of it made five covers so far! When I finish standardizing my process, I'll make a tutorial zine & blog post.
If something stinks, I'm your "man". I can smell incoming sickness1, the compost a day or two before it needs to go out, when someone has recently been in a room. Winter has a scent too2, and so does tap water, depending on how it's been...
Even though I've got a lot of zine ideas cooking1, I've been working on one about my favourite foods. It's going to be called, "foods I could eat my body weight in". Doing the illustrations for the foods has been a great for easing...

University is so unserious lol. Graphic design is my passion.

feeling: silly
A few weeks ago, ended up on the Wikipedia page for Wordle and was struck by how whimsical its origin story is. Josh Wardle came up with the concept for the game in 2013, and he finished the prototype in 2014 before putting it aside. He...
Found out today that I have TWO interviews lined up! I've never had a job in my life, just volunteer experiences (which I loved, but still -- I want money!!)
The only time I've ever "believed" was when I was a child. I would have nightmares about burning in hell, my body becoming part of a molten pit of fire. Luckily, I grew up in a really diverse area and went to a public school, so I made...
