crack

Monday, March 31st, 2008

yesterday night i discovered that the glass on my lens filter is totally cracked. what’s weird is i have NO idea how it happened. and since it doesn’t seem to be screwed in properly, i can’t get it off either. sigh. i guess that means a field trip to henry’s!

gadgets for girls

Thursday, February 7th, 2008

I am a girl. I like technology. It’s frustrating when companies think that all they need to do to make a product appealing to a woman is paint it pink. There’s way more to it than that. It’s nice to read about some companies that seem to finally be getting it. One of my favourite […]

On Friday night I was told that the Tim Horton’s Hot Smoothies have 700 calories. While the information came from a trusted source (the student of a friend) I found it disturbing that I had consumed this many calories in liquid form without relizing it.
