It’s really true that you never stop learning new things. Having become a sort of ‘ah jie’ figure in Toronto whom most juniors expect to know a lot about UofT & T.O., it’s refreshing to learn new things from a freshman. For example, I never knew we could order a ‘part hot choc, part coffee’ […]

Algonquin
The trip to Algonquin Provincial Park today was a little less than expected. It seemed we spent forever on the road, and didn’t have any chance to hike along the nature trails. The lack of sunshine muted the fall colours even further. Photography-wise, the trip was quite a disappointment. But…thank goodness there were other sources […]

The Procrastinator's Creed
It’s nearly 4a.m. and I’m still up because the SSHRC website is overloaded and I can’t retrieve my online application. Strangely though, I’m calm and resigned. I have no excuse. I’ve been told that the website tends to crash on the eve of the application deadline. But for some reason unfathomable to myself, I kept […]
