Today on the way home from work, I was reading Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice when I caught a glimpse of an extraordinary piece of artwork. The guy sitting across from me was drawing the guy sleeping next to me in his sketchbook with a pen and it looked amazing. I will admit I stared. … Continue reading I’m a Model
Autumn in Calgary
Today I had to break out the coat which in Winchester was my winter coat but here in Calgary is just an early autumn coat. School is starting for everyone again and in the morning I pass three other post-secondary institutions on the train before I get to mine. The summer as we know it … Continue reading Autumn in Calgary
My Summer in Pictures
Okay, so I know this is a lazy post, but at least it's a post. Right? If you click on a pic you can go through a slideshow of them.
A Day in Banff
After sitting around doing nothing but work or school all summer, today my dad, brother, dog, and I finally decided to get out of here, just for the day. And if you live in Calgary, there are only a few places that fall under "just for the day". 70% of the time we end up … Continue reading A Day in Banff
London Day 3
The best way to know a city is to visit it alone and figure out your way around and what you like or don't like. I decided this when I went to Paris. It held true for London. My last full day of my three years in England was spent alone in this grand city. … Continue reading London Day 3
London Day 2
Siân and I got up bright and early with the goal of going shopping in London's one and only Camden Market. We were there for hours. For those of you who've never been, Camden is basically a town of small tents where people sell their wares. These tents are everywhere. And they sell everything. There is a … Continue reading London Day 2
London Day 1: Just Chilling
My last morning in Winchester was nowhere near as stressful as my first night, and I think it really shows how far I've come. A friend gave me and my four bags a ride to the coach stop, and when we were an hour early, he bought me breakfast in a nearby café. I took … Continue reading London Day 1: Just Chilling
A 26-Hour Day
My gosh, I've never felt so homesick in three years as I have in the past several hours. That's a good thing. If there's ever a time to wish you were home, it's as you're on your way there. As I write this, it is 9:12pm and I am in Toronto. In Calgary, it's 7:12pm. … Continue reading A 26-Hour Day
Winchester Day 4: The Hill
Well that didn't exactly go as planned. This post was supposed to go up yesterday, but the internet at my hostel was playing up so here we are, days behind schedule. No worries, we'll catch up soon I'm sure. Wednesday and Thursday I had a workshop thing until 4:30 both days, but I was planning … Continue reading Winchester Day 4: The Hill
Winchester Day 3: The Cathedral
My posts are going to be a tiny bit backlogged for the next few days because I've been insanely busy, but it should work out fine because I'll be travelling all day Tuesday so I'll schedule a post then and we'll be caught up by the time I get home. I went for one last … Continue reading Winchester Day 3: The Cathedral
