Like a lot of my adventures in the past couple of years, this story of mine also started with me taking a day off work. Indeed, a few Fridays ago (February 1), I had planned quite a day off for myself. I was supposed to meet up with my friend Chelsea and a friend of   Read More …

This is me, from fall of 2004 (top left) to last month (bottom right, November 2012). All of these pictures are taken from my web gallery, which I encourage you to visit.  It does not take a genius to know that I’ve grown up.  It’s quite obvious that I looked more like a girlish young   Read More …

All summer long, whenever I had the chance to go out en femme, I have brought my camera with me.  A few times I was with friends who took pictures for me, or I would put the camera on a tripod to take photos of myself.  I just love having my pictures taken, especially if   Read More …

I have recently switched to working part time, which has given me more time to go out than ever.  Last month, I went with Samantha downtown, and we managed to take some beautiful pictures at Allen Garden.  After going out for lunch with Samantha, I had two very long days out with another friend, where   Read More …

Two very interesting events happened on Monday.  First I took the entire day off for a “mental health day”.  Instead of going to work, I spent the late morning and afternoon hours with a friend in Richmond Hill, north of Toronto.  It was a rather hot and humid day in this part of Canada (the   Read More …

I just came back from my trip to Vancouver last weekend. There were a number of things that I needed to take care of while I was there, the most important being that I was attending a friend’s wedding. We have been friends for more than 14 years, since she was 15 and I was   Read More …

I am now safely back in the comforts of my own home in Toronto, although I don’t believe my home can ever be as “comfortable” as my super-luxurious room at the Sheraton Waikiki (albeit the decor was a bit dated).  But while coming home means coming back to all my responsibilities here, it’s good to   Read More …

I finally have a gallery installed on my website!  Perhaps in the future, I won’t have to rely so much on Flickr and other services, seeing that I actually have my own servers without serious limits on the number of pictures I am allowed to have!  You can click on “Gallery” on the website or   Read More …

I suppose that I have always been interested in photography.  My high school offered two photography courses, one in Grade 9/10, and another one in Grade 11/12.  I took both, and I did quite well too.  But after graduating high school, the workload in the Engineering faculty in university was quite heavy, and I spent   Read More …

I spent the Victoria Day weekend home in Vancouver to attend a friend’s wedding. I haven’t been spending much time in Toronto in the last few weeks, but it’s still a great relief to be somewhere nicer than The Big Smoke.  And aside from a few minor responsibilities at the wedding banquet, I was on   Read More …
