Whistler 2010



My home land was chosen to host the Winter Olympic Games this year in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada. I am an exited Canadian and a proud supporter of our home athlete. I know that they will make us all proud! This is not the first time Canada host the Olympic games so that gives Canada and edge!

I hope that Canada takes as many gold medals as possible but more so in the Men's and Women's Hockey. So we can show the world how we play our game and that no one will beat us at our game in our house!

Go Canada!

Alcohol? How much is too much!


So I have been doing so research on the art of drinking in order to find out how to be a better person but more important so I don't kill my self.

Well it seems that there are a number of thing you can do to control your intake of alcohol on a night out of drinking.
- The number 1 recommended tip is "Stay Hydrated" alcohol actually dehydrates your body so you feel thirsty and want to drink more but make sure that you drink water to keep your body hydrated.
- Second is to pace yourself, don't drink to much to quickly. If your out with friend, at a party, or even if your drinking alone at home, take your time. You will spend less at the bar and your intoxication level will increase gradually.
- Third mix it up! Don't just drink beer after beer branch out and try something different mixed drinks work best, they are mixed with some other form on no-alcoholic beverage that can help keep you hydrated. If your going to do shoots remember to pace yourself there is no need to do 10 shoots in a row.
- Fourth remember (especially if your out with friends) to socialize have fun, go crazy if you like the whole point of going out in the town is to have fun!

After everything I hope that this has helped because a great night out usually means a bad morning so the last tip is plan for the next morning. The effects of all the alcohol consumed will be felt the most the morning after, stay tuned because I have some great tips that have worked for me. I am sure you all have your hangover tips and cures as we all do.

Nap Time?


Hey what ever happen to nap time? Remember back in kindergarten when after lunch you could go to sleep for like an hour then you would wake up for recess or just sleep through recess like me. I miss those days I could really use a nap right about now.

Did you know that in some part of Mexico and Spain they practice this thing called a "Siesta" where you take a nap in the middle of the day. Also there have been studies that prove taking a nap during the day raises your productivity and over all alertness. This proves it we actually need a short break during the day to be able to get through the day, we need to bring back nap time!

If your with me say "I"!

I'm A Winner!


I have always been a cynical man, I don't really believe in fairy tales, happy endings, fate, destiny, or any of that other crap!

I believe life is what you make of it all that ever counts is what we do, what we do is what makes us, and what makes us is what defines us. I have always tried to make my life better, to make choices that define me as a person. I have made mistakes in my life like everyone else but to error is human and to forgive divine right?
Sometimes in life you make choices that cause pain to others, you have to take because no one is just going to hand you things for free. Life is never fair and only the strong survive, if you want happiness you have to take it, if you want success you have to find it and take it, whatever you want in life you have to go out and take it even if this means you will hurt someone in the process. This life if made up of the haves and the have nots, winners and loosers.

Which one are you?

My Dream Job


I have truly been blessed when it comes to employment. Right after a graduated university I landed my dream job working for a large corporation. I was self employed and the large corporation bought my little company and I was kept as a high level company officer. This job would lead me to work for a foreign company, I got to travel, had my own expense account, and personal assistants. Life could not be better, the job afforded me many luxuries like the latest cell phones, best technological gadgets, name brand fashion, new cars sometimes 2 and 3 of them at one time, my own travel expense card, but the best thing of all was the "friends". I was making lots of contacts with in Canada and abroad, I meet some high ranking government officials, business leaders, and up-and-coming go getter's that now have dream jobs of their own.

Finally we come to now. My dream job took me away from home to a foreign country. A beautiful warm place with lots of beaches, amazing scenery, where the food is just exceptional! The people are so down to earth and as warm as the weather, there are brands of cars here I have never even heard of OMG! The car market alone was worth moving here. Now I know I am making this place sound like paradise it's just that I love it here. Come visit!

However, I have decided that I need a change so I am going back to my home town where it all started. I want to come home and work in my country(Canada) earn some money and may be pay some taxes. I hope this journey keeps going because I believe the best is yet to come.

New, New


Well it's been a long time since my last post I know. But I have taken a new life and a new job in the hopes that it helps me to forget my old life and where I used to live. I am still unsure how long I wish to stay here or if I am even staying here, I do miss my home.
If and when I do return to my hometown, Toronto, Canada I hope I can start fresh again.

Thinking....


For a little while how I have had writers block, I have not been able to think what to blog about.
I am not sure that it has gone away but I am definitely feeling like there are a million things going on in my mind all at once that I am not sure what do think any more. I am feeling a little melancholic about a new adventure I am on in my life both professionally and personal. There are so many possibilities that have not been explored yet, there are some already traveled roads so I find myself thinking...
What to do? What to do? What to do? That is the question!
Now what is the awnser that well only time will tell.
