Happy Holidays!

Well I know it's been a really long time since I updated this. I'm lazy and a lot has been going on!

I did indeed go and take pictures of my bandmate's other band. It was pretty fun. I got to sit around and listen to them practice and take some pics. Unfortunately the lighting was less than ideal.

The DJ event was a big success! Although I had no idea what I was doing up there... the small crowd seemed to like what I played so that was nice (I was the first person on so most of the crowd hadn't arrived yet). As the night went on a lot of people came and danced so that was great. I was the official photographer so there are some photos of the event. They have not been posted anywhere YET but they will be at some point. I got to meet a lot of cool people that night so I'm pleased. We're going to do it again as the venue was really pleased with the turn out but this time we get to do it on a weekend. Yay.

I am in my hometown of Vancouver now visiting my family. It's 4:30 in the morning and my jet lag got me up really early. I'm kind of at a loss for what I should do now until everyone wakes up at like 7 or 8. I dont even know how to turn on the TV!!? I've already fed the cat way too much smoked salmon and made myself breakfast.

Oh. I also declined another contract with my company so in June I'm officially jobless. It's kind of nice to have a bunch of possibilities of what to do next. :)

I think that should bring everything up to speed!

Merry Christmas everyone!

So this is Christmas...

Just wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone! I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas season.

I'm working today, hence the short entry.

It is a very delicious crunch chocolate that sprinkled the starry sky of glittering - a chocolate wrapper

I like that Engrish, it's a good one.
So it's the most wonderful time of the year and yet somehow in Japan it seems even more shallow and materialistic. There are Christmas trees everywhere and even a Santa Claus or two and I cant help but wonder who actually knows what this holiday is about... same for Canada though let's be real.
I have some Christmas parties at school for kids and adults. We're supposed to sing for the little kids... should be fun!
My coworkers and I are having Christmas dinner on the 25th... I'm not too sure I want to go but then if I dont... I'm the black sheep of the group and that's no good. But! On December 26th I've recently been in touch with an old friend from high school who was an exchange student from good ol Japan. He's living outside of Tokyo so we're going to meet up and have a little high school reunion. It should be awesome!
And the best news of all! My Mum will be arriving in 11 days! I have some great things planned and I cant wait to see her lovely face :)
As for now... That's about all the updates I can give... Will report back later.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
