Thursday ramblings

Took some time this morning to reread all my posts since the start of this blog and I realized that my previous posts were meatier in content, whereas nowadays it’s more image based. Perhaps I am too lazy to write…like I have always said, I am not a writer. Which leads me to my other point, after taking the Media Relations course at BCIT; I realize that my passion is in graphics and not communications. Although I learned lots about writing a press release, media advisory and news release…I worry more about my writing style than the actual content. I am not one to add fluff, pizzazz and words you need to look up in the dictionary for the common reader – I just don’t have that creative vocabulary in me. I really admire writers who can do that though…you read as if you are one of the characters in the story… engaging you into their story… (this reminds to find a good book to read, any recommendations?) But seeing how this is my weakness, I should really try to improve on this – off to the library it is! You know what they say…the more you read, the better you write.

Anyhoo…just came back from my lunch walk and picked up an ice cap on the way…this little concoction from Timmy’s is evil…so evil that it added 360 calories to my calorie count today! Not that I am really counting…but I guess I should have went with a small?? In my defense, it was a gorgeous sunny day outside, almost summer weather….so it only seemed right to sip on a smooth and creamy ice cap to wrap my lunch? Mind you, I had a green salad for lunch which totally gave me room for some extra calories – so there, I shouldn’t feel guilty… (okay, maybe just a little) :P

For the past while, many people have asked me, “how’s married life”? And somehow my answer is usually, “ummm..it’s about the same, don’t see much difference”. This might be jarring to some, but in reality it is. My lifestyle hasn’t really changed – I still get to do the stuff I enjoy. I also get to cook! :) I find it fun to cook especially when what you made is yummy – a sense of satisfaction that your hard work didn’t go to waste. Arcot’s been really good at doing the dishes since he knows I did all the cooking…and I really do appreciate it :) – thanks LG!
