under-rated desire

Note: I’ve expanded my idea towards “desire” into 4 hellish paragraphs to better explain the whole thing. Thx for reading.

People can be trapped into so-called “short-term” freebies with short-term high value and seemingly minimal cost. What they don’t realize is the long-term cost, or consequence behind it. Freebies can easily morph into your desires and [...]

Taste note: Sushi Bar Wabi Sabi

On the 10th ave near the entrance of UBC, Sushi Wabi Sabi does not have a very attractive front door. It’s dark and the banner isn’t sharp (but artistic). I’ve been thinking to try that out for quite sometime: 1st time I went there to take a look at its front door and the menu. [...]

holiday

1) bought a “big” gift for my parents for their 30th wedding anniversary. was buying a pair of car speakers for myself but ended up refunded it. it’s cheaper to get them online.
2) got a nice news clip from a friend who reminded me when she saw the news. Thank you. Notable quote: ·tÅʹLº}«G¤k¤lªº¨k¤H¸ò©MÁà¼Ëªº¤k¤l½ÍÅÊ·Rªº¨k¤H¤@¼Ë¦h.

Diva @ the Met.

Located at the Metropolitan Hotel, this place is a classy setup with wonderful services.. and price tag too haha.

Weird it was tasted with smth like chinese BBQ sauce. [...]

Quantun HD officially passed away on Dec 16 01:55

Yup my 13.1 HD is dead after suffering from the long unrecoverable unknown diesease. Early SMART error detector already indicated that it won’t survive much longer but still it was all of a sudden to me. Earlier I have prepared the worst and moved all the important files out of the hard drive but still [...]

Bin941

(Last good restaurant I remembered to write.. for now.. haha) Bin941 is the brother of the Bin942, which both are fusion restaurants. After trying Bin942 twice, now I think I should head for the “main” shop. This place is considerably older and feel even more dense. I recommend going to 942 if you were planning [...]

Guu @ Gastown

Was suggested a several times, I finally had the chance to check it out tonight. Continuing its success, the Guu group expands its 3rd location @ gastown. It took a bit of challenge for us to find it. Seemed to be loaded of cash now, this company had the best decoration of the 3 places [...]

Sen5es

b4 the upcoming website which will divide this blog into several sections, I’ll start writing some food blogs(yes there’ll be a sub-section for fooood). Few days ago I took the challenge to walk 5 blocks from my work to the famouse modern bakery: Sen5es (I just love the way they put the 5 in its [...]

With tons of things already happening this month, I finally picked up the mood to write more on my website, as you could see from the #s of blogs I wrote compared to November.
