The Morning Came Again
Another fine morning and another beautiful sunrise rising over Toronto. This may seems like a common theme, but I love the mornings. I love the mornings cause it matches my personality. I am a forward thinker. I enjoy peering into the future. Little wonder why I enjoy trying out beta software. Or why I follow…

Grey Clouds, Sunny Outlook
I get into the office really early in the morning. These past fews I normally got greeted with a dark sky and street lights. Each day the sunrise earlier. But each day the sun would rise, brilliant lines of yellow, orange, red and pink would form across the skyline. In the distance the CN tower,…

Why I Like Free Software and Freedom
Adding freedom to software is a great business tactic. It gives back control to the customer, who now becomes not just another faceless entity to pilfer. Now the customer becomes a client, a person with real goals, ambitions and needs. And libre software/open source is a guarantee to serve those needs. But it need not…

Echo 14: Something
Lets try something new. I’ll comment on Marika’s blog posts with another blog post. This will make it easier to respond, generate a larger audience and increase posts per day. Yes, I’m pigbacking on somebody else’s work. 🙂 So without further ado, I present a new sporadic feature: Echoes to Ramblings. In response to Ramblings…

An Encore
I didn’t update my blog yesterday. Life turned out busier than I could imagine. I am still catching up on things. I took on so many tasks. I have a trip to plan. Writing and reading just piles up around me. I’m not sure in which direction I should concentrate my efforts. My efforts to…

Sleepless in Toronto
It is too early to blog this morning. I’m sitting in at work in an empty office space. Alone, just a few lights and mostly in the dark. Still dark outside with some street lights, the slow moving lights of communter’s car and random distant lights of various colours. The sun still has an hour…

Worn Out
Not much to update today. Yesterday wore me out emotionally. (Gasp! He still has feelings! Oh no!) So I didn’t get much done. Today I’m half-tired and half-motivated. The motivation is really for all the wrong reasons. I just want to prove to the majority of people how wrong they are about me. And rub…

Forced Update
Ugh… I feel so tired this early in the morning. Normally I enjoy mornings. My best thinking happens in the morning. Today I feel comatose. So Marika, if you think that you are the only one whose brain goes on vacation for the weekend… guess again. This new entry probably comes off as forced. But…

A Time for Silence
We live in a busy, bustling and noisy world. Ever since the industrial revolution and the explosion of commerce and industry, we have learned to make more and more noise. To the point, we get uncomfortable as my friend Marika pointed out. We get so used to the background chatter and noise, that when it…

Dinner at Prince
Tonight I met up with one of my friends from my professional writing course, Andrei. Since I could meet him in the early evening, that meant I could get some extra sleep and start work later. Extra sleep is always a welcome change in my schedule. Commuting to work by bus not so much. Work…
