  • Totally Unknown Writers Festival 2010

    On Wednesday evening, I went to the 17th Annual Totally Unknown Writers Festival. As always organized by the great folks from Life Rattle Radio and originally founded by two of my professional writing professors, Guy Allen and Arnie Achtman. As with every year, great stories written and read by talented authors from around Toronto. I…

  • In the Beginning of November…

    A new month begins and a new twist to life. This is the first day at a new office in downtown Toronto. Not that I’ve changed positions, I’m still working as a mobile developer for Web Impact. For my coworkers, this is nothing new since they all worked at the Toronto office before moving out…

  • Gliders, Italy and Androids

    What an incredible summer and it is funny how it all started.  I found myself without a job at the end of April.  A week or two later I started a crazy schedule of fencing, archery and hiking amongst the usual day-to-days at home.  I even got to try out some serious tree climbing and…

  • The Totally Unknown Writer’s Festival

    Tonight I’ll be going to the Sixteenth Totally Unknown Writers Festival.  I highly recommend it, especially if you would like to hear aspiring young and young-at-heart writers in Toronto.

  • Ontario GNU Linux Fest 2009

    Tomorrow I’ll be going to Ontario GNU Linux Fest 2009.  It looks like this year it will be another year for this convention.  Not sure why the insistence of adding the “GNU” to the name…  Still I’ll be there, checking out as many of the presentations as humanly possible.  And doing a thorough raid of…

  • Weekends in Toronto, Weekdays on the Run

    The sun is way up in the sky, already changed its colour four times (red, orange, yellow and now whitish yellow thanks to atmospheric effects on the light of a Class G star).  I on the other hand, woke up, scrambled to get ready, drank a coffee and am trying to catch up.  My life…

  • Port City Update

    Hmm… I debated about writing while on “vacation”.  But since I’ve done so much writing today, I felt it might be appropriate to update my blog. I’m staying with family, in my city of birth.  I’m here on brieviment, so not exactly a fun time.  After the funeral, I might see some friends of the…

  • Home Again, Home Again…

    Back in sunny, and fortunately not scorching-hot Toronto. Actually, I flew in on Wednesday but I need about two days to unpack, clean up and readjust. Everything around the house is still in various levels of disorganization, disaster and chaos. So nothing much changed since I left, at least around here. Anyways, currently I am…

  • The Compressed Life

    I can finally confirm, that there is a life after university. And a compressed one at that too. I could go through the details, but I feel too tired to remember all the details. And too lazy to write them all down today. Last weekend, I went to Montreal for the Taizé event. Got to…
