I’m impressed with myself. Today I started writing another short story, and although it will be a lot darker than the one I finished last week, I am pretty excited to write it. If I can finish a third story before the end of this break, I will be infinitely impressed with myself. But I love these random bursts of creative writing. I welcome them with open arms.

A Recommendation

Just finished all two seasons of Downton Abbey, and I have to say that it was such an immense joy knowing that this show is out there. It has the elements of a great show: romance, an entertaining cast, a certain lady named Maggie Smith, plot twists, an element of freshness, and a satisfying temporary cure to my Anglophilia. Seriously, please do check it out because I don’t think you will...

I Can be such a Mushhead

Yesterday evening, prior to hanging out with some amazing friends at a high school music alumni gathering, I went to see the Adventures of Tintin with my dad. While I have never read these series, I really wanted to see this movie because it just looked so cool, and although I have a preference for 2D movies, this one was well done in 3D. Add in some amazing acting by Jamie Bell as the titular...

Day II: The Case of Luggage

My worst travel experience occurred—not surprisingly—on my first overseas travel experience. In 2006, my high school band and choir went on a performance tour to Austria and the Czech Republic in celebration of the 250th anniversary of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s birth. The trip itself was wonderful—walking along cobblestoned streets in Prague and Salzburg, walking across...

Day I: Beauty Abounds...Along the St. Lawrence

Every year for the past three years, I have been fortunate to be able to travel each August and April between my two homes—Fredericton, New Brunswick where I attend school and my hometown of Grimsby. My parents and sometimes my siblings accomplish this drive between the two in about eighteen hours (once we did it in one shot which was nice). I have had my grandmother and my uncle join along...

That question meme, for TRAVEL LOVERS!!

bewitchingbritain: I shall only do one question meme. I haven’t ever done one before, so if they annoy you please please forgive and skip it. I shall list only ten, they are travel-related, and I would love to be asked them as well. If you are also a travel junkie, reblog if you’d like to be asked: 1. What is the most beautiful place you have travelled to? 2. Tell a travel...
