Compact Portrait: January 2008
http://kimu.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, 5 January 2008. On "Before Sunrise" and Microloans. One of the glories of being back in Coquitlam is my ridiculous proximity to the best satellite library of the Greater Vancouver Regional District. It was built about 500 metres from my parents' home when I was probably around 8 or 10; Nadia and I spent the summer sneaking onto the building site and trying to leave marks in the cement. The site was ideal for other beautiful reasons: at that time ( much. So, I was just watching Before Sunrise.

Friday, 28 October 2011. Oh hi there, if you're still with me. Since this is a somewhat restricted public forum, it's time to get personal. I'm posting this irreverent Top Ten list and linking you to a few meatier articles. Loved ones who might be looking to find out what's really going on in my life can feel more looped-in;.

Compact Portrait: August 2006

Saturday, 26 August 2006. Stitched view from my hill. This guy lives in our front yard. To get the goods. Liz, by the way, is by far the most advanced Skype-user: her webcam makes me miss her muchly, but also inspires me to get one for myself. Remember when the idea of videophones used to be crazy crazy sci-fi. And we used to say, "forget it, I wouldn't want to have to change out of my pajamas to make a phone call! Well, I'd much. Rather see a pj'ed Liz than no Liz at all! As at Easter, we camped near th...

Compact Portrait: December 2006

Wednesday, 27 December 2006. Buon Natale (means Merry Christmas To You). The Christmas guests are clearing out and the news is that I passed all my exams - perfect conditions for racing through a re-haul of my thesis proposal in time for its deadline.tomorrow. Cannot explain more now, so read on for a sort-of-synopsis by the guy whose work I will be expanding upon: evaluating the suitability of the GRI. As a method for performance measurement and improvement for small- to medium-sized social enterprises.

Compact Portrait: June 2007
http://kimu.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 5 June 2007. Well, this first photo isn't about Louise, but I think it's the best one I've taken this year so am inflicting it on you whether you like it or not. May I quickly point out that the bee's delicate wings are perfectly angled to reflect the clouds; The Great Pastry Chef In The Sky has piped pollen rosettes onto the bee's little legs; and the whole scene is " pink. Washed" - it just doesn't get any better than this (for me, anyway). Back to the subject at hand: Rufus Wainwright, who yo...

Compact Portrait: May 2008
http://kimu.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Friday, 23 May 2008. Well I snapped these babies up for $25 at C'est La Vie. On Main last Sunday; hiding my Saturday sunburn under a 3/4 length flowy-sleeved shirt, I picked my way through all the Made In China. 65 dresses down to 16th. Don't get me wrong: there were/are a few great Made In Canada. Shops ( Narcissist, Twigg and Hottie). Anyway, I literally started to retch at the repetition of SoMa in this article. God help us if it attracts people who actually use. I've not gotten used to having my came...

Compact Portrait: September 2011

Thursday, 22 September 2011. Rome, sweet Rome. In Rome but up north in Bergamo, getting denied for my permesso di soggiorno. Again No tears this time, as I actually didn't really expect to pick it up (ha! And Filippo's family spoiled me like crazy with delicious dinners out and the season's first polenta con funghi porcini. A quick Google search failed to turn up a decent recipe and/or photo, so I'll have to reproduce pcfp. At home then post for all to see. I don't even like. Was the hot air balloon ride...

Friday, 15 September 2006. It has been raining non-stop since yesterday. The air has acquired a barely palpable chill - a subtle hint of the season to come. I am one of those people who loves. The fall, maybe because of its exciting link with. Or for the comfortable personal memories of the Wet Coast's "winter" - a 6-month-long extension of this season that hangs around for only a few explosively colourful weeks in the rest of the world. Why secure property rights matter. Tuesday, 5 September 2006. I'm b...

Compact Portrait: July 2006

Thursday, 13 July 2006. Now with 87% MORE nerditude! I'm almost too old to work in this beauty shop. It was about time, I guess. Dad and I had brainstormed around buying new cables to exploit my digital video camera, but I wanted the same manual options as with my sweet sweet Canon Kiss, yet also craved something handy that could fit in my purse (unlike the s. s. C. K.). So the night before we left for the Palio. See a few pics here. Smile, gentle head shake. Well, you should've known that I'm far. It ha...
