Drink #001

I think it looks pretty good. Though the chocolate egg roll was My idea. Hahaha...

Happy Drinking,
Kevin

Bellinis!!!

Just recently bought the ingredients to make an Earls White Peach Bellini...

The drink is so hard to mix. They just posted the ingredients to make it, but they don't tell you how much of each to put in. :(

More practice for me I guess :)

Here's the recepie for the White Peach Bellini.
appleton estate vx rum, white wine, peach syrup and peach liqueur, sangria |

Have fun mixing :)

Rain, rain, rain, rain and more rain!

I know it's seems like I'm whining, but seriously... too much rain! For the southern American's who are reading this, I'm sorry. I would love for this rain to move over there and for yours to move up here. Every day, there is rain, and it's getting a bit overwhelming. Our basement water pump has never stopped pumping water out.. We've collected over 50L of water!

Hope this rain stops soon!!!!

Our World is Ever Changing...

Wow, did anyone see the news?! Oslo downtown bombing, and massive shooting at a camp - on a island a few hours outside of Oslo, Norway.

Apparently, the Christian, right-wing extremists, bombed downtown Oslo, then made his way to the Youth Camp. He changed into a police uniform, and gained trust from the youths. Many thought it was a hoax; shortly after, he opened fire. Over 98 youth campers are dead.

My prayers goes out to the Country of Norway - for those who lost loved ones.

On the lighter side, Simple Plan's Warped Tour launched.

As well, heat-wave and droughts on the eastern and southern border of the U.S. I wish we can take some of the U.S.' heat! I mean, it's been raining here every second day! And those pesky mosquitos!!! Fuck!!!

The former "Klondike Days" have began. The "Capital Ex" exhibition is running July 21-31, the longest festival in Canada!


Have a fantastic July!

Happy Belated Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day! Yesterday was the "official" Canada Day, but because of work, I had no time to post. Ugh, work was so dead yesterday, then all of a sudden, 10 minutes before closing - 2 people had to order; 1 driver, and the locations of their house was in opposite directions. We closed at 1AM, and we didn't leave until 1:30AM!!! Fuck this shit! Lol.

I'm just wondering, can people order a bit earlier prior to closing?! Sheesh. I don't want to stay in that dumpster of a store for longer than needed. Definitely quitting after summer!

As for today, back to that shitty workplace!

Hmm, I guess every guy loves to drive! Pretty fun today; Just going to a doctors appointment (not fully better yet), then going to London Drugs, then to the bank, back to London Drugs to pick up perscriptionss, then finally home!
All in all, it took 2 hours! Geez. Appointment to see the doctor was at 11:10; he didn't see me till 11:35. Went downstairs to London Drugs, and had to wait 20 mins for the medicine. I decided to go to the bank to save time (during the wait). The line was so god damn long! Maybe cause it's Canada Day tomorrow, and everywhere else is closed; except us. And that took possibly 30 mins. I went back to London Drugs for my perscription and then drove back home!!

All in 2 hours... What an eventful day. Now it's just work at 5!! Lovely.

Next Tattoo Design?

Sometime down the road, I would like to extend my half sleeve. Maybe something like a Buddha design would look good.

Phlegm, Phlegm, and more PHLEGM!!

Firstly, why is the word "Phlegm" spelt that way? where the "ph" sounds like an "f" and the "g" is silent?! "Flem." Anyways, I don't think throughout my entire life that I've coughed up that much Phlegm!!! It's disgusting - the mucus-y green/yellow color... It's kind of disgusting actually.

Rain, go away!

Edmonton received 90+mm of rain between Saturday and Monday... (that's equivalent to a month's worth!)

Sick (as in cool..)

Flu

Being sick sucks! But seriously, who doesn't get sick. However, it's kind of strange that I got sick around this time last year as well. Last year's fever was much worse. Up to 39•c and it happened when I was on a tour to Singapore and Malaysia! And it so happened that it was caused from a throat infection too!! This is too coincidental!!!

Time to get some rest,
Kevin

Gloomy

For 3 days, the skies in Edmonton are filled with grey- dreary clouds. Oh where, oh where did our sun has gone?!

To make things worse, I've been working for 9 days now... Today is my 10th.... I just want to quit so bad... I'm definitely leaving after the summer holidays though! I can't stand making pizza, being rushed, and sweating all day around the oven.


Hope your day is better than mine :)

Somewhat. Disappointing.

As many of you know, yesterday's Stanley cup playoffs was won by the Boston Bruins. Though, many Vancouverites are not finding that news, pleasant.

Riots began after the brutal defeat of the 4-0 match. Many fans and anarchists took it to the streets (Vancouver Sun). As the sun began to rise in Vancouver, many Vancouverites we're alarmed upon the first sight of their destroyed downtown. Bottles, glass, burned vehicles - littered the streets. Mannequins we're thrown into fashion stores; such as H&M.

I find these headlines very true:

"No, it is not another G20 protest — somebody lost an ice-hockey match." - London Daily Mail
"In Syria, they riot for freedom. In Pakistan, they riot against U.S. drone strikes. In China, they riot over many things, most recently in Guangdong province for worker's rights. But in Canada, which is officially ranked as one of the wealthiest and most peaceful nations in the world, they riot over, yes, hockey." - Washington's The Atlantic

Note to self: When moving to Vancouver, don't live in downtown!

Game 7: Bruins!

Bummed out by the Canucks loss, since I'm a Canadian afterall. But good job Bruins. I'm trapped between 4 white walls at work... making pizza... gross!
Just 1.5 more hours to go!!!!!! Please time, go by faster!

I recently went to Jasper. Some pictures are uploaded on my flickr page. We saw mountain goats! So magnificent!
We were going to go to Banff in 2 weeks, but it's going to rain, so the Muttart Conservatory will have to do I guess.

Also in 2 weeks, it's time to finish my tattoo half sleeve! Super excited!


Best regards,
Kevin
