This beautiful temple was one of the most amazing, surreal, experiences I have had to date. My camera died right before we hiked up here so this is the only photo I could get unfortunately.

Scoot City
My favourite part of Hamilton’s own VIEW magazine is the Rant Line (and Savage Love is good too). For those of you who are not from Hamilton, the Rant Line is a column where people write in anonymously and well, rant, about anything that has to do with Hamilton. They are hilarious with topics that can stretch out for weeks, and more often then not very true.
Last week someone submitted...
love BODEGA
It’s no surprise, I love clothes and when I heard that a new vintage store opened up in Hamilton (thanks to ihearthamilton.tumblr & myhammerca.tumblr) I had to check it out for myself. I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. In one stop you can get your eye-brows waxed, pick up a completely original outfit fitting for any personality, fix up your face with some MAC, accessorize with...
This Week at Work
Well it was a busy week at work. January’s over and welfare checks were out but we still managed to have some fun and take some photo’s.
Larry with his pint of Canadian and safari hat. He’s always telling me jokes about his customers which I’m not allowed to repeat for legal reasons and blowing the cover on his job.
Best buds if I ever saw them.

Sammie Sliders
two pounds of fresh salmon (super cheap from the farmers market and make’s enough sliders to last for a few days). Ps you can totally use canned tuna for this.
any spices and condiments that are lying around.
any vegetables you have in the fridge that are about to expire.
four eggs (to act as a glue agent)
cheese is optional. I didn’t use it this time but if you want just shred...
Nobody, I repeat nobody, needs this much coffee in one sitting.
Found this guy the other day. My friends brother gave it to me for my 16th birthday. He was 14. Errrrr…thanks Anthony.
Books You Should Read
While packing up my life into boxes I came across my mini library. Instead of a white picket fence, I dreamt that one day I would have a massive library in my house with a moving ladder like the one in Beauty and the Beast. After years of collecting and putting away, I have realized recently that my future library is taking shape quite rapidly. While doing all this I found some books I have read...

So this week I occupied myself with a couple of new things: a digital camera and editing programs. I have been fascinated with taking photo’s my entire life but my passion deteriorated with the advancement of technology. I will always prefer film camera’s over digital, but my conversion is strictly due to traveling purposes (and learning something new. Why not).
With the help of my...
"Is Some Days Workin A Lot of Work?" - Panama
This I found the other day. I don’t understand how mushroom cuts were ever cool but it was the end of the 80’s, and the start of the 90’s so I can understand how people were confused. At the time that my mother was trimming my hair around a bowl, the Spice Girls were preparing to take over the world and Pogs, hacky-sacks, and plastic soother necklaces were already running the...
Red Means Good
See the red happy face in the distance? See how it’s in every square so far? Yes, this means I haven’t failed on my attempt to quit smoking. The group has narrowed down to a solid five, in which I strongly believe will conquer February without faltering.
To be honest, I haven’t really thought about smoking until the last couple of days when I started packing and organizing my...
WatchDave 6 in his glory. This is what keeps me going at work…

My working view, first thing in the morning, every morning. Chucks ass hole is a lot worse in real life then this photo could ever describe.

Funeral for a Habit
Ever since I started this whole non-smoking thing, the subject has gained a bit of attention amongst my friends and acquaintances. That’s one thing about working in a bar, you mention something and everyone has an opinion or story about it. It keeps my job interesting.
I have been getting so much encouragement to quit, and the board is on the wall right in my face every day to remind me...
can we join your social club because we are...
I’ve grown up in Hamilton most of my life and due to my numbered days in the city that will always be in my heart, I decided to take on a mini project with non other than Iggy. I’ve wanted to do this for a long while but time and situation where never on my side…until now. Each week we will be exploring a new area of Hamilton. My goal is to emphasize just how intricate and...

Birthdays. They come and go. Some disappoint you, others pull through. Just like people I guess. I went into my last birthday without expectations. For the last few years I’ve combined my birthday celebration with friends and family who are around the same date. I stressed about every single detail to the point where at the end of the night I forgot that it was my day to, and at times was...
Vegas Punk House
Anyone who knows me well, knows that Halloween is my absolute most favourite day of the year. It’s more important than my birthday or any other holiday. Got it? Okay. So I have been working the last four Halloween’s and this year decided to go to Vegas and do it big.
What better way to accommodate this passion than to stay in Fat Mike’s (NOFX) mini mansion just blocks from the...

Gingerman Social Eatery
Great restaurant, great decor (relaxed modern pub atmosphere), amazing food.
This place opened up not to long ago on Kerr St. I would pass by questioning the name and location. Turns out the food was amazing. I’m a fan of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and this was one of the best.

Your Nails On Crack
Iggy comes back right before my birthday and my vow to not drink until Dec. 25th (with the exception of my birthday) is broken. Two bottles of wine, a shit load of nail polish, chain smoking on the porch during deep conversation and passing out to 500 Days of Summer on repeat, this is what you wake up with.
Next: we’re going to play white girl/black girl Hamilton. Neon...
