Mihwa and I drove out to the Barnet Marine Park* on Saturday. I took a total of four pictures and the water light thingy was the most interesting to me.

http://www.city.burnaby.bc.ca/ We’d better put the www in there ’cause it’s still 1996 isn’t it?. Now let’s spend a few weeks coming up with a deep and redundant directory structure so everyone knows that we’re busy. Finally a dash of cryptic naming for job security.
Turning now to things which aren’t interesting to me… I’ve written a ton of posts and they all suck! My drafts area bubbles over with sucky, uninteresting, drivel. I haven’t stopped writing, I’ve stopped posting because it’s all shit.
That is all.

A last minute shot for week 4 of Take 52. While I decided to go with a vegetable theme, I decided against posting shots of my co-workers…

Saturday night I set out to take some pictures of the Olympic goodness that has been going on. I shot a lot on Granville street but mostly of the buildings; the neon looks good at night.
I guess it’s a sign of age that drunken tourists aren’t all that interesting to me. “OK sir, I see by your face paint and lack of shirt that you are the ultimate fan of some sports team. Well done. Very original..”
I hiked almost halfway across the Granville bridge and started clicking away. There were a few more out there taking pictures but truthfully, I was expecting more. In any event, this (^) was the best of the bunch.
Not bad given my limited understanding of my camera but I was a bit disappointed when I started looking at the results in iPhoto. There were a few where I thought I really had something…
Maybe next week…

At Jack Poole Plaza. Not a very inspired shot but I am taking more pictures these days. Either I will start to take better pictures or there will be more like this…

Twenty years. That’s a long time by any measure. I’ll grant you, the years do go by a greater clip as you age.
Twenty years ago today, a younger, slimmer, dumber, and poorer version of me packed all his worldly possessions into a slightly rusty ‘81 Honda Civic and moved to Vancouver.
While many doors have been opened and entered, some closed, it really doesn’t seem like twenty years have gone by.
Happy Korean New Year to all our Korean friends and family! 설날
midbach it's all about me 설날
