Ugh Sick


Sorry about no post yesterday but I got sick!;( However its back to work today. I am working from home building some content for the Child Care Model. Tricia is coming over to voice record for the project. This is my set up.  I will be recording using a USB Snowball mic, Garage Band and Imovie HD. Which by the way I feel that imovie has become way harder to use than the last time I used it....granted that was five years ago and I used it everyday.

  My brother left for new york today. He is going snowboarding at white face. He has these socks that feel like you are wearing a cloud. I had them on yesterday while I was feeling sick. I also tried on his Snowboarding boots. I felt like I was a moon man.

Yesterday while I was sick I watched a couple of movies. I watched the Proposal staring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. The film was such a good  RomCom. I forgot how great chick flicks can be. I then watched Extract while I did some work for CMAS. Extract was hilarious and I thought both Ben Aflec and Jason Batmen were hilarious. I felt this movie is just as good as Office Space, which was also hilarious. At the end of the day before I went to bed I watched the film The Lovely Bones.
 This movie changed me. I loved it. Half way through I had full on cried twice. This film made me feel so many emotions. I thought it was great. I think that the film looked so good. So vivid. Also I do believe that Mark Walberg was miscast. However it never took me out of the film. I highly suggest it to anyone.
  As for the New Years resolutions, I have kept up with my 6 glasses of water a day and my cutting back on eating out. I have yet to work out but I am promising myself I will.

Well thats it for today. I am listening to Jay-Z's blue print 3 and its fabulous.

It's a Vicious Cycle of Awesome

So yesterday I started my resolutions.

I did drink 6 glasses of water. So proud day 1. I also started organizing for my move.
I built some spreadsheets. No one was more happy than myself at these spreadsheets.
 I used excel code. I color coded all of it. They look awesome.

I also went to Starbucks and Sherway gardens with Leslie, Kara, and my bro.

We just went to baby gap. Kara was feeling ill. However we did end up buying a cute dress for her. However it was for a three year old but Kara is a cute little fatty so she will fit into it soon. Brandon also rented border lands! We also beat Uncharted 2: Drakes Fortune....last boss really hard but it was awesome none the less.


 I am now back at work...though I only took a total of five days off....
which was good I did not loose that much money. However we
changed the office around. I can not wait for Pauls face when he walks in!
I am also starting the second phase of my Technology project.
I am createing help guides on the online products we use.
Both print and video. If anyone has any suggestions on a
program I can use to record my desk top would be
benificial and appreciated.

Welcome 2010

So I am going to start updating this space. Well why you might say well its part of my new years resolutions. Yes thats write I did I am doing the resolution. So here they are

1. Work out 3 times a week for 30 minutes each-Wii EA Sport active will welcome me back right?!?
2. Drink 6 glasses of water a day- I know 8 is what you are suppose to drink but baby steps
3. Cut back on fast food- Me and Kris are guilty of this
4. Take a picture a day-Starting with the one I just took
5.UPDATE BLOG-Already Started
6. Create the perfectly formated itunes library-So close maybe 8 hours left!
7. Plan for upcoming move-Lists I want a ton
8. Design and Create CD Art-This series will be awesome!

I am so serious about these resolutions I wrote them on the wall....

Yep on the board with room for more. Now maybe the public shaming will make me follow through on all of these.

 So there is another reason I wanted to write this blog was to show my creative process in the website I work on which is www.cmascanada.ca which your all welcome to visit. I will be working on creating both internal content and external content and would like to show my creative process.....Also just to talk about what I do all day. I know boring but someone needs to listen.


That being said yesterday i committed to watching the first and second season of Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia.  This show if you have never seen it is hilarious. Honestly not since Arrested Development have I loved a show so much. I personally think you should check out Dennis and Dee go on welfare. I feel that episode in itself is honestly the best description of this series.


The next piece of media I consumed is PS3 exclusive Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. I feel this is video game dose right. I play on super easy. I do not mind it, mainly because shooter games and me do not get along really. Give me the ability to stab or beat someone up and I will play right up there on the difficulty but for some reason the hand eye coordination needed for a shooter I do not possess. However this game is beautiful.

I also had a huge 4 hour marathon of Deadliest Catch....That show is awesome.

Well thats it for today.
