11.11.11

The 1st post this year is on 11.11.11 … how interesting (no, I did not plan that). Hope this is not the only 1 post in 2011. LOL! :P

Winter Solstice + Total Lunar Eclipse … tomorrow!!!

Apparently it’s very rare that the lunar eclipse coincides with the winter solstice. The last time was in 1638. The next time will be in 2094.

Winter solstice will be in the afternoon. And the day will get longer after that. Yay!
The lunar eclipse will be in the morning. 2:40AM!!! Uhm …
I want to see it .. just like the one in 2008 (another post here) .. but I can see the moon now, which means at 2:40am tomorrow, it’ll be behind some tall buildings. Which means if I want to see it, I have to go out in the cold. Hmmm…

I think I’ll see it in my dreams this time … ;)

Update (Dec. 21st): there are some nice pictures on flickr.

Aurora Borealis visible from GTA – tonight?

So according to the news .. the Northern Lights may be visible from here. Exciting!! ;)
But with all the light pollution that we have, what’s the chance of seeing one? :(

Earthquake! Yikes!

Just felt an earthquake. Confirmed by the Globe and Mail website .. it was a 5.0 quake felt in Central Canada & some US states. Nuts!

v3.0

Seriously? I had only 2 posts in 2009? I was worse than fruityoaty (she had 3)! LOL. :P

Happy belated New Year 2010! Happy Valentine’s Day! Happy Chinese New Year (of the Tiger)!

And .. the Vancouver Winter Olympic is on. GO TEAM CANADA!!

Back!

Long time no post!
Been thinking .. going to redo this site. One of these days … so, stay tuned! :)

Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas!

Boo (at the Zoo)!

Boo at the Zoo

Yeah, yeah, it might not look scary .. but their price list was scary! With something like almost $4 for a hotdog and almost $5 for a sausage, I ran away scared. LOL! :P

Have a safe Halloween!!! Don’t eat all of those candies at once now … ;)

Boom De Ah Dah!

Have you seen the cool advertisement for the Discovery Channel Canada lately? There are also the Original version and the Short version on YouTube.

I Love the World [Wikipedia]

Listen to it a couple times, and you’ll be humming the tune the whole day .. LOL!

Time flies .. end of September already. And I’d like to say Happy Eid ul-Fitr to those who celebrate. :)
If we were back in Indonesia, we would’ve had ketupat and all of those other great food by now. I miss those food!!

The First Day of Autumn has come and gone. It is now officially the Fall season .. and the leaves are changing.

Autumn is coming

Keep an eye on my flickr set for pics … of anything. Apparently it gets updated more often … LOL!
Hmmm … I should do some more thinking about this site .. maybe I’ll convert it to become more like a photoblog.

Why does today feel like Friday? :P

8-8-8

People say it’s supposed to be a very lucky day today (just like last year’s 7-7-7).

What did I do? Not much.

What did the world do? Most of them probably watched the opening ceremony of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Go Indonesia!!! Go Canada!!!

This monkey was having fun:

I should be at the Olympics ...

What did you do?
