A February Weekend in Toronto

I went to see a play on Friday, Medea. It was interesting since I had never seen a Greek tragedy before. Of course, everyone dies at the end so it's a bit of a bummer.

The weather was positively spring-like this weekend. See, it's melting and there are puddles everywhere...



The weather was even nice Saturday night...



We had a lovely sunset on Sunday. You can see the moon rising as the sun is setting. I took these pictures from my apartment window. :)

Snow and TV Shows

It's been a snowy weekend, so I had fun with my camera!








As far as TV goes, I'm so sad that Pushing Daisies has been cancelled. Now, ABC may not even air the last episodes. Boo, ABC, boo.

On the plus side, there's this new series on CBC on Monday nights (which I've heard will air in the US on SoapNet, but it's totally not a soap) called Being Erica. It's about a girl who gets sent back in time to moments she felt she screwed up to try to fix them or learn from her mistakes. The writing is really good, and I just got sucked into the show. The third episode was on tonight, and it's just so enjoyable. Plus, you get a lot of music from the 90s, which is so cool. The fact that the series is about a single girl in her early 30s living in Toronto and coming home to her cat and kinda of confused about it all might make me identify a tiny bit. ;) Highly recommended.

Chuck and The Office are also very enjoyable this year, and The Daily Show is on fire so I'm pleased as punch.

Oh, to end my post, here's a little cutie. :)

Picture Blog

I finally bought a digital camera over the holidays! Yay! So I had a lot of fun taking pictures...

I love winter, and my hometown is so pretty with the snow all around. I took the next two pictures near my high school. The lake you see at the center in those pics has now become an ice skating rink since they've had enough cold days to ensure the ice is thick enough.





In front of my parents' house, we have a lot of snow. However, by the end of the winter, you usually can't see the door at all from the street.

This is my attempt at a little tree in my apartment:
