Half way!

I just landed in Vancouver last night and about to enjoy the second half of my holiday! I have been posting bits and bobs of my trip on Instagram, be sure to get tuned on over there! I did a headcount for my cameras and realized that I have 5 (including the iPhone) with me for this trip!

- Olympus E-PL2

- Wide lens camera by Superheadz

- Fujifilm Instax Mini 7

- Diana Mini (this was a gift from a dear friend in Toronto!)

- iPhone

Not to mention each family member of mine has a camera of their own....

So I will be doing a lot of developing once I head home. And the process of consolidating everyone's materials and picking out pictures to share would be so horrifying! But I can't wait till I see all the pictures on my computer (instead of the work laptop that I'm currently punching into...)!

Look what this little guy was doing while I tried to type stuff up! How adorable :)

For now, I will need to catch up on some blog reading, travel journal writing, book reading and most importantly, chilling with everyone in town!!

Currently listening to....

Payphone by Maroon 5 ft. Wiz Khalifa

Because they're playing it everywhere in Canada!

Toronto at dawn

The perks of being jet lagged is the ability to watch sunrise at 5am :)

Pre-Thursdays!

Perspective dictates your mood, and it all depends on how you look at things. So, for the average white collars out there who dread their workdays, here's a little theory to hopefully get you through the week faster and merrier!

The new workday theory - How renaming things make a difference

By CE

Mondays: Crappy Mondays. Monday blues. Oh-my-gosh-it's-Monday-again. You name it. Very mehhh. You are in your post-weekend state. Productivity: close to zero (unless you're one of those who absolutely love your job and can't wait to go in every single day).

Tuesdays: Oh-what-it's-only-Tuesday? Mehh. It's the second day of the week and the weekend seems lightyears away still...

Wednesdays (traditional): HUMP DAY. Completely stuck in the middle, screaming and kicking inside while trying to catch that little glimpse of the weekend.

Wednesdays (CE): PRE-THURSDAYS!!!! This is where you go: Oh dear it's already pre-Thursday! I'm totally getting a drink after work! (I'm assuming that you ARE getting that drink afterwards!)

Thursdays: Happy hour Thursdays! Yes, this is the night where you grab your nearest (be it physically or emotionally) friends/coworkers and just hang out at a bar, enjoying the cheap happy hour drinks that they offer. Maybe you even get to expand your social circle a little!

Fridays: Full on party Fridays! It's the weekend! Go crazy!!

Saturdays/Sundays: Need I say more?

Seriously, I'm totally enjoying my new Pre-Thursdays. It has been week 2 since I adopted this theory and boy does it make me happy! Does anyone also feel the joy that I get when yucky Tuesdays turn into merry pre-Thursdays when I open my eyes in the morning? Not to mention the uncontrollable grin that quietly creeped up my face!

Hallelujah! A good mood will definitely help boosting up your efficiency and effectiveness too! Win-win! 

Maybe it's really because my holiday starts this Friday. I cannot wait to fly to North America!
