Toronto

My brother two weekends ago participated in Saskatchewan's provincial championship game in the under 16 premier group. They won the game two nothing and for nationals they are invited to play in Toronto. I am sitting on the fence right now about going because it is expensive and is during the school year. The plan may be that a couple of hello saskatoon members are going, so this could be a lot of fun. I will let everyone know the plans if I choose to go with my family and friends.

Goodbye Calgary/Red Deer

My trip had gone as planned, I spent the majority of time with my family. Amazing food including: traditional chinese food, ribs, lobster and fish tacos. In our spare time we shopped, played basketball (I am worse than I thought I was), batting cages, arcade and seeing Inception.

When I was in Calgary Aashna and I saw Drake perform. We were in line outside for approximately two and a half hours. When we got in we realized there was no seating and it was way too hot. The crowd was very diverse and like usual everyone was spilling drinks on me. Overall Drake was good live, better at singing than I thought he would be.

We also did a bit of shopping, my favorite stop was Livestock where I purchased a Reigning Champ hood. Livestock is always cool because the guys there are knowledgable and welcoming. Cross Iron Mills was also new to me, it had a variety of stores that paid interest to everyone.

Lastly I received the Nissan Maxima, it is a lot more luxurious and fun than my Civic. I plan to show everyone photos when I get the chance.

New Computer!

Today I stood in line at Best Buy to accompany my girlfriend in buying a HP netbook. At an amazing deal, I got sucked into buying one as well. for 200$ you can't go wrong! I was thinking about using it for school, so if I love it enough, I will keep it. Setting up everything now and giving it a try, it definitely looks like a keeper. Really pumped to have it, and to me, a very good investment.

Taste of Saskatchewan

It's that time of year again where Saskatoon starts bumping with festivals. Always to come first is the Taste of Saskatchewan. The Taste of Saskatchewan has made a lot of noise this week. If you have never been, it takes place along the river. It has a large selection of foods and drinks. I didn't eat anything but the environment was busier than ever. Saw a lot of people I knew, hung out with the family and some friends along the river. Food is generally the same as last year but I recommend everyone to do the fish tacos at Avocados. This isn't lasting much longer so get your homies or your girls together and experience some good food.

Resident Evil 5

Whenever Dallas and I don't have plans made we choose to game. Today after researching top cooperative games on PS3 we found Resident Evil 5. This is funny because we started the second one at the beginning of the year and never finished it, because it was both hard and I got freaked out when arms grabbed me through walls. We played for a couple of hours today, and I recommend people to try this game out if they enjoy a good story and a lot of action. We aren't the most tactical or brave but the game is a lot of fun and was definitely worth it's $25 at Hi-Tech Game Traders.

Inception




I saw this movie on friday with little expectations. It was directed by Christopher Nolan, director of Dark Knight but way less hype. After watching it I can say that it is easily on par with the Dark Knight, perhaps even surpassing it in my eyes. Inception is one of those movies that grasps your attention from the get go, holding it until the end credits roll. The main concept behind the movie is the ability to extract and plant(incept) information/ideas through dreams. Due to the complexity of the story I am unable to go into great detail without spewing paragraphs upon paragraphs. What I can tell you is that it's worth the 10 bones and a bucket of popcorn. So grab your girl/friends/family and go see it, you won't regret it.

Maxima

So it comes to a conclusion, I am coming home with a Nissan Maxima next week from Red Deer. Super excited for the car because it is an upgrade on the Civic in terms of power windows, locks, engine and is more luxurious. Although I will miss the Civic's adventures and standard transmission this trade off will be well worth it.
