My Life Adventures and Thoughts

A Great Photographer in Montreal

Readers,

It’s with great pleasure that I introduce you to my favourite photographer, Mojtaba at Montreal Moments. He put careful time and attention to my photographic needs. And its time that I put some careful time and attention in recognizing his great work on my blog!

All the photos for my CD and website were taken by him. To get the perfect shot, he went above and beyond. Incessant snapping in many angles. He had no shortage of creative ideas, and as a result, there was no shortage of good photos. It was clear that photography was his passion. Add to this that he was super friendly and made me feel comfortable, which is super important as your mood can come through the photos. The session was a lot of fun, and I look forward to working with him in the near future.

Montreal has a great photographer available!

“Are There Parallel Universes?” – Cool Documentary I Saw

I watched, “Are There Parallel Universes?” from the “Through The Wormhole” series.

It was interesting. Profound even, had I understood 80% of what they were talking about.

Sometimes I understood an idea, then they added to that idea, then I forgot the logic of the first idea and couldn’t understand the second idea, then I had to rewind! Then I wikipedia’d it. But still no follow! Even the scientists admit that some of the ideas were too complicated for them.

One theory I found interesting was the one about all possibilities existing in different dimensions/universes. I can’t even put my mind around that! There are infinite combinations of atoms. Statistics say that combination of atoms also repeat. So technically, there is a repeat combination of atoms that make up who I am somewhere out there.

You can check the documentary out on YouTube, or watch it here. And check out all the other documentaries from “Through The Wormhole”. I can’t wait to go through them all! Though I will certainly have to watch it more than a few times to get it all. Sometimes it’s nice to warp outside our suspiciously rigid world!

 

Drinking in Public… in Canada!

I’ve ran into a few people from France who casually take a swig of alcohol in public. Yikes! Do I have to really ruin the party and tell them it’s not allowed before someone else does and takes them to jail!?

Today I warned a guy in the subway not to drink his wine in the subway, no matter how fancy.

“Not outside man!”

“But we are in the subway!”

“But it’s public!”

“I’m not actually drinking any of it. This is really good wine! Do you want some?”

He began to explain just how fine the wine is before he left the metro. He even gladly presented the bottle for this blog.

I hope he finished it sans problems. I wish I could freely do whatever I want without a worry, stress, anxiety and constantly having to look around!

So, a word of advice to my European readers: put it in a plastic bag or a flask so you won’t get hassled!

Drinking fancy red wine in the metro!

Soup Party!

Every week my friend hosts a soup party. I must say it’s a great way to deal with the odds and ends in our kitchen!

It has become a weekly tradition and a sort of glue to keep a circle of cool people together.

Think of it as a pot luck but more casual and more spice. You really never know what your going to eat and there is no real preparation required!
