Skydiving @ Parachute School of Toronto

I finally did it. I jumped out of an airplane at 3,000 feet on Saturday at the Parachute School of Toronto! Here’s how the day went…

“…Injured, Crippled or Killed…”

This was probably the scariest part of the day. We had to sign our names about 12 times on death waivers forms that [...]

Good Customer Service or…

…did she want me?

While I was away in Sweden, my Canadian SIM card got lost so I had to buy a new one. On Saturday morning I went to the Roger’s boutique and asked how much a new SIM was. The girl told me it was $25 and she could activate it on [...]

"Ummm…Are You Finished?"

This afternoon I wrote the GSM networks exam that I was slightly really worried about. The exam was scheduled for 09:00 this morning. I started studying yesterday, but was concerned because although I had previous exams to practice with, I didn’t have the solutions!

Around midnight I was speaking to one of my classmates who informed [...]

Goodbye V…

I was right. I did make a mistake. I’m single again. I’m sad about that for now, but give me a few days and I should be fine (hopefully.).

On Saturday morning I found out that V has been cheating on me since last week with one of her work colleagues. No further questions please.

Yes, I’m [...]

Coincidence…?

Today in my Swedish class we were learning different verbs. The prof. was putting pictures up of people doing things like reading, writing, talking on the phone, watching TV, etc. and she would tell us what they were doing. There were about 20 pictures and one of the pictures had a guy playing the guitar.

"On se calme les ponpons!"

English: “Hold your horses goddammit!!” I first heard this French expression [which, I think is hilarious!] a few weeks ago from someone I’ve been hanging around with quite a bit lately.

Today, while I was on the bus, an extremely rude woman got on with her baby carriage and was trying to shove her way through. [...]

I Don't Believe in Coincidence

Everything that happens in one’s life (good OR bad) happens for a reason; it has a purpose. Sometimes you might not know the reason for months, years or possibly even in your lifetime, but trust me, there is one.

Based on this, why bother being discouraged or down when “bad” things happen?

Why Do You Need a Camera Phone?

Alternate Title: “Look! It’s Colonel Sanders!”

There are much more interesting conversations going on about Lakshman Kadirgamar in the Sri Lankan blogosphere – one discussing conspiracy theories and another discussing how lots of people immediately blamed the LTTE. I actually was brave and decided to put my 2 cents into that political discussion because someone mentioned: [...]

I'm Not Going to Sweden…

…well, not for now!

I was extremely pleased to hear that KTH has graciously offered to (once AGAIN) defer my acceptance to the Spring 2006 semester. Which means that you will all be privileged to have my presence in Canada for another 4 months! No, but in all seriousness…there have been a [...]

"I Know Why You're Here"

*Transcribed*

Do you believe there’s more than meets the eye? Do you believe in a spirit world we can’t see? I definitely do. I’ve always said I believe in God and spirits etc., because I have seen a few things first hand. Sri Lanka is known for witchcraft and such things. Here’s [...]
