The ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars […] I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till I drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I [have] nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion.” 
- Jack Kerouac


A little bit about me:
I’m a Winnipegger on a mission- for what? I haven’t decided yet.  
I finished my bachelor of Environmental Design at the University of Manitoba (specializing in landscape architecture) in May of ‘09, and now I’m taking a temporary break from school until I return for my masters.  I am hoping to study either architecture or landscape architecture.

I am Female, aged 24, Canadian; though if you wanna get technical I guess I’m half Swiss, half French.

&lt;p&gt;I love a good home innovation.  No more looking around for that USB wall adaptor.  This is a godsend for anyone who’s purchased a phone in the past 2 years… also if you’re like me you have 2 or 3 USB adaptors and can never find any of them.  It’s 10 dollars and doesn’t ship until next year… which is unfortunate, because I can think of 3 places in my apartment that could use them, and I would get them as gifts for literally everyone on my list.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s a story I haven’t posted yet:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I’m travelling, I always want to push on a little further. Just one more block, just one more corner, just one more metro stop. I’m not really interested in seeing any particular thing; I just want to get a sense of the city. There is so much spectacular ordinariness that people overlook. Landmarks are great too, but they should be used as navigation tools in addition to postcard backdrops.&lt;/p&gt;
