A new exhibition "Monet to Dali" consisting more than 60 drawings
and sculptures that demonstrate key examples from the European
modernist movement will start from June 11 for three months in
Vancouver Art Gallery.

This exhibition will showcase important works by Manet, Monet,
Cézanne, van Gogh, Rodin, Picasso, Dalí and other renowned artists
most of which drawn from the Cleveland Museum of Art. Together, the
works in this stellar collection illuminate the breadth of creativity in
one of the most extraordinary epochs in the history of Western art.

Northwest Territories

My roommate Don Pyper, on his 2 weeks Canoe trip to the Northwest Territories in the photo,
is a very inspiring spirit who always puts his groceries loosely in the fridge without
bags since he sees potato, orange pepper, tomato, basil, mushroom, and etc that he would
consume everyday to keep his body going as organic forms that are most natural and beautiful just by themselves. They don't go well with
the chemically made, mass-produced plastic bags.

Secrets of a Successful Marriage

wanted to jot down the quote heard just now from Lisa

"...u can't trick someone into loving you. There's a reason
two people come together and stay together- there's
something they give each other that nobody else can give
to them. If you wanna get Mom back, you'll just have to
remember what you give her that no one else can. "

Homer: "I'll pay you forty dollars if you think of it for me."

阿Ben

for an engineer, this guy knows heck a lot about

history, politics, and various social affairs. A random chat with him,

I usually get to learn something new, including the fact that

the former governor general of Canada, Adrienne Clarkson,

is 台山人 like him. I used to misbelieve those chinese men in the meat section of

ottawa's 168 chinese grocery store spoke Vietnamese, but only later

did I found out it's actually a 台山話. 一種很像越南話的廣東話.

Gastown

Gas town is a historical spot that most tour groups would stop by when

they visit Vancouver. Its landmark is an antique clock that emits smoke

and chimes at every full hour, which when happens, tourists would stare

at it with amazements and sometimes even clap at it. Gas town is also

geologically very close to the troubled Downtown East Side (DTES) in which

most homeless people, prostitutions, drug addicts, and poverty of the city

concentrate.

Lovely Canoeing & Hiking Trip

thank you, j & n, for taking me to this lovely trip/adventure in which I have learned how amazing it was to feel like being an integral part of the mother nature, to feel like being a part of the anciently spiritful forest, and to feel like being a part of the beautifully calming, crystal-like water. you guys were lovely company to have in a trip that requires intimate contact with the nature in that you don't mind getting your hands and shoes dirty and messed up as long as you get to taste the freshness of the breathe of the most primitive forest, to see the graceful trajectory of an eagle soaring high over us, and to put the wooden sign of your beloved club name on the big white rocks by the waterfall, which is also our hiking destination, so that it might make a meaningful enough photograph.

that was a great trip and fulfilling experience, thank you.

her beautiful love and tender heart

Went to Mrs. Pang's yesterday and she gave me tons of freshly picked flowers

from her backyard as well as a grey vase, cuz i told her that she is giving me

more flowers than the number of vessels, glasses, mugs, beer cans,

wine bottles, and whatever else that can be used to hold them in my house.

And this is the new haircut she just recently got from one of her past student.

She jokingly told me she was feeling quite unsure when she sat down inhe salon where

the student works cuz he has only one year's experience. However, I know by

heart that even if this student has no experience or whatsoever but a passion

and dream for becoming a hair stylist, Mrs. Pang would have asked him already for a hair cut.

Indeed, she is truly a god-sent, for everyone of her stuents, old or new,

and yes, including me.
