Leaving and Comming


Goodbye, will be leaving and going home tonight, we have rented a limo to take us to the airport as we have tons of junk, and will need to take 2 taxi cab to carry them all, will take a picture of the limo later it a 4x4 limo, anyway I'm quite pumped to go back home after months of cold and rain, its time to go back to humid and rain :)) I think vancouver is saying goodbye to use because its gloomy and rainy or its just being that way becase it is meant to be lol, will miss the poeple here, the colleagues and also the place were I stayed for months :)

Crackers and Melamine

Today I found out that BFAD banned Sunflower Crackers(blueberry kind) contains melamine, I was alarmed as kids like to eat this type of crackers and parents often let the kids have a pack of this cracker for snack or "merienda" as they are deemed more healthy or safe than having chocolates or chips, anyway the sunflower product that is affected is the Blueberry flavor or the Sunflower Cracker, which I have never tried, but i do like to buy their original Sunflowers crackers. this issue also raise question about the quality of production process and quality check put in by CROLEY FOODS MFG. CORP. makers of Sunflowers food product, in my opinion I wouldn't buy any Croley Food product for the meantime even if their other product tested out negative, as there is a big "what if" question like there are other things in there that isn't being tested, I don't have kids but I wouldn't want any kid getting sick because of crackers, I also feel very dissapointed with Croley as a manufacturing company as Sun Flower have been known for quality in the past, yet they have been irresponsible specially with regards to safety of their product which a lot of kids consume daily.

The Croley Foods products which tested satisfactorily in the CFS examinations were Croley

Foods Sunflower Crackers (Mango Cream Sandwich)
Croley Foods Sunflower Crackers (Chicken Flavor)
Croley Foods Sunflower Crackers (Orange Cream Sandwich)
Croley Foods Sunflower Crackers (Strawberry Cream Sandwich)

List of other banned product with malamine Sunflower isn't included yet - PDF list here

Closer and Closer

Date of my departure is getting close, I'm most certainly excited to go back home probably the only I will miss here is the weather which I like the rest its all the same to me, this is my 5th trip out of the country but this is the longest one I have ever been on a foreign land, its funny as I never thought I will get to go to where I have been or that I would be able to go to places without spending anything and still getting paid, life is good :)

Party and Dancing

Last saturday I attended the 80th birth day party, I never thought that I would be going to a family party when I'm so far away from home, the party was fun and the food was great I was also surprise to find out the one who arrange the party is also the one who is responsible to clean it up, unlike in Manila were everybody has halp to do it for them, anyway thats it for now running late.

Rockbands and Guitar Hero

Today one of my friend decided to buy(pre order) the new Guitar Hero World Tour super bundle, the bundle comes iwth a mic, guitar and a very cool looking drums,and everything would cost $199+tax which would come out almost at $230, he really like this music type of stuff, which I think is just ok or soso, maybe because of my very limited musical ability or just that I don't have anyway rhythm, anyway were going to Gamestop this afternoon after work to pre-order the World Tour, it going to be release on OCT 19.

Think Tank


Image from ugo.com

I'm quite exceited today as I realize that I'm getting closer to going back home, its getting cold here and definitely I don't want to be here when it starts snowing, I also missed my bed, my rooms, my stuff, and my car, anyway I'm thinking of getting an PS3 here, but only if its cheaper that is why I'm looking for pre owend one which I think is still is pretty good, i won't have warranty even I buy a new one here when i get home anyway so why bother with a new one, when after sales suppport doesn't exist right? anyway that its for today I'm leaving office soon its almost 4, BTW I'm also pretty pump about the new Star Trek that Harold guy from Harold and Kumar is there as well as SYLAR!

Tuesday feels like Monday

Work day again after a long weekend, its sunny today but it is still cold and I forgot about that this morning so I feel like a popsicle this morning while walking to work, anyway like teh title said its tuesday but it feel like monday meaning i'm feeling lazy, I'm also thinking of grabbing a PS3 here, it cost 399+tax so that would come out around 21k in PHP, I wonder if its cheaper here that it is in Manila, I also have to consider carrying that thing back to Manila, anyway I was packing my stuff last night and I just realize I can't really buy any more stuff, as one of my bags is almost already full, I also don't think i would be buying anything as I have bought something for the people that has to have something, anyway going to the mall after work just to walk around for a change, been couped up playing games in my room for the whole weekend.

Walking and Malling

Image by - Jonathan Ty

Today its extremely cold when I walk out of the door this morning, the grass was frozen its the first time I have seen it, so I went back into the house and got another jacket today I wore 2 jackets to work, Today I also went to the mall or should I say futureshop but I didn't buy anything basically just looking, also went to London Drugs and bought myself a blood pressure checker, seems like a good deal compared to the ones available at home, today I would say I had a good day, I finish something at work and didn't f*ck anything up :) that is always a good thng in my book.

Work and Career

Image by: Jonathan Ty

Today I heard that my friend was laid off, I wonder if this is related to the American economic meltdown or the company is just not doing well, anyway I don't feel too bad for him I bet he got a very good package anyway :), anyway its another busy day and it getting colder here in Canada and Im really worried that the clothes I brought with me won't be enough to keep me warm, I feel my D**K would just freeze and fall off, hopefully it will get warmer or doen't get any colder in the following weeks , I think we might be going to the mountain this weekend, brrrrrrrr... I hope its not too cold up there.

Nature all Over

Image by - Jonathan Ty

Couple of days ago I visited Central Park in Burnaby during my lunch break, the park is gorgeous and rich in nature, it pretty clear that the park is pretty well taken care off, you can feel being one with nature while walking through the tall trees.
