First Christmas without Papa J

It surely is different without him. His shuffling around the house to the dinning room table. The over sized knitted sweater that he would be wearing because he's a little cold. The slow and pressuring trek that he would have to make up the stairs after breakfast to open the presents. The "Oh - Thank You" of his voice. I know he's surely watching from above and missing the delicious foods. Happy we're all celebrating together.

This little camera was one I was eyeing for a while as I thought it could be one the ways we can have a Polaroid guestbook? where guests take pics of themselves and sign under it. I would have to buy a lot of film though. But this is a neat toy. It reminds me of the joy cam I used to once have.

I don't know if it's worth going every year to. Maybe some people do it as a tradition. It was nice to be first time visit to Festival of lights. Everything is so pretty and it was neat to see the creativity of those who designed the lights. I was impressed with the water bottle tulips.  Alright while I was walking around the park, I see lit up mushrooms, and another mushroom and then when I saw the larger mushroom in this photo I said... OH LOOK! JELLY FISH! Please don't ask my why I said out of the mushrooms I saw before....that I assumed the one that we came up was a jellyfish. Perhaps it was the thicker strand of lights around it's rim and then the squiggle strand beneath it. Boyfriend has become accustomed to my unique thinking patterns. Th

First stop is the Vancouver art gallery to see the forbidden city exhibit. Spoiled by ROM and the MET... and watching other documentaries have spoiled my pure curiosity and WOW factor of this exhibit. The problems of self-educating. Still beautiful to see though and interesting. I love the different ways artists are pushing Asian artwork that was being shown on the second level. The art piece that seemed like a giant watercolour painting was created through shadows and objects behind it lit up by florescent lighting.

But there is this one mysterious piece I don't know where it should go. Where does the black box go?! I had to alter/add to the design that I got as it was missing some features of the Up house. You can find this design I got:  Up House The template they have doesn't match the following GIF, so I added windows myself to my design and you can do so too.

My giant purse decided to spit the multitool out @thinkvik pick it up anytime
