Happy Halloween!



We had our halloween party on Friday, costumes, pumpkins, and beer, in our Bentall building. It was my first staff party and I had a great time. I wore a real japanese kimono my sister bought while living in Japan. Seeing that I was already downtown and started drinking at 4PM, I stayed in Vancouver and bar hopped around Van with some co-workers and then on to another bar where I hooked up with some more friends. This was great, never knew working downtown would lead to partying downtown and relying on translink to get me home. Luckily I was able to get a ride home from a friend to avoid sleeping at work, since I worked the next morning anyways. Oh well...


Work hard play hard...

Working in Financial District - Burrard St., Vancouver


Work has been moving along quite smoothly, especially working downtown, no more long commutes or gas expenses, GOT TRANSLINK?



39 minute commutes give me enough time to get a steeped tea and a toffee danish from Tim Horton's on Burrard before starting work. It's STEEPED!

As for working in the Bentall 5 building [www.bentall5.com], its great, and being part of a company that has a rep of one of BC's largest custom managed web hosting franchises Canadian and internationally.

Can't get too comfortable, since I only hopped onto this bandwagon recently, but I am preparing myself for the long haul...

Stay tuned! This blog should get interesting with some photos and links to various sites I have yet to create.
