Out of the blue, my daughter asked me “Would you marry mommy again?”

Who says you need a laptop for extra storage when traveling? Just take your Samsung Galaxy Tab and this storage adapter and you are set. It works with SD cards and external hard drive too (I haven’t tested that). I bought it from Amazon.com for $11

We all have a choice on what to eat for lunch.

Watching football in the emergency room. This sucks!

Carmela’s two favorite TV series, The Secret Circle and The Vampire Diaries. She can’t quite figure out yet if she’s a witch or a vampire.

I got my Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM lens last month from Amazon.com. I fell in love with some of the pictures I saw online that’s why I picked it instead of the more expensive Nikon 17-55mm f/2.8. With my initial review, I really thought I received a good copy. Then I started taking pictures with this lens. From the first few photos I took, I knew there was already something wrong with it. It wasn’t focusing correctly and the photos looked underexposed by at least one stop.

Carmela, working on her coloring book while listening to James Ingram on her iTouch. Hmmm…

Just finished session 2 of my 10K running program. I can’t believe I’m actually doing this and with passion too! The question is, for how long? hehehe

Why on earth am I chasing bug today that’s not even mine!? Back to my own…

Finally, a helmet mount that works for my Contour HD! Awesome! I can definitely use this for my bicycle helmet and motorcycle helmet. It can rotate 360 degrees and tilt side to side on a 180 degree plane. That means I can pretty much cover anything I want on a helmet point of view. I can shoot the front road, the guy riding behind me or the rider next to me. This maybe a helmet mount but I can see it being mounted on other locations of a motorcycle too like the side fairings, the front fender or maybe the pillion cover.

going for another run

To fulfill my goals this year of running the marathon and duathlon, I had to jump back in to running again. The last time I ran was a year ago. My wife recommended a droid app which is called Couch to 5K by RunDouble. It’s basically a training program for running. It offers running plans from “Couch to 5K” to Half Marathon.

The day is getting boring. I should run outside.

Thank you for you bravery Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I can freely live my life in this country of dreams.

Took the kids out to Hellyer Park so they can ride their bikes and enjoy the birds and ducks on the lake.
