Man! Time flies when you’re having fun, huh? I’ve officially been in the US for 3 years, 9 days and much has happened in that time. I can’t believe it’s been three years. It seems like just yesterday we touched down in Lexington and made a stop a Taco Bell some 20 minutes later! LOL! Continue reading
In today’s multimedia, highly connected, global community we are all too aware of a number of competing world views. At their core’s, they are almost all founded upon some kind of religious pretext. Christianity. Hinduism. Islam. Judaism. Each of these religions offer a completely different view of the world we live in and each offers a completely different context to almost every aspect of life. So, the question becomes, is it truly possible to have meaningful conversations and interactions between these competing world views? Continue reading

I am not a fan of change. Never have been. Never will be. The worst part about change is the uncertainty that comes with it. For reasons that need not be explained here, my childhood was fairly unstable. I believe I went something along the line of seven, or eight Primary Schools (Grade schools to you US natives). With each one, came a new set of friends. A new set of teachers. New surroundings. Continue reading

Last night I was up late watching some late night comedy. After that was done, I found a documentary that was directed by Jamie Kennedy. Yes, that Jamie Kennedy. As it turns out, Mr. Kennedy has suffered from severe depression due to the criticisms he received on his movie, Son of the Mask. Continue reading
For the first time in a number of years, I took a REAL vacation. Jaime, Jennifer’s sister, and her family (Stevie, Christopher, Matthew, Hayley and Emily) had booked themselves in for a vacation to Myrtle Beach, SC. Cindy, Jennifer’s mum, and her husband, Greg, had decided to go as well and wanted Lilyana to go as well so she could experience the beach for the first time. So, naturally, if she wanted Lily to go – we got to go too! YAY! Continue reading
It’s official! I am a US Permanent Resident!
For those not in the know, I had what was known as Conditional Permanent Residence status. The conditional part was due to being married to Jennifer for less than 2 years BEFORE we migrated to the US. The conditions of the my residency were that I was to remain married to Jennifer for two years and share in the responsibilities of the household in that time, to prove that our marriage was real and that I was not going to be a drain on the US resources. Obviously, proving our marriage was important to show that I didn’t want to just gain residency or citizenship, then cut and run! Continue reading
I was flipping through some channels tonight and stumbled across a show I’d been wanting to watch for a little while. The show is called Penn & Teller’s Bulls***.
