Love these flats!!

Mmmmmmm lunchables.

JUMPING PICTURE!!

I was totally channeling Krista when I did this, she always takes the best jumping pictures.

Chinatown in Winnipeg basically consists of an apartment block and some office buildings in a Chinese-style theme, as well as this large open area with stairs (that I'm standing at the top of) and a large open area near pagodas and a pond that currently has no water. My dad used to drive me to work before I became an independent adult and there are old Asians that do Tai Chi here before beginning their day.

This is my shitty re-creation of what I saw on those serene and super-cool mornings.It occurs to me that despite mentioning him (and his intense cooking prowess) a few times here and making obvious light of the fact that I made him play photographer for me all day I've never actually shown you guys what Ty looks like.

I guess I'm a bit nervous about it, see the old post I did in reference to this subject.
Oh well.

Blogosphere, meet Ty: He's nice to look at, I know.
He also cooks and is super creative and neat and other stuff.
Expect to see more of him, I guess.

There, now that's over with.Oh right, back to Chinatown.
Here's our one Chinese-themed bridge.
Woot! I'm a huge fan of Chinese dragons.
See how Chinese our Chinatown is? Lanterns and everythin'.

On the way to the Asian market to get dinner essentials we stopped off at Mitchell's Fabrics for ideas on some cute projects he and I have been scheming over. I want a DCB so bad right now.
440 calories and 207 of those from pure grease.
Wow.
I suddenly feel so vindicated by having soup for dinner.Ty discovers Howard Moon-esque fabric.Oh hai flats! I almost forgot how fucking cute you are.I really want a sewing machine, preferably the variety that come inside a wicked old desk and are rigged for electricity because I have weak ankles and couldn't use that intense foot pedal for long.There's a few years between us and Ty has been partying for much longer than I have but his excitement over this horrible fur is still not vindicated.
He said it reminds him of "old times".
... Oye."They go all the way from deep profound muffin through the angry beige right out there to a very aggressive nutmeg"
Our outings are rife with Boosh quotes.We hit up an Asian market where I discovered all sorts of interesting things like vegetables I never knew existed, guys with flower faces giving intense thumbs-up to dumplings, and parrot fish.
What the fuck is UP with that fish?!?!?

We also bought fun drinks to try and I'm happy to report they were a great success.True story.Oh yeah, I forgot this happened.
I uhm... carried a lychee out in my pocket to try.
What?!
It was just one.
SO TASTY!

Then dinner happened, though not as fancy as we would have liked because we forgot to go to Safeway before it closed.But I still totally approve of Ty making me home-made sushi anyway.
Yum!!

Eugh I have a test right away that I am in no way prepared for; no matter how much I study once the subject has anything to do with science I can't maintain a grasp on it. It's easy shit, just anatomy of the brain, what does what and where, but I've been cramming for the last few days and it's just not sticking.

Thank god I'm at the top of my class anyway, I guess.
