From a movie unlikely to be a source of love quotes - Dracula.

I started with LOVE thus, I will continue with love. This is more like a desperate move just to come up with posts for this blog. But really, there is no excuse for such a drought of postings. No excuse at all.So LOVE it is. . .

After my birthday month, comes the LOVE month of course. Actually wanted to post photos of some of the beautiful gifts I received but then I ran out of time.May this be a month full of LOVE!

I can't believe I spent one weekend watching 2 chick flicks on Netflix. I just wanted movies with not much complications and not much thinking required.Favorite lines form chick flick 1 : Love, Actually (Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, all star cast):Sam (8 year old) - What is far worse than the agony of being in love?Karen - True love lasts a lifetime.Karl - Life is full of complications and

I accept, I've had too much break from blogging. And for no reason at all.Anyway, as I turn another year - I make another promise to go back to writing, blogging and chattering. Add to that promise is to take more inspired and breath taking photos. Next is to revisit my bucket list, update my life handbook, and continue my daily life records.The list goes on - which only means I am slowly going

It's been a while since I went out to take photos. Thus one fine Sunday afternoon we dared the Toronto weather (which actually was above normal) and warmed up "the gadget".And true enough, inspiration is just around the corner.Winter is not always drab.Golden sunset silhouetting Toronto skyline.And a beautiful Pickering sunset.Hoping for a more inspiring 2012!

I know I have been remiss in my postings. . . it's like I have hit the lowest of lows. This is a very poor attempt of trying to be up to date.Dec. 20, 2011 - Poster for the office.Dec. 21, 2011 - Trying to raise funds to send to the victims. As I cannot directly ask for help in the office due to some issues - I made a crude poster and posted on the kitchen wall.December 22, 2011 - It was not all

For months (or maybe years) I did not have a cellphone. I just did not see the need. I can always use the home phone, the office phone, the hubby's phone if I want to call anyone. There are even public phones if I really need one anywhere.But the hubby has been insisting I get one. And Virgin Mobile's offer was something I could not resist. Unlimited international texting at a monthly cost I can

The what, why and how of this "unthinkable" ordeal.We have been with the ISP giant ROGERS for more than 5 years. After the Canadian government's mandate to regulate the monopoly, a lot of small ISPs surfaced. One of them was TekSavvy (TS).We switched to TS a few months ago. Before we decided to switch we knew that TS was actually a ROGERS downline. Meaning, TS was using all ROGERS infrastructure

One day an office mate told me about the band Crystal Castles.Crystal Castles are an experimental electronic band from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, consisting of producer Ethan Kath and lyricist and vocalist Alice Glass.Crystal Castles are known for their chaotic live shows and their lo-fi home productions. The duo released many limited EPs between 2006 and 2007, and two eponymous albums in 2008 and

On my workstation wall is a photo of a guy I don't even know. He must be a Toronto Star photographer. I cut his picture and pasted it on my world map. It never fails to be a conversation starter for anyone who comes to visit me.He is there because he is "what I want to be". Confident with his camera, he seems to be enjoying what he is doing.Ahhh...to capture the world through my lens.Just like

So, where do pumpkins go after Halloween? In Toronto, most of them go to Sorauren Park. Not all really, but most do.For several years I have been wanting to go to Sorauren Park on November 1st. In this park, for one more night the pumpkins get a second chance to glow again. On the grassy sides of the narrow park roads, pumpkins line up. I finally had the chance to check out the park the other

A sister’s eulogy for Steve Jobs (by Mona Simpson) I grew up as an only child, with a single mother.

Some books you read and then you go back and read again after so many years. The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupery is one of those books. You see, do, feel or read something and you are reminded of some lines from the book.Here's a part of Chapter 21 which speaks of so much truth."My life is very monotonous," the fox said. "I hunt chickens; men hunt me. All the chickens are just alike,

I am always resistant when it comes to learning new things. Blame it on the limited time I can spare. But photo post editing has always been in my back burner. I am always amazed by the photos I see and the knowledge that a little post editing goes a long way with one's photo.I was content with Photoscape before - but I decided I really have to move on.

Nevertheless, I can say I did enjoy all of them.NOTE : All commentary about the movies below were taken from other sources and not by the author.First, there was Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

Port Credit is a community found at the mouth of the Credit River on the north shore of Lake Ontario, within the southcentral area of the city of Mississauga.Some of the photos I took in this photo walk.

Once declared by National Geographic as one of the best in the world, we did not want to miss it for anything.Double click on any of the photos for better viewing.We were not disappointed with the gorgeous sunset at Grand Bend.

The nearby city of Grand Bend.After the morning drive and stroll, we went back to our yurt. Lunch was grilled fish with tomatoes. Time for some rest.Then off to check out nearby places outside the park. A mere 10 minutes going north and we arrived at Grand Bend. The place had much to offer for my "photographic needs".Subjects like a lighthouse.Abstract Reflections.A Fisherman.Two more

The 14 km long channel of water was so still, it served as a mirror to the fall colors on its side.

We Have Landed.Pinery Provincial Park is around 3 hours away from Toronto. We decided to go Southwest this time after going North for the last 2 fall seasons. Fall in the southwest region of Ontario is quite different in terms of colors. We were still kind of early for the full fall colors but the scenery were still breathtaking.We stayed in Yurt #476 (Riverside Campground, Area 1). Compared to

September was kind of a low month for me in terms of photography. The first weekend started with a camping adventure with friends. There were photo opportunities of course - but that was it. The next two weekends were spent shuffling between movie houses during the Toronto International Film Festival.Then the last weekend was all about home organizing and cleaning. It was a big project but worth

Discovery.Finding out. Detection.Words associated with happiness and elation - but in other times they also can bring sadness and disappointments.Discovering that I have lost an expensive jewelry brings about sadness - however, discovering a few days later that the expensive jewelry was just in one of my boxes is a happy discovery.What about finding out something that I have been suspecting?

TIFF is over and life goes back to normal - hopefully. I have lots of projects in mind, a list of things to do, movies to see and books to read. Life goes on...TIME is free, but it's priceless.

Moving on from documentaries, here are the 3 TIFF 2011 movies I saw last Monday. Really have no time to add my own reviews. All photos and notes taken from the official TIFF site.Roman's Circuit (Chile/Argentina). As a young man, Roberto Roman (Cristián Carvajal) developed groundbreaking theories on memory migration that catapulted him to fame within the field of neuropsychology.

This blog was on hiatus while I camped on the first weekend of September. Then - before I can even write about my latest camping adventure the Toronto International Film Festival came. September is always a busy month for me and the whole family - the next thing I see will be the beautiful colors of fall.Anyway, here's what I've seen so far in the 2011 TIFF.

In my desire to be noticed, to be validated and to have readers, I literally called friends and urged them to check my blog. My posts became the starting point to reconnect with my college friends and former co-workers. From my posts, we continued our chats and e-mails. Dormant relationships were rekindled.Some friends also got inspired to start their own blogs. They got connected to their own "

For me blogging has always been about writing. Writing about anything I have seen, experienced, or dreamed of. I belong to the majority - who blogs just because. My writing has not improved nor my story telling skills - yet, I still blog. My grammar, composition and spelling sometimes needs editing from the hubby. But I persist. For blogs, even one as simple as this with a non-existent audience

This week I am celebrating the birthday week of This Randomness. Hard to believe that I have been in cyberspace for 3 years now (my first post was in August 28, 2008). In a span of 3 years I had 10,000 plus visitors (including my relatives and friends who I begged to read me!) and 655 posts (all non earth shaking, non substantial or non news worthy). But, I am happy! I started this blog with no

Straight north of Kennedy Road or Warden Avenue, one will get to Unionville. This city I have written about for several times. Small but bursting with pretty and colorful shops - you can never be bored in Unionville. Fifth of the series So Near - places to visit within Scarborough and Toronto.

Time for the hubby's favorite go-to place. For him, Edward Gardens and the Toronto Botanical Garden always has something different thus he comes back often. I am pretty sure, it is all because of the flowers. This is Part 4 of my continuing series on So Near - worthwhile places to see within Toronto.

If the hubby has a favorite "so-near" place, I have mine too. The remnants of old Toronto buildings at the Scarborough Guild Inn just does it for me. My go-to place in any weather. Winter Spring Summer Fall So near - just 15 minutes from home - Scarborough Guild Inn. This is Part 3 of my continuing series on So Near - worthwhile places to see within Toronto.

Just south of Kennedy Road and near Kingston Ave. (Scarborough, Ontario) is Rosetta McClain Park. The park has a lot of nooks and crannies conducive to photo shoots. So near and so beautiful. A favorite for wedding photography too - now you know why. This is Part 2 of my continuing series on So Near - worthwhile places to see within Toronto.

Yes, I am guilty! Guilty that we drive farther away from Toronto to enjoy nature. Thus in this series of posts I will focus on some places within Toronto worthy to be admired. No long drive required. In the heart of booming Mississauga is Kariya Park. Officially opened in July 1992, the park honors the eleventh anniversary of the twin-city relationship between Mississauga and Kariya, Japan.

The Smoky Mountains National Park - my reason for going to Tennessee. Laurel Creek - fisherman's heaven and photographer's delight. Picturesque anywhere you look at it. Elevation 5,046 ft at the boundary of North Carolina and Tennessee. Awesome view. Overlooking the scenic mountains is just for everyone. Biker's heaven too!

From Servierville to Pigeon Forge to Gatlinburg the place was teeming with businesses competing for tourist's attention. There were dinner shows, rides, water parks, outlet malls, mini golf areas, and everything else that one may want. Hatfield and McCoy's dinner show inside a barn. Authentic country jokes in here maybe? Here is a something a little bit modern. I have never been inside - but

Cherokee : Native American people formerly inhabiting the southern Appalachian Mountains from the western Carolinas and eastern Tennessee to northern Georgia, with present-day populations in northeast Oklahoma and western North Carolina. Treading Newfound Gap Road and crossing the Tennessee - North Carolina border, this is the Cherokee I saw. They have a mini mall - very much just like us.

The heat is what I always complain about when visiting the south in summer. The place is so hot, humid and dry that one needs to be near the waters to survive. Thus, my first post in this series is about the waters of Tennessee.Cumberland Gap Falls inside the State Park. Actually, this is still in Kentucky. This is a 125 ft wide falls that drops to 60 ft. Known as the "Niagara of the South" this

Any visit to Tobermory is never complete without the sunsets. Yes, they are awesome- yet, there is no way of guessing if you will be lucky. One thing I've learned from these sunsets though is that a sunny nice day is not a guarantee of a beautiful sunset.Taken on August 2010 at the end of Highway 9.July 2, 2011 - Tobermory.June 30, 2011“When I admire the wonder of a sunset orthe beauty of the

Tobermory is all about rocks. And then one wonders why people go there. But it really is. The place is made up of unique rock formations - a result of hundreds of years in geological changes.Water formed rocks of the grotto.Because scenery like this is worth the trip.

The Bruce Peninsula is dotted with several lighthouses. Although they stand now as attractions instead of their function in the past - they are very well worth a visit.Lion's Head Lighthouse.

The road to the Bruce is never boring. The two times we've been there - there is always something new and exciting to see along these roads.Fields of canola plant going all the way to the sides. This one caught our eye because of the white picket fence. Too picturesque to resist.We could not resist this thing either. Not a real house - just almost. Not cardboard or plywood, but made of real

Pizza, anyone?We don't have pizza very often. However, one night we craved for some but were tired of those commercial, overpriced, highly advertised all-dough pizza. We decided to try McCain's from the frozen section of the grocery.I swear it was so good -- I highly recommend them.

A hundred times have I thought New York is a catastrophe, and fifty times : It is a beautiful catastrophe. Le CorbusierI have seen graffiti almost everywhere, yet I find New York city's street art funny, cute, intriguing, beautiful. Maybe it is just me. I love graffiti - in a different kind of way.

I was not excited to watch Billy Elliott when I first saw the ads on paper. I am kind of biased towards other more popular Broadway shows. But because Mirvish Productions had a Canada Day promo, I got tickets.And I was not disappointed. I would like to recommend the show to anybody who loves a triumph story, dancing, and a bit of comedy. No wonder it won 10 Tony Awards in 2009.Elton John's music

This week's featured place is Col. Sam Smith Park which is located at the south most part of Kipling Avenue. The park is known as one of the best birding places in Toronto. We did catch a few birds doing their business on our fist visit to the area.The job must be done for this gull.A female Blackbird feeds her hatchlings.And time to relax for these swallows.

Mahilig akong kumuha nag litrato ng mga punong kahoy na tumba (fallen trees). "Photo worthy" kasi para sa akin ang mga tumbang kahoy ma pa spring man or summer.Ngunit di ko akalain mas maganda pala ang mga tumbang kahoy sa winter, lalo na pag nasa malapit sa lake.Na alala ko kaagad ang sabi ni Ralph Waldo Emerson na "Each moment of the year has its own beauty" ng makita ko ang mga tumbang kahoy

It is said, symmetry is one of photography’s most evocative tools of composition. Simply put, symmetry is achieved when one shape becomes exactly like another if you flip, slide or turn it. There are several types of symmetry such as reflection, rotational, translation and it could even more complicated as mathematics would have it.Here's my take on the "assignment" in symmetry.Rotational

There is always a first time. And even if they are small feats, I will cherish them forever. I am talking about having one of my photos chosen by the Toronto Star Camera Club to be part of their Photos of the Week gallery.The moment I got the e-mail requesting permission to use my photo - I was in cloud 9. I immediately did what needed to be done. YEY and double YEY!So, here is the photo and the

A few times friends ask me something about photography. First things first : I am no authority. My views, thoughts, advise are all based on my own hit-and-miss learning experience. Nevertheless, I am flattered and still give my 2 cents worth.Most Common Question : What camera should I get?My usual answer : It depends on a lot of things.Why do you want a camera? To photograph your kids and family
