Chuckang's 2007 Blog - 1y Law

I actually find the opening quote a bit too extreme, but I am too pressed for time these days to find a better quote... Anyway, I thought I'd post some photos from my summer, like I always seem to do on this blog (^-^).

First of all, a blog template note: I realize now that the template I 'borrowed' and altered does not allow me to see the names behind comments. In other words, I can't see who commented on my last post or this post either, so if you could remember to put your name IN the comment itself, that'd be great :)

Anyways, I just downloaded Picasa2, so I've been tinkering with it a little in my spare time. I was pretty impressed with how easy it was to make decent looking photo collages - you just pick the photos you want and click 'create'. Google is definitely gonna take over the world one of these days...



The first collage is made from photos of my Mediterranean Cruise in August. Places we hit included Italy, Portugal, Monaco, Spain, France and England. I'd have to say my favorite city was Barcelona, Spain, because of the shopping and the architecture of the city. Of course, the most exciting point of the trip was when I got the acceptance e-mail from UVic :)

The second collage is of my newest cousin (that makes 15), who has probably tripled the number of hits for my uncle's blog. Everyone calls her 'boo', although her real name is Matia Chen. It's so easy to call her 'boo', but I'm sure she'll want a new nickname once she becomes a little more cognizant. My baby shower gift was the ipod onesie she's wearing in one of the photos - Steve Jobs should be quick to realize the marketing potential of a chubby little Chinese baby (^___^).

Well that's all for now - it's time to start going into overdrive if I'm to survive until December (o__O).
