Feeeel that!

To my dear friends far and near. <3.
May it be oceans or continents apart,
Sometimes at least two transfers away,
Or divided by Terwillegar Drive or Highway 2,
Remember my heart and love is always there.

I've learnt so many lessons about friendship, love, and life from the words of A. A. Milne as narrated through The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together…there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. I'll always be with you.”

I know I’m reaaaaallly late. This show went down last week haha. Anyways, another awesome performance by The Greater Good. One of their best so far! This show featured TGG songs over today’s hottest songs. I have another really long video, but I have yet a place to upload it. Enjoy this snippet and peep more on my flickr to the right.
DJ Pump killed the 1’s and 2’s and everyone rocked out on the dancefloor. It was a great start to a great weekend. We were even blessed with the presence of The Weekend Kids.

Everyone was just there to enjoy the music and have a good fuckin time! To end off the night, 1hundo joined Justeezy and I for our routine parking lot pimpin session.

I hope to see more of these awesome hip hop shows in Edmonton in 2010! =) Some pictures via Philam and 1hundo. Spanx.

Your Song – The Weekend Kids

you know this thing will never die and they’ll keep writing their song about how you’ll never understand how they feel and how different they may seem. but you know we’re all the same because we all have fears. we are insecure. this is your song so hold on. to every word i write. it’s the soundtrack to your life. and i wish that i could write the anthem to help you solve your problems. this is how it goes. they talk as if they know whats best for you but they don’t even care if you’re dead or alive. do the things you want to. don’t let them tell you how. to live your life. don’t be scared to go because we all have fears. we are insecure. this is your song so hold on. to every word i write. it’s the soundtrack to your life. and i wish that i could write the anthem to help you solve your problems. this is how it goes.

Please, if you haven’t checked out The Weekend Kids support the local music scene!

Shanghai Grill

Before writing this review, it needs to be said that reviews of Chinese restaurants are rated with their own criteria because they can’t be compared to any other restaurant. These aren’t fine dining cuisine restaurants. So here we go.

Yet another Shanghai cuisine restaurant in Edmonton. We’ll see how long this one stays alive. In west Edmonton, Shanghai Grill is located in an almost industrial area near the mall. Big, typical, Chinese restaurant. There are lots of tables and generally looks pretty clean. One thing that did shock me was the friendly service; I think many will agree that you lower your expectations on customer service when you eat at a Chinese restaurant. I tried this restaurant out with my girl who has been here before and she had wanted a particular thing off the menu. She wanted the chive pizza pop shown below, but of course, it was on the special, only written in Chinese menu. Both of us could not read it and after deciding on the rest of our choices, we had asked the server to assist us. We explained it to her in English, telling her that it’s some kind of bread that is filled with vegetables with a crispy outside. She drew pictures to help us determine this dish. So after she tells us the name of it in Chinese, we order. She had then finished by pointing to the very last item on the menu (the one that also has English): Turnip Cake. We say its not and she completes our order and goes. A few minutes after she walks back with these fried balls and we knew that was Turnip Cake, but she wanted to confirm anyways! Thanks lady!


These chive and vermicelli filled pizza pops essentially (left) were delicious! If you like the taste of chives and garlic, this ones for you! It was a little oily, but the outside was indeed crispy with a chewy texture. Jam packed with garlicky goodness!
Beside the pizza pops are the fried beef soup dumplings. I have never tried this before but the shell of the dumpling was not too thick but had the right amount of chewyness. The au jus of the beef inside is delicious as always and with the perfect amount of Chiang King ginger vinegar, this is a great alternative to Little Dragon Buns aka Sieu Long Bau.

Little Dragon Buns (shown below), or as some people call Soup Dumplings, are a trademark of Shanghainese cuisine. If you have never eaten one, they are basically dumplings usually with pork and some suey choy with au jus steamed to perfection eaten with vinegar.To me, the quality aka deliciousness of these buns is one of the key components to a great Shanghainese restaurant. Theirs were pretty good, but the soup a bit thick and they did not come out hot enough. You should be scared to bite into the dumpling for you don’t want to burn your tongue with the broth if you don’t eat it “correctly”. Judging the dumplings alone, out of 10, they get a 7. Shortly after these arrived on our table, an observant waitress had taken notice that they had not been touched and came by to remind us that they are best while piping hot. They were hot, but not hot enough.

Overall, food is pretty good; I only got to try a few items, but I would go back, but not soon. It will definitely do the trick if you are craving for some good dumplings.


Sticky rice roll with a sweet filling. You can get both savoury or sweet. I like to compare the sweet one to a Japanese style sticky rice roll for seaweed in there.


Spicy chillies and onions porkchops.

Safety Nets.

Safety nets. We all know what they are. They stop you from going over a cliff most of the time, They also stop you from going out of bounds. Everyone has a comfort zone and these safety nets help you stay within your boundary. In a game of volleyball or snowboarding down a mountain, safety nets usually work in your favour. Safety nets are also stationary and stable.
