Disney Love.

Try defining your childhood by a pop culture reference.

Without hesitation I would define mine by Disney classics. I think I've figured out Disney's secret method to the madness:
Take one part amazing sing along-songs
one part love story
one part talking animals
one part adult jokes (this part is small enough to be ignored by the youngest, big enough to entertain the adults and then make the kids old enough to understand them feel cool) win win win.
Then take all the parts and squeeze it into a white bulky plastic VHS case. WIN.

So I recent obtained my childhood collection of VHS Disney movies. I plan to watch them all.

Disney Movies I've watched recently

• Peter Pan
• Pocahontas 
• Aristocats
• Aladdin
• Aladdin: King of Thieves
• Cinderella
• 101 Dalmations
• The Rescuers
• The Jungle Book
• Beauty and the Beast
• Hercules 
• Snow White
• The Little Mermaid
• Sword in the Stone

Korean Walnut Cake Love.

I was recently introduced to Korean walnut cake. Just west of me is Korea Town, and since moving to my new apartment, Korea Town and I have really hit it off. We are still in our honeymoon faze, I know, but really it's like they took all the great things about China Town and left out the horrible overcrowding, terrible smell, rotting produce and questionable animals hanging in the window.

I love lists so here we go:
1. Walnut cake - these things are delicious! you get 6 for $1.50 at Hodo Kwaja. I'm pretty you can only find this place by looking in the window because no signs in Korea Town are in english.
2. No english? Authentic stuff? Maybe.. but more importantly everywhere has pictures! And really who rather read and speak then look and point.
3. Karaoke bars - there are two that I know of in Korean Town and I haven't been to one yet but I can't effing wait!
4. Cheap quality produce from independent grocers. With tofu! These little places make China Town look like a cheap hooker.

Introducing: The "List"

This is a List I made last August before I knew I was going back to school. All the great books I want to read and all the movie's I haven't got around to watching. Of course once I went back to school in September my list got delayed. Well now school is almost finished so the list is BACK. Here's my amazing list and as you can see I checked a few items off. (click on the list to see it BIGGER)

Since I am leaving Toronto in September for exchange to Edinburgh, Scotland for 9 months (more on this to come) I have a deadline. Can I finish the list in four and a half months?
