2017 in review

+

For the past several years, I’ve done a “year in review” blog post, and of course this one is for 2017! It’s a great way to reflect on the events that have happened during the year, and to be honest, is actually a lot of fun!

Finding Idylwild Park

Over 100 years ago, people came from all over Ontario by train to this beautiful park. Little remains of it today.

Futuretech '92

+

The Canadian government flew the top 125 students out to Calgary for Canada's 125th anniversary. I was one of them.

Here's what happened this year!

10 years of Facebook humour

+

As I was searching around my Facebook settings the other day, I noticed that there was a section that allows you to download your whole Facebook archive of posts and pictures. So I did that and noticed that I’ve posted some pretty funny stuff since I joined in 2007.

Video Game Reflections

+

I’m currently covering an “Introduction to the Game Industry” course for a fellow colleague of mine this week, and it occurred to me that I’ve been playing video games since the very early days of video games. In fact, my generation was the first to grow up with them. So, I thought it’d be fun to get my own video game history down on paper (or in this case, a blog post).

Yes, I actually did stuff this year...
