Biking around Vancouver and Kits Beach & Movie Review

My first experience on a bike, and it was super fun and exciting!

Loved every moment.

The speed, the wind in my face (and unfortunately my hair which tangled horribly... probably the only moment I did not fancy so much), the view..

Quite exhilarating!

My thanks to Erik for taking the time to take me on a ride :)

Biking around Vancouver & Kits Beach (28th of June, 2008)


Getting suited up!

First, Erik took me up to Cyprus Mountain and stopped by a look-out point.

I got to overlook almost the whole of BC!

It was pretty awesome.

It was at Cyprus that we manage to his the 200km/hr mark!

Craze. But cool.

Soon after, Erik brought me to Horseshoe Bay to have good ol' fashion Fish & Chips.


At the Fish & Chips restaurant.


That's Erik.


Me turn to pose.

Since we were going to the beach later on, well, I brought my humongous ultra pink beach bag to stuff all my stuff in.

I sure did grab a lot of unwanted attention since being on a bike, there is no where to hide a bag like that.

Introducing, the pink octopus:


Felt quite bad that my ultra pink bag was completely crushing Erik's cool factor, haha!

After 2 hours of riding, we were off to the Kits Beach to chill out & I finally got my tan!!

I am significantly darker now :)


Erik and I.



Met up with a few Erik's buddies (no, we didn't get a stranger to take a pic of us) and lay in the sun for a good 2 hours.

After the beach, headed home to wash up and studied up (Midterms were less than a week away from then) then went out for a movie!


Movie Review

Wanted


I know some people think this movie was good and all but I personally thought it was a bust. I mean, there were SOME pretty cool stunts but the plot is so predictable that it just got way too boring. I was able to figure almost every step James McAvoy was going to take and even figured out the bad guy from pretty much the very start. Possibly the only thing I couldn't figure out was where Jolie stood in the movie (which was one of the only semi-anticipated part). The whole narrating bit and certain parts in the movie were so cliché that it gave me unwanted shudders. It was pretty much a no-brainer action movie (similar to Jumper) which isn't really my type of thing. I like no-brainer comedy movies but I don't feel the same for action. Bust!
