Last July I spent a few days hanging out in downtown Toronto, and went into HMV. Now I usually never buy music from HMV because of their relatively high prices, but I was sure there must have been some local music that I wouldn’t have been able to find elsewhere.

Another really late post, but..oh well.

A quite round up on events in June:

• Finished up my courses from Berkleeonline, Boston’s Berklee School of Music’s extension school. Learnt lots and can’t wait to actually use what I’ve picked up
• Our swimming pool at the company re-opened after 2 months of renovation. This means I don’t have to helplessly continue to pack on the weight.
• Shanghai’s beloved Xiangyang Market has been permanently closed down from it’s infamous location on HuaiHai Road. No more centralized location to get your fake merchandise

Canada, Happy Birthday! To help celebrate CBC’s posted some recommended Canadian Music Content

However, being that I was wasted from some homework and a busy schedule, I spent it chattin’ it up with some family and homies back home. All in all, a very restful weekend.

I remember a story during high school of kidnapping/hostage taking by students that were unfortunately not bright enough to think of anywhere else to stake territory inside an underground parking lot. Don’t know if it was absolutely true, but with so many places to go, I figure they could have chosen a place with at least 2 exits…
