Life isn't black and white. It's a million gray areas, don't you find? - Ridley Scott
This blog will act as an attempt to chronicle what is sure to be one of the most ridiculously confusing, interesting and wild years I've ever experienced.

By compiling a series of 365 black and white photos and accompanied text you're invited to follow along the ride of an undergraduate student with severe biophilia. This year will mark a year that I leave the continent, graduate from my Bachelors degree, start graduate studies, try to make heads and tails of life and and search for an elusive tiger beetle.

Feel free to post feedback, ask questions, and give suggestions. Hope that your 2013 is looking to be a wonderful, wonderful year.

44. Birthday Bliss


February 13th was my 22nd Birthday. I celebrated my day with a huge surprise. My girlfriend Sarah came down from Halifax, completely throwing off her schedule to surprise me with a visit and a beautiful gift. When I was in class, she decorated my room with 22 balloons, each with a photo that she scavanged from different places, mostly from different points of my life.

It was the sweetest most wonderful gesture. To top it off, Sarah baked me some beautiful home-made cupcakes, and gave me a copy of Steve Marshall's new book on flies! It was absolutely wonderful. I have the most generous girlfriend in the whole world, she makes me feel so darn appreciated. I would be lying if I said it wasn't a wonderful feeling to feel so loved and appreciated.

The photo today is what I came home to from class.
