Who needs help when you've got the Internet?

Fan of the park? Fan of the city.

Quick series of developments -
  1. I'm official a volunteer with an organization that runs hikes and other outdoor events around Toronto. I'm excited and can't wait to get started. Hopefully this will lead to a more active lifestyle.
  2. I just finished my summer course and biggest thing I took away was how to more effectively use online learning, especially finding a website we can use with my clients. So my goal for the rest of the summer is to get a short package together. It's probably a better use of my time than last summer's creation of a guide to using Excel. 
Also seen all the superhero movies this summer. Here are my one line reviews of them
Iron Man 3 - Once again Marvel takes a surprise turn with their franchise by letting writer/director Shane Black use the large action pieces to tell a humanizing story about Tony Stark. 
Man of Steel - I've seen all the horrible superhero movies (Daredevil, Green Latern, Blade 3, Any Punisher movie) and this one left the worst taste in my mouth because it betrayed the defining characteristic of the hero the most.
The Wolverine - Aside from a bad ending, this was a strong rebound from the previous entry (X-Men Origins: Wolverine) and final X-Men movie that hopefully means the next movie will be good.

Didn't think I was doing watching lots of movies, but it seems like I am. Also recently saw Pacific Rim, This is the End, Fast & Furious 6, Star Trek Into Darkness, and Much Ado About Nothing.
