XXV

Another year older, another wiser, right? I'm not so sure! I'm a year older but more importantly I've had a year to build connections, meet new friends, and enjoy my hobbies. That's not to say that life has been pretty easy. Balancing full time employment with going back to school has been a struggle, but as people say, "you're young, you can handle it".

For my birthday, friends and family of TT Automotive made it out to have dinner at Dorinku, a popular izakaya style Japanese eatery. I've been a few times already, but never say no to the food there! I also almost never take food photos, but made an exception and took a few shots of some of our food.

Wild Pressed Salmon Sushi

Assorted Sashimi

Hell's Chicken, from the special menu. The first few bites were not spicy at all but if you give it time to linger in your mouth, the spice is unreal. Super hot!

We also headed over to Snowy Dessert to cool our tongues off. Mango and Watermelon Bingsu!

No blog would be complete without a car photo. The front lip was recently paint protected at @blackoutautotinting and I purchased an EZ Lip and installed it as well since I've already scraped the lip twice...

I also stopped by the University to capture this photo. 2 years ago when I first really became interested in photography I took a photo of my stock Camry (above). Compared to how the car currently sits (below), there's certainly a big difference!

Now it's time for final exams and then some breathing room in May, where I'll have time to visit Portland and the Calgary Driven Show!

Cheers,
Gary
