About

Hi, I'm Christine. I just completed a masters degree in English Studies after slogging through the last 6 months researching and writing my dissertation on Asian Canadian literature. Now I'm contemplating future directions while I take a breather from study and continue to enjoy my work as a language teacher.

Looking for something specific?

 
Bliss — a-second-by-second joy and gratitude at the gift of being alive, conscious — lies on the other side of crushing, crushing boredom. Pay close attention to the most tedious thing you can find (Tax Returns, Televised Golf) and, in waves, a boredom like you’ve never known will wash over you and just about kill you. Ride these out, and it’s like stepping from black and white into color. Like water after days in the desert. Instant bliss in every atom.
