My Awakening – Dear BHD…
The numerous challenges and changes that seemed overbearing weren’t without reason. When you log on to BHD you are witnessing my growth, which is essentially how BHD came to be. I figured if I kept writing I would get over my then heartbreak and post by post my laptop and wordpress would nurture me into...
Beyond the 20s.
Well, that’s it. It’s over. Tomorrow, I will be leaving behind the care-free attitude of my youth. I am way past my physical peak. My memory is sure to start failing me and I will probably begin drifting off mid-sent… Ok, that may be a little over the top. But afford me some courtesy, I...
In One Year, Out The Other
Welcome to the New Year. A fairly arbitrary date, if you really think about it, especially from a physical perspective, since nothing is different than the day before or after. Still, mentally, January 1st is a famous time for “fresh starts”. While the numerical year changes, our perception allows us to wipe the slate clean....
BHDude: Movember; Is It Over Yet?
Thank god it’s for a good cause because this thing is driving me crazy. Of course, I say that with genuine sincerity. This trip through Movember has been fun. Little things, like using it to ponder something diabolical does provide amusement. Still, it’s exhausting. Not so much physically, although maintenance of this stache is probably the...
BHDude: Julian x Movember Moustaches
It’s my first time, and yeah, it’s pretty much as awkward to type as it is to say. Before you go trolling through the depths of your imagination, I’m talking about growing a moustache. The concept is simple really: grow a moustache and hope to collect some donations (shameless plug for my donation page). My...
BHDSeries: Sardegna, Italy
Although this space is normally reserved for new experiences, I thought I’d take a brief moment to talk about just the opposite. Coming from what I like to call a neo-traditional Mediterranean family, rituals and time spent together are of the utmost importance. For a late teen, twenty-something guy, I could not do enough to...
BHDSeries: One Man, One Word: LineUps.
Anyone who has commuted in a car knows the feeling. Merging lanes. The balance between waiting patiently or trying to make a last minute cut-in. In the city, these are generally an afterthought. A few moments lost due to some summer construction. But those who make a regular pilgrimage to the northern buffers of our...
BHDSeries: One Man, One Word: Yes.
BHD says… Change is not easy. Nor is it something many people accept willingly. BHD is taking a peek into the life of a twenty-something guy living in downtown Toronto. We’ll follow him on a journey from his self-proclaimed “apathetic former self” to voyeuristically observe the simple pleasures life can bring. An awakening in a...
