Vancouver This Summer – The night of lightning, fireworks, and an orange sky.
The Face Behind The Blog

Coincidental Reality
My name is Pippa.
I am a communications student, a political science graduate, a self-professed nerd, science fiction enthusiast, blogger, writer, feminist, book reviewer, photographer, etc.
Last year, in 2010, I read and reviewed 52 books. Take a look at my reviews, and see if you find something new.
This year I will continue to review books, but not as often. I will also be reviewing movies and television shows, as well as talking about life in a new city - Vancouver, BC - and my continuing adventures in university.
Feel free to stick around, read a bit, comment a bit, link a bit, share your thoughts, and make book suggestions.
I look forward to talking with you!

Was the floor wet? I’m asking because of the reflections.
yeah it was – it had been raining for a while before I took the picture, and the sky had turned everything so many different colours.
It only makes the photo look better
thank you
That night was so surreal. I spent it still on a rooftop patio watching lightening and the sky changing colours. In retrospect, probably not the most safe thing in the world, but it was awesome all the same.
I was also on a roof for a lot of it
We came out of a movie and the sky was bright orange & purple – so crazy – then we went onto Leah’s roof and watched the lightning & the fireworks that night. Whichever country’s performance was that night it got overshadowed by the lightning for sure.
That night was amazing. I went for pho, walked my friend home, but ended up hanging out on Oak to watch the fireworks.
I couldn’t figure out which part of the sky to watch – the fireworks, or nature’s lightshow. incredible.
How are you? Still in Vancouver I assume? What’s new?
Still in Vancouver, getting started on second degree soon, and meanwhile ending up with a lot of shoes…. thanks to a staff discount. So I think that means I’m doing well.
What’s going on with you? From what I follow you are back in Victoria, but making the odd trip over here?
