  • Dear Gosh, Mike Isn’t Expired

    Posted on Saturday December 26th, 2009 at 01:11 in Personal

    I know, I knowwwwwwwwwwww. The last update to this blog was mid-October. Unacceptable, for sure. Let’s try to sum up some things so that I can move on to bigger and more important matters. I just finished the most hellish semester of school tha...

  • How I Cherish My Moments of Uncertainty

    Posted on Wednesday August 19th, 2009 at 23:58 in Personal, bike, exploration, summer 2009

    It’s been several times this summer that I got out of work and just had an urge to go out and ride my bike, for as long as I felt like, with no plan of where I was going. Yet again tonight I got that urge. After 6 hours of staring a screen tryi...

  • Music Scene Nostalgia

    Posted on Monday July 27th, 2009 at 20:23 in music, Personal, bands, Nostalgia, music scene, willimantic

    I’ll admit, most of what you listen to on this page is mediocre at best, save for a few. But that remark is made retrospectively and out of context. The music scene you grow up in is the music scene you fall in love with and that influences you...

  • GIV, Three Days In

    Posted on Monday June 22nd, 2009 at 23:49 in Personal, camp, burlington, summer 2009, giv

    Perhaps I had forgotten how draining GIV can be. Monday night now, end of day three with 5 more to go. Really exhausted already, but honestly could live doing this all summer. Possibly the best thing about this year so far is how well everybody is...

  • And I’m Back.

    Posted on Tuesday May 19th, 2009 at 22:02 in music, Personal, Film, summer, classic rock, rest, hangout, emc, qp

    Three weeks since last post, time flies. Honestly though, the past three weeks have been some of the best respite from school I’ve had in about a year. I’m all moved into my new apartment in Winooski. Finally got a double that I’m s...

  • ‘Chanson du Bon Chose’

    Posted on Tuesday April 28th, 2009 at 01:19 in music, love, Personal, Lyrics, the mountain goats, john darnielle

    The great thing about The Mountain Goats is that you can have been listening to John Darnielle’s music for well over a year and still come across tracks that you’ve never heard. Actually, it’s pretty common. I’ve got 338 track...

  • And the Title Was: Preposition

    Posted on Sunday April 12th, 2009 at 00:58 in Personal, spam, puppies, party concert, roll'd you!, yang lim?

    It’s really been so long since an email like this made it to my inbox. But there it was this evening, in my Gmail inbox like any other reponse from a professor or link with puppies from Kyrsten. It made me laugh. Haha, “Barrister Yang Lim...

  • Profound Thoughts With Little to No Importance

    Posted on Saturday April 11th, 2009 at 01:10 in Personal, Me, random, childhood, high fashion

    But first, this… As you can, my fashion sense was amazing, as I’m clearly wearing a t-shirt that has two primary and one tertiary color in it, and there isn’t even a design on it. The shorts, however, have a design on them, and it ...

  • Ottawa: Fun to Say

    Posted on Saturday March 21st, 2009 at 18:37 in travel, Personal, Chocolate, food, ottawa

    Really though, I like saying that word. The building you see above is the Ottawa Parliament Building (I’m pretty sure). I would have taken a picture myself but I’m feeling lazy about taking pictures this trip. Plus, my own pictures woul...

  • It’s Done!

    Posted on Saturday March 7th, 2009 at 02:27 in portfolio, Personal, artwork

    As difficult as it is for me to say that any creative endeavor of mine is “done”, I think I can now say that my portfolio site is DONE! www.mikefowlerartist.com Not quite the domain name that I wanted to get, but it turns out that Michael...

  • Why Twitter?

    Posted on Tuesday March 3rd, 2009 at 20:37 in Personal, social networking, twitter

    So, first there was myspace, mainly focused on pictures and keeping in touch with friends. Then came facebook, which started as a social tool as well, but then turned into the most effective way to procrastinate on the internet, with the possible exc...

  • Seitan… You’re My New Fav

    Posted on Monday February 23rd, 2009 at 23:47 in Personal, food, cooking, birthday, puppies, seitan, soy

    Behold… In what is probably one of the more delicious meals I’ve ever made for myself, the above pictured food entered my stomach tonight for dinner. I have all this seitan that I made the other day, and there’s so many possibilitie...

  • A Weekend of Waffles and Win

    Posted on Monday February 23rd, 2009 at 01:36 in Personal, food, vegan, spring break, waffles, seitan, the eve

    Oh dear, it has been far too long since I last posted something. But do excuse me, it was a hectic weekend. And by hectic, I mean eptic. And by eptic, I mean EPIC. Two major things happened this weekend. Well, three, but two sort of go together. One....

  • Two More Days, and How to Be Trendy

    Posted on Monday February 16th, 2009 at 00:23 in music, Personal, cleanse, gravatar, alexi murdoch, the eve

    When I wake up I will be on Day 9! I know I’ve already said this in a previous post but MAN is it weird to think that I have not put food into my body in 8 days. But I’m feeling great! And I think when I start to wane myself back onto foo...

  • Reevaluating

    Posted on Saturday February 14th, 2009 at 01:21 in diet, Personal, food, vegan, vegetarian, cleanse

    Among other things, the past 6 days (4 more to go!) have led to several internal conversations regarding my eating habits after I finish the cleanse and the morality they entail. For those of you who don’t know, I made the decision to become a ...

  • Half Way!

    Posted on Thursday February 12th, 2009 at 20:29 in Personal, native american, artwork, cleanse, maya, bust, steampunk

    Day Five of cleanse! Feeling great still, though I am a bit low on sleep. This cleanse is allowing me to experience two new things in my life, things that I normally just wouldn’t have any reason to even think about. First off, the feeling of n...

  • Cleanse and New Art

    Posted on Saturday February 7th, 2009 at 00:24 in Personal, detox, cleanse, the eve

    Beginning Sunday, I will be partaking in something that I’ve been reading about for the past 6 months or so. Since I’d heard of it about a year ago I’d really wanted to do it, but now it’s happening for sure. So yes, starting ...
