Pas mal de choses se sont passes depuis mon dernier post, incluant principalement une implication grandissante dans diverses activites physiques, qui ont pas mal occupees et occupent toujours mes soirs et weekends.&lt;br /&gt;De plus, j'ai perdu un peu le gout de tenir ce blog car apres 3annees et demi passees a Vancouver et peu de temps libre pour partir explorer de nouveaux horizons, j'avais l'impression de ne pas avoir grand chose a partager de sensationel.&lt;br /&gt;Mais apres tout un blog ne devrait pas etre seulement rempli de choses epoustouflantes et depaysantes, c'est aussi un moyen de partager les petites histoires de la vie de tous les jours avec des personnes qui sont juste curieuses de savoir ce que je fais de mon existence...&lt;br /&gt;Du coup j'ai decide de faire quelques renovations a commencer par le titre et la presentation...je vais peut-etre re-aranger le tout au fil du temps, en particulier les couleurs pour lesquelles je n'etais pas tres inspiree aujourd'hui (faire la mosaique de photos dans le font m'a deja pris pas mal de temps).&lt;br /&gt;Je ne peux pas guarantir la frequence de mes posts mais je vais essayer de m'y coller une fois par mois...on verra bien comment ca se passe. Pour me simplifier la vie (et du coup m'encourager a ecrire dans ce blog), j'ai decide de laisser tomber les accents...desolee pour la lecture rendue difficile mais mon ordi a un clavier anglais et c'est "a real pain in the arse" de mettre les accents. Pour mes anciens posts, il me fallait mettre en route mon vieil ordi ce qui etait assez lourd sur le plan logistique...je l'ai toujours mais il est desormais bien plus efficace a prendre la poussiere sur une etagere qu'a etre utilise pour les fonctions pour lesquelles il a ete cree...&lt;br /&gt;Enfin, je vous prie de pardonner mon francais, grandement deteriore par une vie menee a 98% dans la langue de Shakespeare, les 2% restant etant les emails/skype avec ma famille et amis francophones, et les conversations de quelques secondes (avant de passer a l'anglais parce que c'est bien plus facile) avec mes deux (bientot plus qu'un) collegues francophones. J'espere que ce blog va m'aider a rediscipliner mon language.&lt;br /&gt;................................................&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;fin de la longue introduction&lt;/span&gt;.....................................................................&lt;br /&gt;Que suis-je devenue depuis le printemps 2009?&lt;br /&gt;Eh bien pas mal de choses voyez-vous...je suis desormais residente permanente du Canada (depuis juin 2010) ce qui fait de moi une personne libre de travailler et etudier ou je veux et quand je veux. Je travaille toujours pour SJ Geophysics Ltd., deshormais situee dans un batiment bleu ciel a la frontiere entre Delta et Surrey (la grande...loose). Meme patron colerique et secretaire obese, couple mytique auquel on doit maintenant ajouter un caniche croise teckel nommee blackberry, ca frole le cliche, il ne manque plus que la table en formica orange, la blouse a fleurs assortie et le papier peint a losanges marrons. Mais c'est pas grave, j'ai des colleges/amis en or qui m'aident a maintenir une ambiance detendue les jours de tempete. Peut etre un jour je chercherai un autre boulot...&lt;br /&gt;Fort heureusement j'ai une foultitude d'activites pour me defouler apres une journee passee devant l'ordi. J'ai commence les Pilates au printemps 2009 pour essayer de contrebalancer les effets negatifs de la course a pied et ameliorer mon equilibre. J'ai  gravi les echelons assez vite et me suis vu proposer de passer un examen pour devenir prof de Pilates. Je n'ai aucune envie d'enseigner les Pilates mais je pense que ca fait bien sur un C.V., du coup je vais quand meme passer ce test soit en novembre cette annee, soit au printemps prochain.&lt;br /&gt;Apres avoir suivit quelques cours ici et la, je me suis mise au Yoga/relaxation au debut 2010. C'est un tres bon moyen pour se regenerer apres des journees de travail stressantes et aussi pour m'etirer correctement, chose que je ne fais pas assez apres d'autres activites physiques.&lt;br /&gt;Enfin, ma derniere passion: le triathlon. J'ai fait pas mal de courses a pied ces 2 dernieres annees, mais au fil du temps j'ai developpe l'envie d'essayer de finir un triathlon. J'ai donc decide de m'entrainer pour celui organise a l'Universite de Colombie Britanique a Vancouver en avril 2010. La distance d'un triathlon varie selon les epreuves:&lt;br /&gt;-le sprint: 500 a 750m nage, 20 a 30km a velo, 5km de course a pied;&lt;br /&gt;-l'olympique: 1.5km de nage, 40km de velo, 10km de course a pied;&lt;br /&gt;-le demi-ironman, aussi appele 70.3: 2.5km de nage, 70km de velo, un demi marathon (21km et des poussieres);&lt;br /&gt;-l'ironman: 5km de nage, 140km de velo et un marathon (42km et des poussieres)&lt;br /&gt;La nage se deroule soit dans une piscine soit dans l'ocean&lt;br /&gt;Pour ma premiere saison je me suis attaquee au sprint et j'ai vraiment beaucoup beaucoup aime. Dans le futur j'aimerais allonger les distances pour enfin participer a un (ou plusiers) ironmans, mais c'est pour dans plusieurs annees.&lt;br /&gt;L'ambiance des triathlons est incroyable, les gens sont souriant, tout le monde se sent fort et courageux et le sentiment d'accomplissement en passant la ligne d'arrivee est inegalable. J'ai participe a 3 triathlons cette annee et ai obtenu des resultats satisfaisant pour une premiere saison et sans entrainement structure. La nage a ete mon point faible a chaque epreuve, non pas a cause de mon temps (assez decent pour quelqu'un qui n'a jamais nage dans un club) mais a cause du depart de masse dans l'ocean. Des 3 triathlons, juste 1 s'est deroule dans une piscine avec un depart au compte goutte, les 2 autres se sont deroules dans l'ocean avec un depart de masse. Je n'ai jamais aime les endroits surpeuples alors me retrouver dans de l'eau a 16 degres avec 100 autres personnes c'est encore moins mon truc et j'y suis allee sans aucune preparation...mon erreur principale a ete de me mettre en fin de peloton, croyant que j'aurai plus de place pour nager mais au final je me suis retrouvee coincee derriere une troupe de tortues et ai depense beaucoup d'energie a me frayer un chemin dans le tas. Mon deuxieme triathlon de la sorte s'est beaucoup mieux passe. J'ai commence en debut de peloton et me suis retrouvee avec beacoup plus de place pour nager, ma seule erreur ayant ete de sous-estimer la temperature de l'eau et de nager avec une combinaison sans manches (http://www.xterrawetsuits.com/products/womens/wetsuits/volt/).&lt;br /&gt;Malgres ces experiences quelque peu desagreables, je me suis quand meme bien amusee et maintenant que cette saison est finie, il est temps de commencer a preparer la prochaine. Etant donne mon manque d'efficacite et inexperience a mettre en place un plan d'entrainement efficace, je me suis inscrite (hier) dans un club de triathlon. Mon premier entrainement est demain soir et j'ai vraiment hate d'y etre.&lt;br /&gt;Un de mes principaux projets avant le debut de la saison prochaine est de m'acheter un vrai velo de route (j'utilise mon velo hybride cette annee). Pour l'instant j'ai mes yeux rives sur celui-ci http://labiciclettaproshop.com/product/10-cervelo-s1-ultegra-sl-2968.htm a moins que d'ici janvier prochain un autre modele me tape a l'oeil...affaire a suivre.&lt;br /&gt;Mon autre projet est d'investir dans une combinaison a manches pour eviter de ne plus sentir mes bras...ayant de tres bonnes relation avec Xterra Wetsuits, je pense leur etre fidele et ai d'ores et deja eu une offre tres interessante et illimitee en temps pour cette combinaison la http://www.xterrawetsuits.com/products/womens/wetsuits/vendetta/.&lt;br /&gt;Voila pour les mises a jours sur mon quotidien a Vancouver...il est temps pour moi de vaquer a des occupations qui ne requierent pas l'utilisation d'un ordi!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bientot!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2939305426671549725-6804901626048126073?l=cha-au-canada.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cha-au-canada.blogspot.com/feeds/6804901626048126073/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2939305426671549725&amp;postID=6804901626048126073' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2939305426671549725/posts/default/6804901626048126073'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2939305426671549725/posts/default/6804901626048126073'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cha-au-canada.blogspot.com/2010/09/premier-post-de-2010.html' title='Premier post de 2010!'/><author><name>cha-au-canada</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05548957492020371967</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939305426671549725.post-5618700221114946076</id><published>2009-04-19T16:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-19T16:40:41.648-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Photos de printemps...</title><content type='html'>Voici quelques petites photos comme ca prises dans mon coin de paradis...&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L-wrfK6Mwho/Seu131NtfCI/AAAAAAAACdA/uehfZG7kGtM/s1600-h/cherrytree.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Heureusement, il se trouve qu'un genou douloureux me condamne à passer ce magnifique weekend sur le canapé (avec un sachet de légumes congelés élégament posé sur le genou). C'est donc le moment idéal pour vous faire un compte-rendu de quelques unes des activités qui m'ont occupées ces 4 derniers mois... &lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Il se trouve que mes amis aiment faire de l'escalade...pas moi mais j'aime bien regarder...et comme ce weekend d'avril s'annonçait radieux et dans un soucis constant de dépaysement, je les ai accompagné à Skaha, petite ville située dans la vallée de l'Okanagan, à environ 4-5h de route à l'est de Vancouver.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;La vallée de l'Okanagan est réputée pour sa production de fruits et légumes, abondante grace au microclimat chaud qui y règne. Pendant les 2 jours que nous y avons passé je me suis crue de retour en Provence...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ce séjour a été pour moi une occasion de tester ma tente jaune toute neuve...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5230750624106574722" style="DISPLAY: block;

The "Ill" then joins one of the five main French rivers called "Rhin" which constitutes the natural border between France and Germany.&lt;br /&gt;I came back to Strasbourg in order to present my internship, be graduated from my school, spend some time with friends and, of course, take a lot of pictures...&lt;br /&gt;We start the visit with one of the most touristic part of the city called "petite France"...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5114125259186770434" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L-wrfK6Mwho/RvkF09KuEgI/AAAAAAAAAwM/-7HbszQVVR0/s320/2.JPG" border="0" /&gt;The big building on the right is the ENA (stands for "Ecole Nationale d'Administration"), lot of French ministers did this school which was formerly based in Paris. You can see the "Vauban Bridge" in the background. Vauban (1633-1707) was Louis the 14th military architect. This bridge was build to protect the city from the marine invasions. If the city was attacked, the soldiers who were staying inside the bridge were able to quickly riposte...&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5114125263481737746" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L-wrfK6Mwho/RvkF1NKuEhI/AAAAAAAAAwU/GUs2VGEUXtk/s320/3.JPG" border="0" /&gt;The "Vauban Bridge" again...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5114125263481737762" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L-wrfK6Mwho/RvkF1NKuEiI/AAAAAAAAAwc/FHkWvi5wok4/s320/4.JPG" border="0" /&gt;The gun powder was stored in such tower (center of the picture)...&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5114125267776705074" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L-wrfK6Mwho/RvkF1dKuEjI/AAAAAAAAAwk/8Qsidn_LxYY/s320/5.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5114168518097376338" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L-wrfK6Mwho/RvktK9KuFFI/AAAAAAAAA00/Y_wHTOf5wVQ/s320/39.JPG" border="0" /&gt;...much recent building, the Art Gallery is the big glass building (first picture).

Many polemic arised to explain that, some people even said that the Church didn't get enough money to finish the construction...but the real reason is that the cathedral was build on an unstable ground: groundwaters flow under the building, making the ground very fragile and stilts have been set up to provide the building from collapsing. Building a second tower would have add a considerable weight that the stilts wouldn't have been able to bear...&lt;br /&gt;As you are my friends i can just advise you to not visit the cathedral during seismic periods as seismologists plan that it will be the first building to collapse in case of earthquake...the second building being the school i went to, but within two years and a half we never had any problems...

Jusqu'à Janvier dernier, il était possible d'en faire le tour par un petit sentier appelé "seawall", les arbres d'un côté, l'océan de l'autre.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Malheureusement ce joli parc a été ravagé par les tempêtes qui ont sévi en début d'année et la partie ouest et nord du seawall sont provisoirement fermées au public en attendant que tout soit déblayé. Cependant même si la ballade est un peu écourtée (des raccourcis à travers bois ont été aménagés pour permettre aux gens de se balader un peu), il est toujours possible de faire le tour de cette presque presqu'île...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Alors voilà comme d'hab des photos par ci- par là...dans l'ordre chronologique de mon escapade...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;...à l'entrée du parc, un arbre déraciné gigantesque est là pour rappeler au promeneur les dégâts causés par la tempête...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052367461781574930" style="DISPLAY: block;
