MINI EGGS

This Easter I have gotten about 4 bags of mini eggs and a ton of chocolates from my boyfriend and his family.


I have slowly been eating them these past two days and I am sad to say I am starting to run out of mini eggs :( but thankfully they sell them now all year around. I found this commercial from the 1983 and thought it was pretty funny.

Now who doesn't love mini eggs?!

Bucket List Item Number One: Book List

The first thing on my Summer Bucket list is to complete a reading list. I am not the fastest reader, as I like to read and reread some of the parts and think about the ideas behind it. I think that 15 books in 4 months is do able and hopefully a few more.

Before I FallThe Secret Life of Bees


This is the list thus far, so any suggestion will be welcomed : )

Summer Break is Here

Minus the sunshine and long nights, summer break has come. For this summer I do not have any traveling plans as I have had in the previous years, so I have decided to focus on working at H&M and volunteering. However working and no play will result in boring summer.


To ensure my summer break doesn't just pass away I have decided to create a bucket list and hope to cross out most of it off.

This is the list thus far:

1. Complete Reading List (15 books)
2. Visit the Toronto Zoo
3. Go to a cottage
4. Road Trip to another City in Ontario for the day
5. Go Camping for the First Time
6. Bike Across the City
7. Attend some live performances
8. Complete my "Top 101 Movies to Watch" list with my boyfriend
9. Get my G1
10. Finish Reno in my Room and Bathroom
11. Attend five Concerts, both local and big name artist/bands
12. Start/ Learn a New Hobby(not sure what this quite yet)
13. Play a Game of Volleyball on an actual Beach
14. Picnic on Toronto Island
15. Re-Watch all the Seasons of Buffy

If anyone else has any good ideas, let me know! Also any books recommend?





Here is the Monday Music Video:

Bring back the Sundae ( Where is Spring?)

You CAUGHT ME! I have been slacking on my commit to this blog, but can you blame a girl who is juggling finals and a new job?? Well I guess you can.

Topic on my mind: Spring, so far it has been a let down, anyone else feeling that way in Toronto?? Today it was raining with snow and sleet...why?? This is a clear sign that climate change is real, so is it too late to change our ways? People need to start caring more and making a change in their ways!


Thinking back to last year this time, I was wearing skirts and my jean jacket with a tank top, today I had to wear my warm leather jacket, boots and jeans with a warm sweater under it. I miss Spring time and would like it back!

Other then the lack of nice weather life has been good. Working at H&M has been awesome, and I hate to say it, but I am glad I didn't stay at ZARA. Though I did learn a lot from my wonderful manager there, and it probably helped me get the job at H&M, but ZARA was just so much stress, where now I enjoy coming to work and don't mind staying the extra minute here and there.

H&M have just launched their new collection "Conscious", which is more eco-friendly, with using environmentally friendly, raw materials and recycled materials. This goes in hand with what they have promised on their CSR report, and I am really glad that they are doing what they have set out to do.

This is the dress I bought for the upcoming Humber Gala






The video for this Monday is an old fave of mine, it brings back memories of Spring and sunny days.

Blow My Speakers Up

KE$HA, I got six words for you....

WOW, SICK, GLITTER, CRAZY, LOUD AND AWESOME

those are the words I use to sum up last night's show.

Ke$ha was in town and threw quite the show at the Kool Haus. My friend got me the ticket as a Christmas surprise and we been waiting for about 4 months now to go see her.

The opening act was a bit random but in Ke$ha's taste, though I don't think t he crowd liked him too much. It was Beardo..the Trailer Park Hero...






It was packed, and being an all age show there were a lot of tiny boppers and their parents. It was kind of funny to see them all freak out being in the front when the big push came from behind (the push that happens when the artist hits the stage and everyone wants to get to the front). But this allowed for my friend Mel and I to get ourselves to the front (which we succeeded in 3 and a half songs :D ). So a lot of the photos aren't zoomed in, we were actually that close!

After a few more moments of waiting Ke$ha appeared!






She sang all her hits from her first album and some singles. The show ended with an encore of 'We R Who We R' and 'Fight for your right to party'- The Beastie Boys

The show overall was good, it was just a good time and I didn't expect anything more or anything less from her. Though she is a lot more prettier looking in person and comes off as being a sweetheart.
