entertaining

Concerts: It's looking like it might be a summer of a few concerts...which is always a nice change! Xavier Rudd was awsome on Saturday night...very chill and such a great venue! This Thursday I will be heading to see Coldplay at the Rogers Centre with Heather! Holla! Row 18 on the floor! Thanks for inviting me! yay! This weekend, perhaps Sam Roberts. Tickets are sold out, but I am on the hunt...so if you know anyone selling, I am in! Also another sold out venue that I was late to the punch on: Matt Nathanson is playing August 11th at the Mod Club. He is one guy I would love to see! Might have to go scalp!
Bachelorette: What was up with last night? Talk about all over the show! I was happy to see Reid back, yet he needed to step up his game. Running shoes? Also if this was the one chance for him to win over Jillian, why was he not overly confessing his love. I know...I'm sure he was paid to come back...all about the ratings..but still! Loved Kiptons attire. He had my vote. But of course, though Ed is a little dorky, I'm always in for a happily ever after!

I ran up the door, opened the stairs, said my pajamas and put on my prayers - turned off my bed, tumbled into my light, and all because he kissed me good-night! ~Author Unknown

Forever 21

Count down is officially on! Forever 21 is coming to Mapleview Shopping Centre in Burlington. Soo for those of you who don't know me...I am a HUGE forever 21 fan. I go above and beyond the call of duty to make bi-weekly to mostly monthly stops in Newmarket to hit up the best Forever 21 out there. There is one in Dundas Square but is terrible that I dont even consider it to be a legit store. Anywho, I make frequent stops there on the way up or home from the cottage and always walk away with items. Though you have to sort through a lot, you will always find something and the price point is between: $17.00 - $35.00. I would say my clothes are becoming 50% from there. Long ago are the days of Holts. Anywho, I was randomly in Mapleview Shopping Centre the other day and came across the best news I have received in awhile....Forever 21 is coming soon! October! Yay!! Thought I would share. Holla!
ps. I am well aware I am not 21 anymore :( sad but true...but there are some killer stuff in there for all ages. fyi

One martini...

two martini...three martini...Floor :)
Saturday afternoon and into the early morning we hit the town and celebrated Katie and the next chapter in her life...by throwing her a Bachelorette party! It was definitely one for the books! We started off with some mani's and pedi's...made our way to Aradia Fitness where we strutted our stuff and learnt how to do a lil pole dancing (actually was a serious workout! hmm?) We then made our way to Water Side Inn where we stepped it up a notch and had some din, drinks, games, serious laughs, drinks, music, drinks games, and then made our way to the Bar. Of all the girls I know Katie definitely knows how to party...or at least can keep up with me ;) ha! "hey black betty rambalam..." Cheers to a great night! Looking forward to August 8th!
ps. Saw Bruno on Sunday eve...OFF SIDE...but hilarious!
pps. Happy 30th Birthday Heather! Love ya! xo

Go for the ride of your life

The roller coaster crawled slowly upward, inching toward the first and biggest hill. And suddenly we were screaming downhill at ninety seven miles an hour. It is, they claim, the fastest roller coaster in the world. I laughed and yelled and clutched the handlebar. When the ride ended, the attendant turned to us as we were about to leave. "Would you like to go again?" he asked "It's the last ride of the night." We all shouted yes and rode the course again, the wind whipping through our hair. When the ride ended, as all rides do, we sat in our seats and cheered.
Sometimes things happen. Things we didn't expect. Things we didn't plan on. An event occurs that changes our life dramatically. The event may be good or bad, desirable or undesirable, fortunate or unfortunate. No matter how we describe it, its impact is the same. We step off our usual path and go for a roller coaster ride.
You may have begun a time of deep transformation, a journey chosen by your soul. Feel all you need to feel. Allow your thoughts to flow. Let your body shift as you go through the curves. Let yourself be transformed. Enjoy the ride, the entire experience, with all its twists and curves. Scream in fear. Cry out in joy. Laugh aloud with glee.
If you find yourself on a roller coaster,
turn it into the ride of your life.
