October 5th, 2011 in a possible regret, and now you might know everything, confession of the day, family, find the dorkiest sentence in this, here is my heart, i can't believe i said that, i should be a P.S.A., I sound drunk but I assure you I am not, I'm scared to see the search engine results to this, I'm yoda. Everyone else is a grasshopper, introspection sometimes causes me to drink, it happened this week, it's a long one (twss), it's always easier to say it than do it, lists, sometimes you just have to leap, thank you Eleni, this is what happens when you listen to a sad song, when strangers see you NAKED (inspired by one of my *favourites)
I’m thinking of blaming Nike (because after my last globalization class, I like to blame them for everything that’s wrong with the world) or all the pastel colored chick lit books that line my shelves. Or maybe I should just blame Sarah Palin because really, I enjoy blaming her for everything.
More seriously (because really, anything is more serious than Sarah Palin), I think it might be a generational thing. The idea that being afraid of anything, admitting regrets or fears is a weakness. We worked so hard to become leaders and college grads …READ MORE

Okay, that took me over an hour to get that picture up there. Because I got sucked into spoiler websites and NOW I KNOW WHO WINS POV THIS WEEK. NOOOOOOOOOO. It’s like unwrapping your Christmas presents before Christmas. You WANT to know, but you don’t really want to know. Sigh. I need someone to take the internet away from me.
But back to my favourite people on television. These two are …READ MORE

What wonderful news!
Seriously though, the last month has been a whirlwind of pie baking and sleepovers and dress freakouts and pictures posed while modeling 1 am lush flush. There’s been swimming in clear water, fighting grasshoppers and napping under trees. There’s been last minute speech meltdowns and celebratory high fives. There’s been gasps over the dress, sighs over the kiss and a successful mission to recapture a flower girl gone rogue.
Originally, my plan was to try and keep life sane while preparing to watch my best friend get married- though eventually through …READ MORE

April 18th, 2011 in AGGRESSIVE eye rolling makes me mad, anger and I have sat down for tea, because I can't do report cards 24/7, confession of the day, don't hate me for this, famous people make for good gossip, i am slowly going crazy, I'm scared to see the search engine results to this, it seemed like a good idea at the time..., it's ironic because I'm Canadian, my passive aggressiveness is devastating, sometimes i get violent, when i say it anyway Everything came to a point today when I told Giuliana Rancic that her tweet was dumb and she sounded shallow. Sure, I said it differently, but that’s what I was feeling when she told her 2,152,611 followers to compliment people today and then only gave examples that related to appearance.
I’m not sure why I even gave it a second thought but before I knew it- I was steaming about it. I promptly replied that it sounded like a great idea but complimenting someone on something besides their appearance might make it even better. And then I thought about it …READ MORE
April 10th, 2011 in AHHHHHHHHHHH!, and then i laughed out loud, Blogroll, confession of the day, i wrote this just for the picture, I'm scared to see the search engine results to this, lists, oh look! i have opinions., quote of the day, who needs a self help book? (via)
1. I love the above image and the message it gives. Because seriously, who hasn’t been there? The second the choice is given to someone else, or you know a coin- you gain the clarity you need to realize what you wanted all along. High-five, Universe. And yes, that’s as deep as I’m going to get on Sunday morning.
2. Stomach bug + vacation time = FINALLY WATCHING “ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT”. I KNOW. I KNOW. It’s like, someone just introduced me to what humor is. I just finished the first season and am alternating between thinking I …READ MORE
January 29th, 2011 in and now you might know everything, because US health care makes me sad, brookem is awesome!, confession of the day, don't judge me based on my love for bad music, here is my heart, i may write about the west wing forever, it makes sense to me, it's a long one (twss), it's okay- you can skim this one, love harder, overwhelmed doesn't even begin..., quote of the day, right on my sleeve, sad, self improvement, when i say it anyway, who needs a self help book? Obviously I’m lacking in my usual wit when that is what I can come up with for a title to this post after 34 minutes of hard, squinty-eyed staring at my computer while listening to my go to source of inspiration (*Taylor Swift on repeat).
It’s been a day. It’s been a week. Hell, it’s been a last 12 months. Yesterday started out great then turned into one of the hardest days in my entire life. It involved breaking points, furious texting and confirmation that insurance companies are douchebags. That makes me sound insensitive but I assure you- that’s not …READ MORE
June 13th, 2010 in 20something, advice, confession of the day, H.A.D gets his own tag- that's love, here is my heart, i think my sweetness gave you a cavity, I'm yoda. Everyone else is a grasshopper, it makes sense to me, life lesson, lists, love harder You know, I feel sometimes like I haven’t been fair. Before H.A.D. was diagnosed, I turned to the internet and asked for help. And everyone responded in huge, gorgeous and memorable ways by posting my plea. And after we found out he had Multiple Myeloma? You all responded again, through your kind words, the worlds best video and donations. And then H.A.D. got overwhelmed and I fell apart and nothing felt easy or right and it seemed so much easier to not share, not talk, not explain. It seemed easier to sit in my own stew of feelings- of jealousy …READ MORE
June 6th, 2010 in 1/2 funny 1/2 serious 100% important, a possible regret, because "guilt" is a dirty word, confession of the day, don't judge me based on my love for bad music, I want to make Jim Halpert a mix tape, it seemed like a good idea at the time..., let's still be friends?, lists, music, right on my sleeve, soapbox, the Ex files, the one that nobody reads because of the title, when i say it anyway I know exactly when it happened.
My first year of university, I started dating this guy. A music guy. Who actually got watery eyed when he searched through my CD collection and found Now 4. And not only did he find that particular CD extremely and personally offensive, he found dozens more like it. In fact, he didn’t find a single CD to approve of in the mix of boy bands and mainstream pop.
Instead of defending my choices, I meekly listened as he raved about all the new, hip and obscure bands I had never heard of- that were …READ MORE
January 18th, 2010 in beauty can get ugly, because "guilt" is a dirty word, confession of the day, earning my dork badge, find the dorkiest sentence in this, H.A.D gets his own tag- that's love, harry potter, i am slowly going crazy, i complain because I care, i like cupcakes more than gluten, i may write about the west wing forever, i'm hot like fire, it happened this week, it's almost like a meme, lists, oh dear, p.s. i love me, pretty hair makes me happier, proof i attract crazy, quote of the day, reinforcing stereotypes since 1981, right on my sleeve, secrets, sometimes i get violent, the last line is my favourite, the one that nobody reads because of the title, this makes me sound dumber than i am 1. When I go to Starbucks, I become irrationally worried that I’m going to forget my order. I will spend the entire time stuck in the drive thru saying my order on repeat. But attempting to say it casually as well, so I don’t come off as a *robot. (Because yes, that’s a serious concern I have- people mistaking me for a robot). “Venti, non-fat, no whip, white hot chocolate, Venti, non-fat, no whip, white hot chocolate. Why yes, it IS cold out today. Oh you like my hair? Thank you! What would I like? Oh that’s easy, Venti, non-fat, …READ MORE
