Blackberry 7 Fan Night

I thought this evening deserved its own post purely because i am sucha Blueberry fan and the evening was purdy epic. Thnx to J, i was his guest to a social event at the Fifth. I didn't really think much of it until i reached the club and noticed there was a huge line-up. As if that did not give away how awesome the inside was going to be, all the "open bar" tweets that populated my timeline did it for me.

The fifth in general is a very posh venue so I did not expect it to be any less than chic in terms of ambiance. The music was great, the food was pretttty good (or whatever I was able to eat anyways). The people dressed nicely, photographers, a photobooth (that i wish i took advantage of more) and of course, can't go wrong with open bar. (J got disgustingly plastered. i loved every moment of it hahah)

The purpose of the event was to promote the new OS7 blackberry phones that are coming out in September. The main feature is the touchscreen for ALL the phones, including the BOLD (the one i am MOST excited about) Torch and the shit Storm which is now also called the Torch (even though everyone called it the Touch that night....whateves). The phones are pretty nice. I'm REALLY excited to get it in September once my contract is up. My phone is SO ghetto with its beat-up keyboard and shell plus the OS majorly lags. People yelped at the sight of it that evening.

And of course, a party would not be complete without a lootbag. But with what?!?!

Uh huh. That's right, im totally bragging. Cue the jealousy.

PACKED

LOL poor eeeyore. He's SO angry. hahah

Project 3031: March Edition && blog mode on

Day 4: The best vacation you've ever gone on/your dream vacation

I'm going to choose to rant about my "dream" vacation and that would be to see Europe. Anywhere. I want to have a net book on me and just blog, by a canal or a cafe. Be able to experience the culture, the art and just in general be able to appreciate life. I don't know how to do that in Toronto. Things are so busy here, so complicated and nobody has time to just sit back, take a breather and realize/notice the natural order of things, the beauty that lurks in every detail of the cold, dark, expensive buildings we have. It's quite a shame. I remember K and I once talked about how Toronto is beautiful too but there's just so much "new" Toronto that overshadows the "old". I.E. A timmies RIGHT BESIDE a gorgeous cathedral on Bloor. Go figure right?

The world is out there. I just gotta poke my head out. Be brave, and be more selfish. Do something for myself instead of for others. Explore and enjoy another world. That would be my dream vacation.

###

Tis weekend is hereee and March is seriously going to fly.

• Tomorrow is the Cousin and R's annual Juss 4 fun fete and if anybody remembers from my FB pics from last year- it was crazy and messy. I anticipate the same for this year. 
• There's also what seems like to be a zillion Arsenal games for me to watch this month. The day honestly just goes by so much faster when I know the boys have a game to play the following day. 
• That said, it only means dear Annnbug and i will be having lots and lots of WAG nights and days at Scallys aka Gooners Central.
• I got my first Arsenal jersey (i think its safe to admit it here? i dont think any of my gooner twitter friends read my blog) and i can't wait to order four more. 
• Another job interview next week! I hope its not sketch because i feel like it is. Meeh. More interview experience for me. I keep on getting interviews, and things just keep on falling. But hey at least im getting calls right?
• I got my taxes done and put it this way- i think my San Diego trip is paid for. FUCK YES. 
• I need to up it with my work out. I've been on a good healthy lunch diet (not so healthy dinner but thats not the point) but not good w/ a workout regime. Fakerys. 
• The event that i was hired for is this Tuesday. I am nervous. I've been working on this since November. I hope there will be plenty of hot eye candy. Since i am in charge of the majority of registration, it basically means i get to talk to the majority of these hot eye candy. Giggle giggles.

Okay i need to go figure out my day for tomorrow now. And also clean my room. The clothes hill on my bed is very big and its starting to bug me. 

I'll be scheduling some posts through out the weekend. So enjoy! Outs.  i lied. didnt get around to it. sorry!

What is the point of being taken when the other person makes you feel like you're single.

Comic Con 2011

Last July i was telling everyone about how much i wanted to go to comic con in San Diego and was whining about it all over my twitter and fb. I didn't realllllly think anybody would actually be interested enough to go. 'Cause seriously. Its 3,487 km away, tickets are about 107 dollars for four days at the convention (or you can do ONE but obvs whats the point of that) and its really a calling for all geeks, nerds, fan-girls, fan-boys and i know for a fact- not a lot of people can stand that. It's like being at Silver Snail (a comic book store on Queen St) but amplified 500x. Hell i STILL get looks (not the good kind) for being over enthusiastic about certain marvel comics-turned movies. Or X-Men. I really do love X-Men muchs. lol Here's something i created last year: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v226/SayMuiDang/dork-comic-con.jpg

Anyways. Until recently, a discussion arise amongst the guys and interestingly enough (well not really lol) K was making plans to buy tickets to go there for his birthday and didn't know whether we interested. Obviously being the four nerds that we are,we all jumped at the idea. But it seriously was all up in the air until a week ago during our annual Winterlicious dinner, we confirmed our interest. Which pretty much means, the purchase of tickets will finalize whether we are going or not. To be honest I was a TINY bit skeptical because i have heard the horror nightmare stories from reading blogs about purchasing tickets online so I wasn't exactly sure whether it would happen. That was further confirmed this morning when K calls me to tell me that the ticket servers went down TWO MINUTES after sales started. Basically tickets went on sale at noon, the darn thing went down at 12:02pm. You'd really think because this is COMIC CON we are talking about here, they will have a truckload of tech geeks and programmers lined up to create something invincible right? HA. No.

 

Apparently this was what everyone was getting on their screen for about an hour and a half or two.

So after talking to K i thought, bleh. Just my luck right? Thank godddddddddd the guy texts me back and says that he got em. 

What?

THAT'S RIGHT. I'M GOING TO  SAN DIEGO COMIC CON 2011 BIATCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happiest Screen of my life.

PWAHHAHA Ohemgee. I cannot express how unbelievably happy and freaking excited I am. The thought of previews of comics, of toys, of memorabilia, world premieres of certain movies and let's nottttttttttttttttt forget..........the VAMPIRE DIARIES/TRUEBLOOD/BIG BANG THEORY panels?!?!?!? Oh eff me now. i am READY to fight people to be able to be part of these panels. I am going to DESTROY anybody who's in my way of seeing Ian Somerhalder/Eric Northman/Jim Parsons. MARK MY WORDS. mwahhah

Oh and for anybody interested, im going w/ albie, lx and shadow. I cannot imagine going to the world's biggest geek gathering with anybody else but these guys. Its going to be absolutely epic. Our conversations are pretty much made up of comic books/sci-fi/anime/movies/tv/gaming topics. The other half of our conversation topics include making mockery of certain individuals (b/c we are evil) and constant bitching of our lackof money status lol otherwise its mainly those. Its one of those things where i must go to at least once in my life and its crazyyyyyy how i am going to be able to do it with 3 guys whom i consider to be three of my best friends. I haven't really told J im going to San Diego with three guys yet. HOPEFULLY............he will be okay. ha ha haaa.

yayayya!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Reading Treat

i feel like i haven't blogged in SO long and its gotten to a point where i dont even know where i should start. i'm sorry. ive been so lazy and ive been out and abouts. Guilty as charged! My readers must be dropping like flies. Sobs. Please come back. I promise to update more!!!!! I am pretty disappointed in myself if that makes you guys come back. I will also try to be as entertaining as possible.

STATUS: Its currently 1110pm, and the weather in my room is COLD. My fingers are like icicles and im wearing a hoodie w/ the hood on. What happened to the "supposed" storm anyways? Oh and might i add- im hungee as a fat grizzly bear.

...............................

Okay that was a lame intro. Not at ALL up to my usual entertaining par. So here's something entertaining to read before i start.

 It's an actual kijiji ad that u can see here: source or click on the pic for a screen shot.

It says: Wanted: Male

Hey, I'm Emma Finlayson. I'm 17 years old and am looking for a attractive male student (ages 16-18) who would be willing to accompany me to my prom for a couple of hours to take pictures and pose as my prom date. No, I am not a creeper. My friend and I are doing this to prove how stupid prom is, and also need someone to stand next to without looking weird. You can contact me from my email address. Price is flexible
P.S.- A hockey player or someone who likes hockey is preferred.

ROFL x NO COMMENT

ANYWAYS. ahhaha. Actual content now.

January totally flew by didn't it? I'm trying to remember what i did but my head is drawing a blank. I do know i did plenty though. And plenty of movies. Ohmygee i watched ALOT of movies in the past month. The Fighter (Worth Seeing, Christian Bale is hilarious), True Grit (I seriously dont know what the hype is with this movie. It has a 98% rating but i thought it was so shitty and i couldnt wait for the movie to end), Black Swan (Disturbing. Loved it), Tangled (Had zero expectations for this movie. Gotta say the "romantic" scene has gots to be by far the most romantic disney scene ever) & Blue Valentine (Tragic. Wouldn't have survived if i watched it 9 months ago). 

Oh yes. I went snowboarding over the weekend @ Blue. And got totally trashed right after wards (as expected). It was totally epic because i actually did not even drink that much (comparatively to my past experiences....it seriously wasn't even much. i blame it ALL on the fact i didnt eat dinner....again) but got so trashed that everybody thought i was weak sauce and passed out at 1230am. UGH. Total fail.

On the subject of boarding though- J was extremely patient with me during the learning process (even though i was actually a lot shitter when he was around. go figure). M was even more patient with me. Even after i took her down with me 10 million times and wasted half her day on the Big Baby hill, she STILL stuck by me and held my hand the entire way. Note to self (NTS), I owe her a really awesome dinner. At the end of the day i think i did REALLY well in the 6 hours i had though. I completely skipped baby hill,  its moving carpet (lol) &&& the kids on the moving carpet and jumped immediately to the lifts- I think people ought to be proud of me. I was quite determined to learn it though- just for the sake that J is pro at this shit and well yeah, i suppose i gotta at least be able to balance myself to not embarrass him. sighs. I do wish i have the funds to do it again. I think if i am going to do it again though, it would be only to go with the cousin. Otherwise.....i am too poor b/c rentals is a bitch. And rentals hurt my toes. Sad face.

Prior to going boarding though- had a fabulous post-New Years (winterlicious) dinner with the boys. Over dinner, the boys and i have decided to go ahead with plans to head to San Diego for COMIC CON 2011. Not a whole lot of details on that except that its going to be in July, for about 5-6 days, celebrate Coco's birthday while being there and a whole shit load of blogging, exploring and 110% nerding it out!!!!!!!!!! Bahahah Going to be a trip of a life time if it works out. Crosses fingers.

So now. Present day February. It's Chinese New Years eve as of now. Its an hour since i started this entry and i am still not done (and i am still hungry). February is going to be a freakingggggg fast month (aside from the obvious fact that its shorten. duh).

Stuff im looking forward to this month  
(half of which i copied and pasted from A because our schedule is the same)

• The X and O Vday Partay 
• Vday
• FIFA Friendlies! France vs Brazil + Spain, Holland, Germany, England..<3
• UEFA Champions League - Arsenal vs. Barca (my teams!!!!!!! so torn)
• WEMBLEY! Arsenal is going to Wembley for the Carling Cup final (!!!)
• Family day weekend
• Futbol WAG Evenings w/ A
• One more Winterlicious Dinner

I actually cannot wait for March to come because of a certain FETE the cousin and lovely R are co-hosting once again. Ohmygod words cannot express the excitement i feel. Last year they held a Graffiti party and it was just insane. This year is going to be messier and bigger i swear. 

STAY TUNED ALERT: I have a whole blog entry im ready to write about for Chinese New Year. That will be for tomorrow. Just saying.

Oh my god i just learnt (from facebook haha) that a friend is engaged. Wow. That's two couples i learned in one night that's newly engaged. and theyre MY age. Dot dot dot. Isn't that so lovely. !@#$

Moving on.

I was reading my cousins blog earlier in the evening re: beast mode, losing weight and all that fun stuff and i'm pretty much on the same boat as she is. If people haven't noticed, but i haven't been loading pictures on facebook. Whenever i don't, it pretty much means that i look like shit and i don't want to display how i look, as selfish as it may sound. During the summer, i can honestly say i was in the best shape i have ever been in my entire life. I did kickboxing twice a week, combated on average 3.5 times a week, attended kettle bell warm-ups twice, hot yoga once a week and weight training 2 or 3 times a week. I was extremely hardcore and it showed in my clothes sizes and pictures. Now i'm back to the fat panda i always have been and it has really put a toll on my self-esteem (that i had very little to begin with) and ive gotten into the "i-only-wear-black" phase because of this recent weight re-gain. I am hungry all the time, especially at night before i sleep and i find myself eating constantly because im sure my stomach has enlarged again therefore it needs that extra food to fill it. Rolls are coming out and my face is as large as a pancake that can feed 4. It really sucks balls but my current work situation and the weather is NOT making it very easy for me to lose that weight again. That said though, i KNOW i can lose it.....but i just like ranting about it. Hopefully the cousin and i can work towards that goal of ours and be damn fit again when the weather gets hotter.

Another side note- I am quite thankful that I have my cousin as my motivational partner when it comes to wanting to lead a more "healthier" lifestyle. Our goals are pretty much the same, our social lifestyle is pretty much the same (we both do enjoy a shot or six) also. In terms of exercising, i find that we both are into high intensity workout regimes. We don't like pilates, we don't like regular yoga or jogging. We both like extreme bootcamp-like shit and i find she is the only person that is able to keep that same high intensity pace up whereas others slow down after half an hour or after 4 man push-ups. I absolutely love that about her (amongst other things of course). I realllllly hope she knows what a tough cookie she is. She's tough and she motivates the shit out of me. I love her for that.

Last but not least.

I forgot how hard it is, to start something new. I completely forgot and i feel myself making the same mistakes again. I don't entirely understand why i allow this to happen again, it just keeps on happening. and here i am, thinking i am so boss of my situation and i won't let it happen again. But the truth is, at the end of the day i'm just going to be that same person that gives too much, expects too much. No matter how much game i speak of, who it is. Clearly i turned out liking you, a lot more than i originally planned.

Okay sleep time. Manager gaves me the day off tmr because of the Snowpocolypse that's FINALLY occurring.

 Someone that took a pic of the storm DT and tweeted it as of 1:26am

Taking advantage of this by being productive, applying for jobs tomorrow morning, more blogging, figuring out which Arsenal jersey (finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!) i will be ordering while sipping on delish Korean Brown Rice Green tea, Forever nuts tea and chomping away on my Starbucks caramel macchiato biscottis that i purchased earlier tonight.

OUTS! Hope the read made up for the lack.

New Years Eve, Eve

The day is almost over and i am still in a bit of a shock that tomorrow is NYE. It really, REALLY doesn't feel  like it. It might be the warmth, the lack of snow, the lack of spirit - who knows. That said i am starting to get a bit excited about it after getting my nails done earlier in the afternoon. Currently @ a SB by dear A's place, awaiting her to shower so we can grab some dinner and a gossip futbol session to follow. I redeemed my much belated "birthday" drink (that i am entitled to!!!!!) and made my own seat at the corner of the bar where i don't think is a "legit" seat.....but due to my subtle flirtatious manipulative but friendly nature i was able to get my way and was even able to find a plug BEHIND the bar. Win!

So what's the plan for tomorrow? Getting sloshed (in a classy way) with the cousin and the group at Club V over in Yorkville. Its suppose to be a Masquerade party but i can really careless about that. It's mostly the 3 bottles and 2 bubblys that i care about haha. The night's goal is to try to maintain lady-like posture while double fisting my drinks to sensual top 40s beats.

The idea is to be able to wake for the Arsenal game at noon. haha! The shit i do for futbol.

It's actually my first time clubbing for NYE (SHOCKING. I KNOW) and will probably be my last time. haha so i better make the best out of it.

I will probably not be updating at all. If my hangover doesn't kill me l'll update on the 1st after my Arsenal game at noon where i plan to spend my day at SB w/ possibly J when he returns for the day (that's possibly after hangover dimsum with Cousin & Co.) Otherwise until January 3rd it is. I'm excited about posting that entry. I've been slowly adding to it every day so its going to be quite a read.

So a big Happy New Years to everyone!
Party hard, party safe.
I will be back with a year wrap-up entry when i can function!

Outs~

My Gift to you all- Merry Christmas

Oh its been a while boys and girls. A while since ive actually really sat down and really wanted to "blog". There has been so many blog-worthy topics and moments over the past weeks but my laziness has gotten the better of me and since this Wednesday, the cold-bug has gotten the best of me. I still feel like poo but thank god for this thing called Tylenol Sinus and Cold, i am able to function.

Today is Christmas Eve as we all know. I officially started typing this around 10pm. I hope by midnight i would have this completed with something juicy and entertaining for you to read as a Christmas gift from me to you. Please do forgive me for the terrible grammer and lack of cohesion because i am still pretty drugged & stuffed up.

Lets back-track shall we?

I promised people a MIAMI post. HAHA oh dear i am so sorry. But i find it kind of pointless to blog the details of the trip when those i actually care about and DO talk to- already know the details of it and i dont want to be redundant. That said though l'm still going to talk about it briefly in an overview sense rather than- what we did on what day and what we ate on what time.

As everyone know, i went to South Beach Miami with one of my best girls C, as a mini getaway for an extended long weekend. We stayed at a beautiful hotel that was literally minutes away from the ocean and another few minutes away from this popular shopping/entertainment/restaurant strip call Lincoln Shopping Strip. Both of us has gone through what we felt like life has done us wrong again (relationship and career-wise). For many evenings prior to our trip it was literally like deja vu where she would be smoking outside on my driveway and we both would just pour our hearts out to each other - just like almost 6 years ago. Where life again played us as fools. Anyways being doomed together, we thought "Hey why not take our doom-ness to somewhere HAWT". Hence the idea was form and we were on a plane to Florida! It was ironic (but not shocking) that we felt many of the same emotions as we left Toronto together on a plane and many scenic things reminded us of certain things. Our trip consisted of us exploring, eating, drinking, shopping, tanning, partying, counting how many pairs of homosexual men that we saw in the remaining duration of our trip.

FYI Kids- South Beach is not a place to get laid. Unless your a guy.

Seriously! Nothing against gays but there was WAY too many that it was a BIT overwhelming. Perhaps it was an underground festival that we did not know about? WHO KNOWS. Maybe boys should tell me that would you ever go shopping/strolling with your bff down a popular tourist strip? I really want to know. Over 80 "suspected" homosexual couples counted within one meal is A LOT if you ask me. 

Another observation- the men that parties there are GENTLEMEN.

They are far from the usual douchey, pushy, obnoxious BOYS in Toronto. I was fairly impressed by the two groups of men that asked us to join their party at this club call Mansion (highly recommended if you are into Hiphop, top40 and oldschool socca....at the end of the night. obvs.) and their mannerism. Sure they aren't lookers and were a bit older than we were but their politeness was what won me over! Thank you Montreal Guy from Room 1 and Black Guy from Room 2! lol

The trip was far, far too short. The weather was amazing. Being able to dine outside in a maxi dress in the middle of December is really something. One thing i did during the trip though was really thought things over. I can go on hating life and fate but i can also take it as a lesson or just another punch thrown at me and stand right back up. I completely admit when we were flying back i felt incrediably sad. I looked out and it was gloomy like that very day, around the same time too and i recalled how happy i was because after a great vacation i was coming home to something. Not this time- i was coming home to nothing ("metaphorically", not "literally") and it was a sharp stab. That said i completely snapped out of it because there's absolutely nothing to be sad about (except from maybe my Job and Weight issue haha). I understand now.

 ive come to understand that there is no suffering if you do neither.
why would anyone want to forget the good times and let time dance by you as you do that? That to me is suppressing, not accepting. It's one choice to choose to suffer. It's also one's choice to put an end to it.

For those interested: I don't feel remotely awkwardness blogging about how i feel even though I know that he comes by here sometimes to read up on what random stuff i have to share. I consider this a growing process and what Junior calls- a mature confession. I'm not asking for ANYONE to hold my hand or AW at me when i talk about this. Blogging has always been my outlet and i do feel much better each time i type it all out. I also think this is why after so many years, people still come by and read my blog. Its because i'm real and i blog about what's real. I don't hide what i feel, if i slip - i admit that i slip. if im on the floor sobbing, i will admit it too. I can go on forever on this topic but l'll leave it here because theres soooooo much more i want to blog about lol

I DIGRESS.

During the trip I confessed many things to her and i feel like we understand each other a lot more. One thing is for sure though- i now stand by even more and have faith that one day things will work out for you C. You are strong, a fighter and again this is just one of those blowouts that will turn into an eventual win for you. A win that will be for life. Greater things have yet to come for you. Love you lots!

Totally random kids, but for my girl readers.
You guys know that i'm not big on purses and bags right? I'm all about vintage purses and hobo bags. But after seeing these two pictures.

Wow. Pure class. 

I totally want a chanel bag now. Especially the BLUE one. Holymoly. I wonder if its real? Can anyone confirm for me? Anyhoo that's just a thought.

Let's see what else is up. Oh yes- the other day i went engagement ring shopping with someone (for the nature and secrecy of the proposal....i cannot disclose how close i am to this person because it would be busted if the girlfriend EVER comes by my blog) and it was SO educational. Who knew diamonds can be SO complex? Okay bad question, it is complex. Its not like buying romaine lettuce (okay maybe it is. LOL INSIDE JK ONLY jay siu & K understands).....where u can just CHOOSE something. So here i was walking around claiming to be his xxxxxx (again, cannot reveal the nature. might compromise the secrecy) and im asked to try on the rings for him. Man, i hate engagement rings. For someone like me that is so into weddings i absolutely HATE them. I feel like they are unnecessary and as ive expressed my opinion many times before, i think my future husband should just effing skip the engagement ring and buy me a really beautiful diamond crested thick thick wedding band. Then spend the duration of the money on photography. hahaha just saying. We made our rounds around Yorkdale and it was SO brutal and draining. All that sparkle totally blinded me. I was glad to finally had my delicious Caesar, YARD of beer (fuckery i think i have a small liking for beer now) and Poutineeeeee at Honest Lawyers with xxxxx (no need to explain right?) joining us shortly. Overall it was a great day - im whole-heartedly honoured to be the one you chose to ask to go ring shopping. I really can't wait for the wedding. I think it would be very heart-wrenching.

But wow. It is almost midnight, this entry really did almost take two hours to write. Back to present day being Christmas Eve. I really thought today was going to be depressing. This year (aside from being brutally sick for the past couple of days!!!! omgosh) i opted out to go to ANY family outtings. To those that talk to me on a regular basis would know why so i don't want to repeat. That said things were done traditionally....for a very long time. Suddenly i have no idea what to do since the tradition is no longer in place. That said i am forever grateful for my day today. I was actually.....not sad. lol I've actually been...pretty happy lately. Thank you.

So here I am now, all snugged up in my germ-infested bed, my Forever Nuts (nom nom nom) tea with a gigantic dash of honey and a pill im ready to take to knock myself out - but not before i make my rounds of Merry Christmas via text/bbm/fb.

One thing i must say though before i end this- holy shit i AM giving a fuck. Taking it one day at a time.

No such thing as getting burned again yo. Not for me....

WoooOOO dont you guys love open-ended, metaphorical ramblings from me?!??

Tis officially 12:00am people.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!!!!

Stay beautiful. Thanks for staying with me. Hope you all enjoyed the glamorous, belated post! Expected a similiarly long/longer post to close the New Years (ive even started writing a bit of it!).

Be excited!!!!

My drugs are next to me. After seeing C its K/O for me!

outs.

OUTS!

Oh so cold

Hmm feels like i havnt blogged in a while - you guys are in for a treat. i am in total blogging mode so theres stuff for you guys to actually read instead of fffound pictures or random spur of the moment thoughts i have.

Currently i am at my usual Starbucks, freezing my ass off because i am sitting RIGHT by the door (for plugs...or else i would not torture myself like that) at the handicap table with my iced cold drink (that my SB crush made for me......he has never made me a drink so im quite happy).

Quick Side Story of my Life- so one of the main reasons why i go to this SB (aside from it USUALLY having free plugs and its closest to my house) is because i have a huge crush on one of the baristas here. I swear i sit here and he probably catches me staring at him with my lustful creepy hungry eyes. Anyways the funny thing is that he is no futbol player-looking guy but this skinny lil fobby guy. The funnier thing is that i actually blush (seriously, Kay blush? ah. doesnt happen) and STUTTER when i do my ordering. Its like my brain goes into retard mode and i forget how to speak or something. I think the absolute worst part is when i order i mess up my drink orders. I recall this one time i ordered a MEDIUM iced green tea. He just smiled politely and punched in a tall for me. It was a very FML moment because its such a rookie mistake!!! Not even rookie! NOOB. Pure Starbucks Noob Fail right there. Especially because i am there OFTEN, he KNOWS i am not a noob. UGH. Thinking about it makes me embarrassed.

I also noticed that he tries to avoid taking or making my order. It makes me very sad.

But that just makes me that much more smitten and attracted to him. haha.

Watch he's probably 18. Apparently ive taken an interest in youngins lately. Its major Pedo Bear alert.

I digress. Back to my time at Starbucks.

......Hoping that i can get some blogging done before i head home for dinner. I find Starbucks is a great cure for hangovers but today i think i might just get a cold instead from all these fuckers that keeps on opening the door so much. Seriously people, do you need to open the door THAT WIDE??

Ive also been trying to download this one file since 1pm (2 hours later) ive restarted it THREE times already. Fuck. Not meant to be or something?!?!

Anyways, last night was K's highly anticipated amazing 25th Birthday Party that we've been planning for since JUNE. I am so glad that it went so smoothly and it was so so much fun. There was so much stress involved in the prep from envelope fuck ups (my fault), venue issue, and other stuff and to see it come together and everyone enjoying themselves (especially K) is a great satisfaction. The place we went to was really nice. Somehow K also managed to get herself a DJ which changed the mood of the party completely and because of that i got much more intoxicated than i planned to. Happy 25th Birthday dear!!! I hope it was absolutely amazing!!!! =]]]

That said just a quick retrack. LAST weekend was my lovely cousin's 24th birthday @ an ASIAN KARAOKE place. From what i do recall, it was actually most of the guy's first time at an Asian Karoke so it was nice to see that they enjoyed themselves. Being the wonderful cousin i am, i went ahead and prepped as many surprises as my limited bank account allowed me to do. And obviously i got myself plastered almost as badly as she did (PWHAHA) and met myself a couple of new fob friends. I love meeting people who enjoys singing sad chinese songs in public places with me. There aren't many of those out there.  But yes, Happy 24th Birthday to my Cousin!!!!! Next year is going to be EPIC. I know it!!!!!

Pics to come for both events on fb soon!

There's THREE more days until Miami!!!!!!!!!!!!! And i know it is going to FLY because i have something to do every single one of those days until the day of my flight. There's SO much i need to do but i am EXCITED out of my mind. C and I need this trip. Desperately.

Second Home

This is our second home whenever a huge match is on. Loves it here. I think the owner loves us too : )
My life is pretty much on hold for about 2 hours whenever a huge futbol match is on (like today). And what's really sad is i am STARTING to not mind the taste of beer..........yuck. i know.

Anyways dont have much to say. The other night was le cousin's anniversaire à le karoke avec all you can drink and we rightfully got plastered. I'm waiting for her pictures so i can jack them and load them on my fb lol I hope she enjoyed her birthday this year!! i really tried my best to make it really awesome!

Up next is K's 25th!!! Going to be so so much fun!!!

oh. btw people. Im going to Miami next week. (80% confirmed).

Thought l'll share.

Our Adventure to find the perfect Futbol Bar

As everyone know (from my status updates, tweets and share-age of excitement) yesterday was my International Friendlys Day for FIFA and as most people would have noticed, i was MISSING IN ACTION for pretty much the entire day (i'm sorry!). A and I really thought our day was going to be "smooth" because we've been planning for this day for a while now. She took the day off of work (hardcore) and the plan was to spend our entire day at Philthy McNasty's with the England vs. France game until it was time for MWDC.

Nopes. Did not happen.

• The day started quite pleasant with Flapjacks as a light Brunch over the Brazil and Argentina game (which Argentina won and i was extremely happy about only because of Messi). 
• We head out for Philthy McNasty, parked for a total of.....9 minutes?!?! Paid 12 dollars for 9 minutes. Why?
• Because freaking Philthy McNasty did NOT have the channels playing our game
• We stood there as the manager (i guess) was flipping through the channels and appears to be flabbergasted with himself on WHY he did not have the channels (or "packages" as he referred to them as) to watch the International Friendlys.
• UGH. BUDDY. DO NOT PROMISE/OR SAY YOU HAVE IT IF YOU ARE BASING IT PURELY BASED ON THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE 30+ SPORTS RELATED CHANNEL. 
• We left...IMMEDIATELY because it was 5 minutes into the game and we concluded over BBM that the situation was hopeless and we MUST leave to find a place that's playing it. 
•  We ran up and down Yonge (i believe....or could have been eglington. Doesn't matter. We RAN) going into multiple pubs and bars asking if they could play the game for us. 
• NO LUCK.
• Life was completely hopeless. A mustve been so devastated. We got into the car and was ready to zoom back to her place to stream the game when i noticed a couple more places and i suggested that we REALLLLLY should try to see if they were because i really didn't want to be at home watching these games (doesn't feel the same). 
• I go into a couple more places when one of the bartenders suggested i go across the street to this place call "Main Event" and more than likely they ARE playing it?
• Indeed they were. 
• God loves us.
• We parked AGAIN. This time paid 2 dollars for about 17 minutes. Why again?
• We were SO ecstatic about finding a place that was playing a game that we RAN to the pub (The Main Event) in time to watch France score one on England. 
• Obvs, A went crazy cheering for France (her team).
• While it was a good goal that i happily cheered for too, this man at the bar tapped me on my shoulder and pretty much said, "Tell your friend there to" [ insert hand slit to throat gesture ]. It was pretty loud at the pub and i replied, "excuse me? i dont understand.". He answers, "THIS IS AN ENGLISH PUB. TELL YOUR FRIEND TO *insert hand slit gesture again* OR SHES GOING TO *insert hand slit gesture*.
• Erm. I totally tried to calm A down and whispered to her that we were in an ENGLISH pub and that man pretty much is going to kill you if you don't contain your excitement.
• For the next 14 minutes of the game (there was about that much time left before half-time) while A watched it, i was busy calling MORE pubs to watch the games elsewhere because i know for a fact they were not going to switch over to the Spain vs. Portugal game and i feared for A's life. lol 
• I called the Football Factory (our usual pub) and indeed they were playing it AND they were willing to reserve a booth for me to watch my Spain game in private. 
• UGH UGH. CANT BELIEVE WE DID NOT GO IN THE BEGINNING.
• i told the girl that we were at another bar and we are going to fly over during half time like real devoted fans.
• Oh and don't forget the fact that we paid 10 dollars cover (EACH) and downed a pitcher of beer in 14minutes as well. And left RIGHT at half-time. So not worth it.
•  We head over to the Football Factory in record time in time....while tipsy.
• Quick back story on why we didn't go to the Footback factory in the FIRST PLACE.
  So we called ahead of time to discover that they were charging a ten dollar cover. Don't know why we did not want to pay that "ridiculous" cover and decided we can find somewhere else that won't charge cover.
• Clearly we were wrong. We now know better to never hesitate in needing to pay cover for a GUARANTEED, non-hostile, no-death-threat, fun, exciting time.
• Our lesson costed EACH of us about 70 ish dollars. When it really could have just costed 40....in TOTAL.  
• We had a BLAST there. We even met a French guy! haha 
• I was actually a tad bit disappointed because they actually were not able to show me the Spain vs. Portugal game. I was the only fan there in my jersey and was really sad!!! 
• The owner felt terrible that he couldnt carry out his promise of showing the game. And so to compensate for that he gave us poutine and yagerbombs on the house. 
• He really didn't have to. I am still returning either way lol
• But its still pretty awesome that we got freebies.
• I stayed true to my words and took three tequlia shots to mourn Spain's brutal defeat by portugal. 
• Sighs. : (
• Then off we went for Pho....slightly tipsy and then back to A's place to wait for the kids to go for more drinking.

Pretty adventurous!!! If i would say so myself.

I missed the game completely and i am so upset about the loss. UGH i need to download the game to see what went wrong1!! i feel completely defenseless because i didn't watch the game and  i dont know how to retaliate if i stumble upon a Portugal fan and they happen to be smug about it. i am seriously upset and screw you all for making fun of me. lol

That said- Football Factory, we will never, EVER turn our backs on you AGAINNNNNNN.

Done and done

Okay i think i am done with clubbing for the next little while. I was looking through my agenda and ive actually gone clubbing every weekend for the past MONTH. Two of those weekends were back to back which is absolutely MADNESS.

This week is going to absolutely flyyyyyyyyyyyy.
Work, Gym, Futbol Wednesday, MWDC and Harry Potter 7!!!!!!!!!!

weekend

omg i actually survived this weekend.
i went to sleep and woke up at 8am to catch the Arsenal game at 830 just because a specific prince charming player was on the bench and i wanted a glimpse of him. Can you say devotion? haha

anyways l'll blog more later and upload pics on fb soon for ppl to look at!

I'm Ready for Halloween Again

I'm feeling this you guys.

LOL

I know i know. You are crazy Kay. WHATEVER. I get to hold a fucking wand. How many of you can say you can hold a wand. Pwahhah I found ONE of my costumes for next year.

RECAP: Halloween Extravagenzaaa

Why do i love halloween? Because i can dress up as a slut and not be JUDGED. Haha over the years i find that Halloween has become the "day" where girls can dress slutty and not feel bad about it. It's also a day where if you are taken- you tend to want to ditch the boyfriend to be single for one night. I think guys who has girlfriends have every right to be concerned to be honest haha

Anyways so everybody knows Halloween is MY holiday. It is probably the only holiday i would spend massive amounts of money supporting (Christmas might actually even come second behind that because im pretty cheap). This year i pushed it and partied three nights in a row-

UTSC (Open Bar) FEAR Party where I was a "Distraught Sailor maiden awaiting her tall, dreamy fernando torres look-alike sailor to come back from sea....while having a few drinks".

• It was an open bar party that did not serve shots. fail fail fail. 
• There was only two "bars" serving about 300 rowdy, demanding university kids wanting to get the most out of open bar. Clearly it did not work out.
• The dinner was crappy banquet food. I think the best part of my dinner was the sad dinner roll.
• The music however was the best and most amazing music i have ever danced to in my entire "going out" life. Hands down. 2001-2003 Top 40s were played and i'm sure the youngins did not recognize. A solid track of Socca was played (Love. R and Cousin knows that's my high), even Justin Bieber was played but obviously i froze and decided id rather get myself more drunk than to dance to him.
• I got a good buzz but it wasn't enough for an All you can drink fest.

TruBlood @ Club V where that night I was a "A morbid ER Vampire Nurse that was turned accidentally during sexy time with Damon Salvatore. Bite Marks evident all over body."

• I'm officially very fond of STRONG martini's now. 
• Nice small club that was filled with non-asians. We must've been the ONLY asians there. 
• Which was nice. Because that just mean's we were the center of attention! 
• Oh and 60% of the club didn't dress up (lameee), which made us look even more exotic and exciting.
• Don't remember much about the music- i was hugely distracted by the throbbing pain in my feet and True Blood was being played on the screens. I was kind of watching the episode while dancing haha
• I almost broke my fingers. It's visibly bruised and still hurts as i type with it. 
• Met up with a very, VERY drunk A and her girls for pho!!! They looked so so cute....when A's head was not down on the table. Haha The introductions were up to us.

And LASTLY, Masquerade Event @ Rockwood where i dressed up as something i've planned for a YEAR now which was a " Flirtatious Victorian belle sipping too strong martini's, in search of a perfect gent at the town masquerade ball."

• I honestly did NOT think i was going to survive a 3rd night of dancing in pumps and drinking
• Obvs, i survived. 
• I mentioned here that i was hoping someone can get me these shoes to wear as part of my costume right? Next thing you know- Cousin presents me my birthday present.
  
  

• FUCK I LOVE YOU.
• So noticed how earlier i felt like i wouldn't survive the night? Yeah i survive the night BECAUSE OF THESE SHOES. They are the MOST comfortable shoes i have ever worn in my life. I compare that feeling of comfort to wearing my runners. That is HOW comfortable they are. 
•  Thus my Cousin is effing awesome and gave me my wish of an AMAZING COMPLETE, COSTUME for Halloween aka my birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!
• My costume was actually part of a "group" thing with the girls, R and Cousin looked so fabulous in their gettup too. 
• We were actually EARLY at the club....for the first time in my life. It was a strange feeling. But we were able to get bypass and everything which was nice.
• To be very honest, i was SO drunk that everything from the moment we stepped onto the streetcar, everything is very foggy and fuzzy. i dont even remember if the music was any good, i don't remember people's costumes, i don't remember who i saw (no that's a lie, i saw many people i did NOT want to see), i don't remember what we danced to. Oh man. Not good. 
• By the end of the night i was actually sick of drinking and i don't recall even drinking much from the bottle we bought
• which btw was SO sketch because we didn't get a booth but got a SIDE TABLE by the stairs. Some VIP service we got. argh. 
• Met up with C and went home with her at the end of the night.

Ahhh that's it? lol Thanks to everybody who went along with my madness. You guys have no idea what it means to me, to be able to go out and celebrate halloween like this. I'll load pics on fb once i steal em from people's cameras lol HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE! UNTIL NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which i already know what i am going to be.

Weekend done. Birthday week starts? woot woot. teehee.

Like G6

Okay during the summer, my "club" song was Usher's OMG.
I think for the fall/winter, its Far East Movement's Like a G6.

.......

i absolutely use to hate this song. Ugh. FAK! SO ADDICTED NOW!!!

Last night was pretty epic and full of youngins.
Halloween Part 2 of 3 continues tonight biatches. Trublood Style!

Halloween et more.

Kids. I am going to attempt 3 days in a row partying. Thursdays, Friday and Saturday.

Currently going for 4 (Sunday).

Random:

• I still need to go replace my bank card.  
• Gotta go buy a cheap agenda so i can use it for FUTBOL SCHEDULING! God, Eurocup, Premier League, NT Friendlies, LaLiga, ChampsLeague. It gets SO SO confusing and my normal agenda is not doing the job.
• i should really go see a physio. Combat twice since my month break and i'm scared that something will "rip"/"pull" again
• That said im chunky again. Sad face. RIGHT BEFORE HALLOWEEN TOO. omfg. FML Face Palm
• This is London Saturday- Warm up for next week.
• Must do halloween trial-look this weekend
• I actually look more like a maid awaiting a good banging more than anything else....sadly. THERE GOES CLASSY (slutty).
• Oh yes. and it's my birthday soon. Woop dee do.  
• Oh. and i am also going to Vegas. WHATTT.

BYE.

Week Review & Friday Catch-Up

It seems like recently I have been dedicating my Friday nights to be "rest my liver and wallet" nights and also the night that allows me to catch up with my blogging. I swear that was all i wanted to do today. I went out to hunt for the key pieces of my Halloween costume (which btw, i am extremely content to say that my outfit is 80% done!!! All that is missing at the moment is the jewelery piece *which is SHIPPED & on its wayyy*, my maskkk *which is trapped at customs! sobs* and gloves!) that took up pretty much the entire morning. Met up with someone, ran errands, dealt with a lot of frustration on the side all the while wanting to just sit down in front of my laptop and catch up on my blogging!!!!

For anybody who gives a damn, but I got a call-back for one of the positions that i applied for asking for references. Hmm that must be the first reference check ive gotten in YEARS. I hope the rat says good things. i REALLY need the extra cash flow. I'm also actually looking forward to starting work again with Albie because again, extra cash flow!!! Halloween is going to DRAIN me kids.

But i do have a message for friends.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Friends,

Can someone buy me my birthday present a couple of weeks early? Preferably by the 30th of this month so i can wear it to my Halloween parties?

I would LOVEEEE to wear these shoes as part of my costume!!!! Or even the all black laced-up version. They are 49.99 (or maybe theyre 59.99) from Payless Shoes @ Fairview. Size 6.5 or 7 please!!!!

Please don't forget that i treat Halloween like its my birthday therefore by giving me an amazing Halloween it means giving me an amazing birthday.

TEEHEE

Love,

K

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

YO. Another thing. People. I need hangers. Please txt me when you see a place that has hangers on sale!!!! I have clothes folded/layed/stuffed away everywhere in my room and its not good for the soul. Also my mom is concerned that it will attract bugs (?!?!?!?) so to rid of my mom's concern- i. need. to. buy. hangers.

THANKS.

Another meet-up with the kids tomorrow and then to see C on Sunday! The week has been way too long without our midweek meetup.

For this week (and even last), i feel like i've totally wasted it by not being productive. I'm going to make a promise to myself that next week's productivity will be triple of what it was for the past two. I really need to finish my portfolio site, complete K's invite project, start applying for jobs again and some stuff i can't think of before the other projects start-up.

Alright. Until next week another entry? Haha

Gah. I hope not because being productive also means blogging once a day for all you lovely people.

Enjoy the SIX entries (scroll down bitches) i wrote for your amusement lovely peoples. I hope i make sense. So much words makes me a little confused sometimes. OKAY. HUNGRY. BYE.

Terrible

THERE. I UPDATED. 
Scroll down. hahah

and i am STILL one entry behind (todays).


But i am SO tired. I am SOOO drank out....until Wednesday that is. For MWDC hahah

So instead of having Thanksgiving Butter Chicken my parents opt for Thanksgiving Hot Pot.

WHATTTT. hahah



Okay. I guess that's it. I dont even have the energy to be witty. I maxed out my blogging quota for today.

Nights!
