Relax, Take It Easy

Been sick for the last couple days , AGAIN! but it does give me an excuse to do absolutely nothing for an evening. I thought i would have myself the typical girly night. Painting nails, reading magazines, smoothies, movies, blogs, music and maybe a little bit of sewing. Sound good to you ? Mum and Dad went to a church concert so it's very relaxing. School has been kind of tiring lately, but at the same time, boring. Math AP is almost kind of a little bit fun. Once you got the formulas down and it just flows it is enjoyable. So i am a nerd, what can you do?

Some people in my life lately have really been getting on my nerves though. It seems i spend a lot of time with rather self centered people. I don't want this blog to be a big complain fest, so that is all i'll say. But do you have any tips on how to handle someone like that ?


I just found this cute print from Shira Sela. I love it , plus she is from Montreal. I badly want to take a trip out there.

I have officially fallen in love with NeverShoutNever aka Christofer Drew. All of his songs are so darling! Every single one of his songs just makes me want to smile and dance away my days :) Plus he's got mad style.

A new spring

Yesterday felt like the first day of spring, real spring! i felt the happiness blooming in the air. After church and dinner with the family, i set up a little crafting space in our backyard, put in my head phones and got to work. But Alberta didn't want me to get any art done and made it far far to windy to do anything worth looking at. It was lovely while it lasted though. I felt like having a spring outfit, but at the same time keeping the hair out of my eyes. So i threw on a silk scarf, turban style, as inspired by this post.
A little Springy inspiration for today :

New Specs and Synchro

Hello there :) Just thought i'd let you know about a little update on my face.

Some nice classic black RayBans.
I was pretty excited because i got them in like an hour. Although i do miss my huge ones, because i really used to them, and i school i am kind of known for them. I may get another pair on Zenni.
Today i also went to one of my best friend's synchronized swimming show. I was so proud of her and she received the Most Improved Swimmer award. :) She is so adorable.


I thought this was cute and true too :)

I must admit .

I must admit, that this young man is quite talented. I just saw the J Biebs Never Say Never movie and it was so cute. I am not the kinda girl that bows down to boys like this, but he seems like a really good person and has real talent. Plus ya know he is a Canadian lad, so it helps. Went with a bunch of friends and anything is fun with them.
No school for a bit now, finished up my Social Ap exam yesterday and now it feels so strange not to have any homework whatsoever. Nice though.
Doing a lot of art lately, mostly watercolors with some pastels too. Hopefully be posting some pictures soon.

Lazy Day [Going Riding]



So i've had the house to myself this weekend, and as it is quite pleasant, it does get a bit boring as well. I thought i would walk to the Starbucks just down the road, but i woke up to a full out blizzard! that's right you read correctly, april 2nd in alberta and its snowing like there's no tomorrow. It's almost like we are back in Mani! I do love this kind of day though, but i was getting used to not wearing tights or leggings with everything! it feels cozy though, makes me feel like watching The Holiday.
But now that i have some time, here is my outfit today:

- sweater : American Eagle (christmas gift)
- t shirt : Gap (unknown)
- leggings : Hue ($15)
- socks : Chapters/Indigo ($7)

Do you like my equestrian style leggings? i saw them on sale at The Bay and i thought they were quirky and cute, so i bought them. I am a huge fan of Hue!

What about my hair ?

So i was thinking, i should probably grow my hair out. Because i am so jealous of all the things you can do with long hair, like BRAIDING *sigh*, and a messy bun and everything else. Even though i didn't like my long hair when i had it, i thought i could try again and see how it goes. So, i am officially growing my hair out, so i can do things like this ..


What's your dream hair due?
