Secret Motives
Boyfriend's Hugo Boss shirt
I bought him this shirt when I was in Florida for five reasons:
- It's a v-neck
- It's Hugo Boss
- It was on sale
- I loved the color
- ...so that I could borrow it?

Remember These?
- The best work weekend schedule ever: Friday's and Sunday's off.
- Wishing the best of luck to you and your store, Nick!
- Convergence Café (formerly known as Koi) = a pretty daope location for a Goodbye Dinner. Classy yet chill, traditional dishes with modern twists... convergence at its finest. Order the Ninja Food (I know, right?!).
- Too many times have I gotten food "wrapped up" and forgotten it at the restaurant... FML.
- Canada is officially out of The Recession, kids... which means no more "We're in a recession," excuses/justifications. Now we can all go back to just being straight-up cheap. Whaaat, there's no need to hide it!
- Someone please tell me how a girl from Calgary can watch 500 Days Of Summer? Any local theatres? Anyone? Bueller?
- Picked up mi(new)Phone the other day. I've spent quite some time lately re-inputting contacts and info, uploading folders of photos, and basically customizing the shit out of it all weekend.
- So stoked on: picture messaging, having voicemail for the first time ever and GPS
- My friend and her boyf got a black cat and they named it Sookie. I hate cats, but that is the sickest name ever for one.
- Babe, don't forget to get True Blood tonight!
- ... and Entourage. We ♥ (downloading) our HBO series.
- The Visa® bill is almost paid off, and will be back in business shortly. Uh oh!
- Lately I've been having this strange urge to get something pierced, or tattooed... Uh oh! (x2)
- Ironically, my 2 pairs of Current/Elliott's are currently my favorite pairs of jeans.
- And aside from those, 3 days straight in my MJ shorts.
- You have 1 new friend request from Chris Diaz. Ohhh shit, Lil' Bro got FB!
- Prestige Worldwide "Boys Only" camping trip is under wraps, hopefully despite the gong show that I'm positive went down this weekend, the boys gets a win tomorrow night!
- Nudie Jeans Co. bean bag chair courtesy of HENRY
- More Florida 2009 posts? Comin' atcha, (ggg)uys and (ggg)irls.

Oh, Henry
{henry blog}
The HENRY™ blog is finally up! With their very own in-store Rebel at hand, check them out here to get the latest news and photos on what's in and on what's happening at their Calgary location. Seriously though how cute is their little Team?!
Wilfred x3
Wilfred cropped tank top / high-waisted skirt / bandeau, Forever 21 lace leggings.
- Yay for new silhouettes up top! I posted about this substitute for the boyfriend t-shirt earlier this month and I finally picked up my own once it hit the Sales Floor.
- My neeew favorite leggings, in the style of the well-coveted black laced Scout Ones. Best $10 dollars I spent there!
- To think that I could've gotten 8 pairs for the same price of 1 legit Scout pair... I'm kind of kicking myself in the butt now for not stocking up.
- I'm dark.
Ain't No Mountain
in front of Expedition Everest @ Animal Kingdom
As I'm sure you all know, I've just recently gotten back from a family vacation down to Orlando, FL. And right after that, literally the day after, my best friend and I road-tripped it over to the beautiful British Columbia, to hit up the Fairmont Hot Springs as we've been doing every Summer since 2006. Yeah, I'm dark now. Not only have I been on a slight hiatus from the Blog, but from Life itself, too. It's nice to getaway for a while, especially when it's with people you love to be around, but in the end it is just a getaway and you find yourself wanting to come back, no?
Yesterday was my first shift at work since my vacation, and it's funny how you can go almost 2 weeks without working only to come back to the Store and have everything still operate the exact same... retail is retail but it's the people that make the days different. That being said, on a heavier note, currently the atmosphere in the Store is somber and reminiscent; one of our girls that used to work with us got into a car accident this past weekend and has passed away. My thoughts and prayers go out to all friends and family affected by this terrible event.
After this week, I'll be starting to work full-time, 5 days a week, 8 hour shifts... meaning less blogging, more money. Oh and by the way, we hit 500+ posts not too long ago! Yay, go me. More milestones that are happening in my Life? Um, my iPhone randomly broke, so I'm heading off to buy the 3G today. I guess you could call that a milestone and I guess you could call that an upgrade.
Slowly getting everything back into order... have some "bills" to pay, a million things to post about, new clothes, new toys, I have yet to do my laundry, oh my gosh and Summer is halfway done already.

The Magic Of Disney
On Friday morning, my family and I will be jetsetting down to Orlando, FL for a much needed week-long vacation. 22, 19 and 15 aren't the prime ages to take your kids to Disneyworld but fuck it, I'm just excited to spend some time together. Seems like nowadays we're all over the place addressing our own current issues... can't wait to just get lost in the Magic of Disney. All over again.
