Night In

• Night in tonight. Using this as an advantage to get organized.

• Met the most beautiful dog at the Crowfoot Arena rink yesterday... yo, he's part tiger hey?
  
• That being said, I've learned my lesson the hard way and hope to carry my camera around as much as I can from now on (I used to rarely even carry purses, let alone a huge camera bag now). I missed out on taking sick pictures of Logan to share with you guys.
  
• Thank you for the chocolate trifle from Nectar, girls! ♥ so sweet. Just how we like it haha.
  
• I usually only get sick like twice a year; right now being one of those times.

Good Boy!

"Aw, I'm sad. You're better at it than I am." - me, upon looking at the photos taken by my boyf. Hahaha, am I jealous? Nah. I'm happy that I have someone who shares this interest with me, even more so at the fact that he's good at it.


Ok... this one's a lil blurry..








His Ever hoodie and Tako. What could be more comfortable?

GGGB Trend Spotting No. 4: The Stacker

Ring stacking. If you aren't familiar with this playful idea of layering your rings, I suggest you discover doing so, via Iosselliani's collection. The outcome is one of luxury, with a touch of creativity people are bound to notice. Plus, they make it easy for you, these come pre-stacked.

Be sure to check out the rest of their collection too, their jewelry is to die for!

First Batch, Half A Dozen

"I'm gunna be your muse, aren't I." HAHAHA, duh.


Randomly saw NYLON Guy's in a gas station, picked the issue up for him. (Cause BF'S/GF's do that for eachother ♥ hehe)


Kinda blurry (OOPS!), but I spy my style staple AA lamé leggings, the boyf's guitar, a stuffed penguin I got him for our first Christmas, and a Graduation 2006 frame, sans pictures?...


Special edition Dunny, paired up with a turnable set via a Kinder Surprise (I know right?! Siiick)


Photobooths, Johnny Cupcakes tissue. Memories on a DIY corkboard that completely lines a wall of his room.


City barbwire. Errr, city skyline in a moving vehicle.

Just In Time

• Diamond Dance-Off was a major disappointment, talk about a downgrade.
• Congrats, Senior Mr. Candance! HAHAHA good job, Cuz.

• Everybody got to play with the FPOE's Rebel that night, can't wait until I have one to call my own.
• I don't want you to go to bed, mad at me. And I don't wanna go to bed, mad at you.
  
• ACCT Quiz #4 yesterday, last one of the semester already!
  
• On the same note, girl stop texting me about our assignment on a FRIDAY night...

• So many birthdays, I love it! Always something to do.
• Julliard's tonight for Part 2 of LT's Birthday Celebration.

On the phone, rocking to the beat -- always sure look sweet,

Fine young lady standing by, c'mon baby sweet eye delight

GGGB Weekend Wrap-up #6: Productivity

FRIDAY

• Had ACCT Quiz #3 Friday; only 10 multiple choice questions can either be a great thing or a very, very bad thing.
• Met up with the boyf around 2PM, got ready for an afternoon downtown.
  
• Believe it or not we took the C-train down to City Center to get our errands done. Felt like the old days, haha.
  
• Completed: obtained Security Clearance Check and paperwork required for Fall 2009 for the boyf's BN and visited the T&Co counter to finally buy a new send out my broken beaded chain to get fixed by a goldsmith.
  
• Looked around Holts for a while, might as well. Saw Anne from Marc Jacobs, such a sweet SA for remembering us from my denim incident last year. Did I leave with anything? A replacement gold button for my Marc sweater, with a retail cost of free. Ballin'!
  
• I did however almost buy these adorable black Coach high tops but they didn't have my size. "It's a sign."
  
• Visited Henry Singer with the intentions of picking up Ray's water bottle that he forgot there the other day; ended up being introduced to everyone and talking to all the guys men there for a good half hour. It was chill.
• Should I go up a class? Determining the Pros and Cons of an offer.
• Met up with Kirk, Corey, Rusty, Jyes and Ale at the Hunn residence around 7PM, only to arrive to all of them doing homework in the living room, in silence. ON A FRIDAY NIGHT?
  
• All You Can Eat Sushi = Eat All You Can. Can You All Eat?
• Ended up at HiFi for KJ's birthday, see GGGB Photo Album #3.
• Girl, where are your shoes?! Good night, regardless if I was DD. Cue Saturday.
  

SATURDAY

• The usual, work 2-9PM. For once, the company is feeling the effects of the recession, except not in terms of sales =/ ...
  
• I love when my boyf calls me at work, especially when it's to make plans for a date later that night.
• Had a much needed movie night out, watched I Love You, Man at 10PM.
  
• Who is going to be your Maid of Honor/Best Man? Friends come and go, unfortunately I found it difficult to answer that right now.
  
• Came out of the movie a bit after midnight, only to find ourselves in another stupid snow blizzard!
  
• Prestige Worldwide 12:30-2AM practice in Chestermere? Still attended, despite the harsh driving conditions; those boys are dedicated I tell you.
• We finally got home around 3:30AM, had some late night snacks and drinks and then passed out ASAP! Perfect way to end an eventful night is falling asleep beside my boyf (who didn't shower after hockey practice, but I still love you). Hehe, cue Sunday.

SUNDAY

• Going to bed late = waking up late. Meaning 1 in the afternoon.
• What does it say about me that my shirts fit my girlfriend? HAHAHA
• Late lunch date at BP's; it's bittersweet when your server forgets about your order and it gets put "on the house". Saving money everyday, I tell ya!
  
• 3hrs later and I have to meet up with TP, DL and RN for a Manager's Meeting (and dinner) at Milestone's. Discussed very important issues for the store; madd confidential.
• Another eventful weekend in the life of GGGB, cue Monday.

2. There is a Prestige Worldwide practice tonight... at Midnight, and in Chestermere. You guys are crazy!
3. B4d me, you better go to your ACCT tutorial next Friday.
4. My boyf is so smart, helping me with my SOCI paper on Gangs. He knows so much 'cause he's in one. Just kidding.
5. Tita Bernadette called me today asking me if I could dance on the Coronation Night; honestly, I hesitated at first. I havent danced in so long I'm gunna have to choreograph something for myself.
6. Good thing Tuesday's with Mina has been doing my body good and keeping me flexible... hehe
7. PR = on layaway. One more month.
   
8. Does anybody know how to play the ukulele? She needs some lovin' I just don't know how to give it to her! I need somebody to teach me =(.

GGGB Weekend Wrap-up #3: Lilo And Stitch?

FRIDAY

• Typical Friday: go to my 3 classes, done by mid-noon, and then head straight to the boyfs and we have lunch together
• This Friday: spent 2 and a half hours in the waiting room of a clinic and if you don't know now you know nigguh that my boyf cut his foot walking into the shower getting ready for our lunch and had to get 5 stitches.

Brave boy, wearing his white leather Jack Purcell's with an open wound!

• Still went to Sumo for a late lunch; beef for me (I can't eat fish) and fish for you (he can't eat beef)


• When you're not looking to shop is when you find the best things.


• Sunridge is whack, especially on Fridays when all the kiddies are out of school and have nowhere else to hang out
• Bombay, OJ and Cran from Superstore


• We are cute, putting on fashion shows and choosing eachothers outfits for the night
  
• By the time Mikey, Sam, James, Marly and Long came over: alllready tipsy haha


• Late by 1 minute and you make us pay cover? Really?
• Music was dope, with some songs bringing me back to end of 05/start of 06
• Smoke breaks outside tend to stir up interesting conversations
• Somebody stepped on the boyf's foot (stiletto, he claims) and I couldn't last for a Round 2; time to go home, cue Saturday.
  

SATURDAY

• Not so eventful, worked 2-9PM


• Something I read earlier was bothering me the whole day and when I came home it got to me, just wanted to stay home.


• " You need to stop taking things too personal. "


• Instead the boyf came over, brought me a late night meal and we watched SNL. Thanks for cheering me up, cue Sunday.

SUNDAY

• TXT MSG RCVD: Dimsum at Central Grand, at 12:30 wanna go? Always down.


• My lucky looney got JT his new tatty, after previously unsuccessful ones getting him these two first


• The past couple of months has made me realize that I actually don't mind Winter and snow for once. Snowboarding, Ice Skating, and now... Toboganning?! Madd fun


• Brought the lil' bro out with us, and I'm glad we did.


• Attended a Managers Meeting from 6-9PM, chilled at Mikey's for a while, cue Monday.

This week may need me to lack in posts, I am slammed with homework, papers, and a Saturday morning midterm. It's been all play and no work, should be the other way around...
