GGGB Weekend Wrap-up #5: Last Minute Plans

Point form, because it's Monday so I'm not capable of making cohesive sentences into paragraphs...

• Lately, Sumo has been our go-to spot for a quick, cheap ($20 for both of us) and filling lunch; it's just so annoying that they have the worst service ever though.
• Tako sometimes thinks he's a groundhog, digging underneath the blankets and scratching the mattress - madd cute.
• Who cares about nutritional value, it's all about delitional value. LOL
• After chilling in Ray's room with everybody, finally picking where to eat dinner, having people go home and change/shower, pulling cash out from the bank, gripping a bottle of Bombay, running over to Safeway to get Orange, Mango and Cranberry Goji juice, heading to Sam's house so she could change her shoes, getting picked up by James again, pre-drinking back at Ray's, getting a ride down to Flames Central from his dad... After all that, come 10:45PM we arrived and were ready to have a good time.
• Happy birthday Tyson! Thanks for hooking us up with $10 dollar tix buddy.
• Lindsay Lohan supposedly has a warrant out for her arrest, it would've been perfect for her to hide out in Canada... but she was nowhere to be found =(.
• "DJ Turbantables" = way siiicker alias.
• Highlight of the night: definitely when My President Is Black came on. You know you are going buck when black guys pull out their camera phones and start filming YOU dancing to that song. HAHAHA
• Always so good to see/bump into people you haven't seen in a long time, especially at the bar because everybody is wasted and is that much more excited when reunited.
  
• Paid for half of the cab ride home in loonies, how rude of us.
• Slept at the boyf's again, he passed out before me while somehow I managed to stay up and watch HIMYM.
• 2-9PM shift - the usual Saturday.
• Yes, best feeling in the world thinking you're getting paid a certain amount and then opening the paycheque to see that its higher than what you planned for.
• First official Prestige Worldwide practice was held Saturday night; I missed the boyf's breakaway goal because I was out getting hot chocolate. Worst gf timing ever =(
• "We wish all the girls were here!" You mean all 4 of us? LOL
• Late night visit from the boyf after I was done with my homework, only to make grilled cheese and watch an episode of BB - a great end to my weekend. Wouldn't have it any other way.

GGGB Weekend Wrap-up #1: He's Back!

Usually I'd be stressed out that it's Sunday because like I said before, there's so much work to be done. Nope no sir not the case today because the following week is READING WEEK! Not to mention the fact that I didn't get scheduled to work until Saturday... =/ so I really do have a whole 5-day-work-week off to just chill and cause some trouble (and by that I mean sit back and relax). Although I have a couple of projects that I should get started on soon, other than that I'm grateful that the majority of my tests (crammed one after the other) are done and over with going into the break. Bittersweet.



Moving back a bit to Friday: picked up Raymond from the airport, went to his house and unpacked, learnt some beginner chords for the Uke, ate pho for lunch, caught up on GG, HIMYM and FOtheC, munched on a bag of US-exclusive spicy cheetos, and literally took a 4hr nap. Meanwhile all of our friends were at M1, but you know us not very big fans of the bar - although it sounded like it was a Mcnally reunion and actually would've been nice to see everyone. Ohhhh well. After we woke up, we went to go eat Peking duck -- yeah, we still go there.



Saturday: finally had that morning brekkie with the friends (they loved it, they thought it was pfantastic), then headed to work for 2PM, was off by 9PM, then had Valentine's dinner with the boyf, the FPOE and his KPP. Thanks for dinner babe, yet another Vday down.



Tomorrow is Family Day, and I believe the sibs and I are going boarding at COP, as we do every year on this day. Usually dad takes us, but he took advantage of the long weekend and flew to Phoenix to get his golf on. So we're taking the lil' bro ourselves... and when I say "lil' bro", I mean the almost-taller-than-me-15yr-old who just got his first pimple (on his chin) yesterday hahahah.
Yay, don't care if it's not LL or Nakiska; I'm just excited to use my board and hit the slopes again.

10 Things From Today #1: Snow, School & Rihanna

1. I didn't even realize it was snowing today (my blinds were closed), until I read The FPOE while blowdrying my hair this morning. So much for my "nice weather" post yesterday.
2. I bought a Noodle Time bowl for lunch and when I went to fill it up with hot water, I walked to the coffee dispenser instead and didn't notice until I had already poured some coffee in. [insert those 3 letters here, you know which ones]
3. Gunna have to miss this week's class again, sorry Mina. See you next week though babe, promise! LOL
4. Current state of mind: Prioritizing
5. Came to school without the laptop, and have come to realize that I focus so much better without it (obvs). Along with miPhone, both are self-induced distractions that I need to get rid of, so from here on in I'm banning myself from bringing them to lectures. Wish me luck!
6. The boyf got his internet connection working =); 3 more days left.
   
7. 50's started at work this week; great, another temptation to spend money.
8. Is it weird that I emailed my PSYC professor a Youtube link to this video after learning about the Perception of Optical Illusions? The answer is yes, but I did it anyways.
9. I purchased the American Apparel black Nylon Tricot leggings; I have yet to find an outfit to make them work.
10. Still unable to wrap my head around the CB x Rihanna news.
    

The Cult Club

I have a new found love for those who are able to hand make epic projects of their own.*

I landed on Itsumi's blog the other day and despite not being able to read some of her text, her posts are dope. You could translate the blog thru the sidebar; but I'd much rather indulge in the mystery of not knowing what she's saying, and try to figure out her strange photos. Regardless, she has become famous on the blogosphere for her knock-off knits of Chanel and just recently opened up an Etsy shop called the Cult Club to sell them. Her logo of course is cleverly a pair of mirrored C's, so suitable!





Right now there's only the earrings in the shop but here are some others that were posted on her blog:

This next one isn't a knit, but I know that whatever it's made of will trigger your childhood memories:







Anyone know what that stuff is called?! It's going to bug me until I find out... well all I remember is that YOURMOM needed to iron it for you.



Ouch!



*I wanted to include Yokoo in this post, but RSA already beat me to it on The FPOE. You should check her shit out too.
