What do you mean I'm less than 3? TECH-NO-LOGICAL RO-MANCE

Credit: Unknown

I'm becoming a bit of a tech whiz [if you can even call it that] between, blogger, twitter, facebook and tumblr, I'm becoming a bit of an internet addict. Yes, that is exactly how I'm prefacing the announcement that I'm on formspring. Because I'm sure all four of you have questions you're dying to ask me. Or not, that's cool too.

Also, my awesome friend Emily has a Tumblr that I'm thoroughly enjoying.

With love and keyboards

Carey Mulligan

Just saw An Education, and although I found it to be all over the place in certain aspects, I liked it, and enjoyed the aesthetic. I love the early sixties as a time period anyway. And could Carey Mulligan be any cuter? I think not.

Olympics

I don't think I've ever watched the Olympics as much as I have the past couple of days. My reading week has involved waking up at noon, turning on the coverage and then watching with my roommates until midnight more or less. It's kind of cool having it in Canada though, and although that "I Believe" song makes me want to puncture my eardrums, I'm very proud of my countrymen.

Boldness

Having the ability to surprise myself, and exceed my own expectations. It's a wonderful feeling. Even better, when you just do it without giving it much thought. I think people need to strive for that more.

With love and beehive hairdos

Happy Valentine's Day

Found: Le Love

"February is mid-winter. February 14th is mid-February. Therefore February 14th is mid-mid winter, the bleakest day of the year. Also love is celebrated" - Lemony Snicket Calendar

This is my first Valentine's day single in awhile. Although, my ex-boyfriend wasn't even in the country last time. Well neither was I. I was in Florida with my family so it wasn't the pity fest it could have been at the time.

Now, I have mixed feelings about the holiday. I like the sentiment but hate the execution. I'm not the type of girl that expects flowers, and candy or anything expensive on the day. [And as a side note, diamonds are the worst thing you can get a girl for Valentine's Day. I mean how are you going to top that? You're setting yourself up for failure there]. My ex and I didn't make a big deal of it, because our anniversary was like 10 days afterwards anyway, but in general I'd save the fancy dinner for a day like your anniversary anyway when restaurants aren't so crowded.

So, I don't know what my plans are. I feel like a movie night with my single roommates are in order. With treats and stuff. Yup, let's celebrate with copious amounts of junk food. And perhaps scary movies. That sounds delightful.

With love and candy hearts

In My Head You're All Brand New

New headphones! Pretty badass right?

My lovely roommate Mike helped me decide on them. [Well I did most of the decision making but he helped with the taking the reins and getting help from the workers there which is helpful due to my sometimes crippling social phobia. You know what I'm talking about Gillian.]

I don't know if my apple earbuds were just that broken or what, but the headphones feel like I'm being enveloped with music. And everything else sounds muffled which is odd, but I like it at the same time. Although I'm afraid people will be yelling for me and I won't be able to hear them... Oh well.

With love and surround sound.

Hey Party People!

School is being a bit of a drag lately, I've been sick/busy for awhile, but fortunately my school reading week is coming up.

Right now I'm on a hunt for new headphones. My little Apple earbuds are falling apart [literally, the front comes off every time I take it out of my ear]. In a bid for something new, I'm looking for those headphones that sort of orbit your head. They look badass.

And fortunately Future Shop is having a sale.

American Apparel

I have a pretty massive AA wish-list. It's so hard to narrow down what I want. And I live pretty close to one, although I'm pretty good at restraining myself.

Girls nights

My friend Abigail turned 19 the other day, so we celebrated at Jack Astor's and got multiple drinks. I've never really done that before, so it was fun having a girls night. Something we need to do more of. Although with a stricter budget.

Honey and lemon ginseng green tea

I see myself getting addicted to this. At least it has some benefits.

With love and Twisters

On the Bandwagon

Dudes, I got a tumblr. So, if it seems like I'm not posting much here, well look over there.

With love and copious amounts of pictures
