And to think I'm moving next week.

Moved my cousin and his family into his new home.
My back hurts.
Saw my god-daughter for the first time.
She's incredibly presh.
Woke up hella earlz for this one.
Slept for 2 hours, yay.
Ate about 5 donuts and a sandwich.
Drove back and forth around Guelph.
Loaded and unloaded.
Drove an hour back to MDV.
Got a call saying I didn't have to go to work.
Drove an hour back to Guelph.
Unloaded a few cars and a truck.
Didn't wear proper shoes.
My fault, I know.
Just got home.
Missed Jersey Shore.
I have work in the morning.
But I don't think I'll be able to get out of bed
because I will be suffering from a broken vertebrae.

you'll never guess.

8 Days.

My dear,

Never let yourself get sidetracked.
Nothing else matters as long as you know where you want to go and who you want to be.
Don't let things ruin your day, because in the end there will always be people there to help you and those who have your back no matter what.
People love you, and they will do anything out of their way to guide and push you forward.
Leave all the past behind, keep your head up and continue on to the future.
Nothing can break you down, or hold you back.

Lost and Found....and missed.



Circa 2000, when I used to wear bracelets up to my elbow.
I found these old bracelets in my grandma's old purse.
I've been using this purse for months...
...I guess I didn't check all the pockets.
Tbh, I was looking for my iPod.
I think this is much more rewarding.

Aritzia

Founded in Vancouver but that isn't where their top selling stores are found.
Aritzia Toronto Eaton Centre has the highest volume of customers, but is only second to Aritzia Yorkdale in overall sales.

...I could name the brands if I wanted...but I don't.


LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
DAMN $40 TOP I DIDN'T NEED
:(

Time.

There really isn't much of it...
I honestly don't know where my head has been these past few days.
I've been to Toronto pretty much everyday this week except for today.
Looking for work, going to interviews...wishing myself luck and getting my hopes up.
All this mess has got me thinking about the time I have left at home,
All the time I'll be spending at my new home,
And all the time I'll be wanting to come back to this home.
I'm not just getting my hopes up for the job, I'm getting my hopes up for this new place.
That "concrete jungle" that I'll be living in for the next few years.
I don't want to get too caught up in growing up...
...after all, I'm only seventeen...
All that freedom, that liberty at last...
What the hell am I going to do with it?
I better put it to good use...and not waste my time away.
I don't want to be preoccupied with unnecessary things and people.
...even though they'll surround me.....
NTS: Avoid grenades and landmines!
Aka things that will take you in the opposite direction of where you want to go.
Anyways, 13 days left.
Less than two weeks.
Y/N.
Good/Bad.
Bittersweet, I guess.
My heart just seized up thinking about it.

So there's this cat.

Who likes to sit on strangers' porches,
and stare at them,
and scare them,
and wins staring contests,
and also people's hearts (I guess),
and hopefully it's okay,
but I wouldn't know.
All in all, it's off my porch.
...thank goodness.

Friday nights and city lights

So it went like this:
Downtown job hunting with Linda>Ikea>back downtown to the apartment to assemble what we bought at Ikea>Home.
I left at 9am....and it is now 11:50 pm.
CAN I JUST MENTION THAT I DID NOT BUY ANYTHING BUT BUS FARE TODAY?!
...and I guess spent 99cents on 4 digestive cookies and $5 on crappy pho :/
BUT STILL. Payday was yesterday, and I spent none of it on clothes.
Pocket's feeling good right now!

ps. Queen West, like ACTUAL Queen West, is a to-do list item.

Cute dress, where'd you get it?

"That is the ugliest effing dress I've ever seen."

Thanks for the lovely and awful laughs today you two.
Don't get hit. Instead, be the one that does the hitting ;)
Why is it red? It's because we're awesome <3

Farewell 'til you know me well.

Tired out, not a miracle in days.
Deciders for the lonely whispering tears.
You try out for nothing, then you drop dead.
Not a miracle in years.
Leisure for the lonely, whispering unnecessarily unless you're in.

Brb,

I'm at a creative standstill....again.
fuck.

DEAR INTERNET:

I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD LET YOU KNOW THAT THERE ARE 28 DAYS LEFT UNTIL I LIVE IN ONE OF THE GREATEST CITIES IN THE WORLD.
ps. I never write here anymore...
