TACO TUESDAY!!!!

Top of the Taco Tuesday to ya!!

Today I am super sleepy, yet super excited because:

A. It's PAYDAY!!!!
B. TACO TUESDAY!!!
C. Damien and Brad are coming over for TACO TUESDAY!!!
D. I'm going to KILL everyone at boardgames tonight!! MUAHAHA!!!

1 minute....my boss has rudely interrupted me in the middle of blog time...to be continued...

I'm upgrading my English 30 (so embarrassing), so I can get into my Public Relations program easier. I applied for open studies along with the PR program, so either way I'll be going to school, but I'd rather just get into the program right away...although I guess it doesn't really matter. ANYWHO I'm HCORE procrastinating right now!!! I have to read some essay and analyze it, then kill myself. Getting this assignment done is my goal of the day, so it just really has to happen!!!

I'm pretty sure Productive Stephanie died. I need to get her back! Last night I tried to go to yoga but instead ate Peanut M&Ms, Cadbury Mini Eggs, and white cheddar popcorn, which all went down smoothly with a bottle of wine! So instead of cleansing my gorgeous body, I dumped a shit ton of crap into it! Winning at life over here! Mmm wine :) Wine was really good last night, and I appreciate it so much more when I don't drink it every night!

I can't wait for TACO NIGHT!!!

Beauty and the Beast...3D!

Good Morning!!! Another Monday morning, and I'm only on my first cup of coffee! The weekend was another one for the books!! SO MUCH FUN!!!! There was laughing, crying, crazy bitches almost getting beaten up!!

Friday after work I was at the salon for 3.5 hours!! I have never read so many gossip magazines at once in my life! I thought my brain was going to explode...but maybe that was from all the chemicals on my head. I finally got home from the salon at 10:00pm, had a couple glasses of wine with Mel and fell asleep. Saturday was Kaitlyn's BIRTHDAY PARTY EXTRAVAGANZA!! So much fun!!!
I LOVE dancing at the rhino!!! I also limited myself to approximately 4 jello shots, so I even stayed at the bar past midnight! Winning at Saturday night!! Of course, no Saturday night on the town comes drama free! There were tears (luckily not from me), sexy ladies falling down, fights almost breaking out, and PIZZA!!! Us girls all ended up together at the end of the night in bed....comparing lady bits...haha TMI?? Girlfriends are the best. <3

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST 3D happened on SUNDAY FUNDAY!!! Sunday funday has actually now turned into me and Damien's Lazy Sunday, which is awesomeeee. I realized while watching Beauty and the Beast that I totally blocked out this super creepy guy that runs the asylum. I didn't remember him at all, and he's uber creepy! The wolf part still scares me...haha LOVE beauty and the beast! I can't wait until TITANIC 3D comes out!! I won't be able to hold the tears in for that one! Usually thinking about baseball subsides the tears, worked like a charm during Beauty and the Beast!!

It is OFFICIALLY 21 days, aka 3 weeks until VEGAS. Holy balls, I am excited. There's 8 of us crazy kids going now!!

157 DAYS UNTIL STAMPEDE!!!! WHERE ARE YOU SUMMER!!!!

Thursday 26 January 2012

Warm Yin/Yang O_o

Tonight Mel, Begin, and myself will be attending a class called Warm Yin/Yang at Yoga Passage. Apparently it's cross between core work and Vinyasa yoga. I wish it had a different name..."So, Steph, what are you doing tonight?" "Oh, you know, just going to my Warm Yin/Yang class!" haha sounds ridiculous!! I'll just call it yoga. On the plus side, reading the description of Warm Yin/Yang sounds pretty exciting:

"Energize and restore! The first half of this class will focus on blending Yang postures with core work and vinyasa to energize and strengthen muscles and joints. The last half will emphasize Yin postures which are held for a longer duration to restore and heal the connective tissues and cells of the body. The Yin (gentle) practice perfectly balances the Yang (active) side of the practice by gently strengthening the body and calming the mind. A beautiful opportunity to restore your energy levels; physical, mental, and emotional!" - Yoga Passage

Yes please!!! Can't wait for my energy levels to be restored, not to mention the physical, mental, and emotional!! I'll let you know how my Warm Yin/Yang class goes!! I have high hopes!!

BRUISES EVERYWHERE!!!!

Last night we went skating again and I am so sore! My hip, knees, elbows, everything is just bruised! I need to learn to keep my balance! The past two days I've been working down south sans computer, which is why I've failed to update you on my life. Nothing too exciting has happened in the past two days though. I went for a tan and didn't cover my face with a towel, so now it looks like I just got back Mexico!! ARIBA!!! Oooh some guy gave me his number when we went skating last night! Chaching!! I don't think I'm going to call him though...I hope my friend Steph isn't reading this...hah I just don't call guys!!! I know I'm weird and whatever, but it's just not my thing.

EEK my friend Steph is getting her hair dyed today by our friend Robyn who works at a salon, and she's going DRASTIC!!!!!!!! Hahaha this is actually going to be the highlight of my day....well we'll see how the day unfolds! She has dark brown hair and wants to drastically lighten it up....BLONDE BABY YAAA!!! My beautiful friend has inspired me to book an appointment with Robyn too. My transition shall be a little less intense...I'm thinking a lighter brown, then gradually going lighter for the summer. SUMMER where are you!!

Monday 23 January 2012

I'm really productive...NBD

HAPPY MONDAY MORNING!!!!

I think I still have a sugar buzzzzz from all the ice cream and cheesecake I devoured last night!!! Mmm binge eating. I had the laziest most amazing day/night yesterday which was completely well deserved since I've been running around like a crazy person lately! Friday night I stayed in like a loser and did laundry, wow, I'm kind of ashamed to admit that, but it was completely necessary!! After five loads of laundry, I took my cute butt to the gym for about an hour, then went for a tan. I drove all the way to Tan de Soleil, which is all the way in crowfoot, which is about a 20 min drive, just to discover it was closed!! NOOOO!!! I refused to go home sans tan, so I drove around for a bit and found the next best thing, Fabutan. Oh good lord, Tan de Soleil and Fabutan are like night and day, or Jail and Heaven. Going to Fabutan after being used to Tan de Soleil is just...not good. I actually have a look of disgust on my face as I type this. Valuable lesson learned this weekend: Tan de Soleil closes at 9pm, and Fabutan is not an acceptable substitute!!

Saturday morning I woke up refreshed after my Friday of GTL, so I went to a yoga class at Yoga Passage, which was amazing. I purchased 3 months unlimited for 150 bucks, and since I have a GC for $130.00, I'm pretty much paying 20 bucks for 3 months of unlimited yoga. If you can't reach me, I'll be at yoga. I'll pretty much be living at Yoga Passage for the next three months. Can't WAIT!!!!! Saturday we FINALLY tried this Commonwealth bar which is all the rage. Commonwealth is pretty cool, and a lot of fun!
Good dance music, two dance floors, lots of bars...not too crowded. I would have had a lot more fun if I didn't have to wait in the coat check line forever...and then wait another forever to get my coat back. I hate line-ups. I'm so freaking impatient. I get really really really grouchy when I'm standing in like and my mood goes from fun, party Steph to grouchy, angry, do not want to be around Steph!!! This chick ahead of me that was talking to Casey kept spilling her drink on me, and I freaked out and ran out of the bar. Luckily Casey got my coat for me, because I would have left it there.
I would rather them keep my coat than have to wait in like for 30 minutes...haha next time I'm clearly just not bringing a coat!!! Other than my little explosion at Commonwealth, it was a success!! It was a ladies night, and our friend Brent came too!

I had the laziest Sunday of life. It was sooooo good. There were chips and salsa involved, ice cream, cheesecake, pasta, and Nutella!!!! Man this is making me hungry!!! Me and Dames watched hours and hours of TV, took a little nap, ate the world. Epic Sunday. Now I need to go to the gym for 3 hours...haha damn you cheesecake!!

Thursday 19 January 2012

Intense DONUT craving!!

I am craving a pink glazed donut with sprinkles soooooo badly!!!! Mmm just imagine biting into a freshly glazed donut...warm and melt in your mouth...heavenly. Why the heck am I craving donuts?? Last night Jeff and Nicole came over to watch Cougartown, which comes back February 14th by the way!! WOOT WOOT!!! Alright back to last night...there were Double Stuffed Oreos involved, and PRINGLES!!! Sweet and salty baby!! There was also wine involved...of course!! I had THE BEST massage of life last night. It was so epic. My back was kind of hurting...and my shoulders..but after that massage I'm pain free in 2003!!! I wish it was 2003 so fun rhymes like that would work...nothing rhymes with 2012...Buy a nice shelve in 2012!! Ok, so some things rhyme with 2012, but not fun things!!! Man that donut picture is making me want to sprint to Tim Hortons...although I don't think Timmy Ho's has pink glazed donuts so it could be a real let down, then I'd have to spend the remainder of the day hunting down said pink glazed donut. I think Dunkin Donuts has them, does Calgary have a Dunkin Donuts? I don't think so. We had a Krispy Kreme for about 2.5 seconds. It was in the NE and did not last long...I'm not sure what's there now, perhaps a Sleep Country?

Tonight I am going skating with my best buds and need to buy some toe warmer pack things...haha I clearly don't know what they're called, all I know is last time I almost lost my big toe to Mr. Frostbite. How awkward would it be if you lost a toe, goodbye sandals, also I feel your balance would be off. You would have to learn to walk all over again pretty much, but I wonder if your core would get stronger cause you'd have to balance. Perhaps if I lost a toe, I would have abs of steel. This is something to consider....or I guess I could just do sit ups! I need to go buy a hockey stick and apparently tape to wrap around the bottom and top? I need to stop spending money!!! Just kidding. I need to make more money, so I can spend MORE!! MUAHAHA!!! I'm a little loopy this morning!! I swear I only had a glass of wine last night, and not 5 bottles like usual!!

Friday night I fully intend to stay home, bundled on the couch with a glass of wine and my fur baby. The chances of this happening are approximately 63%. I really hope it does happen though, because sometimes it's so nice to be alone in your apartment. Mel is babysitting, so she's going to be out, and I shall be alone at home! Me gusta!  9am....on Thursday??? WHY U NO FRIDAY??? This is a long week....

Donuts. That is all.

Wednesday 18 January 2012

Oh the weather outside is weather!

Morning, and happy Wednesday to ya!! MID WEEK!!! This week is just crawling along for me, it could really use some super speed!! I went to this PR information session at MRU last night and it was quite informative! I think I shall be applying as soon as I go get my credit card...which is happening tonight!! Yay me!

Oh my gosh. I'm going for a massage today and 5 and I am sooooo excited!!! I havn't had a massage since I went to Mexico with Mel and Paul!!

In other news: I'm so jealous of Vanessa!! She met a really nice guy last weekend at Craft and from what she tells me he sounds dreamy!! I'm hoping he has some cute friends for me to meet! Hopefully they all come to Commonwealth on Saturday night!! My goal for this weekend: No vomiting, and no crying. I feel like it's possible!! Operation cute boys and vodka <3

Is it the weekend yet??

Jealousy's an ugly color bank farter...

STUCK IN MY HEAD...and I kind of like it :)

This song is stuck in my head and it's so freaking catchy, and I know all the words which makes it even worse!! 


Makes me think of Paul <3

Monday 16 January 2012

QUICKY!

Just a quicky sum up of the epic weekend of drunken life. Since I've been drinking less during the week, my body had a complete freak out when I drank on Friday. Since I'm a lady, I'll spare you the gruesome details, but there was vomit EVERYWHERE. hahaha I woke up Saturday morning hugging a garbage can like it was my long lost lover, and heard some guy say: "Did someone puke in the sink??" Yes sir, yes someone did puke in the sink, and it's the girl who's still in her dress and makeup from the night before, THIS GIRL!! I'm not sure what was to blame on this particular night, maybe it was the jello shots, pounding back vodka diets, the Burt Reynolds shots I took, or the beer I stole from Cory that apparently had peach schnapps in it??  hahaha I'm guessing the combination may have had something to do with it, fuck I'm classy. Luckily Damien was going home and drove my drunk ass home to vomit and cry all over the place.

I have realized I have a new New Years Resolution that needs to be put in place: No more drunk crying at the bar. Friday there were tears a plenty! Hannah came out with us which is rare, so I was just so excited to see her, and since we're both best friends with Paul, every time I saw her I was reminded of him, and honestly I'm even getting teary eyed writing this. Blah blah blah I miss Paul, same shit different day. Moral of the story, I'm not going to cry at the bar anymore. Also, Hannah has this new super cute boyfriend and I was jealous of how cute they are, and I wish I could have cute love.

Saturday was less disastrous than Friday...somewhat. I had yoga at 2:30pm which was a STRUGGLE. You would think after getting home from the bar at midnight and puking your brains out, you'd be somewhat functional the next day at 2:30pm. Apparently not. I had to run to the bathroom atleast 5 times during this 2 hour yoga workshop of death. I honestly am getting nauseous thinking about it. 108 push ups...ok I need to move on...haha Saturday night my dad took me, Mel, and Casey to the Flames game!!! We had sooo much fun!!! It was western night at the dome and Mike Cammalleri's first game back!! We lost 4-1 to LA, but whatever, it was Saturday night at the DOME!!!
After the game, we took our cute butts to the casino where we proceeded to lose money. Case lost 20, Mel 30, and yours truly lost 40...could have been worse! Once we lost at the casino, we went to the Drum and Monkey which was a BLAST!!!!!! They played awesome music all night long!!! I requested Sugar Sugar by the Archies and lost my shit when the DJ finally played it!! Me and Casey stayed up until 4am attempting to watch the Wedding Singer, which is one of my all time favorite movies, I did not attend yoga the next morning.


Side Note: Friday was Trevyn's birthday and he just sent me this message:

So one of my co-workers comes up to me today and says "That girl in the white dress. Steph? she's a   friendly one" That is all.

I must not have been as sad and disastrous as I thought!! Point me!

Friday 13 January 2012

MARATHONS AND JELLOSHOTS!!

I registered for the Calgary Marathon in May!! I have enlisted my good friend Damien as my trainer, and shall be paying him in muffins and cookies! I think my first batch of muffins will be BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP!!! They're my fave and pretty difficult to screw up. I'm glad he agreed to being paid in muffins since my next offer was going to be a little less PG.


MAKING JELLO SHOTS TONIGHT!!! Tonight's party just got upgraded to INSANE PARTY NIGHT since our friend Sherrill sent out the word that she's ready to party!!! Sherrill has a husband and a baby, and I've learned from meeting Sherrill that when you have a family and get a free night out, you take full advantage!! This girl is crazy, I'm not gonna lie, she's like me times a hundred. ANTY UP!!!

Wine and Best Friends!

Last night my friend Nicole came over for wine, chatting, and Jersey Shore! There are quite a few Nicoles in my life at the moment, but me and this Nicole have been friends since elementary school! I LOVE having friends you've known forever, and who know everything about you, I feel they give some pretty good advise! Anyways, a glass of wine led to a bottle, which led to two bottles...haha and I am hung the fuck over. Oopsies! Luckily it's Friday and possibly the best weekend EVER!! I'm going to Craft tonight for Trevyn's birthday EXTRAVAGANZA!! Flames game tomorrow night with my papa, and perhaps meeting up with Casey later for some dancing at the Drum, I also have a yoga workshop this weekend!! Operation socialize and be fit!! I'm really trying to tone the ol' caboose lately. When you're running on the treadmill do you ever wonder what people are thinking about your bum? Lately I've been thinking these thoughts are running through onlookers heads: "Damn, that girl's ass is flat." "Oh god, someone needs to tone." "FLABBY ASS ALERT!!!" haha I'm sure I'm sure making a mountain out of a mole hill, but hopefully this weekend of yoga will firm up my derriere!

Yesterday during work I had the best idea ever!! Use my $50 Banana Republic gift card to buy my best bud Nicole a birthday present! I walk into Banana and see cute shirts EVERYWHERE. This rarely happens for me at Banana, I'm not gonna lie, I usually book it right to the clearance section. After picking out several cute shirts for myself, I finally make it to the back of the store and the only thing I can find that would make a good
gift for Nicole is a scarf. BORING! Plus I gave her a scarf last year, and possibly the year before...haha scarfs just make for a really easy gift, and they're so soft!! After giving up on trying to find Nicole a gift at Banana, I decided to say FUCK IT and by myself a little something! Clearly I fail at buying friends thoughtful gifts, yet I win when it comes to buying myself fabulous new items! I ended up getting Nicole some Hemp lotion and lip gloss at the tanning salon. MMM the tanning salon. I'm definitely going to have to make an appearance there tonight!

HAPPY FRIDAY LOVES!!!!

Thursday 12 January 2012

Indecisive Me.

Alright, so I was really excited to move to Van, but alas I have changed my mind yet again! I was looking up schools in Van and couldn't really find something that peaked my interest, besides journalism, so I started looking for programs at MRU and UofC and have decided to apply for PR in the fall! There's a free information night on PR Jan 17th which I shall be attending! I registered for my upgrading courses yesterday and I'll get As like a boss and then apply and be GOLDEN!! One of my fears is that my parents will want me to move back in with them when I'm in school, which is not going to happen.

My cold is almost gone, but now it's this annoying sore throat. I'm still drowning my body in cold meds until it fully goes away, which better be tomorrow because it's Trevyn's birthday party!!! I'm so excited to see all my friends and party and laugh!! Hopefully I won't go psycho angry/crying Steph like I have been lately! Trial and error my friends!

I got my car back from the shop yesterday and the first place I drove? THE TANNING SALON!!! Omg it felt sooooo good to tan!!! I feel like a brand new woman with a shimmery glow!! Tonight is a gym night for sure!! I need to start toning...why can't running just tone your body? More specifically the derriere! 

ALMOST THE WEEKEND!!!

12 Week Weight Loss Competition - Trip to Jamaica!!

I'm contemplating whether or not to go for this 12 week weight loss competition for a trip to Jamaica. I signed up for it at the Health and Fitness Expo, but now I'm wondering if it's worth the effort.
I've been trying to google how much percentage of body weight the winners of these competitions usually lose in order to win, and it's usually around 20%. If I lost 20% of my body weight I would be 95 pounds. hahaha I don't even think I could/would want to be 95 pounds...but it's a trip to Jamaica!!! Maybe I'll start losing weight and see how it goes...I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!!

Things I'm obsessed with right now!!

We all go through our phases of what we're obsessed with at the moment and here are mine:

- INSTAGRAM!!! I am so hooked on instragram, and secretly want to make it to the popular page! I'm not really sure how one makes it to the popular page, I googled it, but still don't really get it!

- TWATTER...also known as twitter. I know it's been around forever, but I just started using it daily...okay more like 10 times daily, and I love it because I don't have to overload my facebook with meaningless crap, I just put it on twitter!

- REDDIT. I used to go on reddit atleast a few times a day...now my interest is slowly dwindling. Forever alone? Depressing!!

- YOGA. I LOVE YOGA. I have a yoga workshop this weekend and am really excited about it! I used to be totally contra-yoga when my mom and sister were doing it back in the day. I'm a really crazy GO GO GO person when it comes to working out, and was more into soccer and running and high intensity workouts, but yoga's intense in it's own way! I'm glad I gave it another chance and have learned to love it!




VEGAS. ONE MONTH. 9 DAYS. 23 HOURS.

Tuesday 10 January 2012

Compare and Contrast!

You know, when you're sick you learn some valuable things, such as: Tylenol ain't got shit on NyQuil. I found the most amazing DayQuil/NyQuil combo pack ever! DayQuil tablets and NyQuil liquid. When I saw it, I almost cried tears of joy!! I fully plan on going home tonight, chugging a beautiful bottle of NyQuil, and passing out until tomorrow morning. Hopefully I'll wake up well rested and healthy!! I should start testing out brands of medicine while I'm deathly ill! Maybe a little COLDFX (I hear it's magical), throw in some Advil Cold and Flu. I have tried Advil, Tylenol, NyQuil, and have got to say NyQuil is the raining champ in my books!!!

NYQUIL FOR THE WIN!!!!!

If I'm still sick tomorrow, I'll be crying under my desk like a 12 year old.

Monday 9 January 2012

I am a mess right now.

I rarely get sick, but when I do I'm such a baby about it!! I want to be in bed so bad right now!! I'm supposed to have my first yoga session at Yoga Passage tonight but I feel like death!! 4:30 can't come soon enough! Atleast I have a lot of work to do that will occupy my time!

As you may know, Nicole and I went to the Health and Fitness Expo on the weekend, and it was soooo much fun!!! We played some tackle football, did jumping jacks for prizes, and got a lot of swagger!! Subway water bottles, free gym passes, yoga passes, and free smoothie coupons!! We entered pretty much every contest we could! We entered this 12 week challenge, and whoever loses the greatest percentage of weight wins a trip to Jamaica!! I've been googling how much weight lose percentage usually wins competitions like this, and it's usually around 20%...which is a lot!! I did some calculations and if I lost 20% I would be 95 pounds....which does not sound attractive at all! I need to start doing some toning....I feel like when I run on the treadmill I've got a case of the flat butt!! My mother has a case of the flat butt....must tone!!

John Thai's Christmas party was on Sat night which was a lot of fun! We looked like a couple of classy mofos!! I'm excited to see more pics! Do you ever get jealous of someone that someone you kind of like likes even if you don't really like that person?? haha that sounds kind of confusing..here's the situation: There's this guy that I don't like romantically, but he brought this blonde chick to the xmas party and I was weirdly jealous of her, and I'm not sure why. Perhaps the 7 glasses of champagne and multiple vodka diets had something to do with me going a little bit crazy! After the xmas party we went to the Ship to meet up with Begin and Nicole, then me and JT went to meet Kyley who was DJing at the Yardhouse. At around 2:00am I was getting a little grouchy and wanted to go home. Kyley drove me home, but had to make a pit stop which took forever!! I got more and more grouchy, and didn't feel like holding back since I've known Kyley forever and he already knows crazy angry Stephanie. I feel bad for being an asshole, but luckily it was around my best friends and not strangers who will now judge me forever for being the crazy angry chick!

Oh and I fell off the sober wagon, but I figure Saturday is a great night to fall off the wagon! Especially when there's free champagne :)

Friday 6 January 2012

When life's not fair at all, use Clavaritol!

I've been looking into schools in Van, and trying to decide what I want to do when I'm there. Right now I'm thinking about PR or Journalism. I was thinking of taking something medical like sonography but I'm not really feeling the medical world right now. It's so hard to decide what to do! I thought I would just move up in some stupid company in Calgs, meet some rich guy, fall madly in love, travel the world together, pop out some kids, and live happily ever after :) That sounds nice :) Although life is good right now too and it's freaking FRIDAY!!! I'm so excited to DANCE!!!! We're trying out this new club tonight, Commonwealth, and I bought a new dress for the occasion!!

I'm really excited for this weekend! Tonight is dancing, going to Lake Louise tomorrow, then John Thai's work xmas partayyy, and then Sunday is the Health and Fitness expo!! How exciting!!!

Last night I invited some gal pals over to watch Jersey Shore only to discover our cable had been shut off. Why was our cable shut off you may ask? These two goons forgot to pay the TELUS bill....oopsies!! We pleaded with TELUS to turn the cable on because it was Jersey Shore night, but they wouldn't budge. I guess that's what happens when you don't pay your cable bill for five months! We played Clue and watched Harry Potter instead, I'm pretty sure we're 12 again!! Stay tuned for next Thursday where we play Barbies and bake tiny cakes in the easy bake oven :)

Thursday 5 January 2012

Health and Fitness EXPO!!

I'm really oddly excited for this health and fitness show at the Telus convention center this weekend!!


Last year I signed up to run the Calgary Marathon, but realized it wasn't going to happen when this old man started chatted me up and asked me about my "training". I said: "Uh....what training? I run everyday? Isn't that good enough?" haha the expression on his face after I said that was priceless, and apparently to run 42k you do need to "train". According to this marathon man, once or twice a week I needed to be running 21k also called a "long run" also fuck running 21k, it's hard and EXHAUSTING and makes my legs want to fall off! I just want to run a marathon so I can say I did it...I don't want to run half marathons once - twice weekly as "training" aka TORTURE!! That being said, I'm going to register for the Vancouver Marathon in May. Why not right? I'm a good runner, and worse case scenario my legs go numb and I cry like a little girl, and seeing as I am a little girl, that's just to be expected!

Oooh I went to the Talisman center last night and I forgot how much fun that place is!! I was a little heartbroken when we couldn't play badminton because all the courts were filled with basketball players, but there's always next time!!! Also.....

IT'S JERSDAY!!!!! BEAT THAT BEAT UP!!! 

Wednesday 4 January 2012

Drinking = Wrinkles

I'm not drinking for awhile. I know, it's sad...I'm sad too. I've been reading articles today about how drinking causes pre-mature wrinkles and color spots and bleh!! I don't want to age!! I think my fear of aging is because I'm turning 26 in a month and 16 days, and since it's around new years I'm still all "new years resolution-y". That being said, I've decided not to drink until February 21st aka my birthday aka the day we fly to VEGAS. 6 weeks baby!! Now what I really need to do is find fun activities to occupy my sober time!! Hiking, reading, tanning (okay this is kind of counterproductive to the prevention of wrinkles, but i put a towel on my face!), WORKING OUT!! Me and Nicole are going to this health and fitness expo at the Telus convention center on Sunday! Also, fuck Telus. I had no 3G yesterday and was getting my text messages hours after they were sent. How rude!

New Years Resolutions or Something Like That!

Why hello Wednesday, nice seeing you so early in the week! Since it's January 4th I've nailed down my new years resolutions. For starters: I don't do new years resolutions, but I've realized lately that I'm not really ambitious and should probably start setting some goals for myself. This is what I've come up with:

- Start Reading (I really don't read books, so I should probably get on that!!)
- Bringing lunch to work! (That's gotta save me some cashola I'm thinking)
- Start cooking! (I knew I had to start sometime...why not now?)
- Save money to move! (I have four months before I plan on moving out west, I need to start saving)

Here's the book I'm reading...for some reason this book and Suzanne Somers' Secrets to Staying Young After Forty jumped out at me! Don't ask me why....I'm an odd female. 

I'm also REALLY looking forward to VEGAS. The countdown is on! One month, 16 days, and 23 hours....yea there's an app for that :)

Tuesday 3 January 2012

Back to Work.....if you can call what I do working...

HAPPY SHORT WEEK!!! Well this seems about right...It's the first day back from Christmas vacation and I forgot to shower, forgot my earphones, couldn't find my Puma bag to bring my workout gear to work, can't find my winter jacket, look like ass. Sounds about right! Okay I've decided my New Years Resolution is to find a boyfriend...mostly cause I can't think of another resolution. Hmm maybe I should go on some better dating sites than plenty of fish....Match.com here I come!!! Matchmaker matchmaker find me a match!! I hope my boss doesn't come in this morning...that would be super. His kids are all in town so hopefully he'll stay home with them instead of come into work...I'm crossing my fingers!! I have a 50$ gift certificate to spend at Banana Republic today!! I'm excited to go shopping!!

Lately I've been getting really emotional when I drink, and it's really not good. On Friday we went to the CASHINO and I couldn't stop crying!! SO EMBARRASSING!!! I would be sitting at the electronic roulette table and just start tearing up....WTF girl, get your shit together!! Anyways, the night ended with me storming out of the casino in tears, and me and Vanessa went to Hudsons. Saturday night was NYE which was fun. For some reason me and NYE are just not compatible. I try staying in and having fun, going out and having fun...but I just barely make it till midnight, cry, go to bed. This NYE I cried, ate special brownies, and then passed the fuck out. I'm so classy. Anyways, going on Match.com now, yep...this is happening.

FYI: Match.com is 20 bucks a month. Not happening.
