Beach Day

It's a bit hard to see, but there is a man standing on a surfboard like thing and rowing his way across. Amazing.

Sometime a couple of weeks ago, we ventured to the beach. There was some confusion regarding whether we were going to "the beach" or "the Beaches", which was unintentional. Sorry ahha. It was one of the first really nice days in Toronto and so many people were out. I truly love Toronto in the summer. Really wish we had a lake in the city we could actually swim in though. But can't have it all, now can we?

Cottage Weekend

Birthday

I'm really not much of a birthday person at all. In regards to my birthday at least. Other people's I get excited for; mine not so much. I guess it also has to do with the whole inevitable life evaluating thoughts that plague my mind around this time. After much distress about what to do, and a general wanting to do absolutely nothing, I showed up at Stephen's house. I walked into a Mexican themed fiesta surprise party which lifted my mood and was impressively themed down to the tequila napkins. My friends and Stephen planned an amazing party and we all had a blast. It turned out be a great birthday after all :)

May Two-Four

Gotta catch up on posting stuff. And be more motivated to do if more often. It seems like that's the case with most things unfortunately.

Anywho, May 24 weekend began with Stephen coming over to my house and me making dinner. I made a mushroom asparagus risotto with a balsamic reduced chicken with spinach, which turned out quite well. It was a nice evening. The next morning I made a super yummy marscapone stuffed french toast with a blueberry jam that started off our morning right.

On Saturday we went to see a rendition of The Little Prince. It's one of my favourite books. For not any particular reason really. The play turned out to be a children's play ... literally, the first four rows were comprised only of three to six year olds. It was quite amusing. After Stephen and I seperated for the evening, I met up with Kim to go shopping for her Euro trip. We went to Wall-mart and got most of her basics. On Sunday, Kim and I came over to Stephen's house in the morning and I made the yummy french toast again. Then we headed to the beaches since it was such a nice day. We attempted to rollerblade, which was a lot of fun. Definetely got the hang of it again. Then we had a nice little picnic on the rocks by the lake complete with numerous cheeses, grapes, and rose. Perfect way to spend a sunny day outside :)

After coming back to Stephen's, we chilled before figuring out where to head out for the night. Originally we were supposed to go out on College, and then on Queen. Once we got to the area though, we wandered around for a bit and ended up at this club called Atelier. Even though we had to pay cover after being told we didn't, which was annoying, I had a blast. The place played a really good mix of music, and even though it was just the three of us, I had one of the best nights out in a while. :)

We had Monday off since it was a long weekend. Ended up going to the Distillery to walk around. They had a craft fair, which I think happens every weekend in the summer if I'm not mistaken. It was interesting to see all of the different things for sale. I bought a silver ring that I quite like. Nastasha texted me on our way there and I invited her to join us. We ended up going for dinner and having quite a few drinks on a patio. It was great to catch up and talk. Unknowingly, I became quite drunk. It was a great end to an even greater weekend.

Birthday & Clothing Show

Haven't written in a while. Need to get back on track. The last couple of weeks have been somewhat of a rollercoaster in terms of Stephen and I. I feel like now things are somewhat back to being great again. Hopefully it will remain and grow into something even greater :)

Last weekend was Bianca's birthday. On Friday, we ended up getting a room at the Hilton Garden Inn and going to Century Room afterwards. I met up with Kim and Tony for dinner at the Rivoli after their helicopter ride (Tony's birthday present to Kim). I tried their mac 'n cheese which I did not find tasty at all.

I love my ice.

Bleh.

I didn't really have that great of a time in the club. But the whole night was pretty entertaining overall. I think I went to sleep at 5:30 am and woke up at 7 and went to Cora's for breakfast with Kim. After I got home in the afternoon I ended up falling asleep and the rest of the day was mostly a write-off.

The aftermath.

Someone's not feeling that great.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Sleep deprived.

On Sunday, Kim and I ventured to the Clothing Show. It was a gorgeous day out, and I figured it would be interesting to check out the stuff they had. I didn't end up getting anything except for four boxes of very interesting cookies (at a clothing show, go figure :P). Ended up running into Stephen's sisters (one of whom I have not met yet, as she lives in Australia and just recently came into town to visit), which was amusing. Later on we ventured to a shisha bar called Desert Nights, where Tony and Aliona came to meet us. It was a nice place to just chill out and talk. Can't say I really liked the shisha there though. Overall, I liked how it was an eventfull weekend.

Louboutins :)
