boy or girl??

3.16.2012

Yesterday was our 20 week ultrasound. Baby is great and kicking up a storm. I'm also healthy and doing well. I've gained 12lbs so far and still working out 3 times a week. No maternity clothes just yet :)
I know you guys are probably thinking "blah blah blah...what's the sex?". So for the big reveal...


IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!

1.12.2012

The main reason for my absence...exhaustion. Why am I so tired you might ask? Well, allow me to let Liam tell you.


lol...he's super happy about the news as you can see!
I'm 3 months along now and baby is due end of July. Hope all you loyal readers will support me through this pregnancy as you have done for the first :)

little memento

1.04.2012

My sister and her new husband, they got married this past September, hosted Christmas Eve dinner at their new home for the first time as husband and wife. I wanted to give them something to celebrate and what better gift than a beautiful Christmas tree ornament that they will cherish every year. I came across this blogpost and couldn't have found a more perfect idea. Their wedding invitation cut into quarter inch strips and then rolled on a pencil. Stuffed into an empty Christmas glass ornament and voila, a keepsake that they will have for many more Christmas's to come.

They loved it and it looked fabulous on their Christmas tree.

in the spirit

10.30.2011

Seeing as it's supposed to be the most frightening time of the year, I decided to share my top scariest movies of all time (in no particular order, however Silence of the Lambs is my favourite movie ever).
Share with me your picks of movies that have you sitting at the edge of your seat or under your covers. I'm always up for a night of nail biting.


Top row, left to right:
The Amityville Horror (remake) - Memorable Quote: Mrs. Lutz, get you and your children out of that house. Right now!
The Exorcist - Memorable Quote: The Power of Christ compels you!
Silence of the Lambs - Memorable Quote: Good evening, Clarice.

Middle row, left to right:
Cujo - Memorable Quote: Fuck you, dog.
Halloween - Memorable Quote: He came home!
The Shining - Memorable Quote: Redrum. Redrum. Redrum.

Bottom row, left to right:
The Ring - Memorable Quote: Seven days...
Se7en - Memorable Quote: David. If you kill him, he will win.
The Blair Witch Project - Memorable Quote: I'm afraid to close my eyes, I'm afraid to open them.

ballet

10.24.2011

Just to follow-up, my ballet classes are going great. I think I've improved tremendously since the first day I started this past summer. Things I need to work on...grand jete's & deboule's...I suck at them and it's frustrating! Any ballerina's out there have any pointers for me?
Here's a pic from tonight's class. When I first started this summer, I could barely straighten my leg to the front. Hopefully by the end of this session i'll be able to lift it straight up.

feeling guilty

9.21.2011

I just made a boo-boo. I was craving a Big Mac and without hesitation, I ate one :(  Not only was I feeling guilty the entire time during and after consumption, I then come across this picture on the net...


Well doesn't this just make me feel fantastic. Extra jump squats and lunges for me tomorrow.

half sleeve tat

8.30.2011

I'm intrigued by gorgeous women with half sleeve tattoos. I would love to get one but not sure it would suit me. And if there's any pictures that would talk me out of it, it surely ain't these ones. Carolin Loosen is absolutely gorgeous.

cheat sheet

I don't know about you but after almost 2 years of having my DSLR, I am still shooting in auto mode. I KNOW, I KNOW....KILL ME NOW!!!
I've never taken photography courses and wouldn't even know where to begin on taking good pictures in all situations. So after doing some research, I found this cheat sheet that I will print, laminate, and keep in my camera bag :)

done for the summer

8.24.2011

So yesterday marked the end of my ballet summer session. I learned so much and I gotta admit that despite doing classes only once a week for 90 minutes, my legs feel and look leaner. I enjoyed myself so much that I enrolled myself in the fall/winter session which begins Sept. 12th :) Not only that, my teacher said that I was ready for pointe therefore I will also be taking private pointe lessons aside from my regular classical ballet classes.
You are never too old to follow your dreams!!!

I leave you with a beautiful video from Sting which features Alessandra Ferri. A ballerina with a set of the best feet I've ever seen.

I am extremely proud of what I've accomplished in my life so far. Nice friends, great career, lovely healthy family, and a beautiful home. Not every day has been good, but there has been something good in every day. I am looking forward to another 34 years just like these past ones :)

darken up

7.24.2011

I finally went to get my hair done this weekend. Cut is fairly similar, just got a trim and added and extra layer. Colour: darker. I was getting really tired of my outdated highlights.
Which do you prefer...the before or the after and why? You can be honest, I'm a tough cookie :)

for sale

7.19.2011


Word of the day "hoarder". 
Definition: The excessive acquisition of possessions and failure to use or discard them. 

That is what Andrew called me today after one of the beams holding shelving in my closet collapsed. Reason being because I have too much stuff and the weight was just unbearable. Therefore according to Andrew, I am a hoarder. 
So, my dismay is your joy... I am selling plenty of my goodies to be able to reassemble my closet in order to make room for a lighter more useful wardrobe.

Check out my new items for sale in my shop here. (More to come as I've only begun with my bags and accessories.)

kum bah ya

6.24.2011

I'm not sure why, maybe it's the cool summer night and the starry sky, but I'm suddenly in the mood to go camping. Roasting marshmallows, making s'mores, sitting by the campfire telling ghost stories, cozying up with your honey in 1 sleeping bag listening to the crackling fire. ahhhh, so tranquil. Gotta plan one with my friends for the summer.
