hi paddington bear.

I was never really into the 'duffel coat' (aka the 'Paddington Bear coat').
I think that has to do with the fact that I didn't like the one that Aritzia (my former place of work & home!) had.

But.
I want this one. I enjoy.
Too bad you can't buy it here. And too bad its for boys, not girls. Too bad, bad, bad. 
Damn you, boys.

and so live ever --- or else swoon in death

I love, love, love period films.
Watching Pride & Prejudice always makes me want to find a real life Mr. Darcy.
To be honest, I just love how everything that is said sounds like its straight out of a poem.
Can't lie, kinda takes me a few seconds to really understand what they are saying sometimes (hehe).

A couple of weeks ago, I watched Bright Star and holy batman - stunning.
The cinematography was incredibly pretty.
Watch it. If you like romance and pretty photography, that is.

Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art--
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite,
The moving waters at their priestlike task
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors--
No--yet still stedfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,
And so live ever--or else swoon to death.
- John Keats, 1819

hello out there, we're on the air ...

Earlier this week, I experienced my first live NHL game (Blackhawks vs Senators).
What an epic experience. Seriously.
Seats were phenemonal. View was phenomenal.. Lets just leave it at phenemonal, period.
I took a gigantor amount of photographs. Even if it was basically all of one player (guess who!).
Don't judge me. Fanatic fan mode was on serious, full affect.
And the best part is, I wasn't even supposed to go! Heeeey.
To my dear friend who goes by the name of Showtime, I feel bad that you were unable to.
(But secretly, I am not, because I am now a changed person. Sort of. Kind of. Yes.)



In conclusion, this is what I learned:
The television does not do any justice. At all. Like, AT all. Everything is so much better in person. Especially when you see the big players exert their intense aggression right in front of you. Like, erm, when they body check. Or even better, are about to fight. Come on, that really is a great part of hockey.
Right? Really quite excellent.



And that is all.

the dresses, oh the dresses

The 64th Golden Globes.
I did NOT watch. However, wanted to present the best of the best.
All imo, of course.

The xx.
I am in exxtreme likes with them!
