we've seen it all, bonfires of trust, flash floods of pain









My long weekend.
Cousins get-together dinner and dessert complete with wine, cake, beer, cookies, and pingpong.
And a day in the oh-so-far (not really) Missisauga to finally try this infamous burger joint.
"Where burgers are boss".
They were pretty boss, can't lie.

But long weekends are pretty boss in general.

through the storm we reach the shore, you give it all but i want more




Classic.
A real gem, this one is.

Sorry for my lack of blogfestations. This week has seemed super busy and super exhausting.
But as-per-usual, TGIF.
*big smile*

i will never love you more than... peanut butter





Kate Spade vids.
Lovely. And for multiple reasons.

Its Thursday, but its kinda like my Friday.
Long weekend, I am so super ready for you.

Coachella.
Why wasn't I there?

Oh, to live in Cali.
PS. Kate Bosworth. Shes so pretty! And I want her closet.

just give me moments, not hours or days




This weekend, I cut my hair. Finally.
And I rarely say this (because I'm usually so super un-fussy about my cuts) but wow.. I am having some issues with this new do.
Its mostly beacuse I have bangs. Feeling pretty uneasy about it. I look like a little toddler two year old.
(It is 56.5% possible that I am a bit dramatic with this statement).

Other than that, this weekend was pretty fun.
Except that my beloved Chicago Blackhawks lost their first three playoff games. (Insert extremely heartbroken face here).
Oh yeah, and my two year old toddler bangs.

So I guess apart from those two small menial (ahem, maybe not so small menial) details, my weekend was good!
Happy Beeday to my buddies Jakey & Hansoleeee.

PS. You know what makes this as-per-usual-sucky-Monday not-so-sucky?
Knowing that I have a four-day weekend coming up. Yes friends, four-day work week. And a four-day weekend.
(Because of Jesus. He is stellar like that).
Lets high-five that one out.

John Legend's cover of Adele's Rolling in The Deep.
Whatta voice. I meant that for the both of them, FYI.

PS. Its Friday, lets plaaaaay whoooo.

when you get what you want but not what you need







Max Wanger. Photographer.
Wicked, wicked, wicked. Photographer.

I love all his photos.

Has a blog, plus a brand-spanking new tumblr (which he happens to update on a daily basis).
Yipeeeeee.

The weekend.
Mondays suck.

Oh yes, friends FOREVER.

this is one doodle that can't be undid, home skillet




This song makes me want to dance.

Happy Saturday! Its a good one.
Today's weather is so awesome, we had take-out sushi outside for lunch.

And I've also been baking for the past two hours.
Whilst watching Juno. Good movie.

Happy Saturday, indeedie!

you had my heart inside of your hands, and you played it to the beat.



I like ampersands.
(For reasons unknown).
Which is why I like this bag.
However. I don't like the price. I really don't like that price. Why is it that price?

... But, but, but! It contains a laptop compartment!
No, I know. I still reeeally don't like the price. Its ludicrous! (Either I'm cheap or thats ludicrous).

So I ended up purchasing this one. A darker colour (which I very much approve of) and similar.
Not as cool and functional as the other one. But still amiable. And on sale.

Point of my somewhat-pointless story: ampersands are cool.

PS. Happy Friday. I'm sick (again) and unhappy about it.

he's some guy she met at the gym with brad pitt's face and jesus' abs




1. I've become re-obsessed with 500 Days of Summer. I know. Some hate it, some love it. I happen to still love it.
There are so many great parts to it. Like.. as per my blog post title.
(The very last-part ending kinda is .. enh, I know. But the rest makes up for it).
PS. I realized that when I like a movie, I end up watching it every (single) day for a short period of time (like a week).

2. I think I've mentioned on here that I'm really into:
a) granny styles clothing and b) vintage prints or oh-me-oh-my... c) the two mixed together.
So. Its been really fun perusing through this website: eztextiles. All morning slash early afternoon.
Its a huge online library of digital textile designs.

A day (or morning slash early afternoon) well spent. Mmhmm.

might as well fall in




James Blake.
A young british lad. Who has pretty much colonized my current ipod playlist.
Think... soul... and experimental... and R&B and... electro. All mixed together.
Very smooth and sexy.
Think Bon Iver (smiles), but with beats. Mmmhm.

Or. Like they say, think of him "as the reason many British people are making out tonight".

Probably a true story.

so call me captain backfire




Why is Toronto's weather so bipolar? Literally 10 degrees by day, snowing by night. Weird.
And why is the weekend over already? Where did it go?
And lastly, why am I always tired? Perpetually.

Why.

Sigh.

PS. Thats the new Starbucks Red Velvet Whoopie Pie.
Its not that its so fantastically, you-have-to-try-it yummy, but I thought it was aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

And I'll say it one more time for the road: sigh.
