Worked on some of your requests for additions to the Unnecessary Wheels Collection this week. I love making things. It’s a lovely break from the internet to draw and a whole different joy sharing online after. Still thinking about that art show.
We have a crabby apple:
A purple mushroom with handlebars (in progress):
A djembe drum:
Making some shirts for Blonde Jovi aka the Bloundetourage aka Blondovision aka my friends that are blonde who blog. Shirts, stencils, spray paint, acrylic paint. One day I’ll have a factory like Andy Warhol, it will be my factory and I will make more more things than ever before.
At my factory, a river runs through it, it’s a creative stream.
Ok bye…………..ART ATTACK TIME!!!!!!!!
Mark your calendars cause on Thursday, August 26th it’s genYTO at The London Taphouse. They have graciously set aside a HUGE area for us on the roof patio starting at 8pm till late. Snapped this pic on that same roof last summer, sun setting is pure beauty.
If you have never been to a genYTO night before, be prepared for awesomeness. It’s a group that was founded in January 2009 by Erin Bury, Dave Coleman, Renee Warren, Daniel Patricio and myself to combat the negative portrayals of generation Y in the media. Articles were floating around saying we’re self-absorbed, confused, spoiled, lazy, and entitled. Truth is – we are inspired and motivated to drive change in our world. Erin said it well on her blog:
“We think we’re actually some of the most driven, hard-working and inspired people out there, so we decided to host a monthly event in Toronto to bring the GenY community out, share ideas, and of course share a couple beverages. The events now get over 100 people out each month and have inspired folks in Ottawa to found the GenYOTT events. “
This time we will have some special announcements. Exciting stuff is happening behind the scenes with the GenYTO crew and we are looking forward to sharing that awesome with you. Get your tickets here. They’re free 🙂
Feel free to check out the stuff we’ve done over the last couple years on Google or on my blog. If you would like to donate anything to enhance the experience, let me know. I’d be happy to get you involved.
My Sims Nintendo DS BFF Joey totally has the right idea.
Have a great day!

I want that pencil. So bad. I have never wanted a pencil so. It’s like Brad Pitt and some other really hot babe got together and made a pencil. A really sexy pencil. I want it in my hands. Both hands. I will use two at once and write all over the place. Erase. Permanent love make.
On the first episode of the Social Media Show on Perpetual Radio, Karim Kanji interviewed Saul Colt, the Mayor of Twitter and myself. I had the video of the show here but the audio was not great quality. It may have been my internet, will be better next episode. You can listen to it here or download the Perpetual Radio podcast from itunes.

We’ll be back on as guests on September 5th to chat about more awesome stuff with a couple new guests. Stay tuned!
This cute pic was drawn by my friend Randeep Katari. I love his sketches! Please keep blogging. 🙂
“Funny..because in the word “Jealousy”, there’s lousy. I think the reason why some people get jealous is because they’re not content or they want to experience what you experienced. Jealousy is when you get jealous because s/he went to this awesome place, it’s when s/he has a freakin amazing cool better version gadget, it’s when you wish you have what they have, it’s when you cry over your mommy or daddy because your friend has an ice cream and you don’t, it’s when the guy/girl in your dreams love someone else, it’s when blah blah blah. I think you get it. It’s sounds so silly, isn’t it? But you know it’s all true. I think being jealous is normal but sometimes jealousy can turn into madness that turns into an obsession that turns into “I’m fucked.” via walrusowl on tumblr
Recently I saw someone acting out of what can only be explained as jealousy. I’d heard a few things she’s said then she threw a couple jabs here and there and I was “wtf is up, I thought we were friends”. The most disappointing was the way she started acting, then after seemed to be nicey-nice again. I don’t get it and I refuse to waste my time trying to understand. You live and learn I guess.
We’ve all seen Mean Girls and we all remember highschool when girls act mean just because you’re doing well. What I don’t get, is how people don’t relize that negative thoughts and feelings become things and in the end you are only hurting yourself making yourself look stupid. I really wanna send those people a GET WELL SOON card.
I LOVE seeing people around me do well. I tell my friends to call me when something exciting happens, I say “you can always brag to me“. I’m inspired by the people around me, that’s part of the reasons we’re friends in the first place. Duh! You can email me something awesome anytime, I’ll respond. Sometimes it’s hard to share with friends cause you know they wont be as happy for you as your Mum would. I will.
I had so much fun working/partying with the girls this weekend. It was refreshing to be around four babes that blog and tweet like you do, we all ‘get it’. It was never rude to be tweeting or texting while talking and there was the sound of a camera every few mins. I loved it.
I’m stoked for our next blondevoyage. Until then, rock on and have an awesome day.
Riding in the back of the production vehicle with the girls heading back stage. Today we watch wakeboarding and hang. Poutine for breakfast. Rained, its muddy, we’ve got wellies and I’m dressed like superman. Virgin mobile tent backstage. My cape is blowing in the wind and the band just started.
Ok, he’s not my boyfriend but I have a crush on him. He’s Aussie with a hot bod, tattoo,s creativity and a spirit that touches my heart. This is his Life In A Day Submission, I watched it a few times.
The video, poem and backing track were created on his 180th day in isolation at a Sydney hospital. He wrote, recorded and edited the video in his hospital room on his macbook. Talk about a nersgasm. I swoon.
I am so excited. However, I am sure that does not surprise you. Haven’t had a weekend away with a bunch of girls in years. We’re staying at the Mountain Springs Resort (with the bands I believe), have a driver, back stage passes, media all access, Zeugari swimwear, and more good stuff we don’t even know about yet. Holyshitballs. This could be trouble.
We’ll all be blogging (obviously) and we’ll have heaps of pix and all that good stuff. If there is anything you wanna see, or see us do or us to meet/interview. Lemme know cause I’ve never been to Wakestock before.
Have an awesome day. The weather is BEAUTY!!
We are going to Wakestock and we is excited. Drive up, checkin to our new home, and get the party goin’. These are only a jems from Zeugari swimwear we have to rock this weekend. Raymi posted a bunch of pix today, Lauren tweeted and Carly has them all. If yolre looking for designer swimwear check out Bathing Belle! Oh god I need to pack. Probs gonna pass on #loserkaraoke tonight. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!
Yesterday evening I cruised over to Union Station for the free metric show hosted by Samsung. Show was to announce the launch of the new mobile device which seems pretty cool, android, big screen 5pm camera, touch keypad. O’Nizzle and I scored some last min VIP tickets and were front row for the whole show. Thanks Samsung!
DANCED UP A STORM!
I high fived Emily.. Oh yeah. I’m famous. Heh heh. We made an article on CTV.ca (how ironic?) and were quoted: “She approached three girls who were leaping and screaming beside me and shared a moment of “crazy eyes” with them that gave them perma-grins for the rest of the night.” Yeah that’s us and those were eyes of love.
I’ve seen Metric a bunch of times but this was by far the closest I’ve ever been. We were in the media area and after seeing a bunch of MuchMusic & MTV people I was asked “who are you here for?”, I proudly said “I’m here for myself, as Casie Stewart”. Do you know how good feels? Damn good.
Blonde blog bots as O’Nizzle called us – Kate Killet, Me & O’Nizzle. SO FUN GUYS!!
Thanks to Virgin Radio for putting this on too. Make sure you vote for me to be the Virgin America Toronto Provocateur!! Contest ends of this month.
Have an awesome day!
I tried to pull myself away from the computer, thinking I need a damn break. I was feeling all meh. I played Sims Miami party on Nintendo DS in bed, attempted to sketch book, played with phone, paced around, tried not to snack. I found myself back at the computer again and again and that’s where I started putting out good vibes.
Do you know what happened next? THEY CAME BACK. A whole slew of good stuff happened today and it flipped my shit mood right on it’s damn stupid head. THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS PEOPLE. Like attracts like. I am so happy right now everytime I get nervous that ‘maybe I can’t do it’ or ‘how the heck is this gonna work’ I remind myself that I can and I will. I finally have the freedom to work on exactly what projects I want, with whom and when. I have dreamed of this and I will not let you down, I will not let me ME down.
I close my eyes, cover them with my hands and repeat “this is my life, this is my life“.
I got VIP tickets to Metric tonight outta the blue from my gonna-meet-tonight-first-time-new-friend from my home town. Oh internet, I love you so. I love this song too. Playin’ on repeat.
Setting up a blog/twitter for Mum today so she can update while on her sailing adventure. Gonna spend more time with my sketchbook I reckon. We hung out last night and, we really miss each other. The Unnecessary Wheels Collection is growing. If you have no idea what the heck I am talking about you should browse over Borderline Artistic, my art blog or check out some of the first ones I drew in this old post. Two of my fav’s are the bong with wheels and the blackberry with wheels. I want to have an art show within the next year. I’ve got so many things I created hiding away, they want to come out, they want to see your eyes and give you feelings.
Postsecret, all about feelings. I hear you lady, I want my own adventure TOO!
Made some new friends last night at drum circle & Squirley’s. HI THERE! Interesting enough, I met one babe who looks exactly like Brett from Flight of the Conchords or exactly like an old BF or two, or three. Whoops. I always seem to find them/they find me, maybe I do have a type afterall. 🙂
Hitting up the free Metric show tonight with O’Nizzle, 7pm Union Station. After that we’ve got fittings with Raymi & Carly of our ZEUGARI swimsuits for Wakestock. We’re staying at a loft in Blue Mountain, it is going to be epic fun. Get ready for lots of bikini’s & babes all weekend.
I tried this one on the other day….ooh hubba hubba. Excited x 1,000,000. If you’re gonna be there lemme know ok.
Have an awesome day xo
Lisa found this one today. Weird eh. Especially considering I’m not into working out! I wonder what other interesting search terms will return my photo? If you find an interesting one, let me know.
This is what happened yesterday, kinda:
Oh man so beauty out there today. Woke up earls and jumped on my new cruiser for a ride in the sunshine by the lake. Riding is so much more free than walking. Faster, wind in your hair. I rode alonside the lake lazily dreaming about traveling, writing and where the path will take me, the road less travelled that is.
Love and miss you Mum. Enjoy sailing today. I think of her everytime I see the boats chilling.
All this week’s plans are in a schedule so I make sure I maximize my time. Today I’ve got a dinner for Marc (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!), inerview for a Uni newspaper and family friend coming to visit this AM. Her name is Pat and she was like a second Mum to me growing up. I thank her for my love of designer clothes and outgoing style. She was always dressed so elegant and stylish. I would love to raid her closet and see what jem’s she’s still got kicking around. I’m gonna ask her today for sure hehe.
Put my old basked on my new bike last night. Got my hands all dirty playing with tools. Reminded me of working in the garage with Dad as a kid. I loved that.
Pretty stoked about Wakestock this weekend. We’re still looking for accomodation, if you can help PLEASE TELL ME NOW! We’re open to hotel, cottage, RV, B&B anything that isn’t camping really. We need to get al dolled up pretty so no bathroom = no fun.
Ok, man I gotta run. Pat’s gonna be here soon with Nicole and I’ve not showered or cleaned up the place. Oh, INTERNET, You are so distracting! I just can’t seem to quit you my love.
Have an awesome day peeps 🙂
Night time creepout at Ireland Park.
Not as scary in the day…
The white marks in the rock that came all the way from Ireland are oyster shells. Pretty & neat, saw the heart, thought of Mum sailing the seas. In the night the statue had loonies and quarters but the next day, the money was all gone. I would have never taken it. Bad karma.
Here’s the story: Ireland Park honours the Irish immigrants who fled during the amine of 1847. 38,000 of them arrived here that summer, at that time our city had about 20,000 living here. Wow, my blog is so educational!
Saw this pretty thing too and thought it was a lucky day. Little did I know JUST how lucky it would be…
Hung out with Keri and caught up on recent happenings. Love her. Shoutout to Team Boston from us both!!
Caught up with Raymi later and she is letting me use her old bike! Yahoooooooooo. Check out this PYT I’ll be riding ’round town.
Thanks RAYMI!! ILU.
I’m so freaking happy to be riding again. I felt so FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE cruising home. Ahhh, the wind in my hair, the open road. I’m home again. Remember how much I rode my old bike last summer? Stoked to take her out for a ride tomorrow AM. I think we look really good together, you could say I’m now in a relationship ♥.
Internetting. I just wanna shut it all off sometimes. Hide away, wrap my wings over me and disappear. It’s not easy sharing yourself all the time. Sometimes you don’t get much back and you feel like your energy vessel is depleated. You get invited to all kinda of cool parties and people recognize you and ask to internview you and stuff but what they don’t know is you really spend heaps of time alone.
So sometimes I take myself on walks and we lay in the grass together and stare at the sky imaging things were different or how things cold be worse, be better. I talk things out with myself in my head and set goals and think of things I can do to make the most of each and every single day. If I don’t take time to hang out alone I get cranky. I need self time. My mind needs time to shut down and relax. It’s these little moments where my batteries get recharged and before I know it I’m back at my computer with 28 windows open sharing all over the place and reaching for my phone to Tweet.
We all have those days I guess. Don’t we?
I played in the sprinklers at the park and IT WAS AWESOME. I will never be too old (too boring) to play in leaves, snow, sprinklers or dance in the rain. I LIVE for those moments.
Like seriously, does this not look like fun?
Ok, how about this?
I didn’t plan to get soaked in the hot hot sun but it felt awesome. Totally gonna hit that spot up as much as I can this month.
Hung out with some babes too, Sabrina & Sadie. Hot bitches. Love when Sabrina plays ‘dog sitter’. We get to have a dog and then give it back hassle free. It’s the best. Kinda like babysitting a child, although, I’m so glad Sabrina does the babysitting. I’m not really into kids that much right now TBH.
I love this dog. She’s the cutest pup ever. Well behaved, doesn’t bark, plays nice. I’m not huge on animals, I don’t like when they shed, touch your stuff, slobber and need attention all the time. Of them all, Boxers are deff my favourite.
I guess the better thing to say is I’m not much of a ‘pet’ person. I like when pets have good manners, I like people with good manners too. Sadie stood right on me as I was laying in the water. It was so cute & funny. True love.
Enjoy the day lovelies. I love this song by Baz Luhrman, inspiring and insightful. If you’ve never heard it, I’m so happy you are finally going to. Remember to wear sunscreen! xo
THEN VOTE FOR ME TO WIN THIS DARN THING ALREADY. Contest has 30 days still.
Look at this dudes style. WOW! Yes, Imma creeper who took his photo on the street while walking behind him. This is “street unstyle” – faceless fashion victims as photographed by Casie Stewart. This might get huge, watch for it.
Patio hang @ 99’s Patio with Raymbo last night. So good to chill just the two of us and talk shit about awesomeness and stuff. She had a brills idea to see if we could score tickets to Second City with our combined fame. I called, it worked. Two tickets – RAYMI/CASEY. Thanks manager guy!
We saw this show. It was kinda funny. I’m not that great art shows you have to keep quiet the whole time. I like to laugh and talk. I remember last time I went I got in trouble. This time, I became part of the show for yelling out ‘internet’. You’re welcome for the great material.
Couple dudes sent us drinks from across the bar. Thanks for supporting alcoholism dudes! We might be gettin’ decked out in some golf gear in the near future. Stay tuned for that hotness.
See you tomorrow. Heading for a nice walk with someone handsome. Beautiful night!
Beautiful day. Go outside. Soak up the sun. Hit the beach. Run around. Arms over head. Open heart. Work later. Play now. Be free. Dip in the water. Play music. Sing. Dance.
Live it out. This is your life.
The other day I wentto Oyster Boy. Great fish & chips in that little place. Oh, and oysters too. It’s on Queen Street just West of Bellwoods, same block. Cute story of the place. You would probably like it there.
