NXNE was fun except I got sick after and didn’t even go to that many shows. Didn’t do much of the MMVA either besides a few afternoon stops on Sunday. Wasn’t feelin’ it this year. Jackie my old friend, it was lovely to see you.
The Red Bull patio is always a good time. It’s the spot above their super rad office on Queen Street.

… it was winter with the weather and how cold I have been for the last 24 hours.
After a very busy two weeks my whole body said ‘NO’ do doing anything and I’m on sick day #2. I hate it. There are heaps of things happening at work and not being there gives me the FOMO. There’s a bunch of events this week too but I can’t even begin to think about going anywhere. I am wrapped up in scarf, hat, Lazy Pants, warm socks, snuggie, and duvet. There’s a Ravi Soups around the corner, I wonder if they deliver?

I crashed my car into the bridge. I watched, I let it burn. I threw your sh*t into a bag and pushed it down the stairs cleaned the house, baked cookies, and make kale chips. Happy Fathers Day! They are a little burnt but I DON’T CARE, I LOVE IT. I crashed drove my car the Lexus all day yesterday to the Bowmanville zoo (photos coming) and around town in massive traffic, but I DON’T CARE, I LOVED IT.
This is my Dad & I – Love you Dad! He’s in LA for the LA Roadsters Fathers Day show.

Today is the Field Party, one of the BIGGEST MMVA weekend shindigs. It’s run by my friend Karine Delage and last year I filmed an episode of THIS on Coral TV at the event. It’s the spot everyone goes before hitting the red carpet (or bar) at the MMVAs. Tonight, I’m planning to go to the Universal Music party and the 235 Films party for the Drake video (my BF worked on Started from the Bottom). Last year he (BF) won an MMVA award for DWW’s ‘Big Wheels’ vid. This year, The Field Inc. is celebrating 10 MMVA noms for their awesome directors. Huzzahhhhh!
The VIP giftbags are valued at $500 (um, HELLO!) and include the Just Dance video game (I have/love this on XBox!), Green & Black chocolate (YUM!), Atlantis Niagara Ice wine, Hypnotiq, Fireball, Sleeman, John Allans products, Calvin Klein underwear (M/F?), MJ Cosmetics, and treats from Bath & Body Works.
Man, was it ever nice out yesterday. Today I’m taking Emily to the ZOO!
Picked out some socks for one of my most fav Dads in the world. Love the Father’s Day box they come in.
Got myself some new vintage overall shirts. Super cute, love love.
Glad it’s really nice out today. We have a VIP meet and greet with the animals! Squeeeeee!

Ladies & gents, as you may know it MMVA weekend in our fine city. I’ve attended the MMVAs, had friends win awards, and in 2010 I was the Social Media Manager of the show. The best part of the whole night are the after parties. This year I’ll be on the Universal Music bus with artists (who shall not be named!), at the at Universal party, ans then the 235Films party celebrating Drake’s video (that my BF worked on!).

Hashtag cards we made at MuchMusic in 2010.

Bench Lounge with BHD I hosted in 2011.
Dress I had made by Peach Berserk in 2010.
I can’t believe I’m wearing winter clothes in June. Hardly rode my bike the last few weeks cause we’ve had so much rain and it’s been chilly. Just finished from a haircut at Evolve Hair Studio with Sonya. This sweater was a gift from kiwi designer Adrian Hailwood during NZ Fashion Week in 2010 when I was a VIP guest.
On the bright side, since this is the first summer I’ve worked full time in over two years, I don’t really mind the weather. I can only imagine how hard it will be to gaze out the window when it’s super sunny and warm.
Hope the day is treating you well 🙂

Remember this post from a couple weeks ago? Turns out I took place in Coco Cola project Surprise Notes and I didn’t even know it!
Happiness is spread with unexpected notes scattered through the city.

The Arts & Crafts Field Trip yesterday was so much fun. Spending Sunday lazing around, cooking, and watching Arrested Development. Might take the old Corvette for a spin later!
Enjoy the day!

Le tired today. It’s very rainy and gloomy here.
Currently experiencing the worst hair ever. En route home from Montreal. I think this was the shortest trip I’ve ever taken. Event last night was good.
Next stop, Toronto. Heading to Fort York for the Arts & Crafts Field Trip today. I hope it’s not too cold!
Ok, engine started. Ready for takeoff!

This is my new Canon Rebel SL1. It’s the worlds smallest and lightest DSLR. I’m super excited to have received it last night from Canon as part of their first ever ambassador program. They’ve chosen five top bloggers in Canada to learn to use different Canon cameras in different ways. From now till December, I’ll be stepping up my photo game and learning how to really use this thing. I’m amazed at some of the features and stoked to take my skills to the next level. I’ve never had a DSLR before! My first ever digital camera was a Canon Powershot and I replaced it several times after losing and breaking it beyond repair. Looking forward to taking you on this journey with me.
