you are as young as you will ever be

I feel so lucky. I have really awesome friends around me. I feel young and like I can take on the world. I can. You can. Yes we can. The last couple days have really been some of the best. I have spent heaps of time with people I really care about. Enjoyed the sun. Splashed in water. Had BBQ. Danced in the street.

Someone special made me dinner. Got a tan. Phone chats with old friends. Soft kisses. Poetry writing. Photo diary. New office space (with windows!). Time alone. Pretty dresses. Rainbows. Sweet dreams.

The summer has only begun and I don’t ever want it to end. Thank you everyone around me for inspiring me to share the light you give.

* Side note, help me share MORE awesomeness (fun & positivity) by voting for me in to be the Virgin America Provocateur. It’s not a job it’s more of like being ‘the person’ who throws parties and gets people excited about the brand, the ambassador. I really think I’d be awesome at it! VOTE HERE. It’s super easy & takes 2 seconds.

HAPPY PRIDE!

Coverd in rainbows! Weeee!

Watched the Cindy Lauper concert with Kristen & a friend last night.

It was truly awesome. So was my little Cindy inspired outfit.

Enjoy the day friends. Wear sunscreen, it’s a scorcher out there! Drink WATER!

Happy July 4th to all my American peeps too. I’ll be celebrating for us ALL! LOVE YOU!

i’ve always wanted to be a virgin girl

I figure it would be crazy of me to NOT enter to be the Virgin America Toronto Provocateur. Who knows? I might win. It includes free flights for a year and  some pretty sweet perks.  I have been in looooove with the Virgin brand for years, following all the many things that Richard does. He is someone I really admire for his creativity and business acumen.

If you love me, vote for me. It’s not a full time gig so I could still keep my job and just add on all the perks of being a Virgin girl. Awesome? Heck yes.

good morning, good morning, and how are you today?

Pretty awesome. Recognize this bathing suit?

Today is gonna be a…

Get in ma belly jet fuel. nomnomnom!

Have an awesome day. I’m heading to Pride to catch the Cindy Lauper concert and dance around. I love this weekend. SO many positive people bouncing round the streets. The city is alive with rainbows. Imma go ride my unicorn now ♥

mashable social media day :: toronto

I like social and media. And I like talking. Pix frm the event are here via Kevin Chung. Here’s my talk, I hope you enjoy it.

Casie Stewart (@casiestewart) at #SMdayTO from Ron Wolf

I like talking about how many awesome people I have met through twitter. How I got a job because I really loved the internet, being social and sharing creativity all over the place. I like landscape photos better than portrait. I like when the sun shines through the clouds and you can see it coming right at you. I like writing the stories as they happen and living out all kinda of adventures. I like being positive, it’s really the best medicine you can give yourself.

I’ve always liked to write. In 1996 my friend Holly and I, with the help of our Mum’s publihed and anthology of poetry & prose called JEANS. It was all kinds of things we had written in Grade. 8. I wanna publish a new book. I have hundreds written verse and such just dying to have your eyes. Words all wanting attention. I’ve decided to hire and intern, I need some help with the casiestewart.com stuff. Looking for someone unique, someone kinda like me to be honest; loves internet, learning, sharing, twitter, hard work, fun. There’s always skill involved but the things that really matter most are not learned in class.

What I think (1996)

I’d like to do more public speaking. I like it and I’m just getting started. I won in a speech competition about a hundred years ago when I was younger. This one time, in drama class, I read my whole speech with my back facing the audience, it was the speech you tell youself before you go on stage. The two minute “you can do this, you are prepared, review key points ,come on just get out there and go, you are awesome”. Then, as I finished I turned around smiled at the audience and introduced myself. I loved that one.

so many epic days in a row thanks to you

This one time, on Canada Day, when I was 16, I won a beauty pageant. I got to ride in a convertable in the parade and wave like the Queen. It was awesome. I always wanted to do that, so I did.

My sister won Little Miss and I was Miss Teen. Long hair and braces, wow, that was a LOOONG time ago. THANK YOU CANADA for being so awesome and a country where I know I can achieve ANYTHING I want. I am proud to be Canadian.

I love the Classified version of Oh Canada! Stand on guard for theeeeeeeeeeee!

toronto mashable meetup tweetup geekup speakup

Tomorrow is Social Media Day hosted worldwide by Mashable. I’ll be attending the Toronto Meetup Tweetup along with about 75 other social medialites from this fine city.

Mashable created this day to celebrate all media becoming social, the social media revolution. For a while there is was just geeks in the SM scene and now social media has become part of pretty much every marketing campaign out there. Three cheers for social media! I love you internet. As it stands right now, I will be speaking at the event. How cool is that? My talk will only be about 10ish minutes and I’ll be addressing the two questions I get asked the most and a third if I have time.

1. How to get a job in social media?
2. How to get free stuff?
3. Managing multiple personalities (online)

RSVP for the Toronto Meetup can be found here or on Facebook here.

When: Wednesday, June 30, 2010 @ 8:00 PM
Where: Madison Avenue Pub, 14 Madison Avenue

The thing I love MORE than anything about the social web are the people I have met because of it. These are som eof my friedns that were at the Klout Tweetup @ The Gladstone last night.

island adventure to find your love and baby i found it

After walking around for coffee on Sunday for about an hour (almost everything in my hood was closed G20), I decided to day trip it to the island.

I chose Wards Island as I have never been there before and was keen for a true adventure. Got the ‘I’m on a Boat’ badge on Foursquare for checkin’ in on the Island Ferry. This was a great way to start.

I was dressed like a teenage dirtbag, in fact,  a lesbian teenage dirtbag wearing rainboy bikini top. It IS Pride Week so, kinda fitting  I guess.

It was sunny all afternoon. It was hot. Spent some time staring at boats. Mum is about to sail to Bahamas on her boat next month. I dream of doing that one day too.

Camera got a little heat stroke from humidity (that’s what I’m calling the water effect) and it started taking blurry photos. Regardless, I LOVE my new camera. It’s making the life-documentation process way more fun.


Soaked it in some dry rice when we got home, baby is back in action now. That trick works for phones too. If anyone knows about wrecking devices, it’s ME.  I’ve been through so many since starting this blog, not even gonna try counting.

It was more than lovely. So relaxing. There was no noise, no distractions. I needed that.  I needed a break from my busy life.

I hung out on the couch at the Island Cafe on Wards Island. Read a book. A real book, like hardcover.

I love the island, gonna go back a few times this summer. It’s amazing how refreshing a couple hours away can be. Enjoy the day!

you’re sexy, you’re cute, put down your riot suit

Her dad is an engineer, this might work. Ya?

Our streets.

Wondered if anyone was gonna say something about my outfit, but nah. I guess I don’t look like a trouble maker? Kinda hard when I’m so smiley all the damn time. It’s true.

Then it rained. It got kinda crazy so I bounced. I ran home in the downpour and by that time I looked like this. What a crazy thing.

ATTENTION WORLD LEADERS: THERE IS A BETTER WAY.
Find it. Do it. Don’t waste money and time on all the crap that we saw this weekend. SRSLY.
Love Casie ♥

TFC game was awesome, you should have been there

Pure awesomism at the Toronto FC game Saturday. It was seriously 10. EPIC. Look at this badass crew on the field…

Group photos are so fun, lets do more of that ok. I loved seeing everyone IRL, it was a first meeting for a bunch of us.

I had been REALLY excited ALL day week. Being there DURING world cup, priceless.

This is my fav cheer “when the reds go marching in”. SUCH good energy. TFC games have THE BEST fans.

I tried to pay attention to the game but was totally distracted by the funnest crowd ever.

We got to go right down to the field as VIP’s with total babe as an escort (not me, the TFC guy on the left beside Michael).

Chatted Jonathan about doing it again so don’t worry, you can come then.

I was obvs prepped for the rain. This guy was prepped to cheer on!

Michael was the ONLY guy with brolly for the downpour. They’re not allowed at games but somehow, he got away with it. Must be the charm or good looks?

It was a tie and the crowd still cheered their faces off outside. It was stellar.

We were hangin’ @ Liberty Bistro for a while after the game. God it was so fun. The owner  and I go way back to when I used to work in Liberty Vill so he hooked us up with sweet table etc. Love that little spot.

Before we got table, we had hedge.

There are about 30 photos from the night in this web album TFC 2010. I can’t WAIT to go again. SO FUN.

Have a great day!
