happy 420 :)

This is my highest viewed video on youtube & also one of the oldest July 03, 2006. Some friends, Jenie and I were at Queens Park in Toronto after the Marijuana March and at 4:20pm there were 20,000 people celebrating together! Talk about up in smoke.

Every year Hot Box Cafe had a big ol’ celebration party.  I remember the dancing girls last year and this year, Little Miss Raymi is performing with her burlesque troop. In high school I was a Hot Box girl in Guys & Dolls, same kinda thing. Hot!

Looking forward to it. Puff puff pass 🙂

feelin’ just peachy baby

Last night was the final judging for Peach Berserk‘s dress design contest and boy was it fun! Wine and cheezies on the counter with dozens of designs drawn by students across North America.

These pix look really clear on my camera but for some reason when I upload them using WP Mobile they look kinda fuzzy. Please disregard!

image

These are the other two judges from HOAX Couture. We all agreed on the winner and pretty much picked the same top 5 without even knowing.

image

I loved going through them and seeing all the patterns and designs these kids came up with. If yo0u’ve never been to the shop you should pop by, it’s a burst of colour and art. Check out these tools hammers + blowdryers. Cute.

image

This is where the magic happens.

Kingi designed this little dress back in 1994.  Love it.

if you want it, come and get it, crying out loud

I put a gray tint in my hair yesterday. The little piece I had before washed out really fast and I wanted it back. Went to Shoppers and picked up Roux Fanci-Full Silver Lining Mousse.

This stuff is great – easy + fun to use. I use the blonde one when I need to get my hair done but don’t an appt scheduled. All you  do is put the mousse in your hair once towel dried, blow-dry and VOILA. It tints your hair then washes right OUT when you shampoo! My hair’s back to bright bleach blonde today.

Lots of work to do today. Tonight I’m heading over to Peach Berserk to Judge the entries for their Spring/Prom Dress Design contest. Lookin’ forward to it.

Yesterday I changed the URL’s on my photo blog + tech blog to subdomains of casiestewart.com. You can find them at posterous.casiestewart.com and  tumblr.casiestewart.com. Gonna try and rig up the borderline artistic in to a tumblr tonight, that baby needs some love from it’s mama.

Have a great day. Enjoy the warm sunshine 🙂

I’m down by the water near my house, Lake Ontario and it’s sooo lovely right now. Had a photoshoot earlier today with Erika .

When it was done I strolled over to the Beer Store and got a couple Sapporo and came to lay in the grass.

The sun is shining so beautifully on the water. I’m watching planes land at the Island Airport. Lots of people walking by with dogs, holding hands, speaking different languages. Saw a cute boy on a longboard. Its so refreshing to sit outside in the sun and be alone to think and recharge my batteries.

Gonna head home soon as it gets a little chilly and watch the Junos and do a little Tweeting for @mtvcanada.

Today is a good day, Sunday Funday.

this is a pretty good blogging phone

I took these pix yesterday with phone camera then edited using photo edit. I’m using WordPress for Android to blog this and I’m testing out all the options right now. I’ve named this sexy little phone the Motorola ‘Stone‘ Milestone. My Netbook is Bobby and this is my now other computer and our relationship is getting pretty serious.

You can use HTML in the post window of the WP app which would be helpful if you knew it really well. I’m not totally ‘fluent’ but I like it. You’re able to change the image size but not to ANY size, only by 100’s. Not ideal but ok. I’m sure that will be added sometime.

I’ve notived that my dear Bobby has been a bit neglected since I’ve been spending most my time with my paws on Stone. Mobile posting is so convenient. Because the camera on this baby takes such great pix, it allows me to cut out any time uploading images or editing on computer.

If you thought I blogged lots before, jus’ wait.

gonna fixer up real good old rusty

Finally gonna take my baby in for a tuneup. I very unsuccesfully fixed her myself. The chain is so rusty and not on properly. Maybe I should try some rust converter spray? I’m pretty sure someone jumped on it and twisted the middle pedal part while it was locked up on one of the TO bike stands. I reeeeeally hope it can get fixed, I love this bike so much. She’s like my summer bff.

Looks like a nice day out. Kinda overcasty but warmish. I went to Wicked last night. It was wicked.

you’re such a nerd.

It’s Foursquare Day so I had this shirt made this morning. I’m going to a the Toronto Foursquare party at the Loose Moose with other Tweeps who play this game. That’s my Friday night. Yeah, I know what you’re thinking. It’s ok. I’ve been told a bunch of times today.

jus’ call me no time sally

Heyooo. Cra-zay busy today.

Saw these dudes outside work today and got some Kick-Ass bandaids. Guy had some serious moves. I kinda wanted to roll the kid for her wig. I need to get some new wigs before I head to Florida next month. Ya, excited.

They (Maple Pictures) have a room set up in the store front that they use for movie/promo stuff. We watch out the window from the office and troll over when we know they’re givin’ out free stuff.  I love these guys, trolly’s.

This is Oliver (Oli-vee-eh) my friend from France. He’s here doing a massive bike ride across Canada. He was sponsored by Adidas + a bunch of other peeps in Paris. If you wanna help him out, lemme know! We were playing with all my glasses the other day. It;s fun, can’t you tell?!

Have a dinner date tonight with a friend. Gonna go home and work on some blog shiz while the sun is still out. Tomorrow is Foursquare day (4/16). This  is the badge we’re all gonna get for checking in tomorrow. There’s a big Foursquare-rager at The Loose Moose tomorrow night. Gonna be there throwin’ back pints. Oh yeah.

I’m gonna be in Torontoist later today right here. Stay tuned for it. This mama’s ready for THE WEEKEND! Ok. Meeting time 🙂

you’ve got a smile that could light up this whole town

So like, do you wanna be in my band? It’s called The Best Bandever and it’s starring me.

I’ve written enough tracks to put out a double album. I sing too.

You must be really fun and like to hang out in parks and play in the sun.

Taylor Swift by Annie Leibovitz in the May issue of Vogue. Same concept.

I look like Mum here. Love you.

Did ya see this stud on Mashable today? Oh yeah, Bretten MacLean (@etothez) chatting about his TweetAgora at the Chirp conference for Twitter developers.

off campus trippin’

I like to leave little things, notes, stickers around. Kinda like bread crumbs in Hansel and Gretel to remember where I’ve been. My team found this little note at one of drawing the stations.

The big wooden staircase is really pretty,  one of my favorite things about the AGO. Haven’t been there in a while and man, it was so nice to be there again. Got a new membership card and prolly gonna go hang there this weekend. Members lounge has wifi + coffee + sunshine. YEAH boyeee.

This fine group is who I work with with, we’re the MuchMTV Marketing team. All the peeps Tweet and from L-R  are Gregg (another Stewart!), Ashley, Justin, Me, Kingsley & Mike. We’re all looking very ‘stripey’ together. Nice pose by me, haha.  One person missin’ is our boy, all-star intern Wee Magee.

Look at these studs Andy, Elvis AND Greg Stewart!

Love Gallery Italia, this part of the AGO is sooo lovely in the sunshine, especially in the middle of a weekday afternoon.

Kinda looks like a pic from unhappyhipsters.com.

Then we went for beers, ya! Happy hipsters!

All in a days work.

I was chillin’ with ma new kicks.

Had some eats to wash down my beerski. Yum.

Then I headed home in the sunshine to band practice.

no smiling allowed missy, wanna see your serious face

Got up early and filled out my passport application. Photos later this afternoon. I need to renew my Canadian before I ship off to FLO-RIDA next month. Stoked. This little lady is due for a vacay!

Wearing jeans today, rarely ever wear jeans (or pants). These babies are from a shop I worked at in Bondi Beach. I loved that job & beach side surfy life. Loving my new photo spot in the morning, it’s SO sunny.

New Converse today too. I usually pick up a new pair in the spring time so I can wear them out during the Spring and draw on them in the park in the Summer.

My team at work is going to the AGO this afternoon. Remember how much I used to go the AGO? I’ve got a membership but haven’t been in ages. Quite looking forward to it.

I hope you enjoy the day. GLEE is on tonight! YESSSSSSSS. Ok. Bye 🙂

meaning full of high-spirited delight

excited for…

and going here this arvo with work mates…

windy weather cast #005 from Casie Stewart on Vimeo.

It’s Casie and I’m at the AGO and it is sooo windy here today. I don’t know if you’ve been to the AGO before but I really suggest you check it out. They’ve got a lot of great stuff happening here, lot of artists, really interesting things for you to check out. So go to the AGO because it’s really neat.

Spring Flowers Blooming in a Concrete Jungle

Came across this old blog post I wrote in 2010. It’s amazing how many memories flood back from a single photo. I guess that’s why they sa a photoa is worth a thousand words. I could wrote almost a thousand about every photo in this blog archive.

One of the reasons i started keeping a blog diary was to keep more memories. People, places, things, and thoughts.

I’m glad things change. it’s cool to see how much I’ve grown over the years.

people,anxiety….glasses on, breate, smile go .

My taxi cab smells like a skunk, or really stank weed t I think is skunk. Dear god, do not let me step out of this cab smelling like it, I’m on my way to LG Fashion Week . Yesterday I was more into it, now it feels like work. I AM actually working, that’s probably why. But, honestly… I wanna stay there all day and be tired of sooooo many fashion shows. I always wanted that.
I’m wearing hot pink tights and jazz shoes aka saddle shoes.
We’re here. Oh god, here we go again.
