It’s great to be back at work. Emails & meetings about social media and checking Twitter, Google, Internet and Facebook (TGIF) for the scoop on our shows. Did you know the worlds tallest building opens today in Dubai? On the very top is the worlds highest club ever. Imagine how high you would feel partying there? No, seriously. Cra-zay.
I wonder if Dr. Drew will get in there and chat to Tiger now that he’s jumped on the celebrity rehab train?
..canada and the olympics?
I wish I never got tired. I could soak up stuff around the internet for hours and hours. I’m addicted to learning, reading, pretty things and blogging.
I read a great article on ReadWriteWeb – 10 ways social media will change in 2010. I love this stuff. The ability to connect everyone around the world to information and each so fast really blows my mind.
good ones: online-offline integration, women rule
The IOC been getting pissed about people taking photos of stuff. We should totally have heaps of sourced stuff for the Olympics. Canada is SO ONLINE and it all starts in 39 days. I wanna feel like I’m there, the Vancouver Project is trying to make sure we can all be there.
I’m back to using disqus comments, shall you help me test them? That wold be nice. Facebook Connect also got a recent makeover.
Have a great day. Welcome back to work ♥

If you don’t know what you’re search for, it’s hard to find it.
Depends what you’re searching but twitter search is kinda fun. Advanced options make searching for what you want easier, not harder. Positive attitude comes up in the search bar as a winky face 🙂 i like it
I watched 50 First Dates today. I imagine losing my memory…writing a post of what I did everyday, it would be the only way to go on. Ya, great idea…make a new movie about a girl with a blog who forgets, there’s an idea.
Talk about social media robot! New event, new people everyday. Online update, real life modern Truman, human. By the way, there’s body scans and pat downs at the airport now, wear nice undies and good bra if you have boobs.
Check out this kid, barefoot bandit! He’s a little badass. I loved catch me if you can… Frank Abagnale Jr.
It was really cold out so I stayed inside after a quick trip to see a few awesome people. Checked stealklingkitty.tumblr found this.
Made me think of Fall and a photo from the summer by kellykruschel in Liberty Village. Bids flying, warm, sun on my face, it was beautiful that day. Monday will be beautiful too, it will be day 4: 04012010, the numbers look nice.
The interesting thing about life is it’s not always rainbows and unicorns, sometimes it’s hard. But, that’s also what makes it great, which is confusing. Sometimes you get yourself into situations and you’re not really sure how you got there so fast and then you realize you don’t like it so much. Life is about working through things.
Today, I’m looking at the insides, the skeleton; what makes me they way I am, why do I like and why I do things. If I want this to keep being the best year ever there’s a few kinks I wanna iron out. It’s not surprising to me that I woke up feeling odd today, today is day three. I hate the number three. I try to avoid doing things in three’s when I can. It started when I was a little kid and it never went away.
I’m really excited for this year and I’ve got a really good feeling that excitement is not going anywhere but more. I got an agent today, new media. I’m looking forward to so many things. Have you checked out the Blog Girls lately, they’re all doing good too.
start it the same way you end it?
01022010 –Numbers ‘count’ as palendromes and today is one. This is a really long one and good for the day: Are we not drawn onward, we few, drawn onward to new era [more].
I have fun on the internet…for example: I just clicked a link from a guy on twitter and it took me to a tumblr when I clicked on it and found this site: My Life Is Average. At first I thought, average, like ordinary..who wants to be ordinary? But that’s not it, it’s little things not so bad like simple pleasures and some are funny. Like this:
“On Thanksgiving, my grandma asked my cousin and me what “wtf” means. Not wanting to destroy her innocence, we told her it means “where’s the fudge.” She then spent the rest of the night saying “wtf” to everyone in the family. MILA”
Legendary fun for the whole family I reckon. I can see Jenie and I and the cuzzies. My cousin Matt (with the camera) came to visit me in Australia and party this one time (fb pic). It was epic.
Count it down with me…goodbye 2009, HELLO FUTURE!
I had great meal to finish up the year followed buy a house party with a bunch of people I love. There’s no better way to spend New Years Eve than with people you love and admire.
Keri and had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with blog LEGEND Tony Pierce. I’ve got a whole post of great stuff just from brunch. I learned heaps from him about blogging and the internet. [THANKS TONY!] Guys’s got mad stories about when he started his blog amost 10 years ago, getting free trips, almost free girls (haha) and even a CAR!
I’m really really excited for 2010. I feel like it’s the future and i’m ready for it. This time last year I was in a job I hated with big dream about blogging and where I wanted to be. Now, I am doing social media at MuchMusic MTV and i’m living the life I always dreamed of.
It’s a new year, set your goals higher than before, reach for the moon. You are a star if you believe it and there are no limits to what you can achive. I’m ready to conqued the world internet!
I hope your first day of 2010 was wonderful and everyday there after.
Now we’re going to see Avatar 🙂
Hotel Nacional is a really nice place to stay and had people from all over. Highly recommend going there. They’ll let you into the pool and all the different areas even if you’re not a guest.
We had a gay old time trying to guess who was from where based on the way they did or didn’t speak English. There was a lot of Euro’s and you could spot them based on their style. We saw a bunch from peeps Brazil too.
As far as I knew Americans weren’t allowed in Cuba, however, this is not the case. They don’t stamp your passport and you can’t fly direct. I made friends with an American girl who came from Cuba and an Aussie living in NY who flew in from Toronto.
In the woods of Snookie…..”parties here”!
I’m watching Holiday Wrap’s 100 top vids and it’s great. Christina’s Dirty is on right now. I LOVED this song so hard. We had a dance to the whole thing.
We used to do it at the bar. We’d even go early to practice. Loose Change Louie’s & The Rev in Waterloo were THE SPOTS back then.
I was living at Mum’s and in College at Conestoga in Kitchener. Sarah Baker, Buddy, Gay, I know you remember that shit! It was awesome. We were always dancing back then…
Is Rev still cool? I checked out the site and it made me think of Jersey Shore right away. haha
I don’t typically make them because when I decide to do things, I just do them. I don’t wait for time or someone else, I make change when I want to which is usually when I think of it really. Genius eh.
A few times over the last few years I’ve decided to so something chill on New Years Eve so I can wake up and cook a nice breakfast, read a bit of something that is not on the internet, hear music and see friends and most importantly…smile. Waking up with a hangover hating yourself is a shitty way to start a new year.
I just saw this art thing on Carson Daily called Decent Exposures. Looks like fun. This one time he was at the MET and his model, Casie/Casey (not sure spelling) was arrested on the way out. She got off ok but the photos were gone forever…they had the video.
And another thing, found a poetic post from last year with photos from a nice place. It’s been a good year this one…ah, 2010. Whoa.
Talk about geek chic. Saw these on Etsy a while ago and Kelly tweeted she woulds love to see me in them. Agreed! They’re so damn adorable/sexy/nerdy…my favorite.
A #twabe is a Twitter babe. I went through a stage where I tweeted it all the time. I have shirts with the twabe hashtag too. Yeah, pretty amazing.
I learned from an Aussie friend that nearly half of the Cubans living in Old Havana were staying in residences unfit for humans.
On the last touring day we stepped off the main roads and saw a very different sight. The houses were so disgusting and broken down. I couldn’t believe people were actually living there.
I instantly became grossed out and didn’t want to eat or drink anything from there. I’ve worked in restaurants before and could only imagine what the kitchens looked like. Gross.
You can tell at one point the buildings were really beautiful but it’s been years since they’ve had new paint or work done. They’re all washed out and the concrete is crumbling.
There are residences with very narrow staircases where the first floor is all dirty and inhabited then you look up and see laundry hanging out the second and third floor windows.
We passed a block that looked abandoned and dirty then a couple doors down, a furnished house with working TV.
A bunch of kids were playing volleyball in a square amongst more dilapidated buildings and half of them had no shoes on.
It made me sad to see a place I though was so beautiful was really a shell of what it once was. So many stories and photos from differnt stuff.
I’ve got cuban cars, food, style, travellers, music and more all written and I just need to post them. I would have taken week to do it there! I really enjoyed learning about life there.
