welcome to trinity bellwoods park. it’s a hip spot queen west if you don’t know already.
cruised into the park with Sheldon and Jessica ready to’boggan some hill
it was dark by the time we arrived at the bowl. same place i do to drum circle in the summer. there’s a video of me going down the hill screaming somewhere. haha. it was chilly but we can handle it. we’re cool.
as you can see my photos are blue tinty and blurry. i like it like that ok. borderline artistic.
ice rink, CN tower, snow = oh so canadian.
ice cold.
we were dancing to chromeo in the snow to keep warm (oh so hipster), stomping the snowy path making it easier to walk on. that’s why we called it a public service… this is the announcement. happy weekend 🙂
Jenie stayed over last night and I’ve successfully not been drunk yet this year. Yay me. Feels good. We watched movies and stuff and it was pretty much the best ever.
Posting this via mobile but have a good pic of our boots on my camera. My boots are Hunter and I gave Jenie my Cougars…”Cougar Hunter”. Funny to me ok. That’s what really matters here. haha.
Woke up to winter wonderland, you can hardly see the ground. We made brekky and now heading to studio of my friend and fashion photographer Lynsie Roberts. Doing work from her place this afternoon.
This week has been really busy. Good busy. Monday I worked in my hibernation station, had meetings the rest of the days and now it’s Friday. Whoa. Flew by.
Going to meet a girlfriend for lunch then gonna try & pop by a friends new office space. I love when friends get new office space. I’m so proud and grateful to have the people around me I do. They’re all so smart and good at stuff. INSPIRING!
Last night wa slike a blizzzzzzzzzzzzard. I walked two blocks and then from a friends place in the neighbourhood and jesus cripes it was windy-snow-blowy.
I was practically attacked & violated by the weather.
The island is looking incredibly beautiful today. This photo doesn’t show just how lovely the water is glittering in the sun. I love living here. I love glitter.
This song has been stuck in my head all day. So, I’M PASSING IT ON.
I can’t stop thinking about this movie. It’s the sharing that sometimes creeps me out. The ‘onlineness’ of my life. That movie got me thinking about privacy and openness. I obviously don’t mind being open and sharing about my life and thought to myself, ‘where do I draw the line?’ Where do you draw the line? Is there even a line? Do I care about a line?
I leave out certain things from you, the internet, my friends, things like sex, dating, my family, pretty much any problems I have as well as feelings of sadness/anger. Would I be more real if I shared all that? Am I less real because I don’t?
To a bunch of people, I’m a girl from the internet, possibly someone they (you) feel connected to but have never met. On the other hand, there’s many people I’ve met via Twitter who know me, but don’t really know me at all.
It boggles my mind when I think about our world sometimes. Everyone is so connected. I feed on connections with people. I need them. I’m sitting at my desk as I write this with a external monitor for my netbook (two screens going) while my iPad is beside me (anbother screen) and my phone beside that (four screens). All have twitter running and multilple email accounts and the second I hear a sound from one of them my attention is captured.
Maybe that’s it right there, my attention is captured by the internet, by you. I don’t really know how I feel about the future of the internet but I like it. Even if it makes me feel funny sometimes.
It’s a crazy world we live in. We live in public.
This is what I did last night… I took a break from work for an hour to check out Nat & Marie on ustream then stream live myself on twitcam while my friend Jason streamed from his house. Jason and I chatted with people via twitter and watched each other (twitter-skype?).
To me, was the funniest thing ever. I just watched it again and it was funny.
I really like being on camera.
he started it, so then i started it too:
I posted it before but maybe you didn’t watch it, here’s the trailer for We Live In Public. This very blog post enticed reader @the_jmoney to blog his thoughts about the same topic. Check out his post ‘overshare or unique TV’.
Founds these pix from my trip last month to Puerto Rico.. We took a day cruise with about 20 people on a huge catamaran off the coast to some little island where there was a reef and went snorkeling. The pix certainly warmed me up a little! Enjoy xo
it was sooooo beautiful.
i considered staying with my hot puerto rican BF and Captain Ron…
but, by the end of the day, i craved wifi and modern technology.
AND relised I was quite hammered from so many RUMski’s in the hot sun. AI MAMI!!
it was my first time snorkeling and WOW, it was so amazing. i felt like a FISH!
then again, he was really hot though w/ tattoos and spoke soft spanish words to me….
ah, well. simple pleasures 😉
team boston aka team AWESOME!!
ONLINE (there was one of these in english right by my house when i left)
FYI: been using that jergens lotion and it’s kinda helping me keep a nice glow
this is where i was staying, El San Juan. SO NICE.
