you really gotta work hard for what you want

“That’s a strange combination” was the response I got from Darius this morning on Twitter after I posted “tired.inspired.”  That’s how I feel. I told him I’d explain in a blog post and I’m quite happy to.

I’m tired. I’m exhausted but I can’t seem to slow down, take a break, rest, sleep, or simply ‘do nothing’ because I am inspired. I’m excited. I want to work more and harder and pick up speed.

The hardest part has now become focusing my time making the most out of each moment. It’s either working towards goals or doing things that inspire me to set new ones.

It’s how entrepreneurs & inventors feel, driven.  When you bust your ass  working hard and you wanna sleep but you stay up all night to put in a few more hours because you love it.

That’s how I feel. I love it.

Today I am listening to Selah Sue and I did my hair like this girl with dark purple nail polish, red bandana.

i think she's pretty and i've got the same glasses in black

I checked Twitter just before posting this and Darius had just posted one of my favorite quotes…

Words to live by.

Have a nice humpitty hump day…

* Did you see Marilyn Monroe smoking pot?

It’s Britney’s birthday too, Happy Birthday once former idol. I hope this year is less train-wercky than the past few xo Casie

tonight we get together and gab about the goss

I’m having a bunch of babes over to watch The Hills/City finale tonight: @kericdn @kaponetwo @biancaswane @elsacohen @rochlatinsky @destiniya @carolzara & maybe @jhoo04

Cast Confessions: From The Hills And The City (9-10 p.m. ET), The Hills Season Finale (10-10:30 p.m. ET), The City Season Finale (10:30 – 11 p.m. ET) and finally Dan & Jessi host The Finale: Live In New York (11 – 11:30 p.m. ET).

MTV’s got Audrina, Whitney, Roxy, Kristin, Holly, Stacie, Lo, Brody, Olivia, Erin and Justin Bobby all packed into one amazing night.

OMG. It all starts at 9 ET!


rogers, bell, telus? iphone, blackberry?

this is like the hardest decision I’ve faced in ages…

Sorry you're faced with the unspeakable trauma of having to choose between a BlackBerry and an iPhone

It would be MUCH easier if one of the companies would just CALL/TWEET/EMAIL/SMS/COMMENT/FB me and say:

“Hi Casie, I’m “awesome person” from “company that loves social media, buzz & cool people talking about us online/offline all the time” and we’d like to give you a phone! I will say “ok, love you forever”.

Easy pleasey. Mama needs a new phone. Gonna get one real soon anyways but I though I’d throw it out there. You don’t ask you don’t get as Mum says! I’m using a non-smart dumb phone at the moment cause I had to give my old BB back.  It makes me sad. Saddy, sad, sad.

I wont even get into the Blackberry Intervention I had from 5 friends the other night.

My fingaz are CROSSED. [closes eyes and makes a wish]

That is all for now.

holy effing elf shit, it’s december already!

Doesn’t it seem like January was just the other day? Urgh. Well, anyhooters…

Feeling positive and ready for the new month. I just got this new stuff in the mail from Givenchy…

I can’t wait to test out all these goddies…The mascara is blue/purple. The shadow is black/metallic. The gloss is pink/sparkley.  Yes, I love. (love blogging!)

It felt like Christmas at the office yesterday, two bags were delivered and one big one with goodies for Heart for the Holidays on Friday. Remember to get a ticket, if you can’t come then make a donation, and lets all have a good time. I’ll be one of Santa’s little helpers doing good deeds and drinking holiday eggnog juice.

I keep all the fragrances out so the girls can try them when they come over. This one was an instant hit. At first spray is citrussy and refreshing then once you let it sit on your skin for a few, it’s gorgeous. It’s right up there with Givenchy Play that I also wear (even though it’s for men).

Good holiday gift idea: Available at shoppers until March only and it $60 for the 50ml.

I have a fragrance gift set to give to one of you guys this month too. Stay tuned for that!

Opened my advent calendar today! Thanks Mum. Love you xo

Have a great day!

p.s. Hills/City finale is tonight on MTV 9-11:30pm from NYC. I’ll be on @mtvcanada & my Twitter if you wanna follow the gossip/drama 😉
