merry christmas from cuba amigos

I’m having a blast. Staying at a five star called Hotel Nacional de Cuba Not internetting very much cause it’s so freaking slow and painful. Figure I’m better to save myself the trouble and drink pina colada’s in the sun. Best pina’s here EVER! Old Havana is so neat. I took about 8,000 photos walking around. Saw a cool show last night with musica & dancing. That’s all for now…back outside to the sunshine! Have a great day, I am 🙂

chasing your own tail around the christmas tree

Holidays are pretty much the busiest time of the year…for everyone. This week I’m running around like freaking MANIAC. It seems, so is everyone else I know/need to see/like/love/try to avoid. Tonight is the finale for one of our shows at work, you might have heard of it, Peak Season? Anyhooters, I’ll be tweeting away for that tonight. Tomorrow I’m getting my teeth whitened thanks to Pure Med Spa. Hope it doesn’t hurt! Wednesday is the ever famous HoHoTO that I’m planning to make an appearance at. Thursday, is  pretty much the last day before I leave to finish up all my work for blogMuch/MTV cause Friday is filled with holiday jazz. Thursday night I’ve got my sista coming by to pick up holiday prezzies for the whole fam-dam. Ah…take a deep breath…all I really wanna do is this…..

A Little Life Lately – December 2024

Here’s a little life lately update! I had three auditions for commercials this week, and I booked one! The job is for a US furniture store, and it will also be in print, digital, and OOH (out of home, aka billboards!). I’m posting these photos to remember this natural hairstyle, but I’ll return to blonde in the new year. I’m also getting new headshots to kick off 2025 with a bang! 🎇 Last week, I went to the Fox Theatre in the Beaches to hear a Q&A with author Julia McKay (Marissa Stapley), which my friend Jen Kirsch hosted. I’m listening to her book ‘The Holiday Honeymoon Switch’ on Audible. So far, it’s the perfect light-hearted book I need in my life. A great holiday read! Get a copy here. Last week I spent a few days with my dad and sister, it was so lovely. Being with family, especially this time of year, is really great. Christmas has never been a big celebration with my family, as most of us are in New Zealand. For the next month, I am house-sitting at a friend’s place and taking care of her plants. It’s really nice to be in her beautiful space, and I kinda like being alone. This is where I am typing this from! I hope you are enjoying this holiday season and doing exactly what you want to do. The holidays can be a stressful time and I wish nothing but peace and rest for you!

Halloween 2022: Witchy Woman

This year’s Halloween was pretty chill, although I wore a witch costume almost everywhere I went from Friday to Monday. She’s a witchy woman! On Friday night Sean and I were at his office and saw there was a show at Velvet Underground. It turned out to be TikTok star Akintoye and he was INCREDIBLE. Next, we stopped by Baby G on Dundas and saw Fluffio, I hadn’t heard of them but they were GREAT. On Saturday, we took a family adventure to the Parkdale Spooky Market which was fun. The sun was shining and it was SO WARM OUT. We picked up a few things then I walked home. On Monday, I dressed up for our all-hands meeting and wore a family heirloom, this scary old lady mask my dad used to wear to take us trick or treating. It’s a classic with my friends and we always laugh at it. Was fun to see how many people dressed up for the meeting this year! Our Funday office in Armenia carved pumpkins and I ran polls to guess who did each one. I did not get wild on actual Halloween, went to my fav class at the gym, and wore my fav Valfre outfit. Look at me, a workout witch! Abs are coming in! I was really slack with my workouts this summer, feels good to be back on my game. That’s a wrap on Spooky Season 2022, time for Christmas music!
