Tech | Social Media Day -Toronto is one of most most social in the world.

I’d like to think I had something to do with that. I kid, I kid. We’re SO online and our  Social media Day meetup is SO BIG that Mashable wrote about us today. We Toronto peeps know how to have fun. Get social baby. Props to Michael Nus & Dan Levy for putting this together. Last year I spoke about running the social media for MuchMusic & MTV Canada & this year I’m speaking about building a personal brand. Over 350 people are attending so it’s gonna, kinda a big deal. Wish Mum was here to see me in action. I’m sure someone will have on video. Last year I was JUST getting into speaking and has my hands in my pockets the whole time. Won’t do that again. What am I going to wear? I should really have planned this out. Hope to meet some new peeps & will for sure see a bunch of familiar faces. Looking forward to it. If you have any questions, ask away!

Queen Spadina Fire

Walked Brent Winsor to Brocklyn’s house and heard so many sirens on the way. This is where they were going… One of the units on the South side of Queen just West of Spadina across from CTS was on fire. Spadina/Adelaide/Queen Street shut down. People were evacuated. I saw a couple with their cats in cat cages. Sad, I really hope everyone is ok. I looked serious. One of the restos right there recently went out of business.  Other than that, no details to report. These are my photos. Adelaide East to Spadina. So many trucks. Fire was in the building right behind these fighters. Queen/Spadina. Queen Street West. Then I saw an open manhole on my way home. This is what it looks like inside. Casie Stewart, reporter of daily events on Toronto.

let the sun shine in.

We used to chill on the grass all the time when I was a kid. I love fresh cut grass. Was looking for a four leaf clover, those things are almost impossible to find. New Toms are rad & oh so cozy. Thanks Mum for the flowers. They’re all from her garden. People don’t really do that much here as compared to NZ I find. Nana could always pull together a boquet from her garden. Mum took a whole bunch to someone the day before too. I want that when I grow up, a beautiful garden. BTW Mum, the newspaper made my arm all black so when I got home I looked really skiddy. How cute is she?! Love you. Keri got to meet Mum first time. Think we might adopt her. It was so clear out across the Lake when I got home. I could see across to Rochester and it looked bright. So cool to see another country.  Heaps of Kiters on the South side of the island. I tried it once. Camped on the beach too. Hope you have an awesome day!

In a world where you can be anything, be yourself.

Wowza, do I ever feel rested. It’s amazing what a vacation home to parents and heaps of sleep does for your soul & creativity. I’m ready to go back to the city today. Look at this cute face. Look again. My first recital at 5, I was a fluffy cloud. Keri is coming to visit Mum today and meet her for the first time. BFF meets Mama. I’m curious as to what she will say, usually people say we are quite alike. Mum is funny. He loves me. He loves me not. What does a flower know anyways? Heading back to the city later today. Caught up on emails & work while I’ve been home. So lovely. Ready to take on the world again! Tomorrow I’m going to Katy Perry! Woo hoo.

What is the use of a book, w/out pictures or conversations?

Reach out & touch me. So ncie in the park today. Spent heaps of time here as a kid, highschool too. Fed the ducks. Man they were hungry. Some came right up on the rocks scared the jeepers outta me. Jeepers creepers. Met this guy. Don’t get too close. He bites. Rarrrrrrrrr! Chantelle and I have been coming here together for a really long time. No need to know actually how long, ages. Hi to Chantelle’s Mum [waves at computer]! They did Zumba yesterday. So cute. This wall faces a skatepark, used to be a swimming pool. Heaps of kids skatin’. Went on a long path, Wonderland Walk. Was lovely except I rekcon I got a few mozzy bites. See that butterfly. Flutter by, so pretty. Title is from Alice in Wonderland in case you didn’t know. Feel like a kid playing in the park so nice. Someone lost their balloons. Not me! Camera if you’re curious is Olympus XZ-1. It’s awesome & best cam I’ve used yet. Engadget review about it here. Garden time.
