Okay, first off I am going to just take a second to say how awesome the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ new single “Dani California” is…. I am listening to it right now. LOVE IT! Do you love it, too?
Second, I have a new “signature” nail polish. It’s called California Coral. I actually feel happy just looking at my nails. Haha, okay, I’ll admit that sounds kinda insanely silly, but it’s the truth. Do you have a signature nail polish or perfume or hairstyle?
Hey, notice a theme? California!
I love the whole idea of a laid-back, beachy California lifestyle—it’s so appealing!
Okay… now that that little random tidbit is out of the way, why don’t I actually tell you about my life?
Early last week one of my best friends came in from out of town, and it was sooo great to see her! She hadn’t seen my new place yet, so I was stoked to show her around and feel all hostess-y.
After that we had a Toronto appreciation day and toured around all the best shopping areas like Queen West and Yorkville. She is from London, Ont., and apparently they do not have H&M, so needless to say we spent a long time there. It is so awesome to find cute stuff at low prices.
We also had a run-in with a gorilla (no joke, pics to prove it) and each got a manicure. It was a really fun day and it’s always nice to catch up with my friends.
Then I worked most of the week, so by Friday I wanted to have fun, so I went to a party. On Saturday I went to a student fashion show to raise money for Free the Children, which was also great, but Saturday night didn’t end so well because my friend accidentally ran a red light (which was actually yellow) and the cops gave her a ticket. It was her first, and probably her last, because she is the most responsible girl I know. It was too bad, but hey, it happens.
As for right now, I am about to watch So You Think You Can Dance, which is my favourite reality show. I have been dancing since I was four, so it is in my blood.
I am hoping to go to the beach this weekend because the weather is supposed to be great, so I’ll let you know how that goes.
Speak to you all later!
