RED & BLUE
8 comments
I normally don’t like these types of shoes simply because their fit SUCKS, they always slip off and aren’t the comfortable alternative they were meant for. But these! THESE, are amazing, they are comfortable, and super cute. They come in a variety of colors but I decided on red and blue. I wanted black too but it was sold out in no time. These are from GAP and since I get discounts there, two pairs isn’t that bad :D
I also got these boots (?) on sale from Zara, they are so cuteee and comfortable, they look slouchy and lazy which is the words you would find if you looked me up on wikipedia, I don’t have a wikipedia page but I can’t imagine myself being in the dictionary, i’m arrogant but not delusional.
i’m going to skip off and sing “diamonds are a girl’s best friend” now, shoes are pretty VIP in my book too. ;)
Mountain? climbing? (foreign words to me)

On Tuesday, I did something called The Grouse Grind and is apparently termed “nature’s stair master“. I HAVE DONE THE STAIR MASTER BEFORE and it’s not like that at all, for one thing, you don’t try to hang on to dear life throughout the trip.
I have tons of sneakers, but actual sneakers for stuff like this? Zero pairs, lol…! this is the only pair I thought would work, Nike 6.0 for children, because i have tiny feet. They are actually skating shoes, so very thick and quite comfortable and i thought if i fall, the padding might help.
I’ve done this trail once before, in grade 9 or 10 so that was 6 or 7 years ago. I almost died that time, and I almost died this time.
At first, it was okay, not smooth sailing, but it was okay. But after 15 minutes, I started with the “are we there yet..” (to give you an idea, it took me 2 hours to get to the top). So i’m taking a lot of breaks in between, this is actually a pretty bad idea since I loose all will to go on. And did I mention I have a fear of going down stuff, e.g. stairs, hills, ridiculous trails like this. So basically I was stuck, I can’t really quit half way because the only way to go is UP.
There are some man built steps but I used my hands and arms to good use. I was literally ‘climbing’.
As we headed to the top, the number of mosquitoes also increased. when I still had energy, I attempted to swat them away, but later on, sure, go in my mouth, attack my arms, I don’t really care..(sorry that was gross). Yeahhh, no matter what. I still made it to the top.
One thing really helped me to get through all of this was a compilation of music I downloaded to help me study.
It’s called MUSIC FOR WINNERS, and it really is more appropriate for stuff like this.. (I didn’t make it, someone else did, but i am willing to share). Here’s the track list:
01 Montage (Team America World Police)
02 Gonna Fly Now (Rocky)
03 Your the Best Around (Karate Kid)
04 Fight To Survive (Bloodsport)
05 Break The Ice (Rad)
06 Push it to the limit (Scarface)
07 Eye of the Tiger (Rocky III)
08 Thunder In Your Heart (Rad)
09 Higher and Higher (Wet Hot American Summer)
10 Change (Vision Quest)
11 The Touch (Transformers)
12 Now You’re A Man (Orgazmo)
13 Take It Higher (Over the Top)
14 The Final Countdown
15 Turn Me Loose
16 Never Surrender (Kickboxer)
17 Winner Takes It All (Over the Top)
18 Danger Zone (Top Gun)
19 Far From Over (Staying Alive)
20 The Moment Of Truth (Karate Kid)
LOL, good job and thank you
Felt like I was making my own montage.
But, all in all I made it to the top!!! Took two whole hours, but I made it. :D :D
My friends want to go again next week, ehhhh…? maybe.
(the first pic makes me look like I have weird legs and I don’t shave, not TRUE ON ALL ACCOUNTS! lol…)
how to celebrate?

Delphic – Counterpoint
(this image took five layers to make, goes to show you how important this is to me)]
so, something AMAZING happened, AMAZING. i’ve kept this under wraps for so long, well not that long, like a week, but if you’re a blabber mouth like me it is a LONG TIME. It’s actually not a big deal, but at the same time, I feel so lucky and that I’ve been handed the key to something important.
I don’t really want to say what it is.. yet. Because I’m scared it’ll go away if I say it out loud.
But, I want to thank the internet for participating in one of the most anticipated days in my whole life. and I want to thank the parties involved for giving me this chance. But, at this moment, I am going to be secretive about it.
When I was thinking of what to write in this point, this song immediately came to mind as well as OK GO’s THIS SHALL PASS (this video went viral so I think you probably have seen it). So I thought Delphic might be the better choice.
I will not let the people that gave me this chance down, I’m extremely grateful. Thank you.
So basically, what I want to say is, do what you want to do, don’t let your ‘dream’ be something that ties you down, let it be something that frees you.
P.S. ok, this sounds super epic, and if I actually told you what it is it probably isn’t as poignant as I’m making it, but it’s amazing to me
P.P.S. i know i make a lot of posts about vodka, i swear im not an alcoholic, i just really like the taste *whistles innocently* ;)
P.P.P.S. this post was written a day ago, don’t want to crowd the entries too much.
VODKA infused
8 commentsI hung out with my friend Tim, and he taught me something new!
Vodka infused gummy candies, be sure to card those that look younger than the minimum drinking age!
step 1: put the desired amount of gummy candies in a large bowl (we have chosen bears, worms and tarantulas!)
step 2: pour in vodka, enough to cover the candies
step 3: stir…!
step 4: wrap the bowl up with plastic wrap, keep in fridge for at least 5 days, after you’ll have candy that’s bloated with vodka (after having sucked away all surrounding alcohol)! Apparently, it’s better if you could keep it in the fridge longer. I haven’t tried it myself, but the results are supposedly great!
easy and fun! :D
edit: seems like everyone really likes this post, good to read, but but but! FYI: i have NOT tried this, I did it at my friends house and he’s not someone you can easily catch on the phone or via text so i dont know how it went. He heard it from some people so, i’m gonna say these ‘some people’ are legit.
i will try it soon.
i have a one liter bottle of Lemon flavored goose ready to pwn, so, yeah will blog about it when I do :D
HARD MIX
5 comments( hard mix = the gradient option used in photoshop CS, alas i had no other titles…)
i met my hard-to-reach friend Tim today, we went to Granville Island, which is close by his house. He tells me that he goes there often, damn, it’s a nice to be, i’d like to visit often too. Though the fruits market there is $25 a box of cherries, and yes it’s actually a BOX not a case!!! O__O
As you can see, despite the fact that its July, I am wearing long pants and a light jacket. Although it’s not cold, the moment you aren’t in the sun, going to be grabbing for that Jacket. My friend decided it was going to be hot and decided to wear shorts, he was at a disadvantage at times, while at other times i was forced to carry my jacket. ahhahaha, the weather blows. But at least it was sunny.
A perfect ending to a good Day.

7 commentswhy is gas so expensive?
i always pay with credit card, so this $20.00 exactly was pretty hard to obtain, props to me. or i always try to get $19.88 (birth year).
as you can see i only get a little bit of gas, in case the price goes down, or we grab our passports and get gas in the states. I know, I do drive to another country to fill-up sometimes, as well as doing shopping. Canad–ian gas is mostly tax, and they just recently raised taxes on eating out and even some basic necessities, AND then they use all the tax money to convince us that taxing is good for us. FXXK the government!!!
Just playing with some coloring effects here…
these effects are super easy to obtain, check out this simple program by Pentacom that you can download! It imitates Toy camera effects among many many many others! highly recommended by me, and you should always do what I say. ;)
