Bellini-induced Brain Freeze

As you can probably tell from my template I'm a huge Tokidoki nut. Funny thing is I probably would not have even heard about him if it weren't for all the knockoff LeSportsac bags I came across in the Philippines. I'm not a big LeSportsac fan but when I saw the Tokidoki prints I immediately fell in love with them. They are the cutest thing to enter my world since Hello Kitty. Mozzarella is one of my favorites, as is Bastardino, Donutella, Ninja dog, Unicorno....of course to fuel the addiction even further Simone Legno has been pumping out Tokidoki for Hello Kitty for a few years running now. Thank goodness the brand is somewhat hard to come by here in Calgary or else I'd probably go berserk. Whenever I go to the US I make sure to hit up a Macy's and they've usually been a blessing for finding a shirt or two. Thanks to my brother I've learned I can usually find a few pieces at Urban, and I've bought some also at Winners and Smashing Cosmetica. I rece...

So because I've been putting it off forever I finally got my driver's license in November 2008. At the tender young age of "I'm not telling you." I have been driving for less than 2 years. How many cars have I had? Two. I bought my first car on May 12, 2009. Although she wasn't the color I was hoping for we were a match made in nirvana. I named her Jetta James because, well, you know..."at last." She had a sunroof, heated seats, heated mirrors, all wonderful things I have decided I cannot live without. New Year's day of this year her and I, along with my siblings as my passengers, got t-boned by a gentleman running a red light. The fact that he took full responsibility and that none of us were hurt were very little consolation to my pride. My precious Jetta James took a bullet for me and now her and I could roll no longer. My very first lesson in insurance matters, too. If it was not my fault, why was I the one being inconvenienced? I ha...

Every once in a while I take a look at my lonely little blog (it's my homepage whenever I open my browser) and wonder how I could neglect her for oh so long. I don't buy into New Year's resolutions. Resolutions can be made on any of the other 364 days. But I sure do miss writing. Now that I'm here, though, I'm not sure what I want to write about. An update on my last post: My favorite (as I took to calling him) told me at the very last minute that he was leaving to work in another city. I had just come back from Hawaii when he decided to tell me this. Fast forward a month later and a guy I was planning a date with found a girlfriend while I was away in Mexico. Something tells me my love life suffers when I travel, hehe. Despite this, I still haven't gotten my Puerto Rico on. I still haven't been to Cuba. I still haven't been to Spain, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Morocco, Argentina, Brazil... I'm in big trouble. A couple of months ago I had my...
