Sneaky brim

Today I had to buy this toque. It is the best toque ever, and it is from Lululemon. It is now officially my first thing from Lulu. I bought black though, only because I know I am going to need to wear it everyday. It is so warm, and with the “sneaky brim” looks much better than a regular toque. Also I had to buy another ball of yarn for my scarf (3 balls so far)…but it is coming along. Now that the snow is here, I have to get prepared.



Ready and loaded!

WOO!…..except I can’t load the bloody thing. I don’t know if it is a problem with the camera or with me, but I have wasted 4 rolls of film trying to load it. So frustrating……and it is taking all my effort not to try another roll…..but I am going to take it to the photography teacher at school tomorrow. I have waited this long I guess I can wait one more day…..grrrrr.

Any thoughts or ideas?….It is the Diana+

I really wish this weekend didn’t have to end. It was so hard to come back to Kelowna after 4 wonderful days, and 4 even better nights. Now I am back to doing what feels like a million school projects…..but the good news is in just over a month now I will be done for the Holidays!!…..Really can’t wait….



It’s one of these nights

I am really not prepared for winter to come yet. Haha I bought some knitting needles the other day though, seems like a good winter pass time…although maybe I should try and make something a little more exciting than another scarf.

Front and Co. is one of my favourite shops in Vancouver. I love how they have such a wide variety of clothing there, and I always find things I want. Living in Kelowna I sometimes dream of it…haha sad I know….but I am going to get to make a trip there this Saturday….WOO!! Jonathan and Olivia is another one of my favourites although it is pretty expensive. They do have some pretty awesome sample sales though! Miss Coquette is an awesome store and is owned by my friend Leanne Dunic. She just opened a new store as well called Tenth and Proper, hopefully I can check it out while I am in Van.

These birds are so beautiful in real life. They fly all over campus, and this girl and I were talking today about how much we love them. I am determined to get a good shot of one when my camera comes! They are the most awesome colors and I really love their long, distinct tails.

Classes are cancelled

Woo woop!….The whole school is power-less….why couldn’t this have happened last week when I was dying from white wine poisoning!  Today Kassi and I find out if we get the apartment we looked at on Friday….fingers crossed.  And I am still waiting for my fun camera to get here.  Hopefully it will come before I go to Vancouver next weekend.  So this is the first time in like 6 years that I don’t have a job…and it is enjoyable…but I am soo used to having all this extra money for fun and for shopping.  It is amazing how fast it goes when nothing is coming back in, and I am not the kind of person who can live the poor student lifestyle.  Especially since my passion for shopping has only gotten stronger, which is funny because I never really used to be like that.  So as nice as it is not to work, and to have tons of time for school….I think I am going to have to get a job in January.  With school and work it should be pretty hectic….but it is better than being bored!



FOOD!

Today I spent about 6 hours entering everything I ate or drank over a 14 day period into a food analysis program. OMG it was one of the most tedious things I have ever done. Worst part is I would have gotten nearly as close results had I just recorded for about 4 days…OY!  But what I really don’t know is how a class called “healthy lifestyles” can require you to sit on your ass and do the same repetitive, boring thing for 6 hours??  Ah well, gotta love school.
