Update!!

This is going to come out like rapid fire because I am dead tired from school.

I am living in Mississauga. I am going to makeup school (it's AWESOME). I am quite content.

Waking up between 6 and 7 each morning is .. dare I say it... not that bad. Mostly because school is amazing. Each day is challenging and fun. I wish I could go for the rest of my life lol. I love working on different faces and getting the chance to learn all these new cool things!

But what I really wanted to touch on today was how grateful I am for my friends. As I was driving home today (hour and forty minutes instead of the usual hour) I was thinking how lucky I am to have such great friends. They are there for me from.. random outings, late night/early morning calls and texts, believing in me, loving me even though I am the queen of sarcasm and much, much more.

I wish I could articulate this better.. but my brain is so fried lol.

So, I just want to say thank you to my wonderful friends. Thank you for your patience, advice and overwhelming support. Without you guys I would be even more cynical and ranty (if that's at all possible! lol) Love you!

MAN GLAZE!!

My Man Glaze order came in today!

After I was bitching to my parents this morning that my dad painted over our address. Yeah, he did that. I have had this conversation with them before. How will the postal people where to deliver things if we have no address? My dad says that they would just know. ... Yeah. Last year AJYJ (HAHA..) sent me something and it was sent back to him because my address DNE. I didn't want my polish to get sent back!

I was worried since they said it would take about 4 days to get here, and I ordered it over a week ago. But then a few hours after my whining.. my package came!

I didn't even bother taking off my old nail polish, I just painted right over it. It goes on a sparkly black (which is cool) but in less than a minute, it turns into a flat matte colour. It dries very quickly. SO COOL!!



I still haven't mastered my camera, which is broken and held together with tape. Time for a new one!

Update!

Perhaps I should have wrote this earlier. I kept putting it off, because that's my style. I was all over the place emotionally about how I felt about it. First I was excited, then stressed, then regretful, now... sort of stressed and excited at once.

So I'm going back to school, just not University. On September 14th I will be starting a 14 week course at Complexions in Toronto. =) The course is called the Essential Makeup Artist. I will be learning fashion makeup, character makeup, a bit of hair, and a bit of prothetics. I'm really excited to start!
Which means, I am moving to Toronto! I'll be living with my sister, and when I can, crash at Ev's (thanks lady).

Big news huh?

I guess that's all I really want to say about that for now.

----

I went to the states yesterday!

.. Went shopping..

I didn't go crazy! Just a few dresses and stuff.. Forever 21 in the US is so much better than the Canadian one. I find things I actually like! And they're in my size!


CUUUUTE headband that I wanted in every colour, but settled for a grey


My favourite band of all time, weird to see it at F21...


Gorgeous silk sheath with bows in the back! It really needs to be ironed!


Strapless dress with padding in the boob area so you don't have to wear a bra!


Dress I'll be wearing to my brother's wedding!

Awesome finds!

One Word.

Noticing a pattern? When I feel crappy (physically/emotionally) and I want to post, I just do these.. survey things. I had a good day yesterday (got an awesome tattoo) that turned into a bad day (dad issues). Now I just feel like shit. I think my mom is to blame t0o, because she sort of provoked it all (probably not intentionally but she should have known that my dad would not have supported the idea). I don't mean to be vague. I just don't know if I want to get into it all yet.

30 Day Shred (Day 10)

This morning I finished day 10 of the shred! So what if I'm a few days behind? I'm on a sort of vacay and I'm not at home!

So what are the results?

I'm still huffing and puffing and struggling, especially with the first circuit (push ups + squat and press and jumping jacks + jump rope). But after I get started, I'm fine. The workout itself is still very challenging so I'm not sure if I should stick with level one, or move on to level two.

I am seeing some changes in my body. My tummy is definitely flatter (I've been telling people that instead of looking 5 months pregnant, I look 6 weeks pregnant! LOL) and there is a bump in my arm!! Eva saw it! She's a witness!

I will probably take tomorrow off because my left ankle is hurting and I'm limping around. I need to get an adjustment or something. When I rotate my ankle, it cracks and feels crunchy, not good.

Still haven't decided if I will go another 10 days with level one or move to level two, either way, update will come at day 20!

My arm. I walked into the metal.. thing that is on the door frame that the lock.. locks into. Yeah. Its flat, it sticks out and is sharp. My arm scraaaaaaaped across that as I tried to get through the doorway which was open a crack (I was too lazy to open the door all the way. Haha.) Serves me right I guess? I pulled a Peter Griffin.
SSSSSSSTTTTT. AHHHHHHHHHH.

Automated Voicemail

Can anyone be a morning person? I HATE 6 or 7am start times. HATE THEM. I can never fall asleep til about 1 or 2 or even 3am and I am left with 2-4 hours of sleep.

I hate mornings!

I got off work at about 12:30, and I check my phone, 4 missed calls and 3 voicemails. Seems that someone has been trying to get a hold of me. I check the numbers, its a 1-888 number. I check the voicemails and its an automated message from "Contact services regarding my outstanding Rogers account". I've heard from them before but thought it must have been a mistake because my bill is always paid on time (thanks mom). This was the first time that they called three times in a row, before that it was a random call maybe once every two weeks, and it would stop for about a month.

When I got home I called the number back and asked the ..phone.. person what it was regarding. Here's the conversation:

Me - I just received three automated messages. Something about my "OUTSTANDING Rogers account?"
Lady - Reference number?
M - I don't have one. It was an automated message saying I need to contact you immediately.
L - I need your primary phone number and full name.
M - *gives it
L - This is your number?
M - Yup.
L - What's your name again?
M - ... Rose.
L - Who is Marco _______?
M - No idea.
L - Well he put this as his primary number.
M - That's not me.
L - You sure you don't know him?
M - Um. Yeah.
L - How long have you had this number?
M - Over a year and a half. What kind of company is this? Collections?
L - Why did he put your number?
M - How should I know? If I had an outstanding Rogers account, you wouldn't be able to call me on it.
L - And you don't know him?
M - I don't want to receive any more calls.

*Click*

Annoying. She was giving me attitude the entire time. It made no sense, if I owed Rogers a whole bunch of money, they would cut my phone off! This is not the first time I have gotten calls for this Marco.

I'm changing my number soon.

I called Rogers today and after checking out some phones.. will probably renew my contract with a pretty good plan. You have to say you're going to leave them before they give you the goods. Ain't that always the way?


I like this one, but knowing my luck it probably won't be in the store for me to test. It's also kind of pricey... *Sigh, I keep finding more and more things I need before September.

30 Day Shred

In my effort to get in shape and to stop being a lazy ass, I bought the Skinny Bitch Fitness DVD last month.



Prior to that, I had never, ever worked out. It was a place to start! So 6 weeks into it, I'm still breaking a sweat but not feeling sore like I did in the beginning. I'm also not seeing much of a difference in my body so.... I looked into Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred.



Today is day one! I'd have to say it's pretty challenging for someone like me, a total beginner! My legs were burning, my arms were burning, I was huffing and puffing and I wanted to quit! But, I stuck with it!

I plan on following the workout for the whole 30 days (minus the days that I work a full shift counting crap and just come home and pass out) and will update at the 10 day, 20 day and finally, the 30 day mark!

I just watched the Level 2 and.. it's intimidating lol.

Wish me luck! =)
