vacation hilarity

more vacay pics... this time, more entertaining... i promise



you'll notice that the Jersey Shore has extended over to the Dominican... see Pauly D's Spanish doppelganger in the background.



some guys don't like to be humped unknowingly.



on the otherhand, some do.



careful, they'll flip it on ya tho



pool aerobics... pretty standard resort stuff...



but even this guy is confused about the instructors pants!



MY EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



please direct your eyes towards the deepest v neck known to man. i saw this gentleman's nipples, without my consent. excuse me, this is eye rape! no means no!



i...... don't....... know



yes, this happened.



someone's speedo needed to dry, so they borrowed their mom's bikini bottom.



i can relate to this woman. i always forget to pack essential things when i go on vacation... sometimes i'll leave my hairbrush at home... toothbrush... but never, ever, have i forgotten my ass.

beach bums

i'm back! vacay pt 1

so... i'm back and without a bangin' tan. i have one, but it's hardly respectable. damn you rain & clouds!!!!!!!!!!!

all in all, a good vacay with great people. lets explore in pictures... pt 1!



first night... watching tv with my towel swan. this is what goes on when you have your own room and are not a vacation slut :)



dress twins!



girls night out... off to Coco Bongo. how did the world's worst club provide the world's best fun?!?



one of many annoying people @ CB. i will provide more club take outs in another entry ;)



1 of the only 2 days of sun... sigh. attempting to tan! i said attempt...





stay tuned for more updates... gotta go to my first of two japanese all you can eat meals today... O_o

yay!

see u in a week!

don't worry bf... i will be back soon & will miss u!

oh and before i forget...

1 day!!!

4 days....

6 days!

beach bum!

in just over a week, i will be frolicking on a beach. i'm going down to the DR for a friend's wedding and some much needed vitamin D.

now i already have 20+ bikinis/swimsuits, but the hoarder in me says i need more. this is where the SoCal brand Tavik comes in. let me tell you, these swimsuits are hot! i picked up a few (see below!) and i am suuuuper excited to wear them!

the monokinis are never the most tan-line friendly, but what can you do... the Bobby/Bret bikini at the bottom is cool too... it's got an acid wash/distressed denim look!

i'll be counting down the days.... 7 to go!

i'm baaaaaaaaack!

my office is too cold to update properly (i wish i was wearing my mittens) but... i'm back, burned and bummed. i miss the beach! above... the view from our balcony. see why i miss it?

anyways... a proper post eventually... but not today ;)

bye! byebyebyebyebyebyebyebye

goodbye minus 92384789374 temperatures and hello jamaica...

... more importantly,

HELLO TAN!

see you in a week ;)

Aruba, Jamaica... oooh

... ok just Jamaica. i just wanted to incorporate the Beach Boys in it... :P

i'll be here in just over a week for a VERY well deserved vacation... my phone will be off and my e-mails will pile up in a violent way...

right melissa? :)

MIA Day 2

day 2 got up to a slightly slower start since we went out the night before... today was our girly shopping day. Lincoln Rd was our target... i bought some secrets at Vickys... and some sweet nuts. yes, thats what i said. candy coated almonds, get your mind outta the gutter! SwissMaker, the best nuts i've ever had! ;) (oh yeah... and best pretzel too :P)



i was having Red Bull withdrawl and almost wanted to breakdown and buy one, but the girls convinced me not to. strolling down Collins, i spotted Rockstar giving out free drinks... so i thought why not give the poor man's RB a try. bleh, diet. bleh, not Red Bull. moving on...



i have never seen so much silicone in one place in my life. South Beach has to be the biggest plastic surgery hub EVER. even the mannequins sized up...



outside for lunch on Lincoln Rd. i made the grave error of having one drink with my food. i never drink in the daytime because of the fallout. i think i fell in love with our 40+ long haired italian waiter. luckily he made fun of me about ordering "old people's" pasta and left me feeling slighted. ha :S





Shav and i in the club... i think the look on my face is a result of me dying a little inside from the overload of 90's hip hop. i felt like i was in Toronto haha. anyways, good preformances that night from Wale and Melanie Fiona



P and i after our night at the Delano

stay tuned for Day 3 + 4 soon ;)

MIA Day 1

4 days in MIA with the P and Shav...





we stayed at a lovely hotel called the Shore Club



in hotels i normally stay at, i'm used to extras you can buy, such as... water, little alcohol bottles... maybe some pistachios. i was always told not to touch them. but when i looked at what this place had to offer....



panties? dresses? tees? shorts... bikinis... practically a whole wardrobe was at your fingertips! amazing. no pricetags aka don't touch!



you will notice 2 interesting things in this picture at the beach. 1) the bizarre woman sauntering across the sand in the turquoise bikini... she seemed to have a... problem. shavonne named her "Amy", as in "Winehouse". and 2) a woman who managed to be whiter than me at the beach. thanks!!!!!!!!!!







caveat to anyone that travels with me... this is what happens to my luggage almost INSTANTLY. it explodes. i don't know why. maybe i'm a little... messy? but there is a clear distiction between messy and dirty. i am not the latter!




our toes on the first night out (didn't really get many pictures!). not the most glam picture, however, when you have been stuck in Canada Goose jackets for 3 months, getting some sandals on feels fantastic!

Guess who's back?

sigh. glad to be home, but sad to be away from miami.

had a great trip with the girls, P & Shav (or as the guy yelled from his car... "Pocahontas", "Thick, In All the Right Places" and "She's White, but Allllll Right"... classy?"

better update when i'm more settled in ;) bye for now!
