Road trip ha ha's

some hilights from our recent road trip...



this is the best shot i could get of this guy without falling out of the car. he is clearly a size small but somehow decided that wearing a size 3XL Dickies RED suit was a good idea. we caught this sexiness in a store that was inundated with Ed Hardy and Affliction. he was in the midst of buying those red Gourmet's to go with the hat and outfit. believe it or not, it gets worse too... some guy had the audacity to give him props on his style and ask where he bought the goods. really.



ok. i understand that "fags" is the British term for cigarettes. but your store is in Canada. Ottawa to be exact. Mags and FAGS? fail. your store name is a big gay fail.



it's hard to see from this picture, but this place is called "Brain Hunter". i think it's some kind of recruiting company... maybe on the lines of Monster? regardless, the name freaked me out. we passed by it a couple of times. i just invision a place where scary vampire zombies are inside and waiting for their shift to come find you and, well... suck out your brains?

My Girls, what?

i'm not really one for bootleg products. purses (i'm not saying i have enough dough for the real deal, either), cds (i still buy them to support the artist), dvds (On Demand!), so on and so forth. i am half chinese though and i am exposed to them pretty often haha...

i was at Pacific Mall with lissa yesterday and found this Married to the Mob jumpoff...



the proper "My Girls" MTTM tee. this was it's second coming... 4 colours. the first was the simple, yet classic, black & white version



the Pacific Mall "My Girls" tee. you'll notice the words have been umm... made more interesting?

"My girls wear BalenciagRa and smokeO mad maLijuana"

well, let me tell you. if i was into smokeo-ing, it would definitely be malijuana. do you know where i can get some?

Spring Sprint 2009!!!

i did it!!!!! :D

i am proud to say i was a part of the Toronto leg of the Spring Sprint. as you may or may not know, i am not a super athletic person, but this was a cause that means a lot to me and thousands of other Canadians so i had to do it. i raised about $800 for the fundraising portion and i believe the event raised over $200,000 on the whole. for anyone that gave me pledges, thank you from the bottom of my heart

22 cities are participating across Canada over the next couple of months. it is a 5km walk/jog/run and took place in Sunnybrook Park. i joined the team of Jim & Jen Anderson for the event and had the support of some of my best friends, lissa & the offshoot family. 27 degrees and sunny. what more could we ask for? :)



myself and the wonderful Jim Anderson



the Andersons getting interviewed



offshoot! :)





jim, me and melissa "running" haha





all good things come to an end. after a beautiful sunny day, there was a crazy wind storm and this tree came down in my complex. at least it wrecked a fence and not a house!

Road trip 2!

Seven;30 and i went on another fruitful roadtrip last week... lots of paper written and lots of McDonalds eaten (3 times in 2 days!)

we played some interesting car games...i bet you've never thought of new lyrics for Trick Daddy's "Nann" while racing other rentals on the 401!

the hilight had to be when we had 2.5 hours to kill while we were inbetween appointments in Ottawa. we crossed the Quebec border and played some penny slots... i hit 77777 and thought i won a million dollars... when in reality, i only won $4. but thats pretty big when you consider that we were betting a penny!

anyways...



Seven behind the wheel of our rental... only the best for us... a Nissan Altima! :S



i somehow managed to mess up the rental... right away (5 mins)? i somehow always manage to make everywhere i go messy. my desk, hotel rooms... and now cars. this was only the beginning of the trip. there was food, garbage, receipts, cds and clothes everywhere by the end.



meet Jimmy... the chihuahua puppy at Rockit that decided my sample bag was a great place to roll around. if his owner wasn't keeping such a close eye, i woulda zipped him up in that duffle and brought him home! :)

Hellooo Officer

i was driving to work this morning and was exiting on the Dufferin exit ramp and noticed a trap and a cop pulling over people...

he walked over in my direction and raised his hand for me to stop. i didn't have anything to worry about, so i wasn't concerned... he peered into my car at me and looked to see if i was wearing my seatbelt. i was almost pulled over because my seatbelt was kinda blending in with my black leather jacket. but he saw that, then waved me off to go

... i should have undone the belt, that cop was fine.

the end!

Spring Sprint!

it's true. i'm going to participate in physical activity... and for a great cause!

i'm doing a 5K run (ahem, walk) in the Spring Sprint in support for those affected by brain tumours. 55,000 Canadians are affected right now and 10,000 more will be diagnosed this year...

lissa and the Offshoot team are gonna join me....

...are you?

and if you can't make it, feel free to help me reach my new fundraising goal of $1000. i'm almost there! you can make a secure online donation with your credit card here:
