       Took a long relaxing stroll around the park today with Veronica (follow her blog at http://www.fabricrefined.blogspot.com/). The sun was beaming at us. But, it was not too bad because I'm pleased with it did to my skin. I look lightly toasted? haha. We were both up so late last night making slight adjustments to our blog and with that we woke up later than expected. We will definitely make a visit to the Distillery District and other historic areas next time. So instead of heading downtown late in the afternoon, we just decided to make a visit to a park nearby. With such beautiful weather, a camera, we decided to fool around a little. And heck, it was fun in the sun haha. This blog post is definitely a first. 

       On another note, lately I've been trying to think of what I want to do this summer and I came too a conclusion. There are numerous amount of places that I want to visit and so many things I want to do this summer in Toronto. Personally, I think this summer of 2010 definitely equals bigger and better plans than EVER. Last year was ridiculous, so this year I'm gonna make it better (What Monday to Friday 8:00AM - 4:30PM full-time job you say?) So exciting. Besides L.A, hmmm... Well first off, I heard about O Noir back when first year just began and it struck my curiosity. I researched the restaurant a little bit back then and I immediately thought to myself: "I'm definitely going to make reservations there one day". It' sounds so awesome! It's basically a completely different experience (Yes, I bought it right away - If you know me... I'm always down for a new adventure), not just any experience, but a completely different dining experience. There is absolutely no lighting in the restaurant (this includes no flashlights, no watches, NADA). To read more about this dining adventure click here: http://www.onoir.com/MTL/en/frames.htm. Also, for some reason, I'd like to visit all of the museums I visited when I was younger in Toronto too. The Bata Shoe Musuem, The ROM, The AGO. I sound like such a tourist in my own city! I definitely have to somehow plan a trip to Sauble Beach this year too. Fishing on a boat is a must! My brain is kindof fried at this point, I'm back in Hamilton with a major headache. Oh well, I'll continue my list later.

"Morning Flowers"

Wow. FashionGoneRouge, you never fail to impress me with your editorial postings. Honestly, I could spend countless hours browsing in awe. This "Morning Flowers" editorial by Vogue is truly amazing. This editorial is such an amazing piece of art. The lighting and composition gives off such a warm feeling. Not to mention, the rosy-neutral overall hues are a definite plus in my taste. Exquisitely intriguing.

I am finally back in Markham. Home sweet home. Today, I just cleaned the entire house from the time I woke up until 7PM. I am so exhausted but my mom will be back from the airport soon. I hope it will make her happy coming home to a clean house. I think this entire weekend will be spent with the fam more or less.

Definitely looking forward to Sunday. Finally going to purchase my long awaited flight ticket to Los Angeles. YESSSSSS! @#%#^@ SUPER STOKED. I can't express how insanely excited I am for this trip, especially since it's with one of my best girl friends. Can you say... adventure time? Toronto girls strolling around the streets of Hollywood,  Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, downtown L.A & etc. Can't forget about the beaches! VENICE VENICE VENICE... (and I'll do some more researching on other beaches that's worth a visit). Hopefully I can purchase my SLR in time for this trip so I can snap some nice shots :) After reading so many reviews and getting opinions from people with experience, I've decided on the Canon T1i since I'm just starting out. Nonetheless, it's extremely exciting. Finally my own SLR :D I swear I'm not going to be able to put my hands down when I get it haha
