Habits
All of a sudden, I’m drowning in a pool of inspiration and I can’t seem to even organize my thoughts anymore. One thing that I have been thinking about is habits. Good ones, bad ones and now that I’m putting it into words, it’s beyond control.
(Intermission: It just hailed in Copenhagen.) I used to have a good habit of writing a lot. When I was younger, everything went into my little pink...

On independence, confidence and romance.
I haven’t posted in a long time, partially due to the fact that I started blogging about my Finnish adventures on Cee In Helsinki this summer. It was a truly memorable and important summer to me… and I seriously think that I am still experiencing the post-internship withdrawal effects.
I don’t know why it took me so long to start blogging again on this account - maybe it’s...

Turning point?
I don’t know if it was all the reminiscing on Friday, the talk with JY or if it was the beer, but something came over me and made me reach out to you. It’s been a year and obviously, I was still attached to the faint idea of us (or whatever it was) - I hadn’t let go.
Truthfully, I was bitter up until our chat tonight. Everything subsided when we started talking like we used to,...

Everyone's insecure/furious/grumpy sometimes,...
All of a sudden, I just feel so low, as if something just ran head-first into my stomach with no mercy. It’s just a temporary state, but I guess when you have these moments multiple times within a stretch of time, it’s not so temporary.
What is most frustrating is that things are going well, and I really have no reason to justify this negativity. So now what? Summer is right around...
Oh Alexander...

I’m beginning to think that capping my commitments next year is going to pay off.
Inspiration in life.
I am so blessed to have such inspirational and amazing friends here with me. I just wanted to remind myself before I get caught up in my own whirlwind of BS again.
DJ.Yoo, one of the best people to work, live and jam with. This kid’s going places. J.Do, the most passionate, driven and talented designer that I know. HiroMay, one of the coolest “head-bitch-in-charge” kind of chick...
MIA no more!
Wow, I haven’t realized that I’ve been quite MIA from tumblr. I wanted to do a post on my experience in Tijuana over the break, but things have been hectic around here. Nonetheless, I’m proud to say that I’ve been caught up… with school work (mostly) and not extracurriculars for once. So where do I start?
Life’s been quite a roller coaster these days, ever...

Dear ladies,
While I was going through Nikki Desuaisdo’s blog, I found this quote that she extracted from an interview with Natalie Portman’s dad: One of my favorite words of advice from the interview was from her father where he said, “It may take her some time to find the right man, ‘because here she is, brilliantly intelligent and shockingly beautiful. The world is at her...
Lighten it up.
Okay, a little too bitter in the last two posts.
Good news? 1) I’m going home tomorrow! Home cooked meals, yes. 2) I get to see some of my favorite people when I get home! 3) Mexico in 3. Unreal. 4) I picked the French oral question I wanted… 5) AIESEC interview tomorrow 6) Queen’s Pub tonight 7) Maple Leafs Sports & Entertainment mock interview in March 8) Toronto Fashion...

VIRGO August 23 - September 22
THURSDAY FEB 18, 2010
Your “lucky in love” era of 2010 officially begins today, as the radiant Sun joins expansive Jupiter in your house of committed relationships. Open yourself up to the power of partnership, and be willing to be surprised. Out of fear and anxiousness, you’ve been intercepting someone’s desire to contribute to you. Hang up your superhero’s cape...

Pretty convinced I screwed this one up. Surprise.
I hate how this kind of thing can carry you so high… and just crash. What’s your deal?
It doesn’t help that I’m walking around campus like a bag of illness/disease/sniffles/phlegm/cough.
Attractive. I love it when my friends tell me, “You look really… tired today.” Thanks, I know I look like shit. These...
What my horoscope says
VIRGO August 23 - September 22
For the week of February 15 - February 21
Valentine’s Day has come and gone, but your romantic high note is yet to be sung. This Wednesday, the Sun grooves into Pisces, your sign of committed partnerships. It joins lucky Jupiter in this position, pointing to some seriously magical moments in the month ahead. If you’ve been on the fence about a lover, a sense of...
I love my girls and my housemates. Seriously, I’ve got so much love for them. I’m trying to figure out what I want. One more time, fine. But I’m not going back to that chasing game. First thing on my list: pass my exams.
I keep forgetting I have a French exam tomorrow. But indeed, I do… I am so not made for this.
Recap
Let’s just take it slow and see if this works out. If I don’t give up on this, you definitely shouldn’t. It only make sense. I’m hoping you’re not done because that’d just be disappointing.
I couldn’t help but think about M and I let myself down. It was inevitable though…

Little girl excitement.
I am SO stoked for the weekend, b. I could squeal but… the girl across the table would give me a dirty stare. Anyway, it’s going to be legit. Good breakfasts all around, Stooley’s & Rickards Red (duh), classic movies, lounging in bed, video games (ROCKBAND CHAMP!) and nothing else.
Notice the absence of any studying-related activity. And midterms start in 4 days…
People always say, “I’ve never felt this way before,” but I’ve always been convinced that it’s just a fabricated confession.
Things I want to do:
1. [Feb 10.10] Record a full song at a studio/ I’m not the greatest singer/vocalist but I would love to have the opportunity to do this. To perfect a song, to translate every ounce of passion and emotion into music and lyrics… and capture it forever.
2. [Feb 11.10] Fly a plane over the ocean. 3. [Feb 11.10] Work on an island resort with bonfires, crashing waves and of course, pretty...
Honestly, sometimes I forget that I’m not 17 anymore.
Reflecting
What’s up with my images?
Anyway, I feel like a lot of career opportunities are out there and it’s all up to me to take hold of them. I’m really blessed to have made a friend who aspires to take the same route as me. TEDx, AGO, Toronto Fashion Week, PR, Faulhaber, Women in Leadership… there is so much out there that I can grasp. Just have to put my mind to it.

More later. I have a lot to say but nothing’s coming out right and I have an essay and finance quiz to complete. Oh, and an AIESEC app due tomorrow.

An inspiring weekend: Queen's Entrepreneurs'...
The Queen’s Entrepreneurs’ Competition was an amazing event. Even though I was complaining about the work and the insanity the consumed my life last week, it was all worth it when everything fell into place this weekend.
First off, congratulations to Chris who won first place award with www.buildmylanyard.com - his passion, confidence and enthusiasm shone through and there was no...
What the next two weeks look like for me:

I’m glad mum’s home.
Even though she nags.
Finally, I don’t have to pack away the dishes or make my own breakfast.
WOOOOOOOOO!
:) I’m half way done, I need the team bios in now… phewwwww okay. And then I realized that I still have to do the signs too… Deadline’s on Monday for that one too. Oops.
F.
I’m going to need a HUGE pick-me-up-er...
Ready, set, and... pause.
This just came up while I was moping over several items (lost/unrecoverable files…) just a minute ago.
When are we ever ready to love? I mean, truly love. The heart usually takes off for a vacation after a relationship. In my opinion, this is true regardless of the length of the relationship, as well as the particular side the heart acted on - the damaging side, or the one being damaged. We...
Honest words
After talking with L today, I realized that it’s just simplicity and honesty that I want and more importantly, need. I don’t want to play games because it’s (quite) apparent how I feel. With the new year ahead and all the things I have to accomplish, I most definitely don’t have the time nor patience to play never-ending, stress-inducing games. I’m not wired to...

I can’t decipher your texts.
Or maybe I should stop trying to decipher in general because there’s probably nothing much to figure out.
Right? RIGHT.
Okay, I’m kind of ridiculous.

Oww, headache. Whyyyyy?
I had an incredible night in the t-dot… and I haven’t stopped smiling since. The CN Tower light show left me in awe and well, everything else too. So thanks! Brunny on Thursday night would be interesting. It’s just a matter of going or not… hmm.
This is so different - inspiring, to a certain extent. I still don’t know how it will ever work...
Don’t know, don’t care.
I do care, lol. Who am I kidding? This is horrible.
Hello, 2010. You're lookin' good.

don't mind me while I vomit out my thoughts.
I’ve been laying around, trying to collect my thoughts on this whole situation ever since I got home last night. I can’t seem to verbalize completely the range of emotions/thoughts that have been zipping through my mind. If there was one word to describe yesterday night, it’d be… comfort, ease, whatever synonyms there may be for just feeling eerily calm and content. It was...
Rise
Never let irrelevant situations and individuals get in your way to the top. I mean, don’t step over them. Play fair. Triumphs don’t make me feel good without hard work, I don’t know about you. Just find ways - fair ways - to get around these obstacles and assholes… and you’ll rise - you’ll get to your temporary destination. It’s all a cycle anyway, so...
Moping in my fuzzy pink socks.
You know those days when everything seems to be going wrong? It’s one of those days. 1) Marketing raped me hard, no big deal. Who gives the same final as last year… a case in three hours? Fuck you! 2) People are idiots/flops but I still love them at the end of the day. I’m just frustrated. 3) MIS memo didn’t go over so well. 4) MIS studying will not go over too well...
(V) random musings.
I wish I lived in Edmonton so I could go see Gabe Bondoc play : (
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Exam stress is killing me… so I channel it through tumblr. Good idea? Exam in eight hours. Hmm, if I run a simulation on the best possible number of hours to sleep before my exam in order to yield the highest average mark, maybe I’ll find out if it’s worth it to power through the night.
(Wow,...
I was just creeping on Facebook (ah, lack of studying happening… clearly.) and found the profile of this girl who is a year or two younger than me. I haven’t seen her since grade school and she looks so different - grown up, mature and well… I don’t know, it’s kind of weird. So, it makes me wonder, does this happen in reverse? Does anyone older than me look through...
Just out of curiosity, if I see him sometime this break, will all my anger, frustration, memories all come back in one wave? Well, that’s going to suck. Distractions, I need you now! Or at least after my finals…
