RIP Topaz

This Tuesday I experienced a small tragedy. My car was killed.
I was driving home from work. There was a variety store on the corner. Two cars up from me, the driver decided last minute to turn into the parking lot of said store. He stopped fairly quickly, as did the van [...]

“Morning” Workouts and Different Breakfast Routes

I love working out in the morning. It is SO nice to get it out of the way and to feel refreshed and energized for the day. By morning though… I mean like 11. I’m not some crazy who’s able to wake up at 5 in the morning, drag myself out of bed and be [...]

Another Weekend

  Anyone else want to join me in forming a mass battle against technology? Alright I do love it but I swear technology is going to be my ride right into the loony bin. Just when you think you’ve got it all worked out, ten more problems pop up. I’m having network issues now. Dratted [...]

Sabra Rules

Yesterday I mentioned that I baked up some kabocha squash. This one had been sitting in my cupboard for a little while because I had experienced a bit of squash overkill (I know, shocking right? Is that even possible?) so I took a break from it. A break as in like a week but still. [...]

I used Barbara’s Shredded Oats Cereal, a frozen banana and almond milk. Perfection. This was so good I wanted to make another bowl. I didn’t, but I wanted to. I ate something else instead [...]

Case of the Disappearing Post

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
I just deleted a nearly completed and somewhat lengthy (and quite lovely in my opinion!) unsaved post by accidentally hitting some hot key shortcut that closed it. WHYYYY? You know, I’ve done this before and told myself to ALWAYS save drafts so as to avoid this situation once again and yet clearly I learned nothing [...]

Time Warp

I’ve done a whole lot of cleaning and old junk purging this holiday. I love doing a giant clean, it’s so refreshing to get rid of all kinds of old and useless stuff and to finally have a neat and tidy room. Today I cleaned out all of my bathroom stuff too, which was [...]

Only One More Sleep

Well here it is, Christmas Eve. First and foremost…
Merry (almost) Christmas!
(and Happy Holidays to those who might not celebrate)
This morning I was awakened bright and early by my mother, demanding aid in shovelling the piles and piles of heavy snow that covered our driveway. Actually, she didn’t demand at all but rather enquired about [...]

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Today specifically is the most wonderful because today marks the official start of my holidays. Finally! It feels like I’ve been waiting forever for this moment. I finished my last exam at 3:40pm. And then I jumped up and down in the athletic complex where the exams were held, ran screaming and cheering through the [...]
