Happy now?

I've been receiving complaints about my lack of bloggin' lately.
I apologize.
I'm just so caught up in Twitter lately ;)  ha

Okay, I tweeted 4 times in the past 4 days...so my daily tweetage is pretty good I would say. I even learned how to attach a photo! Fancy stuff this twitter thing.. :) And I downloaded it onto my phone, so I can now tweet from my bed, tweet from the bus stop, tweet on the bus, tweet at school.....tweet, tweet, tweet

Actually there is just a lack of bloggin' worthy material in my life right now. I was gonna show off my midterm project, but I only took photos of 2 of the 4 boards. BUT, never fear! You will get to see them...I get the project back this Friday and I will blog away ASAP :)

Life is good otherwise... had reading week, spent some time with the famjam, the bestie, another dear friend...some new clothes...logged some hours at McDs with the Mcfamjam. And tomorrow I celebrate 2 weeks of being 20....

Only 6 more weeks of school :)) and then I'm halfway done! YESS

Now just to find a summer job......

Halfway to 40!

I had a birthday! This week actually. The big  2-0! No longer a teenager. So i guess adult comes next. but i hardly feel like i can classify myself as an adult. Hardly think I can classify myself as anything haha

Anyways I had a good birthday, the friday before I had some of closest, dearest girl friends over for some hawaiianish fun.... I had some friends do the decorating and I arranged the fruit all rainbowish and had different color napkins, plates, cutlery and cups. And those cute little umbrella toothpicks and fancy table cloths...picking out the decorations was the most fun!  kidding i had fun on the night of my party too :)

And we ate, and played some games and dance and sung to some Abba.... i LOVE abba.... :)

And then on my actual birthday my family ventured allllll the way up to Brampton to see me! and I got flowers :)  2nd time that week - I actually got valentine flowers too :) some pretty purple roses! 

And we went to the Mandarin! 

A common attempt at taking a photo of us kids:



And a nice one :) (my dad put that hat on my head - don't ask)

So much stuff!

What a week! Craziness!


Went to Crowne Wallpaper last week friday - the largest wallpaper warehouse in Canada. There were lots of pretty wallpapers to look at and we had to pick out one for our final project. There's actually so much to know about wall paper! Some wallpapers they even grind granite of gold into!

So many pretty patterns!




^That's for my mid term project


^That's me and a fabulous lamp wallpaper I'd love to use in a stairwell or a hallway- or both!

And then that night I got a haircut!

                                            
                                             ^ anddd i'm wearing my yellow scarf :)



Then this week started off with watching the Super Bowl Sunday night with a bunch of friends. First time I've ever watched an entire football game. Started off a little slow, but after the half time show it got pretty exciting!
I kept switching back from the white team to the blue team (Patriots and the Giants - right?) I forget who won but it was a fun night! ;)

And on Tuesday, I got up nice and early - 6am to be in class for 8. Literally was at school for 10 minutes and the power went out! And i was stuck in a dark bathroom - scary stuff. An announcement came on and told us to stay where we were. HA like i was going to wait in the bathroom till the power came back on.

...so my first 2 classes were cancelled!!  And I was home for  10 30. Just went back for my last class at 3 30. And there were only 7 of us and basically the teacher now loves us :) haha

And on Wednesday we went to the ROM! And I rode the Toronto subway for the first time!
I have respect for the people who ride the TTC everyday...It takes sooooo long to get downtown.
So we took the bus and the subway down to the ROM enjoyed a wonderful tour about the evolution of furniture throughout all the historical eras.







And we have another assignment that requires us to go down to Designers Walk in TO and take photos of furniture and build rooms from those. So we thought we could do that Wednesday Afternoon. However we just walked down Bloor past Burberry, Prada, La Swiss, Lactose, Coach, Louis Vouttin, Gucci, BCBG max aritzia, Gap, Rolex, Guess...alll those nice stores

And my favourite! POTTERY BARN :)




^I'm going to attempt to make a lamp like this -
 but with blue and green flowers for my sister

And today was just a boring old day. one boring english class where i wrote a boring letter assignment and then rode the boring bus home to do some boring homework all afternoon.....

But tomorrow is FRIDAY :)
