So many things to tell you guys. Firstly, I was asked to be a bridesmaid for my bestie and cousin. Obviously, I am super excited and cannot wait to go try on dresses, help plan the stagette, and just be there for the bride-to-be! I’ve been Pinteresting non-stop since she asked me!
On Saturday, the bf and I went for a drive. I LOVE going for drives to little towns, listening to music as we watch the world pass by. We drive slow and sometimes we don’t have a destination in mind, we just drive. Winter drives are beautiful. Up north is like a crisp white desert, you can see trees off in the distance, and abandoned farms every once in a while. It’s quite sublime. We ended up in Alliston (which isn’t too far from where I live) and stopped in at Bistro Burger Joint for lunch.
The burger was delicious, thick, and juicy. I got the bacon, cheese, bacon burger — topped with tomatoes and a red wine aioli. We shared a poutine, homemade fries, succulent gravy, and huge creamy cheese curds — you gotta eat there. Next I’d like to head over to Paris, Ontario and then St. Mary’s, just waiting for a day of nice weather for those two.
The bf sent me the photo below, it’s my new matra. I read it at least twice a day and follow it the best that I can. I need to work on #3 and #8… they drive me crazy!
This week I’m going to finally visit a head hunter to help me find a job, or at least help open my eyes to what else is out there. I’m ready to start the next phase of my life and a career is the first step to that. I’m also looking for some freelance writing assignments and approaching brands for potential partnerships. I feel like I can do anything I put my mind to, I just a need direction.
It’s time to kick ass or chew gum… and guess what…. I’m all outta gum!
Talk soon,

seriously the best movie ending EVER.
Ah, Alliston. 🙂 I worked at the hospital foundation there for about a year and a half. I think that burger place was in progress when I left so I never got the chance to eat there. Congrats on being asked to be a bridesmaid 🙂 Enjoy the planning and fun! And good luck with finding a job. I’ve started working with an employment centre here and I think it’s helped me focus a little bit more. Hugs!
So glad to hear that you’re more focussed with the whole job thing. I think i need some perspective and the right tools to get the job I’m dreaming of! Thanks for always reading my posts! xoxo
Right? I watch it over and over again!
