(This post is obviously late but I blame that on my previous writer's block)! I just wanted to reminisce about it because my boyfriend spoiled me to no end which is something I'm just, in general, not used to! This year I didn't plan anything with friends or family. I have had many people bail and no show when I made big birthday plans in the past. Anyways I like to think that things seems to turn out for the better when they are not planned and I love spontaneity :)<br />
<br />
My birthday fell on a Friday this year and I spent the day sleeping in and relaxing. As I received numerous bday wishes on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and through the phone, I was just treating the day like it was any other day. My boyfriend's brother's girlfriend (that's a mouthful haha) even personally stopped by to give me birthday hugs which was a very pleasant surprise.<br />
<br />
When my boyfriend came home from work, he told me that I had to start getting ready and I was wondering, 'ooooo for what?' & 'where are we going?' He said it was a surprise and that I need to dress up nicely. I love getting all dressed up and thankfully I envisioned exactly what I was going to wear for my 25th birthday. So we both got ready and my boyfriend seemed to be blown away by what I was wearing. Let's just say it accentuated my best <i>assets</i> ;)<br />

We got in a cab and I had really no idea where we were going! We headed towards a part of Toronto I never been to but it looked very chic. The weather was perfectly breezy and sunny too! He courted me to this upscale looking restaurant called, Reds, on a corner of Yonge & Adelaide St (busy intersection) and asked to sit on the patio which ran along the sidewalk. As I looked at the menu, however, it didn't seem as upscale as I thought. The menu was expensive but the items were what I would expect at Jack Astors. Besides that, I was happy that my boyfriend surprised me and we both ordered delicious Bellinis.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Then my boyfriend looked really confused looking at the menu some more and all of a sudden says, "Babe, I think I took you to the wrong restaurant..." hahahah in my mind I was like 'thank god' (because it just seemed way to overpriced for the food options being presented). He actually planned to take me to an Italian restaurant, Scaddabush, but wasn't sure where it was because he never been there before either! Of course his surprise for me was ruined but we slyly asked for the bill, and asked the waiter politely (and embarrassingly) where Scaddabush was situated. He chuckled and said it was right beside Reds and we just had to walk a minute more to reach its location! Of course we explained that it was supposed to be a bday surprise and my boyfriend mistakenly took me to the wrong restaurant!<br />
<br />
We shamelessly finished our Bellinis and scurried right over to Scaddabush's patio. Let me tell you...this is now my favourite Italian restaurant! It was a little bit pricy but not over the top AND the food is authentically Italian. I am usually hestitant with Italian restaurants as I am partially Italian and used to homemade Italian food. This restaurant changed my opinion and I highly recommend!! The food was authentic and came in big portions which was very surprising for an upscale restaurant. We ate fried calamari and 'poor man's bread' as our appetizers and for our mains we ordered lemon chicken dinner, and chicken with sundried tomato linguine in alfredo sauce. We also couldn't forget a nice bottle of Italian red wine :) We're alchys sorry hahaha...For dessert, we ordered cheesecake and strawberry tartufo (my favourite!). Mmmmmm my mouth is watering just thinking about it! <b>***Also side note***</b> inside the restaurant was beautiful and they had a girl DJ playing right before you walked up the stairs to the washroom, it was SICKKKK!<br />

After dinner, we were so stuffed we literally had troubled walking! That could have also been a combination of drunkness and my heels hahaha jk but seriously we were that FULL! We decided to go to our favourite club, El Convento Ricos (where we also met for the first time), in hopes that we could dance off all the food we just ate. Yeahh...sooo the dancing didn't help and I just couldn't move the rest of the night but we enjoyed going and seeing the usual drag queen performances. It was a wonderful night and such a nice surprise for my 25th bday <3 We spent the rest of my 25th bday weekend hardcore dancing and raving at Digital Dreams (electronic music festival) but I will make another post about that event later. You don't want to miss it!!!<br />

I have got to the point of discouragement and depression because either I get rejected through an automated email or I don't receive any call backs. I feel like a complete and utter FAILURE. I have had many jobs and lots of experience from customer service to retail to office and I also have a Uni. degree, so why is it I'm not being hired anywhere? Also, my resume has been looked over by a few people (professional & unprofessional) and they have all said it's a great resume...I mean... obviously I have obtained jobs in the past with it in hand!<br />

<br />
For the past month I have been applying online and in person and it's become very tiring. It has come to the point where I get physically tired from applying and applying and applying - it's absolutely ridiculous! I just moved to the city for school and thought it was easier to find jobs here. The thing is there are actually LOTS of jobs posted that do not require any experience or extra qualifications and I have not heard from them either. It's tiring because most of these online application processes take over 30 minutes to complete their assessments and questionnaires. Like seriously, they should tell me I'm not the right candidate just by scanning my resume instead of wasting my time further just to reject me in the end.<br />
<br />
People tell me not to worry, and that it takes time but I don't have time to just loaf around. I need to pay my school tuition, rent, and other important bills. I cry everyday because I feel depressed and not good enough for anything here. I have even lowered my standards just so I can get any job! :(<br />
<br />
How can anyone reject that face above? I'm a very hard working, dedicated, creative and punctual person. Nowadays, everything is done online and it's not as personal anymore. I just wonder how some people successfully get the jobs that I look at...are they lying their way through? Some people just seem to not care about the job when they are on the job. I've seen so many careless employees, I just don't get it...does anyone else feel the same? Does anyone have any tips on actually landing a part time mediocre job in Toronto? Any suggestions or advice for me and others who are having the same problem? I've seriously jokingly mentioned stripping for cash to my bf, in which he responded with a big fat NO hahaha that's how desperate I've become! He was not too pleased with that suggestion..but honestly I need to find something <i>decent</i> soon!! Fingers crossed :)<br />
<br />
<br />
...or someone could just help me get a job but that would be wishful thinking, wouldn't it?<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have to say after countless hours, nights and months editing and tweaking, I am finally satisfied with the result of my new blog layout <b>(seen below)</b>!! I'm hoping it will make my old and new readers feel more welcomed when they enter my blog. I just feel that it is more of an open concept now with my own personal touch :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In case anyone is wondering, I started from the Simple Template provided by Blogger and worked on it all on my own from there. I love the font I chose for the blogpost title because it looks more effortless (I love handwriting by the way). I love that I incorporated the colour <i><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>blue</b></span></i> more because not only is it one of my fave colours, it reminds me of the lakeshore + matches my eye colour! It has more of a nautical feel to it. I also figured out how to make my 'About Me' profile picture round from searching this blog <a href="http://www.everylittlepolish.com/how-to-make-your-blogger-about-me-profile-picture-round/" target="_blank">HERE</a> !!! It was REALLY helpful! Honestly, I thought I had to get a professional graphic designer to achieve this look (I even asked a couple of friends) but I can tell you if you just look around and use your own creativity the blog will look and feel much better to YOU <i>(and that's what matters the most)</i>! I feel inspired and encouraged to write now that I am pleased with my layout. The only thing I want to approve is the little 'About Me' blurb...I want to make it short & sweet but so far it's been difficult to come up with something that possesses all my qualities AND what this blog will be all about...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If anyone has any ideas for my 'About Me' description, please let me know! I would really appreciate any thoughts on that. </div>

I was having problems being able to write in my blog again because I was not satisfied with my previous layout. I thought if I don't like going to my OWN blog, no one else will go to it either. I knew I needed a change. Down below is my old layout and although when I look at it now it doesn't look too bad I just feel it needed a bit more airiness with better coordination :) It's amazing how something as simple as a new blog layout could create such motivation and inspiration to write again.<br />

Unfortunately, for the longest time my attempted fishtail braids looked more like a <i>bird's nest braid</i> hahaha... until recently when I found out a very easy and helpful tip that I learned from a Youtuber, LoeyLane. I've linked her YT video below! I couldn't believe that this one quick, and SIMPLE (like really simple it blew my mind) trick only involves the use of of <span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>ONE</b></span> hair tye. When I tried her tip, I was able to get the perfect fishtail braid on the first try! Now I can really say that the fishtail braid is very easy to do and ONLY looks complicated!!! In the end, you get a beautiful but effortless hair style :) On the same day that I tried Loey's tip, I did a no makeup to full makeup look because I was just so happy that I actually pulled it off. It's great for days when you're having a bad hair day, or if you just want your hair out of the way! Please check out LoeyLane's "7 Quick and Easy Hairstyles for School" video on YouTube <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxX2-r8wAY8&list=UU39eHhTEqiBlqRbmIIYjm-g" target="_blank">HERE</a> to know how I pulled the fishtail braid on my first try! <3<br />

<br />
I've been putting blogging off to the side everyday pretty much since my last post. It's always in the back of my mind. I usually think of great topics and say to myself, "hmmm that's a good idea to write in my blog..." and then I never have the courage to actually write it! Well, here is an attempt to help me get back into the swing of things. This post is going to be dedicated to the topic of "<span style="color: #073763;"><b>friendship + saying goodbye</b></span>."<br />
<br />
I titled this post "Saying Goodbye" because I recently thought of all the friends I lost after high school. High school really is a different world. When you're in high school, you live in a world (more like a bubble) that makes you believe friendships will be long lasting until you're all old and grey! Yay! I remember I would walk around the block everyday after school with my best friend, and we would talk about such things as being at one another's weddings, spending every girl's night together, growing old, etc. Reality is, I am now 24 yrs old and my high school <i>bestie</i> and I are not in any contact whatsoever! It is sad to lose friends, but I have learned to say goodbye to the past and move on. Why should I be hung up over losing friends? If they really were my true friend, soulmate, best friend FOR LIFE, whatever you want to define it; they would still be part of my life right? Right. In fact, I found myself caring more about what she did after our friendship ended such as if she succeeded through school, her love life and more - all through social media. I bet she does not or did not do the same for me. It just caused more stress in my life from all the regret I was feeling.<br />
<span style="color: #073763;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #073763;">*By the way, just in case you think this post is an angst post against an ex-friend - it really isn't. I have no hard feelings towards this certain individual, and I don't waste my time looking up her life through social media anymore. She was part of a significant time in my life and I hope that maybe she feels the same way about me too...and if not, well that is cool too. We did have a fall out and had made amends, but life gets in the way I guess.</span><br />
<br />
Losing friends is something we need to let go. We can't always be hung up on the "could have beens" of friendships. People change after high school. We all become part of the bigger picture, and sometimes those friends you had just don't fit within the lines of your masterpiece. Besides, what is the point of having so many friends? We're always told that quality is better than quantity. Well, I would say I may have a few close/best friends but they provide me quality friendships. As it is, I find it is difficult (maybe it's just me) to handle the amount of 'friends' I have on Facebook! Most of them are actually high school friends that I don't know on a personal level anymore but I get to see (through social networking) how they have grown since the time I <i>knew</i> them. I keep it simple with the close knit group of friends I have made throughout the years after high school. So far, they have all grown with me personally and we have kept very lovely friendships. I feel as though high school friendships can be a little superficial. It is like you were 'trying' out friends, going through them, and made to believe you needed to settle with them. Were we just friends for the sake having friends to uphold a good social status during high school?<br />
<br />
From my personal experience, friendships after high school are so much more serious and long lasting (*no worries, I still have a couple of close friendships that stemmed from high school btw!!). But if you want to continue having friends just for quantitative reasons then that's cool too. However, just know that it becomes a bit lonely when you don't have true friends to share and trust with all your secrets and are also able to handle all your crazy personal attributes :)<br />
<br />
I want to leave off with this image that I retweeted on Twitter about ex-bestfriends:<br />

I wore this outfit to the mall I think about a month ago and just been too lazy to write about it. Sorry :/<br />
The first part of the video was filmed by me and the mall segment was filmed by my little brother who has no camera experience. I think next time I will tell him to stick with one camera angle!! :) It was fun and kind of awkward being filmed in the mall! Luckily it was very quiet that night. I am brave though, and I hope to do it again soon!!!<br />
<br />
I also want to point out that this outfit is very figure flattering for someone who wants to hide their stomach area. I wish I remembered to mention that in the YouTube video but I may do more videos that explain what items will flatter someone with the same body type as me! :)<br />
<br />
Enough talk & more PICTURE TIME!<br />

</tbody></table> My aunt and uncle (my "godparents") always buy me gifts every Christmas. For the last three Christmas' they have bought me items from COACH. They bought me my first COACH wristlet 3 years ago, which was my first ever 'designer' accessory/purse item! Now I love COACH and you will see later what I bought for myself from there too! These gloves are sooo soft and luxurious. I absolutely love the gold button detail and the coloured bows <3 I have yet to wear them because I'm afraid of ruining them, and I also want to save them for a nice event/outing! <br />

</tbody></table> Ok. My bro and his wife didn't actually pick this for me. They had bought me a gift card for Wal-mart and I decided to buy this! I needed a new curling iron because the one I had was originally my mom's from the 80s...so I hope you understand that any curler is better than the one I was using!!! haha I used this once so far, and it heats up super fast and it worked very well. I hope to use it more often, and I really like that it's ceramic. <br />

I never seen 'Sky Captain' so I decided to try it out for only $3.97! It was an awesome movie and I'm glad I bought it! 2nd is 'Arthur' with my future hubby, Russell Brand <3 love this movie!!! I bought it on sale for $10.00! 3rd is both of the 'Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants' movies in one disc-set which I bought for only $5.00. I never buy double disc-sets but since I had only seen the first movie, I decided I would buy them this way just in case the 2nd movie was shitty...which it wasn't after all. I actually would say I liked the second one better although both are good overall. <br />

I saw some of my gfs have these satchels from COACH and for the longest time I debated if I should spend a lot just for a purse. I finally bit the bullet and purchased one at the COACH factory outlet near where I live. I received 30% off when I entered the store, and I knew I was going to get one of these with it!This is actually the first designer purse/accessory I have every bought on my own :) <br />

Nothing else to say. I have been working a lot and never have time to go out and dress up lately :( I hope to have better posts soon!!!Sonia Anastasiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05476435704639927987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6968199518371824227.post-64605292908870806872012-01-17T20:33:00.000-08:002012-01-17T20:38:23.894-08:00My Skin Lifesaver !I have the worst facial skin ever! It's really dry and I always get red spots and blemishes. Part of the reason is my fault because I touch my face too much when I break out. I just can't stand seeing a pimple on my face :( Also, a lot of the time the pimples are ingrown and are soooo painful I cannot bear leaving it alone! After I usually deal with them (the wrong way of course), they dry up and I get flaky skin. It also leaves large red blemishes! *tear* Recently, my brother (of all people) suggested this night moisturizer by The Body Shop that helped him diminish his acne. He actually gave it to me and ever since my skin has felt so moisturized and less dry. I use it with a day moisturizer by The Body Shop and I noticed my skin has improved so much! I can say now I hardly even get acne because I think the Vitamin E in both products prevent it. I now only seem to break out when that time of the month is near which is better than breaking out all the time! I also haven't had any ingrown painful pimples since I have been using these products. They are now my day/night skin lifesaver <3 My bro said they are expensive but it's definitely worth the money and I WILL purchase more in the future.<br />

This post is long overdue as this event took place the Thursday before Christmas Eve! lol sorry guys...I'm such a procrastinator!It's kind of funny that we went to the club on a Thursday but we're cool like that ;D<br />
<br />
It was my first time going to a club as a VIP and it was overall a medicore experience. I feel like it's so overpriced for bottle service when you can get the same bottles at the LCBO for half the club's price. I guess people like bottle service at a club for the experience though. I did feel pretty cool being VIP though because we got our own booth and it was nice to sit from all the dancing once in awhile in our own private area :) We all split the cost for the alcohol but it sucked because I didn't really get a say as to what kind of alcohol we would be sharing. Everyone wanted TEQUILA...and if you read my Halloween post you would know I never want to drink that stuff again! Nonetheless, we all split on Tequila and I drank it unwillingly because I wanted to get my money's worth :( ewwwww... We also got greasy pizza and 3 drinks to mix the alcohol with for being VIP. I was expecting a much better choice(s) for the food part but I guess people like greasy pizza at the club...<br />
<br />
Later that night, I asked one of the guys in our party if he would buy me a rum & coke from the bar because I wanted to avoid drinking more of the tequila. I guess he was already drunk because when I came back from dancing I saw a large bottle of dark rum at our table and I was like "WTF, where did this come from and who bought this???!!" I asked one of the waitresses who brought it and she told me that my friend (who I thought was at the bar getting my mixed drink...) BOUGHT IT RIGHT THERE!! It had to be atleast $100!!! I felt bad and started downing the rum too!! <br />
<br />
Needless to say, I mixed two hard liquors and ended up having a terrible end result by the end of the night. It's kind of funny when I think about it now but also very gross & embaressing haha >.< All the dancing wasn't enough for me to sober up and I got really sick. I remember I went to sit at our booth and I looked down and then...*BLARGH* I threw up all over the floor...:( :( Then the two security guards came and escorted me out LOL. I can't believe I was KICKED OUT of the club! I felt pretty bad and was crying so much outside in the cold but my friends came outside and made sure I was okay to go home.<br />
<br />
I had an awesome time dancing with my friends, despite my mishap. Luckily I didn't have any idiots try to dance up on me :) Here are some pics from that night!<br />

Oh the clubbing experience is hilarious all right...Sonia Anastasiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05476435704639927987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6968199518371824227.post-24972965185404019322011-12-28T22:27:00.000-08:002011-12-28T22:33:36.258-08:00Christmas Carol Secret Santa 2011Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!<br />
<br />
A week before Christmas though, my friends and I had a party that was themed "dress up like your favourite Christmas song" and it was super fun! My bestfriend and I came up with this theme together <3 A lot of our friends (like 96%) participated which was a surprise because I know as we get older, themed parties are perceived as juvenile. We also held a Surprise Secret Santa where everyone was required to buy a random $1 gift and give it to whomever's name they picked out of my Santa hat! Everyone had a laugh at their gifts, but I know they will also be cherished. It's fun to do Secret Santa because it gets everyone mingling with one another, even those we never met before! I recommend that people should hold these kind of parties during the holidays because it gets everyone together and it's different and exciting. It definitely got us all excited and prepared for Christmas a week later.<br />
<b style="color: #e06666;">PS.</b> I dressed up as the "Last Christmas" song! I cut out a craft foam heart and wrote "last christmas" with a rigged line in the middle and then I cut a second heart that had the line from the song"this year I'll give it to someone special!" I would hold the second heart in my pocket and pass it along to those I loved! I wish I made more than one so everyone would get to keep my heart(s)!!! My friend Emily was the lucky one that got to keep the good heart in the end and she said she will show me it at next year's Christmas party to show her devotion lmaooo!!!! <br />
<br />

</tbody></table>We ended the night talking and finishing our drinks. I was drunk and decided to prank call people using my phone with my friend Emily. We were asking people to do "sex surveys" with us over the phone. It was hilarious! I also called my friend Mathew saying I was someone from "Planned Parenthood" LOL. Good times!!!<br />

But I never shop for myself often and I can't turn down good deals when I see them! My main objective when I went to the mall was to finally get a new cellphone plan which also made me buy a new phone to go with the plan! I didn't want a new phone, but I guess I had update sooner or later anyways! I did go on other shopping trips for others but lets just focus on MEEEEE this time, ok? I also thought that some of these would be great gift ideas that I could share with my reader since I had found really good deals for things that are often very expensive! Well here you go also complete with some random<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"><b> <span style="color: #cc0000;">Christmas-y & Kitty</span> </b><b style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="background-color: white;"></span></b></span><b style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"></b>pictures too.

Seriously. The last show I followed on TV was The Office (which is still one of my fave shows!!!).<br />
I thought I should dedicate a blog post to this particular show because I have been spending most days trying to catch up on the last three seasons on the internet so I can prepare myself for the fourth season (which starts in 2012!! ) It took me about a week and now I'm on episode 7 of the third season, yay me! hahaha...<br />
I should be more focused on other things, but this show is very ADDICTING...and gets my mind off of shitty things going on in my life at the moment. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiemdMBLDMLfTnS2VkhzIWFK6VTK6i-duNsAv05IGtMOpoUQNo4w4Jdha1EceiWmMTHrOJ0T2B9tEQyCn9jpc49jUhBGdtohlSV9j7_vbOMCbpe6tySG-YjldUnpOH4ShKmg2EOLBex4gpJ/s1600/DROP-DEAD-DIVA.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiemdMBLDMLfTnS2VkhzIWFK6VTK6i-duNsAv05IGtMOpoUQNo4w4Jdha1EceiWmMTHrOJ0T2B9tEQyCn9jpc49jUhBGdtohlSV9j7_vbOMCbpe6tySG-YjldUnpOH4ShKmg2EOLBex4gpJ/s400/DROP-DEAD-DIVA.jpg" width="323" /></a></div>If you don't know about this show, I will give a brief summary: It is about this very skinny model, Deb, who has the perfect life until she dies in a car accident. She hits the "return" button when she goes to "limbo" and her soul is transferred into another woman's body who happened to have died around the same time Deb died. Deb is now Jane, a larger bodied, highly intelligent lawyer. With this new body, she also gained Jane's brains. This brings a lot of changes for Deb because she has to learn how to move on while working with her "ex" boyfriend (Deb's bf) in the lawfirm as well as meet people that the real Jane knew. Needless to say, Jane encounters alot of challenges which are often humourous and unique. She has to live a totally different life than Deb,s like trying to get over struggles with her bigger body image--something she never encountered before. She also has to fight lawyer battles every day!<br />
<br />
Needless to say, this show has a very unusual premise and storyline but it somehow works! I love to see what Deb/Jane has to deal with every episode, while I also hope that things work out for her in the end!!<br />
<br />
It is also different seeing a bigger woman as a lead character of a TV series. I think this alone brings a positive message to woman in real life who are larger than Deb's size. Jane really has it all: <b><span style="color: #e06666;">brains and beauty</span></b> :) <br />

Ugh, sooo lately I have been super nervous and stressed about applying for grad school. I need to get a Masters degree to become a full librarian !!! I know to most people they find this hard to believe but honestly librarians have a lot to do and are very knowledgeable about LOTS of things. They are not just there to "shhhhh!" and sign in/out books !!! Unfortunately, this is a very common misconception. Mostly anyone that have asked me what I wanted to be after University are surprised when I say "I want to be a librarian." The first thing most people say to this is ,"Wow, librarians need to go to University and get a Masters degree? People still read? woww!" ARGH. It's really annoying when people assume this b.s. about librarians~!!! <br />
<br />
Applying for grad school requires a long process. I first had to email my profs from last year to ask for references. I'm a really shy person and was very shy in University courses so it took me awhile to finally get the courage to email them!!! Luckily my bf helped me write the emails! Without his help...I would still be thinking too much about it and wouldn't be doing anything! I actually got two replies, which is all I really needed! It would help if I got a third but I'm just lucky two have replied :) Now, the next step is to write an essay/cover letter that explains why I want to be in the program and why I should be accepted, and also a resume, and official school transcripts >.< AHHH.<br />
Not to mention, they also want $125 for applying...<br />
<br />

I consider it even better than my OWN birthday !! seriously.<br />
<br />
Halloween happened on a Monday this year which didn't really leave room for possibilities so I decided to work on Halloween and spend the day with my amazingly costumed co-workers/friends <3 We got ready together before work and arrived in style (& almost late...oops!) Work was pretty much dead so we spent most of our time going around taking pictures and probably pissing off the little amount of elderly customers who found some of our costumes distasteful. But it was Halloween, so we flaunted what we had on whether it was authentic, cool, and/or slutty! One of my friends who dressed up in just a corset, booty shorts and fishnets overheard one of the customers in the restaurant say, "See, all they do on Halloween is dress like sluts!" LOL I laughed so hard, but my friend found it equally humourous because the point of her costume was to be a "slut" of some kind ;D<br />
<br />
BY THE WAY, I WAS MY FAVOURITE SUPERHERO: <b style="color: #f1c232;">THOR</b>...but the girl version:<br />
<br />

I pretty much made all the accessories, and the helmet took the most time (6 hrs). I also based the helmet design from the oldschool Disney movie, "Adventures in Babysitting." Unfortunately, the helmet had a terrible fate which you will read about down below :(<br />
<br />
<br />
Anyways, after work we were all driven to our restaurant's corporate Halloween party an hour away and late at night (around 11:30pm) and partied hard...or atleast I did. We danced it up, and went on stage to represent our restaurant's location as we danced to LMFAO'S "Sexy and I Know It" song. It was so funny!! We did a sychronized dance to the "wiggle wiggle wiggle" part of the song. If you don't know this song, look up the video because it's so jokes!!! I also entered the costume contest, but I didn't win which made me really sad but all the contestants were great! One of the girls from our group was downing tequila shots with our female manager...and lets just say one of them ended up on the bathroom floor between the stalls and I unfortunately found her there first. By that time, I was pretty much done because of the many tequila shots she gave me and I didn't know what to do. All I have to say about tequila is: <b style="color: #e69138;">TEQUILA=NEVER AGAIN!!!</b> eff that shit. On the drive home, I pretty much threw up in my handmade helmet but it didn't help that the person driving was "jerky" when lane changing and braked too suddenly most times. I felt really bad that my friends had to sit beside me and watch me do this but damnn those shots got me really good (or bad if you really think about it) :( Besides the shot and drink mixing, I had an amazing Halloween!! Here are some pictures from that day!!<br />
I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween!!!<br />

<br />
I just wanted to say that I appreciate all the recent comments on my blog. I really dislike that I cannot<br />
instantly reply to each and every comment! Just know, that I read EVERY COMMENT! I get so excited when I read them! Is there an instant way of replying or does blogger just suck in that aspect? haha.<br />
<br />
Anyways, I will have a better blog post soon that explains what I did for Halloween (my fave day of the year!) and my recent exciting news !!! :):)<br />
<br />
Hope that keeps you in suspense ;D<br />

Yes, I saved $160 and bought myself Jeffrey Campbell "Lita"s in black leather. I have been drooling over these shoes ever since I watched a fashion video by Clothesencounters on YT back in March. I bit the bullet and finally went and bought them online mid-September. I patiently waited but they finally arrived the first week of October which was really fast!!! I think in the future I may buy a pair in red suede, and cream suede. There are so many colours/styles on Solestruck.com. I ended up buying my pair from Revolve.com because they offered free shipping to Canada <3 However, Revolve.com does not have all the style/colour choices that Solestruck has FYI.<br />
<br />
I have already wore them twice outside and they are quite comfortable for platforms. They also stay true to size. I bought mine in a size 8 and luckily they fit perfectly. I was worried they were going to be snug with socks on but they fit quite comfortably enough that I think if I bought an 8 1/2 they would fit too big!<br />
THESE ARE THE MOST EXPENSIVE PAIR OF SHOES I OWN and my most favourite...<br />
isn't that kind of sad? <br />

</div>I am such a grumps! lol This is what I wore to my Uncle's office the other day when I visited! It was early in the morning (7:00am) when I took these pictures so please excuse the lack of expression on my face: I AM NOT A MORNING PERSON AT ALL!!! >.< Nonetheless, I wanted to share my casual office attire.I like to call this outfit "office casual" because it's casual but at the same time looks professional. I also tried to avoid wearing all black pieces because my Uncle's business partner always comments on how I never wear colour (which is true...black/dark colours are my staples). I always like to dress up when I visit my Uncle's office, because I hardly ever have situations where I need to dress up all professional-like. Plus, when I go to his office I get to do office errands such as filing , faxing, mailing, etc, so I need to look the part all the times, especially since it's an insurance business he deals with.<br />
I also did a simple make-up look, and the pictures are below! Overall, I had a lovely day at the office as usual which ended with a delightful lunch at a nice Italian restaurant. How fitting! :) My uncle has asked me to visit him every 2-3 weeks for now on to catch up, which I would love to do. I really hope we can keep these arrangements up because I love visiting him and my aunt! They are truly special to me <3<br />

Pretty much, she asked the contestants to make a video response explaining "what makes you confident", while being dressed and done up as a pin up girl. <b><span style="color: #e69138;">My answer:</span> </b>I feel most confident when I believe and have faith in myself and/or what I am doing!<br />
I mixed some of her makeup tips, with my own creativity to create my own pin up look and I think I did a really good job ;D I definitely felt very confident being made up the way I was. It took awhile to do the hair and the makeup but it all came together in the end. Here are some pictures I took of myself:<br />

I had a lot of fun taking these photos! I really felt like I fit the part of a pin up chick. Although, I wish the camera that I used captured my natural blue eyes better :( <br />
<br />
<b style="color: #e69138;">HAIR:</b> I used hot rollers and rolled them inwards (20 mins).<br />
Added bobby pins<br />
<b><span style="color: #e69138;">FACE:</span></b> Elysee moisturizer <br />
MicaBella Mineral powder foundation<br />
QUO concealer<br />
Avon "swoon" pink blush.<br />
<b style="color: #e69138;">EYES: </b>Avon "romantic mauves quad" eyeshadow(pink slip & mauved)<br />
Faces eye highlighter<br />
Fake eyelashes<br />
Avon SuperSHOCK MAX mascara<br />
Almay brow defining pencil (brunette) (used for fake mole near eye and brows lol)<br />
Avon Daring Definition Gel eyeliner (black)<br />
<b style="color: #e69138;">LIPS: </b>Avon Glazewear "Real Red"<br />

<b style="color: #e69138;">DRESS: </b>Goodwill<br />
<b><span style="color: #e69138;">EARRINGS:</span></b> Avon<br />
<br />
I would definitely rock this look somewhere classy and fun ! Maybe to a party or a club :) Too bad I had no where to go when I did all this. Being sick also didn't help! I'm recovering now, slowly but surely...<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Hope you all like my pin-up look! </b><br />

It's a fixable job but it's just too unsafe to drive it the way it is right now. Also, it's rusting pretty bad underneath and already made a hole through one of the important bars underneath :( It was the very first vehicle I went out and bought on my own last year <3 I know it's old but it was actually an amazing truck as it lasted through three accidents and hardly took any damage!!! IT'S A BEAST! I even passed my G road test in this truck on my first try (in Canada, the G test is the last test/license to get in order to drive on all roads, and it's really difficult to pass it!)!!!!! <br />
<br />
I loved it for its nostalgic quality. Everything in it was so OLDSCHOOL, and I love it because modern cars don't have these qualities anymore. For instance, the way of locking it was the way people would legitimately lock their car doors in the 1980s. The steering was not powersteering,,,meaning you need some muscles to park and whatnot. The gauges inside were so old looking but awesome at the same time. It was like I was living the life of an 80s person in present day hahaha. I started driving this temporary Honda I have and it's so advanced compared to my truck. It was so hard to get used to! Steering was the biggest thing I had to get used to, because in the Honda it feels like I'm driving in an arcade driving videogame!<br />
<br />
I am selling my truck and hopefully its next owner will be able to appreciate it the way I did, and perhaps be able to restore it. It could probably last another year, but I just don't have the funds to keep it up anymore. I am so sad about this :(<br />
<br />

GOOD BYE 1987 MAZDA TRUCK, I WILL MISS YOU!! <3<br />

It's still the same length on the bottom, but I have short choppy layers on top! I loves it <3 I also dyed it a reddish-brown colour because my past colour was faded so much. I wish my hair was naturally red but it was too hard to keep up all the time :( I have decided to grow out my natural hair colour, and the dyed colour really would blend well with it. Here are the results! *Caution: I am a nerd* lol.<br />

I've been lazy, I'm sorry! :( I just wanted to make a quick post about the last Harry Potter movie, and how I absolutely....LOVED it, except the ending. I hated the epilogue in the book and was disappointed that they actually included it in the movie. I also dislike that they only took maybe one minute to depict Snape's past. I wish it was LONGER because that was my favourite part in the last book *sigh.* <br />
<br />
On my actual birthday, I went downtown Toronto and took the subway with my friend. There is a subway stop called "St. Patrick Station" and it happened to be adorned in huge Harry Potter posters advertising the movie (my bday was two weeks before the movie came out). We decided to take pictures there, and I like to say that I got to be with my bf, Harry Potter ^.~ you will see why in a moment!!! (Although, I always had a thing for Draco Malfoy ;)) <3<br />

I wanted to write about my birthday/graduation party I threw myself. It was kind of disappointing that many people didn't show up...*ahemorbotherlettingmeknowtheyweren'tgoingto*...but the people who had decided to show up are honestly A-M-A-Z-I-N-G :) And of course, the people who told me ahead of time that they couldn't make it are really awesome too. My party was Alice In Wonderland/English tea party themed, and I actually went out to auctions and thrift stores to buy trinkets, random tea pots & tea cups, hat boxes, etc that would make for a good mad hatter tea party ahahah! I even bought tons of different little desserts. Although not many people came and the party didn't turn out the way I totally planned, I still had an amazing time and I'm just grateful, again, for the friends who decided to come. I was skeptical about this party because whenever I have thrown large parties like this in the past, they have always failed, so I was expecting another failure which wasn't really the case this time around <3<br />
I didn't get many pictures from the night though, but we honestly had a good time drinking, laughing, and getting bitten by the bugs...ok not really but I did get tipsy off of jello shooters, and alcoholic tea lol! And we had a random adventure in the night searching for bugspray around the area! hahah <b>ANNDDD </b><br />
I asked for the girls to wear summer dresses and optionally, a hat! I was the only one that wore a hat but my friend Dave went all out too and wore a hat and bow tie :) hahaha <b><br />
</b><br />
<b>We really are mad! </b><br />

<br />
I know, I know, I haven't been blogging for awhile. I always want to make my posts extra special with lots of pictures, to keep it somewhat interesting for the readers of course :)<br />
<br />
I am going through a lot right now in my personal life. I had two mental breakdowns this past week because of what has been going on. They are things that are too complex to explain here but maybe sometime I will explain more in future blogs. Right now I've been trying to cope with all the stress and anger I'm dealing with at the moment.<br />
<br />
The good news is: I had a great birthday/grad party on Saturday which was English Teaparty/Alice in Wonderland themed. I will make a post about that soon.<br />
<br />
AND,<br />
I joined the GYM last night!!! It's awesome because it's 24 hrs so I can go at night anytime. I hope I can keep up with it because I have signed up for a yearly membership! <br />
<br />
I really hope everyone is doing well, and I will keep you posted SOON, I PROMISE. <3Sonia Anastasiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05476435704639927987noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6968199518371824227.post-60360802472658427482011-06-29T23:13:00.000-07:002011-06-29T23:13:07.665-07:00Miss Red Retro.Hey Babes,<br />
