Canal Daze Again

On Saturday, we headed to Port Colborne for the Canal Days festival. It started off sunny and then we drove right into a bad storm! Scary momento especially over the bridge. But by the time we got there, it had cleared, and was sunny again and comfortable weather. We had sooo much fun!! went to the hippie stall where I got soo thrilled at finding the perfect tapestry for my bedroom wall! It's a pretty shade of orange with Mandala design and elephants and flowers all over it, I also got a friendship bracelet, a tanktop with Buddha's face on it and it says "SMILE", a Mayan worry doll from Guatemala, a song of India natural solid fragrance in patchouli, an Ark import tie-dye hippie pants, and a Indian sari long flowy skirt.

We ate dessert at the British Bakery..OMG, the chocolate coconut cake was so delicious, and empire cookies..mmmmm!! While we were eating inside the place, the power went off for a split second and then the radio announced an alarm twice that there is a tornado warning for Lake Erie..that scared the hell out of me! Thankfully, there was no "Twister" momento! There were big winds which nearly blew some of the tents away, but then the rain stopped again, and the sun came out. We shared an elephant ear with cinammon and sugar, and then looked around some more, watched some people doing zumba moves to irritating music..watched the Peruvian band perform which was good. Then we headed back home.

Hendrix Love

I got the magazine The Unknown Hendrix from Chapters a few days ago..this is a really great read, and tons of awesome sexy photos of Jimi!!! I love his quotes too. Hahaha..when he was a kid he pretended to play guitar by using a broom..i used to use round patio furnitures and a metal lamp to create a drum set..OMG..stupedo really!
thrifted stuff: hippie vest for $4.99. Rolling Stones t-shirt for $3.99. Books for $1.99..Animal Farm - been wanting to read this book for a long while.
The video shop near our place has closed down permanently..its soo sad!! We went there a few days ago and bought a few movies.."Whiplash", "The Hunted"-Danish..It's so sad that video shop are getting more and more extinct, and the guy who owns the shop told us that he can't afford working on minimum wage, it doesn't pay well, because there has been an increasing drop in video rentals over the past years and he said that he remembered when "Basic Instinct" (never heard of it) came out and people were flocking to rent that from him for weeks. And he said, that families used to rent on weekends, but that is over too. Netflix killed the video shop!

Much Ado Being Sick!

Whats been going on..yeah, been camping at the Indian Line in Mississauga last weekend with friends, had a blast at the water park, went for a day to Wonderland, rode on only one rollercoaster coz I chickened out of the other ones..i'm deadly afraid of heights! Anyways, camping was only for 3 days coz of exams..and then i got a virus and i'm still sick! We're supposed to go see "Jurassic World" at the drive-in on Thursday, but we might not get in..apparently there's like long line-ups to see it, don't know, besides i'm still sick and i don't feel like doing much lately.

Bengali

I finally had enough money saved up to buy this amazing Bengali patch pouf..100% made in India from Pier1. I placed it inside my alcove in my bedroom and it looks groovy there. I've been wanting this pouf since I first saw it in February but it is so expensive so I had to wait and when I went yesterday, there was only one left and they have back orders on it all the way till June. I love the material prints.

Hippie Haul + Spring Bluez
The weekend was loads of fun! Went with friends to the outlet place and to Forever21..they have such an amazing bohemian/hippie clothing section..i got a celestial kerchief, and Mandala print harem pants. Oh and a sleeveless tie-dye dress. I ordered an embroidered cap from prana.com..its sooo groovy!!! The weather really sux here in Southern Ontario!!! Its the worst winter and spring so far ever. We usually have daffodils growing in the front yard but this is the first time that its like gone?? or late blooming?? or is it ever going to be there again?? It looks like i'm going to celebrate a cold b-day again..i've decided to celebrate it at Ikea this time, its a chance to go on a road trip and just feel like going somewhere, and i love Ikea's fish n chips the most, so yeah, and this time i don't want a big b-day cake, i just want maybe cupcakes with jungle animal candles on them. Yeah, its gonna be different. If the weather would've been warm and spring-like, then it would've been at the fun city place where you can walk around outside at the Falls. Anyways, i'm okay by this coz i'm always up for doing something entirely different than the boring usual stuff.

4:51 p.m. - 2015-03-17

Here's some of my fav. health foods lately:
Arthur's Strawberry Rainforest smoothie..all natural ingredients with strawberries and acai pronounced ah-sigh-ee..i never know how to say this word, i usually say it as akaasia..LOL. okay now i will say it properly from now on. It tastes more like blackberries to me but its so delicious that i hope they sell this in a larger bottle!
Cracklesnax Potato Squares all natural..no trans fats..ummm..this has to be my most fav. chips ever..it tastes like baked potatos..its so good! its got turmeric in it which is very healthy for the body and garlic in it which is very subtle.
Leapin' Lemurs Natures Path cereal..First off, i heart the packaging a lot!! I love lemurs! The cereal is made out of lots of organic stuff, organic cocoa, corn meal, peanut butter, cane juice etc..I can't taste the peanut butter, its more like chocolate taste to me, and the lighter ones are like vanilla. I like the milk when it turns to chocolate milk and i just drink that afterwards..soo yummy!!
And Campbells homestyle rustic lentil soup is something i cannot get enough of!! Its the best tasting soup ever!! Its has a bit of a spicy kick to it too and carrots. Yumm!!

AC/DC rocked my socks off!

Wow, yeah AC/DC rocked the stage at the Grammies, they opened the show with so much excitement that the rest of the show fell totally flat! Sia sang to a wall, i didn't understand that?? Ummm..Madonna's bull fighting costume exposed her butt..ewww!! I did like ELO performing Mr. Blue Sky..that was awesome! But, i was doing other things while the show was going on like shoveling the snow outside, munching on all natural white bean + quinoa + lentil + chia cheesy nacho snackie..mmmm!!
My scanner stopped working which sux!! I keep getting this message "cue scanner component stopped working". I went out and got a new printer but i haven't had the time to install it yet. I've been told by future shop that printers stop working after 3 years. So that means everyone has to buy a printer every 3 years? wow.

4:56 p.m. - 2015-02-04
Rocks!
The rock collection i have so far..i plan on getting more. I don't really know the names of these rocks coz when i buy them from the Chinese vendor at the mall, the names aren't given with the purchase so i forget the names after a while, if that makes sense,lol. Anyways, i looked up a few that looks like my rocks..the only one i knew is the crystalline quartz and the tigers eye, the darker green one is beryl, the light green is aventurine which is good for calming anxiety and fears, the grey white one is either aquamarine or lace agate which is a soothing stone, and the dark blue is chrysocolla, i think.

Kalahari

OMG, we got so much snow in the Niagara region..school was cancelled today, so i was able to sleep in! The car is completely covered in snow and we are waiting for the snow removal guy to show up but im guessing that he is having problems on his end too. This winter sux! I want to be somewhere warm, is there any warm spots left on this planet?LOL. Anyways, i'm dreaming of walking in the Kalahari amongst the elephants.

5:02 p.m. - 2015-01-28
Govinda Jaya Jaya

I've been making dreadlocks & they look messy now.. I've re-did my computer desk with a paisley table runner, a green porcelain elephant that i got from Homesense, and minimized everything coz before it was too cluttered and i painstakingly took off the horrible yellow duck tape that was on it, i much prefers the original earthy look of the desk now. I also completed my hippie mood boards, pics will follow soon.

Hippie pouch necklace i got at an outdoor folk festival a while back.

7:43 p.m. - 2015-01-22
Incense & Peppermints

Here are the incense i got at the Earth shop, they were only $1.99 each. When i was buying my fav. scent patchouli, the girl there told me that her favourite scent is dragon's blood coz its sweet so i decided to try it out and wow it is now my favourite too!! I always get patchouli coz its been my fav. scent but now its changed. Also, these incense sticks burn for such a long time and my room smells amazing for days now! The scent isn't as strong as when i was burning it but it is lingering still in the air. Amazing!

6:10 p.m. - 2015-01-21
Rose Garden Mix

I'm at the point where i'm sick of winter and the cold, so I made a mixtape that makes me think of spring breezes, the scent of summer roses, going barefoot in the grass, the warm sun on my face when my eyes are closed, picking daisies and putting them in my hair, eating a strawberry popsicle, going on nature walks..

Unicorn

This is one of the grooviest things i found when we went to Burlington for the day..unicorn tote from Forever21. There was no snow when we got there..it was like spring was coming and we're only 30 minutes away! There were still amazing sales going on..most of the stuff i got is for my b-day..I got so many compliments on my hippie outfit :) Oh at Sephora's i got their foundation in porcelain..i've never tried this product before. Also i got a nail polish which was broken already & didn't know that until today so i have to return this at the Sephora here. Afterwards, we headed to Ikea for our usual fish n chippies and i really wish i had brought my camera coz some of the rooms were so 60s inspired and very colourful! and they had the most amazing Jaws (shark) plushies..OMG!! I was thinking of getting one. I ended up getting a cute unicorn pillow instead. Mostly got stuff for the kitchen like green stuff, a jar of orange and elderflower jam which i can't wait to try..and two plant print pillow covers for the living room.
By the time we left it was freezing arctic cold outside! Went to Fortino's and had the best chocolate meringue cakelets! And i've started drinking lots of Lipton green tea..its very healthy and has given me such energy especially before heading to school, i feel so much more awake coz during the holidays i felt so lazy and didn't do much. So if any of you feel tired a lot i really suggest green tea, it does the body lots of good and i've also started doing mantras, chakras, and yoga meditation to clear my mind.

my sweet Bobby elf kitty


My cat Bobby looks so adorable!!! Usually he hates anything being put on him but he seemed to be okay with this Christmas pom-pom collar, he let it stay on him for a few minutes until he started to get angry,lol. And of course i took it off of him and then he ran like a race horse through the whole house, he's quite a manic character.

4:14 p.m. - 2014-12-16
Don't Step On My Glitter Shoes!


tis the season to be sparkly! my new fav. silver glitter shoes with black ribbons that i got at Plato's Closet..they were $14.99..the only problem with these are that they were in the size 5 section and i thought they wouldn't fit but they looked bigger so i tried them on but i had thick socks on and i thought they fit perfectly, but when i brought them home and tried them on again without the thick socks, they are like a whopping size 8!!!!! they are way way too big for me and i checked the sizing inside the shoes and they are size 5, how can that be?? i might have to give them to a friend of mine who wears size 8 shoes or if not then i will have to keep wearing them with really thick socks.

Dinner In the Tower

Mom's b-day was Sunday so we had so much fun eating in the Skylon Tower revolving dining lounge where we could see the Horseshoe Falls all lit up in cotton candy colours + the giant ferris wheel which made us think we were at the Japanese Grand-Prix..the food was amazing..i had the Arctic Char with dill aoli sauce, soo yummy and mom had the filet mignon. And we shared a creme brulee which was amazing! I am super terrified of heights so yeah i nearly got sick on the ride up coz we ride up in those lifts that go outside of the building. I felt dizzy during the meal coz the revolving went a bit too fast. But it was fun tho. I didn't have time to devolp photos yet. I did get a great pic of the tower all lit up in fuschia and the disco dance floor looked like something out of "Suspiria".

I Walked With the Dinosaurs

Sunday, me and my friend Lily went to see the Dinosaurs at the Skylon Tower. The first section of the place was boring, it was just a bunch of dino bones and dino fossil heads and tiny replicas of dinos behind glass partitions. But, the other section we walked into was like being in "Jurassic Park", although the vegetation totally sucked, but the dinosaurs were moving and making noises, it was thrilling!! There was a huge pteradactyl hanging from the ceiling but that one didn't move. The T-Rex was the best part of the whole place.

Neil Young's In My Head
Stuff i got at the Legends Rock Shop: vinyl record player buttons (3 for $5, i already gave the comic book hero button to my friend Lily), mushroom patches, and a glitter butterfly magnet came from a Japanese anime shop, the stuff in there reminded me of the shops at Kensington Market, so much Hello Kitty stuff!
OMG, this horrendous heatwave sux at the beginning of school!! I just want to sit in a pool and do my homework from there, if we do get homework tomorrow, which would be stupid. And Neil Young's Heart of Gold has been in my head since hearing a guy play the song on his guitar at the Hard Rock. And i totally saw Rod Stewart's twin in the soda fountain place with spiky bleach blonde hair wearing tight metallic red pants and leopard print muscle shirt.

Kurtz

This place reminds me of Alice's debutante party in "Virgin Suicides" coz the water is so green. Maybe at night, green fog rolls out from there.

art farting
We went to look at the artwork from local artists, while i was staring at the other wall of paintings from quite a distance, a picture fell off the wall to the floor, that totally freaked me out!!!! Maybe it was Warhol's ghost, who knows. We had our usual pear tree flatbread pizza which is so freakin' good!! and i'm a huge fan of Italian soda, i had the swiss creme..yum! Went thrifting to Out of the Past. Been listening to Abbey Road & i love the song Octopus' Garden!! And how yummy is cherry 7up?!! I can only get that at That's Entertainment. They also carry Yahoo and all sorts of sodas i've never even heard of and tons of stuff from the US! Yay!! Been doing a lot of kundalini yoga lately to destresss myself..

fun at port colborne

It was tonz of fun being at Port Colborne for the Canal Days annual celebrations! It was a long drive to get there but thank you GPS coz otherwise we wouldn't have known where to go! We ate at the British Bakery Company..OMG!! the best ever cinammon buns which tasted more like cake..yummy!!!! and of course empire cookies! There were rock bands playing all over the place. I was disappointed at the one thriftshop they had there..i didn't find anything, there clothing was very limited, mostly knick knacks, kitchenware, and sports equipment. The Bargain Center was also disappointing coz whenever we've went before with my dad, there would always be something groovy to get there. People were super nice wherever shops we went into, they make you feel so much at home. There was a gigantic fish hot air creature that they were having a hard time getting off the ground so i didn't have time to actually take a pic of it. There was a dude driving a green pod car who looked exactly like a young Robert Plant!!!! OOOOOOOOH!!

What i got: moon print socks: dollarshop, psychedelic mushroom necklace: hippie shack vendor, Green stone ring: African vendor, small hippie mini bus: Candy Safari.

led zepp coin purse

Haven't been to the mall lately, so we went on the weekend and i found this awesome Led Zeppelin coin purse/keychain at Sunrise Records for only $3.99. Essence came out with a perfume collection and i got the purse size in "like best friends forever" which is the best scent and it actually lasts a very long time! I wanted to get the "Candy Shop" one but i didn't smell any scent there at all, the one i got smells like cotton candy. We were supposed to go to the beach today but its not warm enough..all summer so far has been cool and raining nearly every day! It really sux!! Yesterday me and Maria made flower crowns and hairclips and watched "Monterey Pop" online.
