Life is a Mixed Bag of Chips

August 11, 2016LifeLeave a Comment

I love the business of the city, but I will be in the middle of nowhere this weekend to refresh my brain and release the anxious need to be doing 10 things all the time.

I don’t know if it’s the heat or whatever but I have been feeling so many different emotions this summer: anxiousness, happiness, sadness, nostalgia.

Part of not falling into a hole of depression is realizing that it’s ok to not be happy all the time. It’s like the movie Inside Out. Life is made out of all different thoughts, feelings and experiences that are ours alone.

Do you like it hot or cold?

It’s been 30 degrees and sunny for weeks now in Toronto. It’s like a furnace outside!

I think I am starting to think I am more of a winter person. How about you?

I needed some storage for my Beoplay H2 headphones so I decided to hit up Amazon. A lot of cases were over $50, but I did manage to find one for half the price by Geekria.

It came with a faux leather case and has a zipper pocket inside for all the wires.

My headphones fit perfectly!

What I ate at TIME Festival 2016

Yesterday was super hot but I still kicked myself out of the house and went to TIME Festival. Luckily, I found this Chill booth and had some pink lemonade.

I arrived super hungry for lunch and hit up the Street Bistro truck, one I haven’t previously been at!

DSCF2302

For $10, I ordered two fish tacos. Although they were tasty, I thought the portions were too small for the price. It was like two bites of food!

All day I was tempted by the smell of this BBQ stand so I couldn’t resist an early dinner.

DSCF2342

For $11, the portions were much larger than the tacos. I received a chicken thigh, rice, beans and salad. This was definitely worth the festival price. Not to mention the chicken was juicy and delicious.

By now, I have eaten almost all the food trucks at festivals but I’ll continue to be on the lookout for more and let you guys know if they are worth the price!

Random Photos From Sackville

I’m already missing the East coast! It was so relaxing to be away from a busy city. Our first day there, my friend took us to cottages near Shediac, NB.

There we visited local shop Tony’s for pizza and icecream.

DSCF2142

I was too excited to realize my photo of Donair pizza was blurry. I could eat Donairs for every meal!

DSCF2144 I had a giant scoop of cookie dough ice cream.

In Sackville for Sappyfest, I stayed at Mount Allison University dorms. It reminded me of when I was a student in Toronto. The dorms were nice and clean.

My best friend also came up for a visit on the Saturday with her newborn baby.

DSCF2222

We had classic burgers at Mel’s Tea Room, a place that has been there for over 97 years.

This darling thought her foot was just as delicious.

Isn’t she so cute?

I Saw Ghostbusters Today!

ghostbusters

I finally saw the new Ghostbusters movie and I thought it was a lot of fun. I stayed away from most movie reviews because they were mostly negative for sexist reasons. I liked the role-reversal and strong female leads.

I found the movie funny and cheesy, which is exactly what the original Ghostbusters was. If you take movies too seriously, you wouldn’t have liked the original movie either. Also does anyone remember 1989’s Ghostbusters II? That movie was legitimately terrible!
