Hey everyone,

Sorry for the lack of updates. I update/well just reblog my tumblr more than blogger, mainly because tumblr is just clicking buttons, and requires little to no typing or thinking about what to write.

So I have decided that I will actually be committing to a fitness routine and diet, in attempts to lose weight. I have wanted to lose weight for a long time now, but life has always gotten in the way. life and laziness, let's just be honest.

From now on, some posts on theeverydayhaute will be food/diet/exercise related.

HEADS UP & WATCH OUT.

Bucket List

  • learn to speak french
  • learn to longboard
  • learn to surf
  • visit spain again
  • visit italy again
  • visit hawaii again
  • grow a garden (without my dad's help)
  • live in a house with a pool
  • own a dog
  • own a summer house somewhere tropical/hot
  • see celine dion in concert
  • see beyonce in concert
will add more when i think of shit.

Teal Crazy


Just painted my nails for Hawaii. I normally hate cold colors on my nails, but the only other nail polish i have at home, is some shitty american apparel nail polish that applies on thick and gross, and this hot pink glossy polish, which i would normally use... but my sister already used it and i dont wanna match (lolz). Also, i was too lazy to walk my ass downstairs to see whatever else my mom had.

The only closest nail color in my range of motion was this Teal colored "nail lacquer" by Aldo.

Only moments later did i notice that another item in my range of motion, a sharpie, was the same color.

photobooth to prove it.

Holy Fuck.

It's Saturday! Well, it's only been Saturday technically for 46 minutes, but still.

Today I decided to pick up a shift at Bikini Village, but at another mall. The manager there needed an extra girl to cover for her, since it is her 28th wedding anniversary. Being as I would have probably wasted my day procrastinating on cleaning, procrastinating on packing, and napping... i decided whatever it's money. I can use the extra 40 dollars or whatever to buy some pad thai at the mall whenever.

OMG you guys, I leave for Hawaii on Monday. MONDAY. MONDAY. By 3pm Monday, I will be on the beach in Hawaii. It's gon' be amazinnnnn.

Embarrassing true story: I just finished trying on the bathing suits I will be bringing to Hawaii... not only trying them on, but also PRACTICING POSING, for when I take pictures in them. I will probably pass out from trying to suck it in. At work today my coworker was showing me tips on how to pose and making your stomach look flat, so i will def be stealing that posture from her.

I really need to get to cleaning my room before i leave. I will probably do that either this morning, or sometime after work. AHHH SO EXCITEDDDDD.

This picture was taken probably last year, I have added a few more bathing suits since then, but you get the idea.

Hey Y'all


Currently listening to 90's music, and covers of 90's music.

Today as a whole was pretty uneventful. It was mostly recovering from the night last night/early this morning.

The BV gurlz decided to have a party. It consisted of a lot of vodka, a lot of tequila, a lot of lemons, and chic hor d'oeuvres (spinach and feta, mushroom, cheese and onion pastries). Getting loopy and getting crazy.

Backyard Shenannigans with Cuban cigarettes

A tired Me and a tired Cappy!

Currently Playing: S Club 7 - Never Had A Dream Come True



IF U WANNA BUMP. LEZ GO.

Happy Birthday Aimee!


This August 11th, was my beautiful cousin Aimee's (White Top) 23rd birthday! To celebrate, this weekend me and my cousins went out to Lula Lounge in Toronto.

It wasnt exactly my scene (it was pure bboys having break dancing battles), so I left early... but at least we got a good photo out of it!

Put A Ring On It


LOL JK. Just showing off my latest nail color. It's a lavender shade by American Apparel. Trying out this whole pastel color trend. It's alright. I think I'd rather stick with my hot-barbie pinks, reds, and purples.

Also notice my Camp Rock/Joe Jonas Tee. STYLIN-ON-YOU!

I Can Tell We Can We Are Going To Be Friends



This song is supposed to be happy, but all it makes me want to do is cry.

am i still ill?

Hi everyone (realistically 2 or 3 of you), sorry for the lack of updates.

I've been wanting to post something a little more sentimental and "meaningful".. but as i type it up, i just erase it and plan to write in in my moleskine, but i never do, because i have this weird mental thing where i believe writing it in ink makes it more permanent.

currently i am just reflecting on how in these past 2 years, i have lost many friends, gained many friends and perhaps made a few enemies.

As of late, life has been throwing wrenches in the pot, by allowing me to have really awkward run ins with people of my past, and i dont know if the big man/woman upstairs is trying to taunt me, test me, or tell me something.

I have taken the past 2 years and became my own person, independent of these people who i have left behind. I am grown accustomed to their absence, from my life, that often times, the only time i miss or have any sort of feeling toward them is when i remember that they exist.

It is unfair, because although i do feel badly that i have not salvaged these friendships, i cannot imagine us being friends as we once were. the circumstances are different, there are biases against me, and in the back of their minds, i know they are thinking ill of me. I tried once, but it was too hard, and frankly I didnt want to put in the effort. Not saying they are not worth it, I just didnt want to try. I expected them to try, but they didnt. Maybe thats my downfall.

Now I am doing my own thing, i have found myself, and have found happiness in who i am, and where i am. At this point, I'm letting go, just as i had to previously, and letting the chips fall where they may. I am not opposed to the idea of becoming friends with these people again... but i am weary... not enough time has past.

Until then, i will focus on the present, focus on those who i am blessed to have in my life right now, and most importantly focus on myself, and my own well being, and everything will end out alright.
