a very very very fine house

This post is all about where I'm moving come August. To those who are wondering, my school is called Lasalle College of design. The city I'm living in is New Westminster which is 30 minutes by skytrain from downtown. A few things about my walk around New West today:

-People seem to really really like pink vehicles.



This last photo was what happened when I attempted to snap a lady RIDING A BUBBLEGUM PINK VESPA WEARING A FULL BUBBLEGUM PINK GETUP COMPLETE WITH A GLOSSY PINK HELMET. I miss that lady. A girl after my own heart.

-Mannequins seem to be more ~crazy in love~ here than in any other window display in Winnipeg.


-Artichokes seem to be for decoration only.


-Class seems to be in abundance.
"I owe a lot to BC pot"

So there you have it. I also took a little video tour of the condo for my friends/family in Winnipeg but I'll post it here too because it's REALLY REALLY WELL DONE. Just kidding.


if you find that I'm speaking reeeeeaaaaaaally slowly, it's not because I owe a lot to BC pot, I was just concentrating REALLY hard.

please 2 b giving me luv

HI HI HI HI HI HI

Yesterday was a really good day of the trip, my dad and I got up early and took the skytrain downtown to Granville street! We went in Holt Renfrew and I saw the most beautiful Miu Miu bags :'(
My dad wants to get a bigger murse and he was scoping out the Gucci and I was like "Dad plz, do you know how much those cost? You can't even afford to look at Gucci with your eyes."
THEN we went to my school (or soon to be in the fall) for a TOUR. And can I just say I'm so excited? Can I? Look at this sweet set up on one of the floors of the school (plus, it's a block away from H&M...HELLO)

Check it


Safe to say I'm really looking forward to it.

Then we went and got some lunch and my dad set me free to go to Urban Outfitters and H&M. I had a really nerdy photoshoot (or the taking of 1 picture) in the Urban Outfitters dressing room to show Andrew the shirt I bought for him. EVERYTHING WAS LIKE $10!



SORRY BUT I WORE A DRESS THAT DAY AND DIDN'T HAVE PANTS.

this is how we do in the xr2

SO I have arrived in Vancouver aka Van aka Vancity. Did you know there's a credit union here called "Vancity" ? I'm going to open a credit union and call it CASH MONEY.

Anyway, my cab came like 2 minutes late to pick me up from home with all my bags so I was late-ish to the airport (but really I kind of planned to arrive when I did, I didn't think it was late) and when I got there the guy checking me in was like "omg I love your dress, it's so summery" (it's this ferocious vintage dress) and I was like "thanks!" and handed him my boarding pass. Then we went from best friends to worst enemies, he gave me the DIRTIEST look and was like "YOU'RE LATE I'M PUTTING LATE TAGS ON YOUR BAGS AND IF THEY DON'T GET TO VANCOUVER WHEN YOU DO IT'S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO RETERIEVE THEM! NOW RUN!" hahaha so I half-ran to security then I was like fuck this I'm not late. And guess what, I totally WASN'T LATE.
But look at what my frenemie put on my bags:



LOL my call-name was retard for the rest of the day.

Here I am taking a bathroom airplane photo as per tradition. I had to sit beside a creepy/rude businessman who kept staring at my tits and being REALLY ANGRY when I had to get up and use the bathroom. Rude.



After this was taken I had the 1 true embarrassing moment of my life (to be honest I've never had like a REALLY EMBARRASSING moment I don't think but here it is) I was walking back to my seat and my skirt was tucked in my underwear :'( The flight attendant rushed up to whisper it in my ear and I was like OMGGGGGGGGGGGG

ALSO: When I arrived at the airport I found that my dad now possesses a murse. I will not stop ridiculing him and calling him murseman. Evidence of geekdom:



but omg I love him. Dad if you're reading this I LOVE YOU and will still be seen with you at Urban Outfitters and H&M today EVEN WITH YOUR MURSE.

more to come laterz

no diggity

Meet Gregg Gillis:

Homeboy must know a LOT about music. You can tell because he can mash up Tiny Dancer and Biggie Smalls' Juicy and make it a dance party to remember. You can tell because he can put the Cure's In Between Days and Crank That (Soulja Boy) together and not have people crying "BLASPHEMY". Beat matching like a champ, Gregg Gillis fronts Girl Talk. To speak more literally he's the only guy in Girl Talk.

I'm not going to insult your intelligence and street cred as much as to assume you don't know Girl Talk. I am however going to risk insulting you a little bit (assuming you're aware of this) to tell you that

Girl Talk has a new album out called Feed The Animals and our friend Gregg Gillis and Illegal Art want you to name your price for the download.


That's right, like Radiohead's latest album In Rainbows you can pay $0 or more dollars for it. I know people who have paid for both of these albums so I don't know if I subscribe to the idea that "people will not pay if not required". To be frank, I paid $0.00 for the download because I can't afford music. I don't think music should be a commodity but if I hear somebody doing something good, I'll support them. I can't tell you if I'll buy Girl Talk's new album Feed The Animals when it becomes available in record stores but I can tell you there's a possibility. For now though, I'm enjoying it on the house. REALLY enjoying it.

Go download it, and be fair when you name your price. Not that I'm one to talk.

ps. my favourite track has to be "Set It Off" where he samples Jay-Z's Roc Boys over the intro to Radiohead's Paranoid Android. Pure magic.
