-2 today!!

Holy Shizz, it was -2 this morning! It's supposed to be fall right now, but I think we're going to skip that and go straight to winter! I am sad to say that I brought out the mitts this morning... just thin ones, but seriously, I wore them last night at the arena (to watch the bf's hockey game) and they kept me super warm.

I think I'm going to try and enter a makeup contest on youtube, it's by Sharksbitoflife, and she's putting on a "Welcome to the Neighbourhood" contest, where you have to go out and take pictures of your street, or town, and then do a makeup look inspires by what you see... it's pretty interesing and I can't wait to give it a try! I'm really liking this youtube thing!!

It's a sad week in St Vital...

Well, I don't really know how to put into words how sad this past weekend has been. One of the community's greatest hockey coaches passed away on Friday night of a heart attack while on his way home.

Ron Smith was one of the nicest, most caring individuals I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I was fortunate enough to have played hockey with his daughter and to have him as my coach for several years. We always knew that Ron was there looking out for us whether it be hockey, or our every day lives. He helped both of my older brothers get jobs, and got them and my boyfriend out of trouble a few times while at those jobs! He was like a second hockey dad to me. He's touched a lot of people's hearts in Winnipeg and he will be dearly missed by all.

The funeral is tomorrow morning at 11:00am at the Westwood Community Church off Portage Avenue. It should be a packed house, so get there early if you would like to get a seat.

Rest in Peace Ron... we'll miss you and we all love you very much!

I'm on Youtube!!

Hey Everyone,

(Everyone meaning like two people)

I uploaded my first video to youtube last night! I actually ended up uploading 4 vids last night, just a cute one of some kittens I videotaped following my mom's hand at the pet store, and then one of Oscar (our big orange cat) getting high off catnip and acting super weird. Then I uploaded an old video of my brother's band playing at the Zoo, and one of local band Tele when I saw them at the Park Theatre back in March.

I'm thinking about starting to do makeup tutorials and stuff like that on youtube... we'll see how well I do. I actually just really want to get into editing videos and that sort of stuff, so I've been reading up on how to edit videos in iMovie. Any other suggestions for programs I should check out for Macs, please comment! I'm looking at you D!

Well, here's the youtube channel page if you're interested... I've got one subscriber already! LOL... saw the cute kitten video and hit subscribe I guess!

This is the next makeup idea that I am going to try... once I go out and get myself a new liquid eyeliner... actually, at the moment I don't really have a good pencil eyeliner either! Dollarama and Wal-Mart here I come! (PS. the dollarama 2-pack black eyeliners that come with sharpening caps are the best eyeliners I've had!)

Mustaches!!!


Here are some pictures from the party this weekend out at my cabin.  Below is a picture of a bunch of us playing the "Mushroom" drinking game.  You have to guess whether or not the card you are about to pick up is going to be black or red, and then if you get it wrong, you have to drink and then place the card (with at least two edges off of the stack) onto the beer bottle.  If you guess right, you get to make someone else do it.  AND... if you knock the pile off the beer bottle then you have to finish your whole drink.  Super fun... except when you have a shaky table and a bunch of people playing twister right beside you!

 It was my brother's birthday and he decided that he wanted to have a Mustache Party.  Also, to make sure that everyone followed the theme, he had a bowl of mustaches at the door and if you weren't wearing one you had to grab one out of the bowl! 
It was actually pretty fun, except for the fact that we had some pretty cheap mustaches on, so after about an hour, it would sweat underneath them and they'd start to fall off... throughout the night my mustache moved to my chin and turned into a beard... all in all, a good time though!  I loved my eyebrows lol.
And yes, I was also sporting a bowler hat to complete my Charlie Chaplin look!

SO MUCH FUN!!
