Give Me Back My Five Bucks

I need to buy a vacuum. I’ve tried just borrowing BF’s, but his is an industrial vacuum and it’s big and clunky and doesn’t work for cleaning carpets. It’s meant for a workshop. So. I need to buy my own. I have one of those broom vacs, and it sucks. What I want is a good quality vacuum; one that will last me for a while. I want to spend under $200, and after looking around at the different models at London Drugs, Wal-Mart and Costco, I think I can get one for my price range. I know to get … Continue reading →

Tonight BF and I are probably going to a show. I’m excited because I’ve only heard this band once (his friends), but I really liked them. Well, I liked them a lot more than the other bands his friends are in. As you know, my New Year’s resolution was to try and not be so shy, so I’m going to work on that. It’s hard though, to go outside of my comfort zone. I ran into one of BF’s friends downtown the other day, and we chatted for 10-15 min, and I felt totally awkward because really, what do we … Continue reading →

Okay, so last night I went to see Confessions of a Shopaholic. I didn’t have high expectations because I knew that the movie was nothing like the book. But still, I couldn’t help but be a little disappointed. The entire plot was different. It was NOTHING like the book, except for the character names and the fact that Rebecca liked to shop. I don’t want to say what the main plot differences were b/c I don’t want to spoil the movie for whoever hasn’t seen it. But prepared to say “that didn’t happen in the book!” a lot during the … Continue reading →

I just bought 10 bus tickets for $19 at London Drugs. So instead of it costing $2.50 for the bus each time (1 zone), I am now paying $1.90. Tonight I’m going to see Confessions of a Shopaholic tonight with a friend. I have a free movie ticket, and I just bought bus tickets … so all I have to worry about is dinner. We are going to eat in the food court because it’s cheaper than a restaurant. I’ll probably grab a cheap bowl of noodles or a Subway sub of the day. I’m a little nervous about this … Continue reading →

I hate hate HATE wearing nylons. No, wait. I like wearing nylons. I LOVE wearing nylons because they make my legs look sooooo much better. But I HATE buying them. They’re such a rip off! And they get runs in them so easily. Whoops, you touched the corner of the desk with your legs? THERE’S A RUN! Oh no, your ring finger brushed up against your knee? THERE’S ANOTHER RUN! It’s not fair!!! You pay $6-8 for a good pair, and what … they last 5 or 6 wears if you’re careful? That’s why I was so glad winter came, … Continue reading →
