Sunday Link Love: July 10, 2011
This has been a great weekend so far, filled with a lot of fun things to do – because my sister is in town! Friday night, we headed out for sushi with my cousin and her boyfriend. Then yesterday we hit up Café Medina for brunch with a few friends, hung out downtown, and then headed to the NKOTBSB concert (which was amazing).
Today, I’m headed to the MEC Paddlefest today to check things out and combine a little work with play. It should be a good time. Send me a tweet if you happen to be at the event too! :)
Talent Egg: Top Canadian Personal Finance Blogs For Students & Recent Grads
A few months ago I was interviewed for this article about how students can use their money successfully and have a bright future (with minimal debt). Well, it’s finally up! A shout out to Vicky Tobianah for writing a great piece.
We all know how hard it can be to try and find a decent job sometimes, and Talent Egg is an amazing resource for 20-somethings to help find meaningful entry-level careers, summer jobs, or internships and co-op opportunities with some of Canada’s top employers. I wish I had a resource like that when I was in my early 20′s.
Props to Million Dollar Journey, Young & Thrifty, and Fabulously Broke who were also featured. :)
First World Problems
I literally cannot stop watching this video.
Around the blogosphere
- My girl Cassie wrote about the sleazy tactics of car salesmen.
- Fabulously Broke updates us on her summer so far. Her summer would be way better if she came to Vancouver to see me, since she always seems to be conveniently “out of town” whenever I’m in Toronto.
- Jenn reviews her 2011 goals and lets us know how she’s doing.
- Maisie Vanriel, the new Moneyville blogger, writes about how she rarely buys butter on sale – which is arguably one of the most controversial posts to ever be published on that website! It also unofficially wins the title for meanest comments in a Moneyville blog post too. Yikes.
- Alison Griffiths asks: do celebrities get better service?

My recent post 2011 Goals: Q2 Review
It's such an honour to be featured along side you, FB, and Million Dollar Journey! Thanks Vicky for writing a great piece.
I LOVE Nutella. But I can't bring myself to fork up $5 for a cupcake at Cupcakes. Even if it had nutella on it. Heck, I can buy a whole jar of nutella and eat it by itself for $5. heheh… :)
Oh yeah, I was driving through DT that night and was confused at why there were so many women on the streets looking deliriously happy. Then I realized it was the NKOTBBSB concert!
My recent post Weekend Ramblings and PF Blog Love: I can’t do it all!
Thank you for the shout out Krystal! :D I really appreciate it.
Thank you kindly ;) I think it's awesome!
My recent post Living like poor millionaires
I adore that video! That kid is wise beyond his years.
