I wanted to roll a copy of yesterday’s paper up into a tight newsprint boomerang and whip it at the head of Adam Giambrone, Kristen Lucas and maybe Sarah McQuarrie (I haven’t decided yet, but if she were around she’d get it just cause). Who are these targeted victims of the Goddesses’ wrath you ask?
Exhibit A: Giambrone is one of Toronto’s 2010 Mayoral candidates,
Exhibit B: McQuarrie is Giambrone’s long time partner (ride or die woman)
Exhibit C: Kristen Lucas Giambrone’s 20 year old fresh outta sweet valley high on the side …

I’m up a little too early on a Sunday but that’s all good, I’m excited! I’m single on a day that celebrates love and togetherness, but coincidentally I’m also single on Chinese New Years which according to tradition is a good thing, because single folks do not have to give out red envelopes with money- MO MONEY MO MONEY MO MONEY. Side note: I am part Chinese, I don’t just play one on TV. Thanks.
Ok so I’ve been M.I.A this week, well that’s because I’ve been living in my cubicle …

This weekend your girl went to church for the first time since 199_, yea, I know a looong time. Ok, that’s not completely accurate, I’ve been to church in the new millennium but more as a representative of myself, than by will. See I don’t count showing face at Christmas or for a baptism or funeral as attending church, just cause most of the time your mind is focused on the celebratory aspect of the service than the actual purpose of attending church- to serve the Lord.I am not the …

I was chatting with the author of the blog Sunday Musings and she directed my attention to an article in the Toronto Star titled “Meet Toronto Girls with New York City Dreams”. She instantly thought of me and my ambitious ants in the pants self, as my addiction to New York is only increasing as the days pass-smh. For those who read my last post- Yes, Sunday Musings is aiding my addiction *winks*
I read the article hoping to get some inspiration, but my smile morphed into grinch lips as I …

Goals & Remaining focused
Hey y’all I just thought I’d drop in and make sure everyone is doing ok. Are we living up to those New Years resolutions? Did we make any? I have to give a shout out to Ms.Grant who made me write down three new years resolutions and post them on my refrigerator prior to the New Year. Since then I’ve been relentlessly working towards making them happen. Who knew that having the visual of my goals meshed into my daily routine would play a big part in …

For the third year in a row I’ve been helping out during the holidays at the Yonge Street Mission, a Christian based non-profit organization helping under privileged families in Toronto since 1896. My experience volunteering at YSM is always enriching and lots of fun. You’re always treated with respect and shown love by the staff and the program participants. Every year I’ve helped out with a different activity, this week I happened to help out with the Toy Market, which is basically a toy store (donation based and free of …

Today I deleted my twitter account. I set myself free of one of the most distracting social networking sites for a writer. It wasn’t easy to do. I generally like all of my twitter fam, we have mini discussions, share clever quotes , jokes and I’ll throw parties some nights. Parties? It’s a bit on the pathetic side I know, but It kept me entertained.
Last night I began to weigh the pros and cons of being on twitter and found that my productivity (in life) has decreased, due to trending …

I finally got a chance to read more of my book club selection The Art of Seduction by Robert Greene. Today I just had to go in on the topic of Anti-Seducers. I think that recognizing an anti-seducer is equally as important as recognizing types of seducers. Greene writes that we all have anti-seductive qualities in our personalities that are brought out by our insecurities. The difference between a chronic anti-seducer and common man is that they fail to work past these insecurities to the point where they are oblivious …

Hi again, so lots going on in this world today boy! I woke up this morning to the news which has turned into nothing more than a listing of natural disasters and a bunch of lies from the government for me. I usually never tune into the news unless I need to know the weather, but as a blogger, writer and high-heel wearing superhero it’s important for me to keep up to date with current events. News recently broke that former Miss Argentina and supermodel Solange Magnano died from complications …

Admin Note: This year has been paramount for Domestic Violence. With the recent incident surrounding Tiger Woods and wife Erin Nordegren(she kept her name? gangsta!) I just thought I’d break out my Negradamous prediction from May on SH Collective blog, where I officially declared 2009, the year of Domestic Violence. I mean I don’t think this is something to brag about, its embarassing really. I’ve shared my own story of relationship violence, and through the posts Ive learned a lot about our attitudes towards the different genders when it comes …
