Tiramisu

It's quite funny actually. While enjoying a heavenly slice of tiramisu cake this morning, (yes, I eat cake in the morning) I thought about men; their general character, to be more precise. Like a tiramisu cake covered with bitter coco on top, their exterior can often be described as dark and brooding. But, after digging in to the deeper layers, one discovers a sweeter, lighter filling.

I was browsing the Forever XXI Canada site, because i cannot wait until the store opens at Vaughan Mills and i was pleasantly surprised with what i found:

Too much free time

There is always a bad side next to the good one of a situation. Although i absolutely LOVE traveling, i have been in and out of the country so often, that i have been unable to secure a full time or even a part time job. I mean, i do work at a club on Saturdays, but that is a mere 5 hours a week. In the last 8 months i have been to Miami for a week, Dominican Republic also for a week, Florida for 2 weeks, and i am leaving to South Carolina for another week in 6 days. No matter how much fun and adventure this summer has seen, i still feel a little inadequate, working wise. Perhaps, it is because i am just bored to not be constantly busy and sleep deprived, as i am used to, since i have been working almost full time for 4 years while attending university full time as well. I guess i should just enjoy my time off while i have it. Silly me.

Want what you can't have.

Would you settle for the bad boy who will not cuddle you after a very fun night in bed, on the floor, against the window overlooking central downtown, on the balcony, and the list goes on? Or, for the good boy who will make you feel safe, secure, and cuddle you while his arm falls asleep because of the weight of your head on it? And, is there such a person that has both of these combined, bad and good boy characteristics that i find myself bouncing from and to every changing day? Having both of these men in my life, it is that much more difficult to stick to one and ignore the other completely, especially on those days when you need a certain one more. Last night, for instance, it was the bad boy, being very good at being bad, and even making me stay over the whole night, which i would have if the snoring was tolerable. Tomorrow night it will be the good boy, sweeping me off my feet with flowers and picking me up all dressed up for a night out on the town, filled with dining and dancing. With the good boy you can be your self, more or less, and talk about your feelings, families, and friends. With the bad boy, the less talking the better. Firstly, to save precious time that can be spent on pleasures you both crave a little too much, and secondly, because he does not have much interesting to say, or anything you would want to actually listen to with genuine enthusiasm. Oh the decisions, the decisions to be made. I wish i could keep them both, without any contracts, any long term fees and consequences. Unfortunately, life is not as peachy as we would all like it to be, and me having both of them in my life in such an intimate way, is not healthy, mostly for me, since they do not know the other exists.

Needless to say, a decision must be made ladies and gentlemen. Any suggestions?

MK and A Olsen Update

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are launching their Men's Collection for Elizabeth and James!
Oh and it looks amazing! I have decided that I will dress up my b/f, lover, or and, guy friends in Elizabeth and James, without a doubt! :)

Man's best friend...woman's, I beg to differ,

"You and my dog are the only two people I say I love you to." This still sends shivers down my spine. Men and their dogs. It was love at first bark. They obey, listen quietly, sit, give paw, roll over, and play dead, all on command without asking questions of second guessing.
Men with dogs whom they absolutely adore should be looked upon with suspicion. Trust me, I know what I am talking about. The more men I date the more reassured I become of my little thesis here: If a man talks to his dog as if it were a baby, and if he talks or compares the love he has for his dog with the feelings he has for you, well, to put it plainly and blatantly, do not expect a happily ever after with this person, unless you also can joyfully roll over and play dead on command.
If a man is completely infatuated and in love with his dog, and you come into his life and expect him to love you as well...well, you will have a lot to live up to. Because, you probably do have an opinion and will question certain things that he will not want to answer or think about.

Just a little something to think about.

When love throws u questions....go Fashion!

If love is realizing that you can not live without a person, what happens when you are not together anymore and you realize that you are still alive? *gasp* Does it mean that you never loved them in the first place?
But then, what should those of us who believe they have loved expect? To fall dead, or be so completely heart broken that we lose the will to be happy and move on with our lives? Is this not what fairy tales gone bad are made of?
When you are in a relationship with someone and they make you so happy that you tell yourself you will not be able to live without them because they almost make your life what it is, how do you go on after you two are not together? Especially when you realize that you can breathe and obviously live without this person just fine? Does this mean you never loved them in the first place, even though you were so sure this was the real deal when you two were together? Were you a fool in love? Or, were you just fooled that what you had was love?
Please don't hesitate to leave your opinions, they are greatly appreciated :)

NOW!!! Onto more fun things that do not involve me scratching my head and thinking where I went wrong...
If you are in the mood to wear something simple, defined, and classic, go to Lauren Conrad. (Spring 2009 collection below)

This dress is perfection. The cut, the lenght, the colour. Pure love.
This is what you call "super cute" but it is too short I think, except for the beach of course.
Gorgeous classic dress! Love the navy colour, the cut, and the scoop at the top.

However, if you are in the mood for something edgy, extra, shiny, new, and striped, go to Dolce and Gabbana. (Spring 2009 collection below)


Amazing top...don't know a lot of people who could easily pull off those pants, they look pretty tricky.
Love the high waisted shorts!
This dress screams extra to me!!!
Love classic white and black combo, the striped bring something new to the table.
