When I last updated you guys on my room at my mom's, it was in this post. Well, I've made a few changes since, and I think this is as close to done as it'll ever get. And you know what? I like it. For my workspace, I got my desk from Ikea during their … Continue reading Room Makeover: A Personal Touch
Outfit of the Week: BossLady
They say you gotta dress for the job you want, so when I went to the job fair that ended up leading to my new job, I took that to heart. This is what I wore: That's me trying really hard to look good with all my makeup rubbed off from the course of the … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: BossLady
An Acting Weekend
I've had a busy weekend. First of all, you should know I got a job. It's a part-time thing and it came in the nick of time, according to my bank account. I don't know what this means for the acting thing. At first I thought it meant I'd just have to quit acting, since … Continue reading An Acting Weekend
A Day in Kananaskis
I've gotta say, filming vlogs every day for my month in Vietnam last summer was one of the best things I could have done in order to learn vlogging and figure out my new camera. On Saturday my dad and I went to Kananaskis for a little day trip. My camera skills have improved greatly … Continue reading A Day in Kananaskis
The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue
That's a really long title. This is a really long post. It was going to be a book review but it turned into more of a book report. You've been warned. I recently finished The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee. It's a YA historical adventure fiction story, but written with modern-style prose … Continue reading The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue
A Secret Project
I got super lucky in January in terms of roles. I managed to worm my way into four short films, two as the lead, one bit part and one background. But apparently that wasn't enough for me, because I wanted to make a short film. If you've been around very long, you may remember SIV, … Continue reading A Secret Project
Reading Goals
via Reading Goals It's a bit late for announcing the year's reading goals, I realize, but I only came up with mine TODAY so actually, they're quite prompt in the grand scheme. When people talk reading goals, their first goal is always a numbered one. How many books are they planning to read per week, … Continue reading Reading Goals
A Good Kind of Busy?
I was going to quit acting in November. Well, I was supposed to quit this time last year. If you remember, in 2017 I quit my job for unrelated reasons and decided that, while I was young and free of much responsibility, I would go after my dream of being an actress...for one year. After … Continue reading A Good Kind of Busy?
Montreal Lox Bagel
If you've been around long enough to remember my trip to Montreal in 2017 (or click here if you haven't), you might remember me raving about the bagels I had at a Montreal bagel institution. I went there twice for bagels over the course of my trip, once to sit in, once to go, because … Continue reading Montreal Lox Bagel
The Marrow Thieves
The Marrow Thieves by Cherie Dimaline has been marketed as dystopian—which it is, taking place in a future Canada ravaged by global warming where people have lost the ability to dream—but I found it to be just as much, if not more, of a coming-of-age story. Our protagonist is sixteen-year-old Frenchie, aka French or Francis, … Continue reading The Marrow Thieves
