bbq + birthday cake + soca jam  = fun times :D
p.s. i thought i was over desserts.. clearly im not n everyone knows about it lol :(

my boyfriend has good taste*


NO-that asterix is not a disclaimer :P  the above statement is true in all situations...esp. when it comes to women and shoes! hehe.. love for chuck taylors (if only they were more comfortable agh!).  but comfort aside, when u put on a pair of chucks, a vibe washes over you.. fun, spunky, free-spirited.. its like ur in highschool all over again :D   i think 2 definitions from urban dictionary say it best: 

a) The illest shoe ever made;

b) Wearing them does not make you a poser. ITS A PAIR OF FUCKING SHOES.
Idiot: You wearing chucks?
Guy wearing Chuck Taylors: Yeh
Idiot: YOU POSER

LoL.  for those of you who do love chucks, here is a SICK tumblr dedicated to the shoe: http://www.chuckedtaylors.com/ ... my pair are on the site somewhere ;)

my new anthem.. for the week ;)

this is an über workout/commuting tune :D

► dj got us falling in love again (usher featuring pitbull): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBhj-Tv4WHI

sorry for all y'all who know this song already!  but i just discovered it and am lovingggg it (give it a few days until i play it on repeat a million times!)

this song makes me wanna:
- go for a run
- dance around my room
- be über

- take the TTC and not be THAT grumpy :P

she had me at hello...*

 i <3 Renee Zellweger

okay.. many of you may not agree with my love for this lady... but i've got to admit i think there is something so amazing about her!  her style is chic and effortless.  she doesn't bother with a lot of accessories or makeup.. she's more about basic clothing, solid colours and mixing it up by wearing different shapes and killer heels (when she's not wearing her runners). that brings me to my next point, which is her incredibly athletic body!  sometimes i think being healthy and fit will always be *in style*, bc it definitely shows when you're comfortable in your own skin and really proud of the time/effort you've put into exercising your buttocks off! :-) this applies 2 ppl of all shapes/sizes.. bc i personally believe alot of it is how u feel on the inside..knowing uve treated urself and ur body well.

question relating to the center picture.. i wonder how people percieve the need to change hair styles/colours really frequently?  i love to do it, and i know some other ppl who do.  is this a sign of insecurity?  or just boredom...  if u see me with blonde hair next week.. i mite have figured it out.. or maybe i just don't care and will keep changing it anyway :D

ok last thing about renee.. love her most recent short bowl haircut?? who does that.. very few people can pull it off.  AND.. the various pairs of über shades she owns:

 



oh the perks of being a celebrity... *ive really goT to get me a paiR of tortoise shell glasses :( * 

p.s. running rocks :)  especially when done in style.

♦◊ lady GaGa ɱonsters ball ◊♦


hi all.. (I feel like i'm writing an email for work) lol.  so i've been taking some people's suggestions about my blog.. i put up some tunes as requested.  divyan and tejal mentioned they'd want to see more expression through words.. so here i am.  i thought what better occasion then gaga.. the experience.. I can give my 2 cents on the concert which was on monday nite :D (seems like it was so long ago).

so my seats weren't great which I originally wasn't too fussed about.. but I realized the energy was much higher closer to the stage.  sure you can go to a concert and enjoy the music but it's just not as intense.. at least for this type of show.  So I didn't get any amazingly groovy crazy shots of ms.gaga
:( sorry guys.. anyway, let's just say there were points where her crotch was on fire (shooting out sparks?) and where she was wearing random costumes made of hair or yarn lol.. and she also played the piano with her foot for a bit.. (coo coo coo coo).. yeah she is a crazy one! 

can i just say though that she has an amazing amazing voice!!  she is awesome live.. and i really respect her for that.  she sang her new song You and I (which she wrote) while playing the piano.. I found a link of a video of her singing it at the montreal concert here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWmgZowpIWE&feature=related

 .. it's different .. more rock n roll.. neeru and I really liked it.  i love that she is so smart. and strategic,in the sense that she created a platform for herself by coming out with songs like *Just Dance* and *Poker Face* which appeal to a large audience and now that she has this huge fan base she can truly sing/write and do whatever the hell she wants!  lady gaga=dance, house, disco, pop, rock, electro.. and the list goes on.  maybe in this day and age being able to adapt and transform yourself is the key to being successful...?

so the show itself was pretty good.  I think with better seats I might have enjoyed it even more.  one thing I noted was that she is very very EXTREME.  she meshes controversial themes like sex, love, drugs, vanity, fame with younger themes like monsters, horror, glitz, glam.  she has an obbsession with monsters, and kept saying to put your paws up.. lol:
so obviously we did comply.. lol it's lady gaga so we had to listen :P  her obbsession with blood and guts and monsters .. it is weird.. but i think her mission is to show the world that ugly can be beautiful or that.. maybe we shouldn't be afraid of things that are seen as bad, crazy or weird in society, even yarn outfits, flaming bras and face wraps :S lol  O and she did mention how she supports the lesbian gay bisexual transgendered community.  she really loves the gays! and they love her.  Now don't get me wrong i'm all for the gays BUT i mean what about the str8 people?. she shouldn't leave them out lol... represent for all no?

ok last thing..before/after the concert we saw some impersonators. some bad. some really bad (epic fails according to neeru).. what do you think?



i think they did alright!! but as neeru would say (ANWS lol):  gaga is imitated but never duplicated~
and i guess thats the whole point of her message: be yourself.. as crazy as that person mite be ! 

okay this post is SO long.. happeeeeeeee tejal and divyan?  my guts, blood, sweat, tears and soul ... all right here in my blog. 

thanks for reading you little monsters .. now show me ur teeth.  X

you make me...

okay so once an anonymous person aka boyfriend textd me saying: you make me {dot dot dot} and went on to list every potential emoticon/smiley in his phone that he could find :|  lol. LOL. hmm...

how does one respond to this? :) :( :S :D :O :P :'( :X :|

it's saturday night and pink is in !



i love lipstick ♥!  my sis and i got ready together last night (for 2 different birthday bashes) and ended up both wearing bright dresses with pink lipstick  .. she was wearing MAC A10 girl about town (a bright fuscia) and I was wearing MAC A44 scanty (barbie pinkish) :D  i love the intense colours, not to mention sister bondage over makeup *much needed*

let's remix a remix.

► yves larock - rise up (violin remix): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Xra42vC9NM
~ this is for you neeru.. lol.  riseup/barking frog mashup with mohabbatein violins..loves it.

I never saw an ugly thing in my life: for let the form of an object be what it may, - light, shade, and perspective will always make it beautiful ~ John Constable


...okay. the first thing i love about this is that it's the same picture.. just edited differently.  one is dark.. and one is light.. kind of like how people see things and situations differently... [perspective] i guess ? hmmmm... I was just playing around with my camera and I remember my friend preeti once said.. "my camera is like my eye".  I was thinking the same thing...   

this picture reminds me of lady gaga too :$  .. she covers her eyes a lot randomly..  and there are also some shots of her with a Nikon SLR when she decided to snap back at the paparazzi :P ..  FYI.. she recently became a creative director at Polaroid (owned by Nikon) which I think is sick.  she is transcending many barriers and becoming an icon in various industries..fashion, music, photography etc.  *unstoppable*

p.s. I totally need a SLR camera soon... mom ? :)  anyone?   X.

GAGA CONCERT TOMORROW ♫♥



Okay.. let's just say I was feeling a little bit "uninspired" this week..or at least less than usual... although I wanted to blog anyway as I think a weekly update is important. I think the problem was that I forgot my camera at home this wknd :( and I ended up at the coolest art exhibit at Nathan Phillips Sq. on Saturday. It was amazing and incredible but I kept seeing things I would've wanted to take a picture of for my blog. Anyway.. tomorrow is the Lady GaGa concert.. and if you're friends with me you'll know how excited I probably am!!!! gaga (8) lol..

so there's nothing like an amazing artistic genious like ms. gaga herself to get my creative juices flowing right? I think she is incredible and the fact that she is my age really inspires me! I am loving the alejandro video right now despite all the criticism it's getting.


Okay next weekend I'll put up some new *inspired* stuff from the concert. p.s. who is alejandro :P ?
