What is Friendship?


A friend is someone you love with your entire heart.  A friend is always there for you when your down. A friend makes your day brighter. A friend loves you no matter what you do. A friend hurts when you hurt yourself.  A friend knows your deepest and darkest secrets.  A friends understands your family.  A friend knows your favourite foods. A friend knows your weaknesses. A friend enjoys your company. A friend always knows what to do. A friend can always make you smile. A friend believes in you when others don't.    A friend can listen. A friend can talk when you cant. A friend shares all the good times. A friend shares all the bad times. A friend cant lie about the truth.  A friend lives through your stories. A friend cares with their whole heart. Friends are real.

Reality Surrounding Us


 The Ottawa International Airport was awarded for having the best customer service in the world ,for it's size category. We as Canadians should be proud that our Capital city was honoured. WOO Canada!


This is a picture of a hospital room in Iran. The Patient was just brought from the ambulance into the hospital room where the doctor pronounced him dead. Comparing this picture of a hospital room in Iran to the ones we have in Ontario makes me extremely grateful for the health care system we have.


This is a picture of a building in Haiti exactly one year after the devastational earthquake. Imagine what the entire country looks like. This is a Major stadium downtown.


 Lady Gaga arrived and came down the red carpet in this egg like structure.


This is a birds eye picture of Afghanistan. Is this what you expected it to look like?

Planet No Entertainment.


What would the world be like if we had no sense of entertainment? Without Entertainment our lives would be emotionless. Entertainment brings us the feelings of joy, love or laughter and many different memories. I can not imagine a single day without emotion. Entertainment in today’s society comes in many different varieties. There are literally millions of different things people do to entertain themselves. Here are some things I do to keep my life eventful and entertaining:

Jokes Snowboard Travel Watch Movies Dance Cook Friendships Sports Blog Run

The word entertainment to me, always brings one thing to mind. Many of you probably didn’t think of this as a source of entertainment, but it is one of my favourites ----> childrens movies. I absolutely love classic children movies. Whether they are cartoon or not, I have a selection of kids movies that I could watch over and over again. Although I don’t spend much time watching these movies, when I do, it’s a great source of entertainment. My favourite Children’s movies are:

Madagascar Racing Stripes Finding Nemo
The Fox and the Hound The Lion King Charlottes Web    

These movies just make me warm and cuddly inside. Their fairy tale endings always make me so happy, which is why I like this genre of movie over any other kind. It is very hard to find someone who does not enjoy a good childrens movie once in a while. Kids movies are simply the best. They have just the right amount of action, comedy, romance, and thriller going on throughout them. These movies are motivated towards kids, so bring out the child inside you and see just how entertaining these movies are!!!

Oh Canada- Our home and native Land.

Being raised in a world of media, I can’t help but hear about the disasters occurring in other countries. We have the great floods of Australia, the hatred in Egypt and the Poverty in South Africa. And what scares me the most is that this is just three issues on a list of hundreds. I am so grateful for the country I live in because of the beauty and the respect we have from our neighbouring land. EVERYONE LOVES CANADA.

I have been from the eastern coast to the western coast and back again numerous times, only to find myself falling deeper and deeper in love with my country. I have always lived in Ontario, however I have been lucky enough to make it all over Canada. 


Ontario is an amazing province. We have the most amazing scenery up around the Sue Salut Marie, ThunderBay area. Yet, downtown Toronto is known for its upbeat classy city town. Although Toronto can seem rough, it does have its classy side. This picture on the left is a photo of downtown Toronto. You can compare this photo to downtown New York or Miami. Not to mention the high class shopping  you can find downtown! New Brunswick is another one of my favourite places in Canada. I have a cottage there on North Lake, which is a lake on the border of NB and Maine. It is the most beautiful place I have seen yet. The lake is always warm and clear, the sun is always shinning and when a storm rolls in, it is absolutely spectacular. Every night the sky lights up with different colours, and its hard to imagine yourself anywhere else. British Columbia. My Home. My Future. I know I am going to live in BC at one point in my life. I spent much of my summer there last year, and fell deeply in love with the environment I was in. I first experienced Whistler, which was the most beautiful little town I have ever been to. It is literally a village on the bottom of a giant mountain, surrounded by lakes and rivers and more mountains. CRAZY. The town was so fun too! Filled with people from all over the world, mostly Canadians and Kiwis, and it is always busy. 24 hours, 365 days a year. Not to mention the party scene, which gets quite out of hand sometimes. ;) I then travelled on my own to Downtown Vancouver, which was the coolest city. The fashion surrounding me was unreal, and the buildings were absolutely fantastic. ( If your ever downtown Vancouver, make sure you check out the library and japadog) I then hopped on a ferry to Vancouver Island. The coast is fantastic! Surfing is amazing, and the town of Ucluelete was unlike anything I have ever seen before. The town is located 2.5 hours from a big city, separated by water and mountains. It is run and owned by hippies, and no chain restaurants or businesses are found there. Most of the food is produced  in the backyards around you. Such a fantastic town, much like most of the Province.After experiencing so many places around Canada, it makes me want to travel and experience more. OUR COUNTRY IS AMAZING. Before setting off and exploring the world, get a taste of your own land. Trust me, there is much more than you would expect out there! LOVE TO MY COUNTRY. xx
