A Thought.

After having a late night phone conversation, I was quite pensive while I was lying in my bed.

I was thinking about happiness and about its importance in our lives. Everyone thrives to be happy, and will go to great lengths to achieve such a feeling. What we don't realize is that it's not something that you can create, but pursue. At the end of the day, we have to look back on what makes us happy and what gives us that euphoric sensation and continue to do just that the following day. It's a simple concept when you think about it... do what pleases YOU.

"Don't ever let somebody tell you... You can't do something. Not even me. All right? You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period." - Will Smith as Chris Gardner, The Pursuit of Happyness

I miss it. <3

I seriously can't wait to go back...
And there is a land me say there's only day
Look into the book of life and you shall feel seal
And you shall feel you are on the sky

There is a land that you never got known
And there is a land me say there's only day
Look into the book of life and you will see
Rhythm a fit flow me say there's only day

I love my people
Singing in the sunrise blow your whistle
Oh no
I love my people
Singing in the sunrise with a reason
Oh no

Where life has taken me...

So, as usual, I have not been keeping up with my blogs. It's weird because once I decide to write one, I love doing it and yet I still never get around to updating frequently.

Quite a bit has happened ever since my last post:

March 23: I got my acceptance to John Molson School of Business. Although I got in on my second choice, Business Administration with a minor in Management, I am still incredibly happy because it's not the easiest school to get into. I am going to work hard at boosting my marks and transferring into my program of choice come winter. I can't wait to go back to school!

April 3-5: My 20th birthday! To celebrate we headed up north to my great-grandparents' house in Ste-Adele. Although it's not the most luxurious location, we had a great time! We went out to Bourbon North and sipped on sparkling wine and danced to the most repetitive techno ever. We went shopping, lazed around and just enjoyed being away from the hectic lives that we live. It was a great way to celebrate my birthday, and quite different than anything I have ever done for my birthday. I'm sure we're going to be heading back at some point during the summer so we can go water sliding too!


April 12: My first training session as "technicienne administrative" at Maxi. I got promoted to do the pay-roll at the store! I'm really liking the job so far, especially because I am being given the opportunity to learn something new

April 17: Mac Fashion Show! Rob and I got VIP seats for the fashion show. It was a lot of fun to go back to the high school and cheer on Alex who was the all-star diva of the night. Hahaha! It really brought me back to my high school years and although I don't miss them as much as I thought I would, I really miss planning events and being involved in the student life.

April 21: Jenia, Melissa, Alex, Jenn & I headed to Club Soda for an amazing performance by the All-American Rejects! Singing songs from their newest album "When the World Comes Down" and from "Move Along", the crowd sung along from beginning to end. I would have to say my favorite performances were: Move Along, Dirty Little Secret, Gives You Hell, I Wanna and Wind Blows. I find myself listening to the CD over and over ever since this show... SO FUN! I can't wait for my next show, whenever that will be!

April 23: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX! <3

April 24: TOPS show at Lakeside with Alex & James! The show was definitely "outstanding". Rob, you've outdone yourself once again! Congrats! Then we spent a quiet night at James' house and ordered pizza at midnight hahaha!

April 26: Janna (& friends) blow the audience away at Christine Beland's 14th Piano Concert with their rendition of Canon in D Major. It was an amazing performance and I am incredibly proud of Janna for her continuous dedication to music.


& that pretty much concludes the month. There were tons of get togethers, shopping dates, nights out for coffee, laughs and the usual that keeps me going every day.

Tomorrow I should be going to see a movie with the ladies, it's been far too long since we've all hung out so I can't wait for that!
