Halloween 2009

2009-11-01T17:40:00.000-08:00

One of the biggest North American "holidays" have come and gone. I wasn't going to head out and celebrate this year's Halloween, but a bbm (blackberry messenger) conversation occurred during the first week of October that got me excited so a decision was made! This year, I purchased my costume online and IT NEVER ARRIVED!!! They tell me it will be here on Tuesday...3 days AFTER halloween!! Ummm, does that make any sense to anyone out there?!?! What good is a late costume? UGH! I was completely peeved, but didn't want the dilemma to lower my spirits so I decided to self-make my costume. I ended up being a kitty/catwoman/mouse creation (depending on what you perceive my costume as, lol)! Here's a pic of my ensemble. What do you think?

So much fun nonetheless! I hope you all had an amazing Halloween! Check out my pictures from Halloween 2009 below.

A few more pictures...

Hey all,

Just wanted to take a sec to post up a few more pictures from the Porsche Panamera unveiling event last week. All pictures are courtesy of The Mint Agency.

In the world of promotions

2009-10-21T22:28:00.000-07:00

As most of you know, I stay active in the world of promotions for many reasons. I LOVE interacting with people, I love making new friends (the teams that I'm usually involved with, I mostly end up staying friends with) and I absolutely love the potential to meet individuals that may further my broadcasting career. Promotion activations allow you the opportunity to meet certain individuals regular day life would never allow you to meet.

With some of these activations, I speak to more than 5,000 people a day (granted those are the days I'm working more than 12 to 15 hour shifts...yikes!!!) and I am given the opportunity to be in environments that I wouldn't be able to be a part of (without a hefty entry ticket, lol).

With all this said, I recently wrapped an activation with The Toronto Maple Leafs, am currently working as a flight attendant with Porter Airlines and I am the new rep for Philips Sonicare electrical toothbrush for kids!

This is definitely a way to keep things fresh and exciting! Keep your eyes out for more role playing jobs from yours truly coming soon!!

The unveiling of Porsche's "Panamera"

2009-10-20T20:04:00.000-07:00

It's been a well nested 25 year old idea and now FINALLY, the brand new, much anticipated and highly sought after 4-door Sedan known as the "Panamera" by Porsche is now in Canada! Tonight, I was priviledged to have been the only video media invite to this ultra VIP event at the Porsche Headquarters in downtown Toronto and I must say, I was presently surprised.

Not only did I get to cover the story and report on such a beautiful sedan, I also got to hang out with some of Toronto's movers and shakers, met new friends and hung out with some old friends too!

Look out for my video segment coming soon as well as a couple more professional photos from tonight's extravagant event!

Brrrr, it's cold out there!!

2009-09-29T10:16:00.000-07:00

Summer? What summer??? It's like we here in Toronto didn't get more than a month of gorgeous warm weather (thank goodness for my Dominican getaway with the bff). The cold has been creeping its way back into our atmosphere and I'm really starting to feel the chills. Not sure if it's because I live in a brick house or if it's just chilly in general, but I'm constantly cold and my hands are always freezing (well, I'm not going to lie, that's just because I have a warm heart. You know how the saying goes ;)

Although born in August makes me a true summer baby and lover of the sun and warm weather, I am looking forward to one thing that fall brings: gorgeous fall fashion! It's a great time to experiment with deeper colours and it's so fun to accessorize your outfits with cute hats, scarves and the likes! I can't wait to show you all my new outfits!

Stay warm,

xoxo

One of those weeks...

2009-09-28T19:15:00.000-07:00

Have you ever had a week where almost everyone disappointed you whether it be a friend, a co-worker or just people in general? Where a friend promised to do one thing, but did another? Where someone let you down not 2 but 3 times after promising never to do so again?? Well sadly, I'm having one of those weeks. Naturally, it upset me and being the Leo I am, I expressed myself to the best listeners I know: my mom and my bff's (and the shopping mall! Come on, what CAN'T shopping fix? Lol!)

Throughout this all, I realized that it's all been a learning experience and without these disappointments, I was not showing signs of growth. I've learned that some personalities just don't click and in a situation where someone is trying to get the better of you, you gotta turn around and be the bigger person, laugh it off and not let anyone bring you down.

It's situations and upsets like this that allow me to take a step back and really count my blessings - all my lovely friends and family! My true angels! I am forever grateful for them all! It's so hard to find good friends these days so take a moment and show your true friends how much you love and appreciate them :)

Sending positivity, love and happiness to you all!

I'm a MTV After Show Friend!

2009-09-23T12:28:00.000-07:00

MTV is the network known for its hit shows like "The Hills" and "The City". They have (for a few seasons now) dedicated 30 minutes of LIVE TV to talk about the latest in hollywood headlines on a show called "The After Show". I am honoured that they asked me to come on board as one of their After Show Friends. This means once a week, you can all tune and watch as I give my 411 on the topics of discussion.

It's a juicy and funny half hour of television that you need in your life! So be sure to watch The After Show, Monday to Thursday LIVE at 7:30pm (re-runs again at 11:30pm) or online at:

Fun times at Virgin Mobile Festival 2009

2009-06-28T16:43:00.000-07:00

How much do you love a good roadtrip? I actually quite like them and I was due for yet another. So my girlfriend and I both jumped into her van and headed straight to Montreal! Why? Well, of course for the Virgin Mobile Festival!! It was great catching up with old friends again and seeing some great bands rock the stage for a crowd that seems to have at least 4 to 5 thousand people!

Check out some of my pics:

Guest Speaker @ "Live Your Dreams" Career Day

2009-04-22T16:37:00.000-07:00

It was both a privilege and an honour when I was asked by my highschool softball coach to come back to the old stomping ground 9 years later for Career Day. "Live Your Dreams" is a new program exclusive to my old highschool Winston Churchill that was put in place to inspire our youth of tomorrow. I was honoured to speak to two classes and share with them my ongoing journey towards accomplishing my goals and dreams.

Below are some pictures from "Live Your Dreams" Career Day:

LG's 2008 Next Top Models

2008-04-20T17:46:00.000-07:00

I'm sorry to have not been in touch for a while, but I do have a good excuse. I was having the time of my life touring across Canada with LG as one of their Next Top Models. LG came together with Canada's Next Top Model to create a product launch that would set their 2008 product line on fire and decided that I as well as 4 other models would be a great part of their vision! What a ride it was!

Below are a few pictures from my tour and the cities I visited along the way. Take a look!

The girls!

The kitchen! One of our many sets.

The beautiful Vancouver!

I've been busy with so much more. Stay tuned for the updates!
