Happy New Year!

Bah it's been a while. I should make it one of my new years resolutions to update more. I did go boxing day shopping but I'm still going to go shopping one more time so I'm going to wait before posting up a collective haul.

On Tuesday I went downtown to hang out with some friends. We went skating by the lake and then we went out to eat. I didn't fall at all even though the ice was so bumpy. We went to Harbourfront Centre to skate and there were a lot of people there!

Here's a picture of the Lake, it was really grey and cold that day but I still thought the water looked nice.

We went to a place nearby called Ichiban Sushi for dinner and I ordered a bento box with salmon teriyaki and tempura. It was pretty good but I've had better tempura. It was kind of expensive though, I think I'll try a different restaurant next time. They also give you some ice cream, which we didn't get to choose, we just got green tea ice cream but they served it in these really cool bowls which I took a picture of! I think I amuse myself too easily x.x



Here's a picture of our shoes haha. We were trying to make a star but it was too dark and all of us were wearing dark coloured shoes. I'm the one with the converse at the bottom. You can barely see anything. It sure gets dark quickly in Toronto now.


There was also a large Shoppers Drug Mart nearby so I had to go take a look. I had lost my favourite Softlips in Strawberry Sherbert the week before so I had to buy a new one. I'll include pictures in a collective haul post. Softlips were $5 plus 300 bonus points so I made sure I picked one up in Tangerine Temptation. My sister helped me choose it, she has some kind of a orange fetish right now haha. It smells really good but I think they might have reformulated it since the tingle it gives my lips is really different. I don't know how to describe it aha. I still love it though. I also bought a Terry's Chocolate Orange. Normally they're $5 but they were on sale for 2.49! So I had to pick one up since they're so good.




Now to split the chocolate orange you have to whack it. I was never good at this. I whacked it a couple of times on my desk but when I opened it I was such a fail.


Only 3 pieces came off! What a fail I am. So I tried again.

Still no luck. I whacked it against my desk again and only one piece got looser.


I did it like 10 more times and it came to this. I tired so I gave up and just ate it with my sister. Better than nothing. It tasted great. These are like my favourite chocolates but they're so expensive for me.

Anyway enough with my fail, hope you have a Happy New Year and a wonderful 2011!
