China Town in Montreal

I'm on summer vacations this week and it was my birthday last Friday (July 22nd) so I've been busy enjoying my time off! I've taken tons of pictures but I haven't been home all week so I can't re-size them and post them up on here just yet.

In the mean time, here's a little post on a trip I took a few weeks ago...

D. and I took a road trip to Montreal not so long ago. We were going to the Jean-Talon market but made a quick stop at the China town there before heading out to the market.

Random pics of our walk in Montreal's little China town~

Plastic food menu in the window of an Asian restaurant!

Great place to go if you want to find random Anime toys / figures / items. Also tons of Hello Kitty stuff of course. Lots of Asian type souvenirs and food markets. But nothing very gyaru-ish. :(

'Was still fun to walk around and feel like I was in another country~


Do you have a China Town in your city?

Summer outfits & new phone

I've been thinking of getting a new phone for about 6 months now. The one I was sold when I signed up for contract was great for the 1st year and then it went to crap. Frozen screen, broken qwerty keyboard, wasn't receiving/sending certain texts, etc, etc, etc.

Two weeks ago I managed to get a good deal off wireless network supplier and got a new mobile!

Take a guess!

Took a guess yet?

White BlackBerry Torch 9800 !

(Yes, Sailor Moon as wallpaper, there you go inner geek in me~)

Touch screen AND keyboard, e-mails, GPS, BBM, are some of the options among many other things. Oh yeah, and phone :B

I've been making my own wallpapers off some of my favorite images and photos on Photoshop. And I've been changing them every few days.

So far the best phone I've had ever, not that I've had THAT many of them, but this one is great. It's used by many businesses because the network and the device are secure. I love the combination of touch screen and keyboard. Many people suggested me the iPhone, but I already have an iPod touch and quickly get tired of the touch keyboard, so BlackBerry it was <3

The case around it was found on eBay for quite cheap. I've been thinking of making my own by buying a clear case and deco-ing it myself, but it's the summer and I'd rather be outside on my extra spare time, so maybe that'll be a project for the winter! Have you deco-ed your phone?

Next... Two of my favorite outfits of the moment!

Ottawa's been pretty hot the past week and I'm LOVING IT! I don't care what people say, 30-40C just means it's awesome sunny outside and I can never get enough. When I hear people complain I can't help but tell them to zip it because it won't be long that the snow it'll be back on the ground.

First one is my most casual for evenings out at the movie theater or chilling out with friends around a bond fire.

Black leggings to the knees and extra long graphic tee. Super comfy, super light and also more coverage against the damn bugs!


Second outfit is for days out in town, shopping and other activities in the middle of the day!

When it's super hot I like my denim short shorts and my favorite tank tops. This one's an off-white color, but I have red, hot pink, blue, yellow, light red, etc, etc, etc.



I hope everyone's having a great July so far~
