The Mexico Diaries

Hello my lovelies, I have a couple of things to cover:

I just got back from Mexico and will have a series of diary-like posts up sometime around New Year's, transcribed from the messy and rather abused journal I brought with me on vacation. 
Perhaps I will even add my lovely illustrations, if you guys are really interested. 

Mostly I'm just posting the Mexico Diaries (sounds like a bad movie title, doesn't it? You're welcome) because I thought you might like to hear some funny stories from the trip, a little bit because I love it when Kristina Horner posts stories about her travels, and mostly just because Tammy really wants me to. I swear, without her and Marcela I would probably forget to post as much as I do. Thanks, ladies.

That is actually an excellent segue into my next 'thing to cover': yet ANOTHER YouTube channel. I'm sorry.

I'm actually not completely sure how I ended up being involved in this, but here I am. I have been recruited into another 5-day vlog channel. For those of you who are fortunate enough never to have seen my videos on 5awesome5AGfans, I used to be a Monday. I kinda liked Mondays. Now I'm a Friday WHICH I LIKE JUST AS MUCH. Except for the fact that I do actually post when it is agreed that we post...

No matter! We're figuring it out, and our channel is called 7MintsAtATime. If you want to know where the name comes from, you'll find out very soon if you subscribe to see future videos =]

Marcela- Monday
Robyn- Tuesday
Tammy- Wednesday
Alex- Thursday
Caro- Friday

We just do fun vlogs and stuff. I'm really excited to be working with these gals, as I get to see them everyday but don't get to spend as much time with as I'd like to. 

So, you can go check us out on my "Tubes" page, and stay tuned for the Mexico Diaries! I hope all of you are having a lovely Christmas (or just a lovely winter break if you don't celebrate Christmas) and remember that I love hearing from all of you, so don't be shy.

Stay excellent.

Ignore the tumbleweeds rolling by... I'M BACK

You guys... I have a confession to make.

Every single time I open blogspot I freak out because I do that thing. You know what thing I'm talking about. That thing where I put something off (like blogging) for so long because I honestly have very little free time, and when I finally DO have time to blog I feel so guilty about it that I don't blog because I am filled with shame.

In this situation, you can handle it in one of three ways:

1. Pretend you were there the whole time, and there was just an error with publishing the post
2. Act nonchalant about it and make it seem like you're too cool to be blogging
3. Apologize for your absence in a pathetic and undignified way, such as a blog post

In any case, I'm part of a legit business now and I'm working on designing that website and creating the products and shamelessly promoting it, so that's the reason I haven't been present on this lonely lonely blog.

NEWSY NEWS TIME

In approximately 6 hours I will be on the plane to Mexico! I am bringing a journal with me to record all the fun little things that happen while I'm away, since I'm not bringing any kind of technology with me besides a cameraaah. :)

Can you just imagine, a full week without anybody bothering me! It's paradise! It also help that over there it's about 26 degrees celsius and where I am it's about -19 degrees celsius.

Bliss.

I'll see you lovelies soon, and in the meantime enjoy yourselves! New post up (FOR REALS THIS TIME) by Friday next week.
