Me to You: Best Friends Forever


Something one of my best friends, Emily and I always talk about is the fact that our lives should be a television show. Or that we should be on a television show (Parenthood!!!). Or that Two Broke Girls stole our idea of two girls trying to succeed in the cupcake business (with less sexual references because that is just too awkward for us to handle). Something that my best friend sent me was this new television show, Best Friends Forever. NBC calls it "A boy-meets-girl's-best-friend" comedy, and it's perfect. Emily and I like to joke around and say that its basically us in the future. Here's the full episode for your viewing pleasure! (As a side note, NBC, I love this show. Please do not cancel it!)

Me to You: Love Competition


I'm a sucker for things like this. 
Stanford neuroscientists host the world’s first love competition, asking contestants between the ages of 10 and 75 to spend 5 minutes in an fMRI machine thinking deeply about the person they love. The results are certain to bring a tear to your eye.

The older woman at 12:50 made me cry happy tears. I don't know if its the time (12:15am) or what, but things like this get me too emotional! I love love. I love what love does to people.

Things We Love: Flowers

Flowers, flowers, and more flowers! With springtime and floral patterned clothing coming soon, I thought now would be a perfect time to post about my current obsession! I believe my love of pastel colours was from my love of fresh, colourful flowers! I recently received some as a surprise the other day. Nothing beats flowers! (Except maybe some lilac hair...)









What are your favourite types of flowers? Mine are pink carnations, mostly because when I was 13 my mum bought me a pink cat and it's name was carnation. But you can never go wrong with roses!

Inspiration: Pastel

I, like many teenagers on the internet, am in love with pastel hair. I think it looks beautiful on everyone, regardless of hair length. I've had friends with orange, blue, teal, and pink hair, and it always looks so good on them! 

When I fell in love, it all happened while watching the 2012 Red Carpet coverage for the Oscars. I saw Kelly Osbourne's hair colour, wearing her beautiful sequin embellished gown. I loved it when it was grey, but after she dyed it with a slit purple tint, I fell in love! It's perfect. I really wish I could have this colour, but due to my dark hair and the fact bleaching hair kinda scares me, it may never happen!

Inspiration: Pucker Up!


I love when artists do something out of the ordinary. I found out about Natalie Irish on tumblr. She makes portraits by applying lipstick and puckering up to kiss the canvas. It's so creative and the outcome looks amazing. Check out her paintings here.

Things We Love: Forts



I spent so much of my childhood making forts with friends and my little siblings. I miss making them so much. I made one with my friend, Emily, a year or so ago. We watched Skins and ate meatballs and cupcakes. It was a lovely day. Now I'm itching to make some more with some friends and have a movie marathon.
