I don’t know if Mother Nature is just playing with me, but it seriously feels like Spring is right around the corner.  Is anyone else ready to lay in the quad while dodging frisbees, and catching up on reading assignments with the girls? I know that I sure am.

Even if this nice weather subsides, Spring Break is right around the corner.  Unfortunately before any sun bathing begins, I’m trying to find that special internship (it couldn’t come along soon enough)! But luckily, the super stressful, super long, super annoying week has come to an end.

Also come to an end; Jake’s search for undeniable love on The Bachelor.

Thanks to Jake, I feel as if the entire U.S. was up in arms about his (not so brilliant) choice for love. Yep, it’s been a long week dealing with our broken hearts for Tenley; we all need a break.  But before we dive into our weekend, here is the week that was:

- We talked to the boys of The Buried Life. I don’t know about you, but I’m going to be seriously sad when these boys park Penelope and stop crossing things off their Bucket Lists.

- We tried out Chatroulette. And learned it is absolutely nuts. Read More »

I want to go to there.

Could life be any more stressful right now? If midterms weren’t enough, we have to find the time to get our bodies in shape for Spring Break, watch a buttload of TV, and figure out what we’re going to wear for St. Patrick’s day.

I have been an anxious mess all week; even last night’s 90-minute yoga sesh didn’t ease my mind. Instead of letting everything go and focusing on my breathing, I used Downward Dog as a time to notice how fat my thighs were and how badly I needed a pedicure. Then I started thinking of all the other things I could be doing with that time, making a mental list in my head.

It’s exhausting. I just wish I could be somewhere else for an hour. Somewhere with no stress, no assignments, no anything but pure bliss and relaxation. Like in bed…with Joel McHale and Paul Rudd…while Paula Deen feeds us big, buttery cupcakes. Or on a yacht with Beyonce and Jay-Z, just hanging out and admiring the brand new Louboutin pumps they got me for my birthday.

Just thinking about it all makes me feel a little less stressed, less anxious. Since I know I’m not the only one freaking out right now, I asked the CollegeCandy writers to tell me what they would do if they had an hour of total freedom. Read More »

Yonge & Dundas Intersection in Toronto after Team Canada Win

This week’s Weekly Ten, Why Canada Deserves Silver, stirred up quite the controversy yesterday. Seriously, I didn’t see this much hate on CollegeCandy since one writer expressed her disdain for Taylor Swift. And rightfully so. Yes it was meant to be a joke, but we in Canada aren’t entirely laughing with you.  While we know for a fact CollegeCandy loves their Canadian readers, and even has a few Canadian writers (myself included), this post pissed a lot of people off.

But instead of get angry and insult the intelligence of the writer, editor or Americans in general, I decided to take the high road and just show why Canada deserves more than just a gold medal in Olympic hockey. So here is my condensed version (there are way too many reasons for one post!) of all the reasons Canada rocks that they forgot to teach you in high school. Read More »
