Sustainable Pieces To Add To Your Shopping Cart

Recently, going out to shop has turned into quite the hassle.

From lining up at grocery stores, to trying to pick up a perscription in under an hour, the amount of people deemed acceptable to gather in a single place has diminished completely. To some – a way of coping is online shopping. Whether buying outfits for your first day on the town to purchasing athletic wear to get that toned body…

To Tik or to Tok?

I used to live for Vine.

My friends and I would get together after a night out, grab the closest jr chicken, and watch vine compilations too many times than we’d like to admit. We always knew which vine would come next, from Kyle to Road work ahead, but one thing we never expected was Tik Tok.

For those of you who don’t break a sweat trying to learn an intricate 15 second dance from a…

What would you do if you woke up and there was no such thing as COVID-19?

Recently, I was asked this question and didn’t know how to respond. I stayed up all night staring at my ceiling thinking of the wildest things I could do.

Thoughts of gallant trips to Paris and New York with my friends and Boyfriend filled my head. Imagining what it would be like living out our summer days without a…

Let’s Try This Again…

Here’s the thing.

No, I’m not going to make a big deal that I am back…because if we know anything about my track record on here is that I truly cannot keep a promise like that. Nothing personal, just I am lazy. Period.

But seriously, there is one thing I’ve missed more in this world, is the ability to sit down on my computer at 1am on a Friday night thinking, “what am I going to write…

Our newest edition & addition

Summer vacation; a time of relaxation, having sunscreen become your signature scent and aloe vera as your new wingman. 

There is this essence to summer. It puts all teenage angst to rest, bringing out a carefree persona to play.

That is…until you reach university.

Throughout high school, you dream of the day that you will finally become an adult. It’s visualized that the day you leave…

you need to meet the Whack Attack @tierrawhack

Wack; a slang term that originated in the 1960s associated with being inadequate or inferior.

Whack, on the other hand, is a powerful term. Whack is a noun jam-packed with creativity, individuality, and love. How could two words that have one letter of a difference be such completely different terms in the English language you may ask? The answer is simple, but first, let me introduce you to…

I still cannot stop pinching myself in disbelief! Thank you to all the lovely support and for The Globe and Mail for taking a chance on a young writer like me!

Dating apps changed my life.

I remember when I first opened Bumble and knew that the toxicity would soon take over. One year later, here I am knowing that I should quit. Yet I never do. The lifestyle of online dating for milennials is a repetitive cycle of the chase, the hook up, cuffing season and fatefully…the ghosting.

I was trapped in this hypocritical world of judging others for…

Get Your Fanny On this festival season!

Getting ready for a  music festival is tough.

From booking an Airbnb, dancing around your room, booking that dreaded waxing appointment to trying to find three Instagram worthy outfits, it is a struggleto plan for festival season. Your head flurries with a seemingly endless list of what has to be done and ultimately daily life gets in the way and that lack of time time snaps you back to…

Thank you Tyler for the IGOR Effect

For real (for real) this time. 

I grew up in an area with picket fences, golden retrievers, and a norm that everyone finds their soulmate the second they step foot on a university campus. It was an excellent way of growing up, yet as I got older, I realized that this norm that has been imposed on me was not the case. I became self-conscious reflecting on my life going into the second year, yet…

Sometimes cheap thrills and pills get the best of us...but please stay safe! x

A pounding beat over comes the crowd. Your heart starts pounding to the sound that carries through you like a wave. A feeling  that takes over all consciousness to bring a state of pure ecstacy. You feel as if nothing matters in the world. Yes, you have bills to pay, and yes tomorrow you will have a splitting head ache, but the feeling of now sends each individual into a state that simply cannot…

Guess who's BACK back AGAIN!

Months go by.

You sit there wondering…what ever happened to that blog where a certain freckled lanky gal poured her entire life online? What ever happened to the promise she made once a month to post?

I know, I know. You have been eagerlyon the edge of your seats waiting for another ife advice post from someone who does not take the advice herself. Well everyone, I am no longer on my bull…

*insert Rihanna lyrics*

As a kid, you are taught that the entire month of December is solely dedicated to celebrating the holiday season. Cutting snowflakes, making up excuses to hold another “money smart” assembly, and daydreaming of what Santa will wrap up under the Christmas tree. December was my stress-free hideaway throughout the craziness of the real world. Yet as I got older, and became a struggling university…

Thank u, A​riana.​​..what’s next?

There is a simple structure for love songs. The artist gushes about how lucky they are to have their partner forever by their side (yet never giving detail on who it is…when everyone knows who it is about), then on average, two months later the artist releases a petty breakup song stating how glad they are to be “over them”. Usually dragging them in the dirt for rational reasons. Each year, the…
