At 6:30 this morning...

I was outside shoveling a lot of snow!!! It snowed a lot over the night (about 35 cm) and it's still snowing right now! I have shoveled for an hour and a hour later, you can't tell I have done anything! Crazy! I guess I don't need to workout today, shoveling is a real workout, my arms are so sore! It really feels like winter!

This week is a short week because on Thursday, after lunch, we are heading to Québec city for the weekend! My boyfriend has an appointment for a MRI in a private clinic on Friday and this is why we are going to Québec. Here, getting an appointment for a MRI at the local hospital takes about 6-8 months (though it's free, thank you Canada health system)! Because he is going to a private clinic (it took him only one week to book an appointment there!), he will have to pay for the MRI, but insurance will pay back 75% of the cost! So that's not too bad! We will be staying at his cousin's house and we are also going to do a lot of shopping! I really miss those big malls!!!

So, this is our Menu for this week, we are keeping it pretty simple:

Monday: Tacos
Tuesday: Spaghetti and salad
Wednesday: Spring rolls and chinese noodles
Thursday: Subway (on the road)
Friday: Surprise meal at B's cousin

So, what are you cooking this week?

Friday Confessions

• I confess that I can't help but be jealous of people who seem to have everything.

• I confess that I want to buy every Essie nail polish.

• I confess that I'm having a hard time working out these days! No motivation!

• I confess that I don't like to go to the grocery store the weekend because there is too much people and I hate it! I hate to do small talk with people (acquaintances) I have not seen in a long time.

• I confess that I love to eat cereals for dinner. And for lunch. And for breakfast. Is that too much?!

What are you confessions?
Happy weekend!

Random Thursday

• I don't have much to say!

• I feel really tired!

• We are going for a weekend trip to Québec city in two weeks and I can't wait! I miss my university town so much!

• I want to put Christmas decorations!

• I want to buy everything on Sephora website. But it's so expensive and I'm on a budget!

• I have sent many resumes but no one has called me yet. Depressing. Really.

• I want to have a cat. But I can't because the boyfriend is really allergic. Sad.

That's all for today!

What's your random thoughts?

Friday Confessions!

• I confess that I really love to buy new hair products! (But sometimes, I use it only one time and it stays in the bathroom drawer!)

• I confess that I love to watch Christmas movies. In summer. In fall. In winter. In spring. I am that crazy!

• I confess that I have grey hair and I don't like it! I feel old!

• I confess that every time I go to my parents house, I make myself a snack because their fridge and pantry are much more fuller than our own! (Their house is a 10 minutes walk from our place!)

• I confess that I love to do laundry!

• I confess that I really need to go to the hairdresser, my roots are really showing! (My last appointment was like 12 weeks ago!)

• I confess that I'm really envious of people that are Ivy league students (we don't really have that here!), that really fascinates me, I must have watched too much Gilmore Girls!

What are your Friday confessions?

Happy weekend!

Two on Tuesday: Holiday Wish List!

This week, I'm linking up with Andrea from My Chihuahua Bites for 2 on Tuesday! 

This week is about Christmas!

Share two items from your holiday wish list (only 2?!?!?).

1. I hope I will get DVD series, like Beverly Hills 90210 seasons 7-10! I am totally a fan of that old TV show from the 90s and I have already seasons 1-6!

2. An elliptical machine!

I really want this to be able to exercise more at home but I don't think I will get it, it's kind of expensive! :(  A girl can dream!

So, what's on your Christmas wish list?

Birthday Post

On November 3rd 1984, the song Caribbean Queen (Billy Ocean) was #1 on the Billboard (and this song is actually one of my favorite from the 80s!). It was a Saturday. This was the day I was born, 27 years ago!!!

So today is my birthday! I can't believe I am 27!!! I feel so young haha! I don't like to get older... I was not excited at all to turn 27! It's too close to 30!!! I'm feeling very nostalgic right now! It feels like it was just yesterday that it was my 18th birthday! I can't believe it was already 9 years ago!

Tonight, I will be celebrating with my boyfriend at my parents house! There will be a great dinner and my favorite cake, carrot cake!

I hope this year is a great year for me!
