I only started watching Grey's from the beginning in June 2014 - and before the end of the year I was already caught up and ready for the 11th season. This show makes me laugh, and cry - a LOT - which makes my relationship with this show very love/hate. I keep watching each episode and wondering at the end - how are they going to keep this show going? But they still do. And after watching 11 seasons back to back, I will likely keep tuning in to see what happens next. -
Maybelline Volum' Express Pumped Up! Colossal Mascara
I really liked the formula and application of this mascara - it really gave my lashes some volume and curl. I do agree that it flakes throughout the day which is a bit of an inconvenience - but I got it at a really good sale price and would probably... +

Canada True Maple Tea
I LOVE sipping on this tea - the maple flavour is warm and true. I drink it both black and lightly sweetened with a touch of milk and I think the addition of the milk makes it so creamy and delicious.

Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984) by George Orwell

I "kind of" read this in high school, and picked it up for real a few years after, in order to sit down and really, really read it. I definitely had a better understanding of plot and characters the second time around, especially considering that I was reading for leisure and not for an exam ;) The movie adaptation is ok, but as it usually is, I much prefer the book where you can create your own scene - which is especially important in 1984. -
Margaret Atwood - Oryx and Crake (2003)
Another book someone had recommended to me in high school that I didn't end up reading until I was 21 or 22. I am glad I waited, because even though I loved books my whole life, I was able to sit down and really enjoy this book "outside of the... +
Another book someone had recommended to me in high school that I didn't end up reading until I was 21 or 22. I am glad I waited, because even though I loved books my whole life, I was able to sit down and really enjoy this book "outside of the classroom". This book really is "adventure romance" set in a spectacular fictional plot - though Atwood wouldn't go so far as to say this is "science fiction", I would say the plot does have those undertones.
A great read. Another one I would love to pick up again.

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
I think I was supposed to read this in high school but I could't manage to actually finish it until I was older - probably 21 or 22. Once I was able to actually sit and "enjoy" it, I really did enjoy the book. It's a classic, and I would definitely... +
I think I was supposed to read this in high school but I could't manage to actually finish it until I was older - probably 21 or 22. Once I was able to actually sit and "enjoy" it, I really did enjoy the book. It's a classic, and I would definitely recommend anyone who hasn't read it to read it. Now I can appreciate the fantastic plot. -
The Catcher in the Rye

Another book I loved in my teenage years that I really want to go back and read as an adult. I have heard other adults say that they don't love the book as much as they did when they were younger - as Holden Caulfield can be more "annoying" rather than "charming". We'll see about that. I found this book so inspiring that for a long time I really wanted to name my first-born son Holden. -
Go Ask Alice by Anonymous
I read this when I was 16-17 and really loved it - the teen-angst in me could really relate to a lot of what the author was feeling. I would like to go back and read this as an adult to see how I would feel - nostalgic, empathetic, sad? There is... +
I read this when I was 16-17 and really loved it - the teen-angst in me could really relate to a lot of what the author was feeling. I would like to go back and read this as an adult to see how I would feel - nostalgic, empathetic, sad?
There is controversy around whether or not this is a "true" story - nevertheless it is a great read.

I found this gloss in Dragon Fruit at Winners - and it is my favourite colour! It has a nice light scent and a thick formula with lots of pigment. I don't find it too sticky or that it wears off easy. I'm almost sure these are discontinued now and that's unfortunate because I would love to have another tube of this. -
