Personally, I'm not a huge fan of the whole reality TV addiction. But I have to admit, the networks are getting pretty good at stealing my attention. I don't normally "follow" TV shows in the least, but this summer, my eyes are glued to TWO! shows. Thats right, not just one but two.
First off we have the always anticipated Big Brother on CBC (CBS i think in the states).
I did watch last season with Jeff and Jordan (yes!), and was gunning for them all the way. I saw my first Big Brother season when I lived in England, and the US has done a pretty good job at keeping this reality show interesting. For this seasons Big Brother 12, I'm on team Ragan and Enzo!!! This show is nearly impossible to keep up with, as it plays 3 nights a week, but you can generelly find episodes online if you missed it!
Big Brother play on CBC on wednesdays, thursdays and sundays at 8pm EST. Don't miss it!!!
My second top guilty reality TV show pleasure is the unmistakable Jersey Shore!!!! For some odd reason, these guidos and guidettes have truely captured my heart. I still haven't decided whether it's because they are so ridiculous, or hillarious. I'm thinkin it's a bit of both that make these "characters" so real. Snooky, I got your back girl! Vinny is my absolute fav of the boys, I have a soft spot for boys with morals and a strong family support network!
Jersey Shore plays on MTV on thrusdays at 8pm EST. But again, you can always catch episodes online, or the re-runs on MTV.
Thats it for now! Don't forget to watch these shows, they'll get you hooked!
Love Always,
C

Curren$y live in Canada!
The Oxyrotin clothing label recently held a very successful launch party here in Ottawa. The designers took on the role of promoters, scored a wicked underground hip hop artist to perform live. Curren$y came all the way up to Ottawa from New Orleans to do his first out of country show, and Oxyrotin made it happen! Check out the real life process Sean and Mitch fr Oxyrotin went through to make their show happen.

Life After Graduation
I find myself sitting at a desk, in a 9-5'er. Exactly where I wanted to be after I spent three years of education? Not quite. DO NOT FEAR!!
I find myself thinking back to a presentation we had in one of my fav classes. Wendy Threader's Transition to Marketing Professional class. We had a guest speaker come in named Dave Stubbs. What a guy! Dave started multiple companies from scratch. Built them up, right from the bottom, and turned each one into a successful venture. And his presentation was based around a saying. A saying he asked (and probably still asks) himself when he was in his very first "professional" type job. What's the saying you ask?
"This can't be it.."
Thats it. Thats all he needed to say to himself to realize there was more out there. More for him to conquer, more for him to explore, and most importantly, more for him to live and learn from.
Three months after my final graduation ceremony, I find myself asking the same question. This can't be it.

WINTER! It's almost over
I'm not sure whether to be excited February is over (the worst has past) and summer is a few months away, or to be totally dissapoint by this amazing winter's end. Since I haven't written since 3 months B.S. (before snow), heres a quick re-cap on this past winter in Ottawa.
The weather has been super warm!!!! We had rain in december which did a number of the snowboarding season. Before this week, we haven't seen a proper snow fall since New Years.
New years was awesome, AS USUAL! No british friends to celebrate with us this year, but we managed to adhere to a consistant new years plan....Champagne anyone?
Snowboarding was wicked this year. A little damper in december neveer hurt anyone, and we managed to hit the slopes either way. YOU CAN'T STOP US!!! Shout out to my tremblant homies :)
VANCOUVE 2010 OLYMPICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have never wanted to be out west so bad in my entire life. Just the thought of missing all that action brings an ache to my heart. Canada has been kicking ass! Special shout out to Maelle Rickards for the snowboarding cross gold!!!!!
