When the day came to leave for Windsor I awoke with butterflies in my stomach; I was nervous for so many reasons but there were two big reasons I was lying to my mother and I was going to see Colin for the first time in 2 and a half months. I’d already made the decision to leave home, I’d…

Love a Heart & Rent Frock Repeat
Love a Heart is only 15 days away and honestly I can’t believe it! We have an incredible line up of sponsors, dates and most importantly bachelors & bachelorettes. This year the lovely ladies at Rent Frock Repeat will be dressing myself and hostess Shannon Kelly again which for a gal who lives on a budget is basically the best news ever. Rent Frock…
Chapter 2 – Back to School
Back to School Going back to school after our Italian adventure felt like a punishment; I was suddenly chained to my MSN because for the time being that was where Colin lived, in my computer. The late night conversations with Colin covered up the pain of living with my emotionally and physically abusive father. For months leading up to my…
#LoveaHeart 3!
It’s hard to believe that I am a month away from #LoveaHeart 3! It all started in a coffee shop, it started as an idea, it started as a pitch to every friend I’ve ever had to see who would get involved. Now in our third year we’ve raised a total of $21,000.00 for The Heart and Stroke Foundation! That…
I’m A Slut…
At least by your standards I am. Probably. I lost track of the number of guys that I’ve slept with a long time ago but I only stopped caring recently. In the past couple of months I’ve realized a few things… but the most important? My sex life is none of your damn business. My sex life does not define…
Chapter 1 – Italy
I’ve always believed in moments, moments change everything and everything changes in a moment. When I met Colin, I didn’t know that it was a moment, I didn’t know that everything was going to change after that; I barely even knew I liked him. When I was seventeen my life changed and for the five years that followed life was…
My Book…
On my birthday this year I had the pleasure of seeing my friend Ashley sing, this was BEFORE proceeding to tempt fate by doing 1 shot for every year I’d been alive so you can trust my judgement; and during her beautiful cabaret Ashley sang a song called My Book. You have to listen or you won’t understand what comes next……

Twitter isn’t Made of Hugs
Twitter is one of my favourite places in the world, I’ve met some of my best friends there, Dan Levy the #BoyBestie, Jen Lui, Stephanie Fusco and Shannon Kelly to name a few a very few… I haven’t even listed Jon Crowley and he should never go unmentioned; right Jon? But this week the Toronto Police announced that they had pressed charges…
#FitFlirtyShan
I’ve never been overweight, not really, I went through some things when I was younger when I thought I was ‘fat’ and I lost WAY too much weight. I was sick but having been healthy for years I don’t look at myself like that any more, I don’t constantly wonder if I’ve gained too much weight or if I could…
