My boyfriend moved to a new apartment recently and he gave me a set of keys (which really surprised me because I didn't think he would). But now my keychain is OVERLY heavy!! In case your wondering what all these keys are for:
  1. I have my two house keys
  2. I have my car key
  3. I have my god brother's apartment keys because I babysit his cat for him 
  4. I have my sister's apartment keys because I work out in her gym
  5. And now I have my boyfriend's apartment keys
I don't know what to do about my key situation because I look ridiculous walking around with all these keys.

I HAVE GREAT NEWS EVERYONE!!! I finally got approved for a student loan and now I have a lot of $$$ in the bank!! But the bad news is... I'm trying not to spend any of it on "unnecessary things" wahhhhhh. Apparently this money is supposed to last me the next couple of months for gas + food + tuition. Too bad because I really wanted to buy myself a new bag lol. I've been dreaming of shopping nonstop. I am such a greedy shopaholic.






This one is my favorite out of all the bags. I love the seagreen color!

SHOEPHIX NOW OPEN IN YALETOWN!

A good girlfriend of mine just opened up her shoe store ShoePhix in Yaletown! The soft opening was today and the store looks AMAZING. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take any pictures of the store because I was a little rushed since I needed to get back to studying. They carry brands such as Sam Edelman, Paprika, Two Lips and so on. They also have a large selection of belts and bracelets... all which are of good quality and at great prices! Whenever you Vancouver ladies are free be sure to drop by the store and say hi. My boyfriend got me a pair of black Sam Edelman flats (my first pair of real nice flats... my other flats are from Zellers lol). I couldn't decide between the black or gold ones but I ended up playing it safe and going for black. These are perfect to wear during my clinical rotation on the Mental ward. They have cushioned soles and are very very comfortable. I'm flat footed and have wide feet, though, so I'm a little scared that they will make my feet sore after awhile :S 


My new flats! 

I've been trying to save money lately since I'm planing on going on a ton of trips during the school summer break. (April: LA May: Mexico June: Vegas & July: Philippines) So I've been getting my shopping fix at more affordable stores like Forever21 and H&M! While I was in Hawaii I picked up a pair of yellow skinny jeans and an off the shoulder Rolling Stones sweater. The jeans I bought in a size 25 because that was the smallest size in stock and the sweater in a size medium so that it was loose fitting and comfortable. Unfortunately the jeans ended up being way too big on me because I can pull them off my bum without unbuttoning them. I ended up giving them to my sister :( 



I found this boyfriend cardigan on the Forever21 website and I hope that I can find it here in stores. I love big cardigans! I also found some cute blazers online. I own ZERO blazers which is pretty sad! It's my goal to buy myself a few nice ones.

BOOKED!!

Me and my boyfriend finally booked our trip for spring break. First, we were planning to stay on a resort in Mexico for either 5 or 7 days but since we're so last minute the only flights available were connecting flights with 18 hour layovers (f*ck that!). So we decided to save the Mexico trip till May when I'm done finals and we're going to go to Hawaii instead! :D Pictures of where we'll be staying:

BRACELET SHOPPING

I'm a little mad at myself because I told myself yesterday that I was going to quit shopping for awhile so that I could pay off my visa. Well that was a lie because when I went on hautelook.com today I ended up buying three bracelets :S They are by this brand called Leila and in total they came to around $117. I think that I saved around $200 something because these were 70% off. I needed a little retail therapy because I was mad at my boyfriend. He told me that he was going to take me to dinner for our anniversary but then he FORGOT!!!!! These bracelets make me feel better lol.

DYING IN THE COLD

I tried to put off buying a winter jacket for so long because it's already February and we technically only have one month of winter left. Yet the past two days have been so cold AND it snowed!! I was dying and on the verge of getting hypothermia so I went on a hunt for a winter jacket. I finally bought the Mackage Joey jacket and it is really warm. I'm a big bargain shopper and I found this jacket in extra small for sale on www.list4all.com for only $380 (it's originally $520 before tax and shipping on the Mackage website). I bargained it down to $370 and my boyfriend grabbed it for me. It was such a good deal... I'm proud of myself lol.

I'm going to Whistler this weekend with my boyfriend so I can wear my new jacket there. My boyfriend is in real estate and he always has these crazy hookups so he got this mansion for the weekend. It has 5 bedrooms plus an indoor pool! I'll take pictures and post it on my blog. I lost my camera charger though :( I'm pretty sure that it's somewhere in my house...

I can't post too much because I have a sh*tload of readings to do for tomorrow morning. I'm such a procrastinator ahhhh!! But look at these super cute paintings that I found on www.pbteen.com. I love the chihuahua one because it looks exactly like my dog Enya! I'm thinking about buying it but it's friggen $156 BEFORE tax and shipping. I don't know if I can justify spending that much! The purple bulldog painting is pretty cute too. I decided that I'm going to cover one of my bedroom walls with pictures and artwork and I'm definitely going to have one painting of a chihuahua in there. It has to look like my dog though!
