  • i'm just gonna take a minute

    another year, another big time out. and what a party that was. two straight days of acting and dressing like a rave-obsessed gypsy was just what the doctor ordered my friends. add to that the fact that walter and i got to spend hours and hours together and it was probably the most ultimate thing eeeever. the only downside was my mild sunstroke and burnt hairline.but obviously it was completeeeellly worth it. i was right up front for broken social scene and despite getting several elbows to the face and being way closer to aidan dalle vedove than i ever anticipated, it was pretty awesome. i did lose one pair of shades (the dark ones) and break the others (the pink ones walter's wearing) and walter lost his shoes, but that's pretty standard for big time out.



    as you can see, i keep a classy crown of friends. they were pretty strict about bag checks though, so drinking had to be done at the campsite in chug sesh's. all i really remember was drinking rum, then coke, then everclear, then cranberry juice, in that order, several times, really quickly. and marijuana was obviously present as well. it's nearly impossible to describe the incredible energy  and vibe that was present all weekend so i don't think i'll even try. all i can say is... go to a music festival. and check out humans, vitaminsforyou, mutaytor and DJP. they killed it. i could dance to them for hours and hours. i'm stoked on next years BTO and possible Shambalah!


    (yes, i am a dirty hippie. or a raging gypsy. whichever you prefer.)

  • turn it up, 'cause it's gettin heavy

    Recently, I've become a little OCD about keeping my skin flawless. I have a rigorous washing, cleansing and moisturizing routine, as well as a few dabs of Bio Oil here and there. But my faaaavourite thing to do for my face comes in the form of a little one-use facial mask:

    (I use these, except they're Balea brand, not Life)

    Whenever I need an extra boost, I just plaster on one of these miracle-workers after my shower. They're super gentle, and I've never had an allergic reaction (which is rare for me), and they're really cheap too (I get 3 for 5$ at Shopper's Drug Mart).

    Have you ever tried these facial masks? Which is your favourite?

  • professing my love for Bio-Oil

    I am proud to say that I have finally found a skin product that is nothing short of magic. BIO-OIL.

    It's marketed for stretch marks and scars, and it actually works wonders! I HAD (past-tense!) stretch marks all over my boobs from a rapid weight gain about a year ago. I've since lost all the weight, but the stretch marks were still present. Bio-Oil was on sale, so i decided oh why not, and I bought it. It says it starts working after about 3 months, but I've seen results after just over 1 month!

    It's safe to say I'm absolutely in love with Bio-Oil. It's natural, preservative-free, smells fantastic, and makes my hands soft from applying it! It's also very accessable and not expensive at all. I also sometimes use it on my face when it's dry, and obviously that gives amazing results as well.

     

    Has anyone else used Bio-Oil? Did it work as well as it has for me?

  • we've got nothing to worry about

    of the many changes walter has induced in me, one stands out the most to me.
    i want everyone to actively know that i, tiffany shelswell, am dating and madly in love with walter parsons.

    before, when i was in a relationship, i'd be cool with holding hands in public and maybe a quick goodbye kiss. but i didn't necessarily feel the desire for everyone to know i was with the guy. i didn't want people NOT to know, and i wasn't embarassed, but people knowing wasn't my number one priority.

    now, all i want to talk about is walter. walter walter waaaalllter. but of course, i'm pretty atuned to what my friends do and do not like, so i don't do this. therefore, i blog about him and him only. because he's basically the only thing that matters to me, the only person i try my absolute hardest to keep, because he's the only one that makes me feel fantastic, all the time.

    i love you walter
    =)
