little ray of sunshine
to brighten up your day
no title necessary
I love when you become aware of a new thing and then you notice it EVERYWHERE. It fascinates me how many things are out there that we pass by every day that we may not be aware of. I just became aware of the phrase NSFW (not safe for work) thanks to my lovely boyfriend Michael (http://ohtheday.tumblr.com/) and now I am seeing it EVERYWHERE. Obviously I’m not looking at these things at work….
New obsession : GIRLS
Lena Dunham, you are my fucking hero. First reason being that we are almost-birthday twins (just off by one day and one year). Second reason being that you are absolutely incredible in every way possible. GIRLS is painfully perfect. The situations and relationships are exaggerated (or not so exaggerated) versions of the fucked up people and things that every one of us has to endure on a daily basis. From the accidental dick pic, to the awkward virgin desperate to have sex, to the ex boyfriend turned gay (inspired by you), the experiences these girls have are undeniably, hilariously, and embarrassingly relatable. GIRLS encompasses the unsure, experimental young adult lost in a technological age flawlessly. Amazing writing, amazing actors, amazing amazing amazing!
The scene where Hannah approaches Adam in attempts to break up with him, spills her heart in a jumbled mess, and ends up back in his apartment five minutes later….yeah, fuck that guy.
Stole this from my friends at Spirit Hoods. So good. So true :)
Watch this. Laugh.

Spring Has Sprung! 9 Tips To Maximize Your Workouts Outside
Spring has sprung and this girl is taking advantage! The bulk of my workouts are OUTSIDE during these months: playgrounds, parks, parking lots, the canal, the mountain - the city becomes my ‘gym’. I’m on my 5th ‘outsy’ in a week, and feeling oh, sooooo good. Just the thing I needed. :)
Working out outside has MANY perks: it’s free, fresh and you can do something different everyday. Unlike working out at home or at the gym, you’re free to explore the world and play without confinement or limitations. It can be a lot of fun (and a great mood booster), but despite all it’s awesomeness, there are a few drawbacks to getting sweaty on the go. If you’re smart, they are fairly easy to overcome with a wee bit of planning.When it comes to getting sweaty outside, here are a few takeaways, tips, tricks and ideas that I’ve accumulated over the last few years!
9 SWEAT OUTSIDE Tips
1. Don’t ditch your old, dirty yoga mats! Old mats are the bomb. Your brand new, gorgeous, super expensive yoga mat WILL get dirty on the go. Save it for fancy yoga class, and bring old ratty-tat-mat with you to the park. (Towels & blankets work too, or you can buy a cheaper mat for your outdoor adventures for around $15-$25 bucks).
2. Not all parks are lean, clean havens. When doing work on the ground, take a quick look and make sure you’re not about to put your hands in glass, trash, dog poop, little rocks etc. I always have sanitizer & bandaids with me: you never know when you’ll need them and I don’t want to have to slow down if I can help it. I also like to wear gloves when working out outdoors: less mess, a little padding and yeah, they make me feel bad ass. You can opt for a fancy pair of workout lifting gloves, or inexpensive, plain cut off, cotton winter mini-gloves.
3. Bring water (duh) and a snack (double duh). Make sure to eat before, but have something ready to nosh on if you’re doing a long workout (if you have to stop for a snack when you’re already hungry, chances are it won’t be as good for you). I like bananas, carrots, protein bars, and even sometimes a small turkey/chicken wrap.
