In The Shower Thoughts! Episode 9 - The Gift That In The Shower Thoughts! Episode 9 - The Gift That Disappeared 🎁 🐶🐾 This time of year always brings me back to one specific Christmas memory. I was asking my mom for a dog for a very long time! I just loved how cuddly they were and just thought it would be fun to have a furry friend around. Also just saw a bunch of my friends with their dogs and how adorable it was when they used to rush at them once they opened that door and got home. My mom is super nice - and always wanted to get me what I wanted - but one thing that just never quite sat right with her - was getting a dog. I think it had a lot to do with a really bad experience that she had with a dog that lived on her street when she was younger. I ran up to her one day and bit her - leaving her with a scar - a physical one and mental one unfortunately.  Christmas Eve rolls around and we start cooking up a delicious dinner - we had everything that night! Turkey, Mashed Potatoes, Salad and a delicious dessert! We went to bed at around 11 p.m. and we all fell asleep quickly. 🛌 I woke up at around 4 a.m. and walked downstairs to grab a glass of warm milk - those always help me fall back asleep pretty quickly. 🥛As I head back upstairs I hear a rustle under the tree. I walk a bit closer it looks like one of the boxes is moving - huh? Did mom get me a dog? I got to grab the box - but it's fully wrapped and when I shake it a little - nothing happens - there is no noise. #Wierd. 🤔 I fall back asleep and wake up in the morning only to notice that that one box was missing. I asked everyone about it - but they all looked clueless. To this day - I honestly don't know what happened that night. It remains a mystery to me!  Something that is no mystery to me is how important my skincare regime is and how much it matters to really take care of myself - every single day! 🤍🙏 @edobio.japan skincare integrates cutting-edge Japanese biotechnology with the ancient natural ingredients that have been in development since the Edo period. EDOBIO optimises the skin’s natural abilities by soothing it with the timeless nourishment of natural ingredients! #christmas #skincare #mystery #gifts #spooky #dog #Japan
Bite This - Episode 36 In this episode, we chat t Bite This - Episode 36 In this episode, we chat through some fun festive facts starting with a rule that New Zealanders follow when it comes to advertising on holidays. All advertising is halted on Christmas, Easter, Good Friday, ANZAC Day. That is not a bad at all! 📺📡 Speaking of traditions and rules around the world - let's look at something fun that happened far out in space! In 1965 two astronauts performed Jingle Bells in space to mission control. The two astronauts names are Walter M. Schirra Jr. and Thomas P. Stafford. I wonder where they will perform next! 😉🌌🌚 Lastly, if you have ever seen Christmas Vacation - and love watching Chevy Chase outfit his house with several lights - you'll love seeing a real-life version in Delmenhorst Germany 🏡. Their house has over 60 000 lights on it - can you imagine that? 🎄 #christmasvacation #christmas #Holidays #hannukah #space #jinglebells #newzealand #chevychase #easter #goodfriday #astronauts #starwars

Bite This - Episode 35 In this episode we chat th Bite This - Episode 35 In this episode we chat through the importance of bees and research that shows they might very well have the ability to poke holes into the envelopes of the HIV virus! Another incredible thing that bees do for us! Then we jump into the world of film! Many of you are likely familiar with the series "Breaking Bad". For all of you who wanted the show to go on just a little bit longer - well it seems the producers of the show were looking to do just that. They offered the cast of Breaking Bad an opportunity to shoot another 3 episodes - the final 3 for a total of $75 Million. Lastly we talk about the real Tarzan who lived in the forest for 41 years. Turns out that he never knew that women actually existed. Imagine that! #hiv #bees #virus #breakingbad #tarzan #millions #toronto #canada
In The Shower Thoughts! Episode 8 - What The?? Th In The Shower Thoughts! Episode 8 - What The?? This time of year always reminds me of a time when I was studying so hard for a test that was coming up, that I literally didn't sleep for about 3 days. Ok, I got a little bit of sleep - but honestly it was literally almost nothing. So once the test day came around - I pumped myself up with a ton of caffeine - not the best thing for sure - but it did the trick at the time - and I got through that hour like a champ. Once I left the classroom and started to head home - boy did it hit me! I started to fall asleep on the bus ride home and by the time I actually got home - I didn't even want to eat - I just went straight to bed. So I get up the next day - start making my favourite breakfast - pancakes and waffles please - then I hear a knock at the door! Hmm. ok. I wasn't expecting anyone to come over. I open the door and there was a huge media crew - and a ton of confetti was suddenly thrown up in the air and they announced that I had one the contest to fly to LA and spend a day with Lady Gaga! Oh my gosh - that sounded amazing - I had entered into something months ago and just thought there was no chance. They told me my flight was scheduled for the next day - so I started packing up everything quickly and pulling all of my favourite outfits into my suitcase. The next day I head to the airport and eventually board the plane - settle myself in and then doze off for a bit. When I wake up - I'm back in my bed - what the ?? You mean it was all a dream?  ... Keeping a beautiful glow in the daily is something that requires maintenance and a focus on self-care. Self-care on the inside and on the outside. @Dermaniche makes that process such an effortless one! Their products are literally embedded into my lifestyle in every way - whether it's the morning and I'm looking to start things off right - or it's mid-day and I'm looking for a little Fresh mist - their Self-Care Package is there to set me up for a great day.

Bite This - Episode 34 - The Superfood Honey, PCP Bite This - Episode 34 - The Superfood Honey, PCP in Clam Chowder, Longest Staring Contest Ever In today's episode we talk about are very important friends the bees. As we know they produce honey - food source that is packed with literally everything - vitamins, minerals, and water - plus it comes packed with an antioxidant called #pinocembrin supposed to help with brain function.  Speaking of things that can happen to our brains - interestingly enough - when the cast for Titanic was filming - there was a day on set when everybody started having hallucinations and feeling sick. Well, turns out that the clam chowder had been spiked with PCP. Over 50 staff members were affected - and many of them were hospitalized.  Lastly, if you've ever enjoyed having a staring contest - definitely next level! There is a record of two people staring at each other for 40 mins and 59 seconds.  #creepiest #scariest #bees #honey #titanic #clamchowder #vitamins #minerals #water #brain #soup #leonardodicaprio #starringcontest #guinessworldrecord #sick

In The Shower Thoughts - Episode 7 - My First Time In The Shower Thoughts - Episode 7 - My First Time On A Plane ✈️ Thinking back to the very first time that I hopped on a plane - I remember being very nervous. I was not all that young - the ripe age of 20. I head to the airport - say bye to my family - shed a few tears of course - then I head to security. That all went pretty smoothly, but they did take away my super expensive perfume - 120 ML - rookie mistake clearly! Once I make it through security I head over to my gate and the waiting game starts! Two hours pass and finally they start boarding. I look ahead at the screen in front as I'm waiting in line and realize the destination is not 'Paris' - it says 'Milan'. What the!!! So then I rush to the front desk and they confirm that the gate changed - and the new gate number was going to be a 10 minute walk from this one! Oh man! The sprinting starts - I am running as fast as I can with everything in hand - and when I finally get to the correct gate - I am literally the last one to board! All of the baggage spots were booked up as well - ugghh - but then one of the flight attendants kindly asked if I wanted my baggage to be stored in the captain's closet - oh okay! That was helpful! I went to find my seat and finally located it - yeah! I made it - and now I am ready to go!  We take off and I start selecting my movie. Three hours in it gets really bumpy. This was my first time experiencing turbulence, so I honestly have no idea what 'normal' was and what 'abnormal' was. The captain eventually comes on the PA and says that he has moved us to a new altitude - so the ride should be smooth going forward. The rest of the flight was great and I went on to have an incredible time in Paris. Teamed up with the @moxy.paris.bastille for a super fun stay this month and to explore the city I love so much! There are fun quotes everywhere, the staff are super friendly - my friend 'Mr. Bunny' is always there to say hi to me and share a drink - and the vibes are always so positive. Thank you to the entire team for welcoming us in such a beautiful way! Can't wait to come back again soon! Xo 🇫🇷🗼🤍🙏🥐 #Paris #Travel #Plane #Moxy #MoxyBastille #CityOfLove #CityOfLights

Episode 6 - In The Shower Thoughts - A Day To Rem Episode 6 - In The Shower Thoughts - A Day To Remember So, I actually attended John McCrae for 2 years while going through my Grade 7 & 8 years! The famous poem written by John McCrae himself - "In Flanders Fields" - was always hung up the walls - each floor featured a frame that hosted this beautiful piece. When Remembrance would come around - we would all be asked to come together and gather in the gym for the official ceremony. The first time I attended this ceremony - there was one student in particular who just didn't want to come and join - they were being really rowdy and creating a ruckus - it was holding up the entire ceremony. The teacher finally got them to come down to the gym, where we were all gathered, but this person (who will remain unnamed) was still creating a lot of problems. They were rustling around in their seat - making noises on purpose while other students were presenting - so as a last attempt to just settle the situation - the teacher had decided that she was going to swap out the student who had originally been selected to go up with the wreath ... and send this other student instead. When they approached the stage - we all suddenly heard a huge thump! All of the wreaths fell down at the same time 😱 We were all in shock but also glad to see that it definitely put a scare into this person. Let's just say that they definitely stopped being problematic after that! Was it John McCrae in the house or just a coincidence? 🤔👻 Who knows? All I know for certain is that this is definitely an important day - one that needs to be acknowledged and appreciated by all who have the opportunity to stand here today and be a part of this ceremony 🌸🙏 Thanks to the @royalcanadianlegion - we continue to be reminded of the importance of the Poppy and of all of the sacrifices that have been made to give us the freedom that we have today. We can carry this with us in our hearts and as we walk through life - sporting our beautiful gear offered up on the Poppy store (www.poppystore.ca) all year round. Let's take a moment to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Poppy in this special way. #Poppy100 #RemembranceDay #LestWeForget #War #Freedom

Thoughts in the Shower - Episode 5 - Hotel Mystery Thoughts in the Shower - Episode 5 - Hotel Mystery Whenever I visit a new destination and check into the hotel - this one experience always comes to mind! There was a trip from a few years back - my besties and I were ramping up for an amazing weekend! When we arrived at the hotel - we were told that this was a very old hotel - and had been recently renovated - so it had all of the cleanliness and modernity of a new hotel, but also all of the charm of an older hotel - built with love and character. I also personally read up it and saw previous guests comment that there was paranormal activity. That night - I started touring the hotel and checked out their mini-theatre first - when I walked in - the door shut behind me - a loud bang. I rushed to open it back up - but it was locked. OMG! What? I also left my cellphone upstairs - 'not smart at all'.  I start looking around to see if there are any other exits - and suddenly hear a little voice - 'look for the small door', she says. At the time I was honestly in such shock that I wasn't even thinking about the fact that a random voice was giving me directions - I just wanted to find a way out! Eventually I saw this little door right underneath the stage and opened it up - it led me right to another small door that took me to the back room behind the reception desk. Wow - what just happened? The hotel staff were looking at me in shock - but I was just happy to have finally made it out. When I got to chatting with them - they said they had no idea that exit even existed and the little voice - nobody knows where that came from. What they did tell me is that there was a little girl who used to live in the hotel with her parents over a hundred years ago - and her favourite place to hide was under the stage. Currently having the best time at @ameronneckarvillen 🏩 The charm, architecture and character really take me to a different place and time. I am mesmerized by every single detail and how well everything comes together. Not only is the decor top notch and absolutely out of this world amazing - but their @FrenchBentoBar and Restaurant (@lepetitroyalfrankfurt ) are honestly top class. 🤍🙏 #hotel #mystery
Bite This - Episode 32 - Aliens, Ghosts and Bill C Bite This - Episode 32 - Aliens, Ghosts and Bill Clinton's Friend's mysterious deaths In 2017, John and Joyce Edmonds put their 10 acre desert ranch in Rainbow Valley, Arizona, up for sale because John said he had grown tired of fighting off aliens. Over 20 years, he claims to have slain 18 aliens with a samurai sword  and to have fought off hundreds more. The mother of a 3 year old boy shares some details about a time her son was trying to take a picture of her - but didn't realize that the camera was backwards. He took a few photos - but they were just photos of himself. Then she secured the camera again and started deleting the photos so that he could take photos again - but looking out at her this time - and as she started deleting - she noticed that one of the photos had captured a face behind her son. She never saw that person in her life - and it was just herself and her son at home. #spooky Lastly, when it comes to Hillary and Bill Clinton - they have a circle of friends that spans out to about 57 people - 15 dying from suicide, 8 have died in plane crashes and other accidents, 14 have been murdered in mysterious ways. This definitely brings up a lot of questions and makes one think a bit.  Hope you enjoyed today's episode - please feel free to come back for more!  #aliens #ghosts #farm #creepy #halloween
Episode 4 - Thoughts in the Shower 🚿Thinking ba Episode 4 - Thoughts in the Shower 🚿Thinking back to this funniest thing that happened to me a couple of years ago - well, it's funny now because I can look back and laugh at it - but it definitely wasn't all that funny at the time. 😂 My friend is a really fantastic make-up artist and does the 'BEST' Hallowe'en looks! That year - she was giving me an awesome witch look! 🧹 As she was putting this cool green foundation on - I started eating away at the little chocolate candy bites in the bowl next to me. Love how Halloween candy is always packaged in those cute tiny 'trick or treat' sizes  - right? That's when the real math skills start kicking in right - 1 + 1 + 2 + 3 +1 ... hmmmm ... I guess that's kind of like just eating 1 normal sized chocolate bar - not that bad - right? lol 🍫🍫🍫 So the evening continues and she is just about to wrap up my look when something gets stuck in my teeth. My jaw is literally glued together. 😱 I started laughing then crying then laughing again - it was honestly the hardest ... stickiest taffy I have ever eaten! I rushed to the bathroom to rinse my mouth out and brush my teeth - just get this cleared out as fast as I possibly could! I pick up the tube next to me and start brushing away. 🪥 I'm starting to feel some immediate relief - and then literal burning right after - whatttttt?? What did I just put in my mouth? I look back at the tube and realize that it is a heat muscle relaxant that burns - OMG! My mouth is literally ON #FIRE!!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️ I do everything I can in that moment to wash it out as fast as possible - and then just sit back in shock. My mouth just went through the craziest experience - but at the end of the day - my look was still intact and I went on to celebrate Hallowe'en in a great way! 🎃 @dermaiche.aesthetics has the most incredible spa offerings - from laser hair removal to skin rejuvenation to body reshaping and more - and the most fabulous collagen treatments that leave you with the best glow you could possibly imagine! Always feels great to set aside some incredible self-care moments - can't get enough of those - right? 🙏😊 @dermaniche #halloween #costume #collagen #skincare #glow
Bite This - Episode 31 - Aliens, Leeches & The Blo Bite This - Episode 31 - Aliens, Leeches & The Bloody Mary of Japan 🟥 In 1942, the LA times posted this picture showing an alien craft being shot at by the military. The craft was spotted on radar, and as it got closer to the city, over 140,000 mortar shells were fired. The very next day, the military claimed it was nothing but a weather balloon. A woman from Edinburgh, Scotland had frequent nosebleeds which she believed was because of a motorbike crash. while in the shower, she felt something poking out of her nose, and it turned out the reason of the nosebleeds was actually a 3 inch long leech living in her nose. Japanese high schools have a ghost story similar to "Bloody Mary" in America. Hanako of the toilet: a ghost of a schoolgirl who supposedly haunts a bathroom stall. She can be banished by showing her a quiz that got a perfect grade.

Often in life we find it difficult to relate to ot Often in life we find it difficult to relate to others. It can be challenging to put ourselves in other people's shoes for a moment in time - to literally just have empathy for others and get a true understanding of what their day-to-day lives look like (and feel like). When I first met Oksana (@ok_kovtun) - she was able to really give me a glimpse into her life and was able to explain what it feels like to lose everything, to feel helpless and completely in shock - some of this extracted from her own personal experiences - and other details shared were based off of experiences that friends and family had gone through. It's hard to understand unless you really take the time to connect, communicate, ask and ultimately listen. Once you can really empathize with others - you can start identifying the best ways to help them. Afghanistan is experiencing a humanitarian crisis as violence and insecurity have brought more suffering and internal displacement for thousands of Afghans. Nearly 665,000 Afghans have been forced to flee since the start of 2021, with 80% of these being women and children. Most displaced Afghans remain within the country. @UNHCR_Canada is urging the international community to urgently step up its support to respond to the needs of Afghanistan and its people. Despite immense challenges and a rapidly evolving humanitarian emergency, @UNHCR_Canada and partners in Afghanistan are committed to stay and deliver protection and critical aid to displaced Afghans to address the immense and increasing human suffering.

Episode 3 - Thoughts in the Shower 🚿 The Case O Episode 3 - Thoughts in the Shower 🚿 The Case Of The Tumeric Face 🙀 So it all started out this one day a few years back. I was getting ready to go out with my friends to this awesome event - it was a gorgeous gala - expected to be the highlight of the season! 👗 I thought to myself - definitely have to get that glow going and start up with a new face mask that I heard was going to the best thing since slice bread 🍞 (Ok! That was more of a food reference, but you get the point 😉...right!) So I start whipping up this #magical tumeric face mask and start answering some emails - then catching up on one of my favourite shows in between and oh boy - time was a-ticking and I totally lost track ⏱️😯 So I go to wash off my tumeric face mask and OMG! My face is literally bright "yellow"! What am I going to do now? I pace around a bit then call up my mom and then one of my besties - and after about 2 hours of venting - I come to the conclusion that I just have to go this way! No other choice at this point. So I show up to the gala - of course everyone is starring at me - but then I get to talking and sharing my story and everyone had a good laugh and said that I could definitely pull it off 🤭 There was media there that night - they just couldn't get over my look and started snapping photos left right and centre! To my surprise - I landed in the paper the next day and they wrote up a whole story on me! 📰 You know what they always say - When life gives you lemons, make lemonade 🍋 Don't let one thing stop you - just make the most of what you have an appreciate all of your experiences! Been obsessed with @drinkgldnhour beverages lately and love that they are all about feeding beauty from the inside out! Love sipping away at it while I'm 'beautifying" on the outside 🤍 Feel like I am getting the two things done at once! #nosugar #lowcalorie #collagen #sparklingwater #beautysecrets #secrets
Bite This - Candy Corn + White House Ghosts & Tric Bite This - Candy Corn + White House Ghosts & Trick Or Treating. 1. Candy corn was originally called Chicken Feed Though many would argue that candy corn tastes like chicken feed, that's not how it got its original name. Created in the 1880s by George Renninger, it was sold to the masses by Goelitz Confectionery Company (now Jelly Belly Co.) at the turn of the century. Because corn is what was used to feed chickens, the creation was called "Chicken Feed" and the box was marked with a colorful rooster. 2. The White House is haunted  The United States' most famous address has had several reports of ghostly appearances and eerie sounds – and that's not even including election years! The most common ghost sighting is of Abraham Lincoln who has been spotted by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands and Sir Winston Churchill. Other paranormal guests include Andrew Jackson, David Burns and Abigail Adams. 3. Trick-or-treating comes from "souling" Having children dress up in costumes and go door-to-door like little beggars demanding treats is kind of weird. Like several other Halloween activities, the tradition can be traced back to the Middle Ages and the rituals of Samhain. It was believed that phantoms walked the earth on the night of Samhain, so people would dress up in costumes in an effort to repel the spirits. As the Catholic Church started supplanting pagan festivals with their own holidays (like All Souls' Day), the act of souling became popular, and poor children and adults would go door-to-door dressed as spirits accepting food in exchange for prayers.

Thoughts in the Shower 🚿 - Episode 2 - What's s Thoughts in the Shower 🚿 - Episode 2 - What's scarier than a ghost? 👻🤔 While traveling to Colombia a few years back in October - I discovered so many beautiful sights, smells, good people and their customs. 🇨🇴 The one I found most interesting was La Chancla ("The Sandal"). It's funny to think that a lightweight article of clothing - has managed to bring so much fear onto anyone faced with it, in the Latin culture. 🩴I remember when I saw these kids running away from their mothers in a panic, because of the fear that was ingrained in them. You didn't do your homework? 📃 Solution - Chancla ✅ You didn't eat your vegetables? 🥦🥕🥒 No? Solution: Chancla ✅ Did you just talk back to the parents? 🗣️ Solution - Chancla ✅ In one particular instance, there was a little boy who was going to get punished and he came hiding panic behind me 🙈 hahah - it's as if he saw a ghost! 👻😂 Poor kid 😔 When I grew up, I started to look at the Chancla in a whole new way! Every step in life counts, so always great to take care of your feet and the journey that they embark on, throughout life. 🙌 Thankfully my @bmzflipflops are keeping my feet in good shape! 🩴🤍🙏 They are built with biodegradeble bases, foot arch support, interchangeable straps, their animal cruelty free and so much more! The way I like to see it, whatever you throw out to the universe, well it comes right back at yah! So be good and good things are bound to come your way! 🤍🙏 #creepy #scariest #halloween #hallow #halloweencostume #october #boomerangz #biodegradeable #interchangeablestraps #animalcrueltyfree #toronto #canada
