Picture Every Day for a Year
Filed Under blogging, internet, lauren, photography, random | 11 Comments
So after getting my new camera:
I’ve decided that I’m going to take one picture a day for one whole year. I’m going to try to find a theme to do each month, but I need one to start off with! Any suggestions? It can be anything!
I’ve made a flickr account, and once I get a theme I’ll put pictures on it, and put the address up on here so you all can look at my super exciting life…which includes driving to Ottawa a lot, and working!
Edit-by the way, the cameras name is Sophie Dallas, because there is an SD in the type name.

Six Unimportant Facts about Lauren
Filed Under cats, lauren, skiing | 8 Comments
Here are my six facts!
1) Before I started university I had never had Starbucks…like ever. But my roommate wanted me to go with her one day before class and I got a White Mocha, and needless to say, I never looked back.
2) I have ski raced for 12 out of the 18 years I’ve been alive at our local ski hill. Also 11 out of 12 of those years I won “High Points Female” on our team-that is the girl on the team who had the most points at the end of the season. Also at that hill I, along with 3 of the other fiveblondes ski/snowboard instructed, and I also coached a ski team of 10-12 year olds last year. I pretty much used to live there in the winter, and unfortunately I can’t this winter because I’m 6 hours away.
3) Two summers ago I worked in Minden for the Ministry of Natural Resources as an Ontario Junior Ranger. I stayed from July 1st until August 18th in cabins in the middle of nowhere with about 20 other girls.We did things like making hiking and cross-country ski trails, go on canoe trips and camping trips, and visiting the other camps around the province. It was a greaat summer and I’m still in touch with the girls I worked with.
4) I bite my fingernails. It’s horrible and I know, but I just can’t stop no matter how much I’ve tried. This past summer I stopped for a couple of weeks because I was cleaning bathrooms and thought it was pretty gross, haha. Even though I’ve started biting them since then, for some reason I still don’t bite my right pinky fingernail. Who knows why, I just don’t. Looking back to my Lent post, I always try to stop biting my fingernails for Lent, but I’ve recently realized that it doesn’t work, so I’ve given up giving that up.
5) I’ve never had a haircut that I’m really happy with. I always bring in pictures of what I want my bangs to look like, but it never looks like it. I try to explain how I want it different, but I’m really bad at it. I’ve decided that next time I’m going to just take charge and say “no. I want it exactly like THIS picture.” Probably going to be hard for me.
6) I love my big, manly, fat cat named Herman. He’s the cutest thing ever, but you would never think so to look at him. Recently when I was at home I walked in on Herman licking Dragon Baby’s (our other, younger cat) face. It was super cute, so I said “AWW boys!” and grabbed my camera, but all I got was this picture:
okay I have another one…
7) I LOOVE baking! Every time I come home for the week or weekend I bake something. When I went home for reading week I baked cookies at night, then when I woke up they were gone :(. D (Ericas fiance) got a cookbook for christmas from Oma, and I saw cakes in it that I reallly want to make someday. Something like this maybe? haha:
It’s a Louis Vuitton purse cake!There are my six facts! Sorry they’re so late by the way. I couldn’t think of any, then the formatting kept messing up. I should probably learn how to fix all that eh?
