Week 51: Best Friend Adventures (Anissa): Christmas Celebration

MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FELLOW BLOGGERS

This was my FIRST every Christmas by myself! So, I was invited to my bestie Christmas Dinner! I had lazied around the whole day and fell asleep. Woke up JUST in time to quickly get dressed, do my makeup and go to my friends house for some good food!!!!

I must say My Makeup was ON POINT! I dont think I'm really good with makeup (my skin tone really helps me achieve many bright colors for eyeshadow esp) but I really think I did pretty good job today for this evening makeup! I was really debating on my dress. It's a beautiful dress but very revealing due to the lace top! I couldn't find anything better to wear and I decided "you know what, WHO CARES" Its not like I'm exposing my boobs (I wore a nice Black Bra). So, I wore that dress with pride (something I would probably not be able to do before)

When I got there, many people already there (I was late) but I came in just in time for them to start so I was grateful! We said a little prayer, Thanking Lord for the privilege of having such food and people around us and being alive to recieve such blessings and forgiveness.

SO MUCH FOOD

The Food was AMAZING, the Cake esp was SOOO adorable and for my amazing bestie for accomplishing her goals and dreams!

Such a Beautiful Cake!

We had some white wine and played some video games, watched the tourist and it was just really enjoyable celebration!

My Partner in Crime <3~

Anissa LOVED her gift (got her a Kate Spade Wallet) and I LOVED MY GIFT! It had so much meaning (even when I was drunk). She defiantly knows my likes :D (well blog about it later)

For my first Christmas, with my precious family far away, my best friend made worth while and I met new people and made new friends! Can not be more grateful for such friends <3 Since I was SOOO drunk (not even funny, I was GONE), I stayed over and went boxing day shopping in the morning (didn't have a hangover, thank goodness).

Summary of my Night

Merry Christmas Everyone and Hope you All Had a Wonderful Day <3~

Week 49: Friend Adventures (Fenan)- Moxies

On December 5th, I got to chill with my friend Fenan! We decided we would go to Yorkdale Moxies Grill & Bar for lunch. This was my day off so I could take my sweet time walking around the mall and also catchup with my girl!

I've known Fenan since 2nd year of nursing. We got close during our Samba (or whatever its called lol) and African Dancing class that we took in summer to gain extra credits (so we would have a less course load during our final year in Nursing. Since than we try to keep in touch and still message one another every couple of months as a "pulse check" haha.

I usually only go to Moxies cause of their famous White Chocolate Brownie, which I LOVE. The service overall was okay (I think our sever was training another girl but they both kept checking on us to see if our meal was good etc). Food took a bit long as well but it was busy (there was a birthday party celebration right next to us with some 14 year olds so -3-).

I ordered a Strawberry Daiquiri (never tried Moxies drinks before) for starters as I viewed the main courses.

I normally order chicken wings (doesn't matter the restaurant), but decided to try something different and would be more filling to me. I ended up ordering the Lunch special which is a choice between the Broccoli and Cheese Soup or the Soup of the day, with Half Beef Dip Sandwich (consist of beef, swiss cheese, and mushrooms).

Of course for dessert, I got my White Chocolate Brownie! I should have mentioned that I wanted the mini version than the full size (now that Im working on my fitness and weight loss,), I had a bit of difficulty finishing it compared to few months back.

Overall, it was nice catching up with a good friend!

I'm a person who knows many people but Im pretty picky now a days with who I chill with and who I make time for. I guess it comes with age and experience, but I don't waste time on individuals who either give the "Im busy" excuse or who don't contact me for more than 2-3 months. I just don't see why I should make time for them with my busy schedule (I work on average 72-90 hours in 2 weeks and thats just "work". Doesn't include my workouts, etc). Also for those who always give the excuse that Im busy with work or school etc, as I stated above, I'm just as busy or more (I have a career not a part time job) but I balance my hangouts and try to fit anyone in my schedule

Anyways, thats my little rant about people LOL. Fenan is another awesome individual that I like to keep in my circle of friends. I love her character overall. She has a similar outlook as me in terms of people and it was just nice to catchup and update one another about our work/personal life and just talk about general girly stuff XD

Thanks Fenan for the chillage <3 ~

Till Next Time...
