I have PODS... (February Favourites)

Today is the day...
Today is the end of February 2010   :(

My highlight of this month is the 2010 Winter Olympics
held in my home and native land, 
beautiful British Columbia.
 CANADA

& now it is all donzo...   wahhhh! :(

From the Olympics, Canadians not only gained 26 medals (14 GOLD..holla!!)
but we also gained excitement, pride & glory.

Like many other Vancouverites, I am now suffering from PODS
Post Olympic Distress Syndrome.

Oh Canada, I am so proud & I lover you! :)

Moving Along...

Since it is the end of February, I will share my most favourites of February... 

(WOW! Please excuse my PUFFY EYES. Zero sleep, Can you tell?)

I received this gorgeous green {faux} snake skin wallet from the beautiful Alex.
Adore her & her cute and insightful blog and videos.. Thx Alex




 Hello!
I apologize for being blog absent. 
I have been soaking up all the Olympics. 
The past 2 weeks have been Canada day, everyday. 
It will be strange returning to "normal" routine... 
But, I will definitely have more time to blog & communicate with all my blog buddies :)


As you can tell, I had a fantastic February! 
Tell me.
How was your February?
& What were some of your favourites in February?

PS

Mine were:
  • Canada vs. USA gold medal hockey game (women & men)
  • Bilodeau winning Olympic gold (1st 2010 gold medal for Canada)
  • Kim Yu-Na on ice

Really cute pics! Thanks for sharing your favorites with us. ^___^

My favorites? The moments when I turned my essay in! Hahaha. I know, way too absorbed into the evilness of school. But I'm so happy to see all you Canadian bloggers with your pride! Patriotism is always so admirable. :3

Hehe, sorry if I'm not making much sense. xD It's 2 in the morning~~ Whooo.

Jean said...

You look so cute with the lip stain there : ) My favorite moment was probably kim Yu-Na on ice. I'm not Korean but her story was so darn touching and her smile lit up the room.

I'm glad you had such an amazing time with the Olympics being hosted basically where you live!!! It really is a once in a lifetime experience.

I love shorts with tights too!!! But I haven't been brave enough to pull it off yet ;_;

Susie said...

Those mittens are so cute! Haha :P
I definitely loved watching Kim Yu-Na ice skate! She's amazing. But now since there's no more Olympics, I feel like there's nothing to watch on TV anymore :( Hahhaha. I'll just have to wait for the World Cup.

WOOO CANADA! I must say, I'm experiencing post olympic withdrawal too. :( It was a GREAT two weeks though!! Of course, the gold medal hockey game was the BEST. I've been pretty blog absent too. Funny how olympics can do that to ya!

serenadeveryday said...

February was nice. Nothing big happened for me though other than Lunar New Years and [kinda] Valentine's day. I think it was best spending so much time bonding with family, all the gatherings and dinner. LOVE family time.

I love wearing shorts with tights as well!! My friends always make fun of me for it though. That's how often I do it.

side note: you have a gorgeous smile.

monica said...

1. love the snakeskin
2. GO CANADA FOR OWNING THE WINTER OLYMPICS!

Amy said...

how do you get away wearing shorts w/tights? (what kind of shorts and shoes?) I'm still trying to do this and I've only done it a few times...haha. so fashion clueless sometimes.

fave olympic moments...SHAUN WHITE. Yu-Na Kim was PERFECTION of course.

I love Canadian patriotism!! woo hoo!

Klaudea said...

My favourite olympic moment was hearing the anthem being sung EVERYWHERE and getting high fived EVERYWHERE and seeing a sea of red and white!

I love the way you did you're favourites btw :)

Hope you are recovering from your PODS. I hate how it seems like olympics never happened in vancouver now. But i still smile everytime i see an canada flag on a car or someone wearing canada gear :)

MissS.elle said...
