A Picture Is Worth A 1,000 Words.

I apologize for not keeping up with my blog, but what can I say? It's summer time, and that means I'm super-b busy with fabulous summer plans! This summer have been treating me wonderful lately, and I'm very grateful for each opportunity.

Jordan and I went to my cabin also known as paradise at Malachi, Ontario for a week with my family. I had a ton of opportunities to take wonderful shots because of the beautiful surrounding. Jordan and I finally became official again on July 15 after two months break, and we celebrated his birthday at the cabin as well. It was a fun-filled week!

We returned to Winnipeg for my cousin, Taylor's wedding. It was such an emotional day because my entire family have never seen my cousin so happy and in love with a girl before, and we welcomed Alicia into our family. The backyard setting for the wedding was perfectly gorgeous, but we all were under a huge white tent due to the on and off rain.
Shortly after the wedding, I got myself tattooed with two beautiful stars on my hip bones. It is a very spontaneous moment, and I don't regret it one bit. For people who are wondering why I chose stars, I'm absolutely absorbed into astronomy, and I'm always fascinated by them ever since I was a young lass.

My dear bestfriend, Chris, (the one who is holding a cup with pink straw) moved to Calgary yesterday for university. We had a mini farewell late lunch at an amazing crepe/bubble tea place, Kawaii Crepe. It was my friends' first visit, and they absolutely loved it there! It's pretty upsetting for all of us to let him go. I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving, so I could see him again.

Yesterday, Jordan and I went to Gimli because I've never been there, even though I lived in Winnipeg in my entire life. We brought my dear chihuahua, Cooper with us. It was an amazing afternoon because I pretty much fell in love with the town. It's so beachy, and reminds me a lot like Seaside, Oregon. (Jordan and I stayed there for a week for a beach volleyball tournament). Cooper definitely enjoyed himself as well, and he passed out the minute we got back to the car. So adorable!

Life's sweet.

BCC.


Today is a lonely day for me, well not so much 'cause I got another dog in the household! Currently dog-sitting Jordan's dog, Coco for the weekend while his fam is having a fam jam in Calgary for five days. Watching Coco meeting Buddy and Cooper was very interesting 'cause Cooper never gets along with any other dogs beside Buddy. He kept on trying to threaten Coco with his feeble growling and barking, so Coco finally had it with him, she barked loudly in his face. Ever since after that, Cooper follows her everywhere, just like if he worships the ground she walks on.

After bringing Coco home for the weekend, I went on a little photography field trip, in other terms, a walk with my Rebel. I was just keeping an eye out for interesting things to capture to experiment. A couple of shots were successful! I was pretty pleased with the results, and my mum absolutely love the daisy photo. (Photo #2)

Can't wait for this weekend 'cause one of my friends, Andrew, have a cabin by Grand Beach, and he is throwing a farewell party for my genius bestfriend, Chris. He will be moving to Calgary to attend University of Calgary and continue speed skating training. He went to Canada's 2011 Winter Games for speed skating, and he brought home a bronze medal. Anyways, back to the point, Andrew's cabin this weekend. More picture opportunities!

PS: Notice the title? BCC stands for Buddy, Cooper, and Coco! Genius, eh? ;)
