Saturday Night.

Background info: So I went for dinner for my friend Samara's birthday, and then we went out to Hatters. Unfortunately, it was some crazy boxing match and every seat was filled and there was barely standing room let alone a table for ten. So we kind of just stood until the match was over. I was with my friend Teddy. Anyways we had a great time until it was time to leave.

We go to get our jackets at the coat check and there is a table of guys who call us over. They ask us some question about the difference between homicide vs. assasination...whatever not the point. One of the guys at the table asks us if we are fans of R. Kelly. Great a 'you look 14 joke'. We explain that we are in fact 19 and they are shocked. Fun fact - they had a bet on it. Just Fabulous.

We tell them we get it we look twelve and one of the guys goes well you also look jewish. No surprise he was a Jew too. Jewdar at it's best. He then goes let me guess your names. He calls me Michelle and calls Teddy Rebecca. We tell him he got it wrong when he goes to me well then, your last name is White and hers is Green. Well 1/2 isn't bad. He wasn't surprised at all because and I quote "Jew last names, always a colour!" So true. We talk about CSL, Hampstead, Westmount and DDO and then make our ways out the door.
Though, the anti-ego boost is far from over.

Some guy outside smoking goes to us "Hey girls can I ask you something... don't take it the wrong way." Oh let me guess he wants to know if we are actually legal. Ha Ha we get it we look 12. He continues "I had a bet with my friends upstairs about your age, I guessed you were barely 18. So are you?" Thanks but we are on our way to 20. He was SHOCKED and apologized.


Nothing spells out a fun like two different set of guys betting against your legality...

Top 3 - Songs (for now)


Note: These are not my favorite songs of all time but merely my favorite songs of this week.

Narrowing down my playlist was quite the challenge and so was not choosing 3 Jack's Mannequin songs. Also knowing me, I will probably regret my choices within 2 seconds of posting this.
But here it goes anyways:


Jack's Mannequin - Swim
I discovered Jack's from One Tree Hill. I owe most of my iTunes library to that show. Out of 21 songs on the album I struggled to decide between Hammer and Strings and Swim both are awesome. I liked the Hammer and Strings melody more but Swim won because the lyrics deal which deal with his struggle with Leukemia are just so inspiring . I definitely suggest paying careful attention to the words.



The Band of Horse - Funeral
This song was a recommendation from one of my music gurus. It is a little old but I still love it and love them so I put it on my list.

The Funeral - Band Of Horses

Coconut Records - West Coast
This was a post summer discovery recommended by another a music guru. Fun Fact it features a Phantom Planet ex band member so if you nostalgic towards the O.C while listening you now know why.

West Coast - Coconut Records

p.s - I apologize that my Sunday Top 3 appears on a Tuesday
