Ola & Candice Sushi Adventures Part 2

Ola and I went to Newport Village today for our regular Sunday walk and sushi. We dont go every Sunday just every once and a while when it's sunny out. So nice to just sit and chat and drink green tea.

Happy 70th Grandma

 Last night was my Grandma's 70th birthday. We went for dinner downtown, and there was about 50 people. Saw lots of family I hadn't seen for a long time so it was really fun! Isn't my grandma cute with her hat and balloons?!!  

Failure to Launch!

So I love Sarah Jessica Parker so much (I'm a Sex in the City addict!) that I had to see this movie! I also love Matthew McConaughey so I definately had to see this movie! Tonight Lisa, Quentin and I went to see "Failure to Launch" I sat in the middle with the bag of popcorn so I didn't feel like the third wheel! haha, it was a cute romantic comedy with lots of funny parts but that's about it!

The movie website is really funny! Click here to take a test to see if he still lives at home!

Check out Lisa's blog where she comments on the previews!

Scary Snow!

Tonigh I was caught in a blizzard on my way home from work. A drive that usually takes about 25 minutes took over an hour! Cars were stopped on the streets and buses were not moving. It was late and I just wanted to get home. It was really scary when I tried to go up a hill, but was stopped because cars were turning around. I could not go anywhere and decided to do a u-turn myself. I really didn't know what to do so I decided to call my dad who did not understand why I had woken him this late. What was I thinking?... he was going to come rescue me at midnight?! Haha!

Paul Walker - Running Scared!

Last night I saw the movie "Running Scared" starring Paul Walker. It was really really good! Lots of action and suspense and I seriously was glued to the screen the whole time. I loved it!

18 days til the Sunshine State!!!

Time is absolutely flying by. It is finally starting to sink in that I will be in Florida in just under 3 weeks. Every day until then is starting to book up with things to do and people to see, and to tell you the truth I am starting to feel a bit nervous and overwhelmed. March used to seem so far away, but now here I am with a million things to do and think about and I know before I know it I will be in soaking up the sun at my new home in Disneyworld!

Today I spoke to a woman from Disney International in Florida who told me all sorts of things I had to know about my working visa and entering the country. Most important is that I cannot enter by mistake as a tourist and I have to make sure to show the right documents to customs. If something wenmt wrong I would have to leave and re-enter. I'm not sure when or even how to start packing, but it is starting to stress me out a bit! That and the big 3 hour exam I have to write next week!!! Oh boy!

Oscar Night!!

Tonight I went to my aunts downtown to have dinner and watch the Oscars. It was alot of fun and the night was very relaxing! Crash ended up winning best picture which was a bit of a surprise! Great movie so Im glad!


Reese is just the best! I wanted her to win so badly!! She did (obviously-she deserved it!)and she gave just about the best speech ever! I loved when she said how June Carter just wanted to matter and that she just wanted to matter! So adorable, she stole the show!!!

Photoshoot

Last night at Lisa's house we took the tripod and SLR camera and tried to take some pictures while everyone else was playing poker. It was kinda fun to use such a nice high-tech camera, I felt like a real photographer! After Ola and I raided Lisa's closet and changed outfits a hundred times it was time to pose. Boys would never have fun doing this!

Leaving on a jet plane....

Love the new Hed Kandi cover! This will be me soon! hehe, but with much more luggage! Oh my gosh I still have soooo much to do its not even funny. I have been studying alot for my Real Estate exam I am writing before I leave, But I get side tracked so easily!!
But the good news is... Ola and I finally planned my going away party (I want to see all my friends before I leave!)

Bachelor Finale Tonight!

Well its that time again, I am just about ready to settle down in front of the television with popcorn for the exciting 2 hour finale of the Bachelor. I think he will choose Moana (although Sarah may be the better choice). He is very into her for whatever reason, and Sarah and him seem to have more of a friendship!Moana receiving a rose last week...

My Disney Blog

So while I am in Florida (next month) I will be putting pictures on a blog I made for down there, mostly because I want to keep them separate, although I will still use this one. The address it www.disneycandi.blogspot.com - I have already posted lots of info for those who dont know what Im talking about!

On my Starbucks cup

Tonight I hit up Starbucks to try their new Chocolate Mocha Macciato and this was what I read on the back of the cup...

Britney on Will and Grace

Here is Britney filming her first taste on primetime while staring on the hit TV show Will and Grace. It airs April 13th. Hopefully she makes up for the acting she did in Crossroads!

Indian food with Chloe

 Chloe is in town this week from Calgary so Ola and I decided to take her to an Indian place for dinner. It was yummy! We had butter chicken and naan bread. I miss Chloe, it was great to see her! 

New Templates!

Yesterday I went over to Lisa's and we spent hours on our lap tops. It was so much fun because we changed our blog templates and explored all sorts of ways to personalize them. I also created a blog for when I am down in Florida. Quentin installed photoshop for me!! yay! Lisa also made a fabulous curry soup and stirfry and we went in the hot tub! Check out Lisa's Blog

Britney in People

"I love LA, but I know what I am. I'm a country girl at heart. I long to be at home. I like that simplicity for my child. I really, really do."

WDW is approaching

Today I decided to take a look at the Chat Forums that are set up for the Walt Disney World International participants. It was so informative and alot of fun to read what everyone is saying. I also came across a couple people from Canada who are going around the same time. So pretty much my day has gone by and I have done nothing productive besides surf the web.

However, Last night I booked my flight, I will be flying out on March 24th (4 days early) with my mom so we can have some time to relax, shop, explore and get me set up before my adventure starts. I think we will also spend a day in "Islands of Adventure" in Universal Studios. We are renting a car so I also hope to hit up some Florida beaches. Woo Hoo!!! the hotel has a waterslide. Sooo excited!!

 
Ola, Chelsea and I last night at the Foggy Dew 

Happy Hearts Day

I Hope that everyone had a Wonderful Valentines day! Chris took me out for dinner to Shabusen where we cooked our own food at the table - Japanese style! It was alot of fun and my first time there.

Today was exciting for me because not only did I get a card from Kelsey in Portland but I got my working Visa for down in Florida. Disney also sent me a big package full of goodies. There was tons of paperwork of course, but also some Mickey stickers and Disneyworld Luggage tags! Just over a month til I leave - Scary thought!!
