Marathon Madness

Hiiiiiii! :)
On Thursday, one of my best friends,Emily, and I packed our bags and ventured into Toronto where our other best friend, Katie, lives. We planned this visit a little while ago, and we were determined to complete our long awaited  Harry Potter Marathon. We all have a deep love for Harry Potter as it was basically our childhood and we decided long ago that this was something that needed to be done!!

We have attempted this before, although the last movie wasn't out at that time, plus we kept falling asleep during the movies. This time we gave ourselves more time, and actually had decent sleeps so we were able to stay awake.
 We stayed at Katie's condo for two nights and began watching the movies as soon as we got there midday Thursday. We did have numerous breaks throughout this time to go in search of food(healthy stuff and crap) and to take the dog out. We were able to get through all the movies and still get 8 hour sleeps (This was partially due to the fact that they were both sick and wanted a good nights sleep to get healthy again!).
These two days were so much fun and I love these two girls to death. They are my oldest friends and it was lovely being able to spend time with them before we all go back to school. This was probably the last time the three of us will be able to see each other before Christmas break, which saddens me. I'm just glad we were able to hang out and finally have our marathon before our lives get busy again. Before we left we had to take some pictures naturally:P We were determined on taking a nice photo of the three of us since all that seem to exist are goofy ones....this wasn't very successful.
Aww Em and Katie<3
So pretty!





At last... a picture without goofy faces... it took a while:P

This visit was truly MAGICAL ;)

I hope you all have a wonderful day,
Byeeee<3

Sushi!

Hiiii! :)

I feel like all I have done today is sleep and eat. One of my best friends stayed over last night and we stayed up pretty late (well early I guess) watching movies and going on Youtube and such . We drifted off to sleep when the sky began to get lighter, so we slept in quite late (until lunch time). 

Whenever we are together we always say how we want to go get sushi somewhere because we both like it. To be honest I just like any type of food! Today we decided was the perfect day to get some. We had nothing to do in the afternoon, plus it was raining and cold, so  it wasnts really a day we wanted to spend outside. We got ready and headed out to get our long awaited sushi! There is a place near us called The Villa. It is this little Japanese restaurant and I had never actually been inside it before.

My friend and I both got the same thing and we got dumplings as an appetizer as well. For drinks we got Japanese green tea which was lovely and with the meals we also got a little bowl of salad and some soup. The soup had tofu and seaweed and other stuff in it but it was soooo tasty and it just warmed me right up! It was actually a lot better than I expected. The salad was delicious as well. It had this orange dressing on it that I had never had before and it was very good. Actually all the food was absolutely delicious!There was shrimp and crab and rolls with avocado and more. It was wonderful.
Now the soup and salad may not appear to be that tasty but I assure you they were! I promise :)
There was actually a substantial amount of food, and we ate it all!
I thought the tea pot was just so pretty!
Now there was one problem.... the only utensil that we were given were chopsticks. Now I don't use these very often (hardly ever) so I struggled quite a lot. My friend, who actually knew how to use chopsticks, thought it was hilarious. It was kind of humorous I must admit, although I did make a mess of the table and myself. I splashed soy sauce everywhere, my sushi rolls broke into pieces, rice fell every which way! Luckily we went in the middle of the afternoon so we were basically the only people at the restaurant at this time so no one else saw my chopsticks fiasco!

All in all it was such a fantastic afternoon, despite the dreary weather. The food was delightful, and it was nice just chatting and having fun with my friend. It was a lovely day and it was actually relaxing too. Also my friend got a phone call for a job interview which is extremely exciting so my fingers crossed for her! :)
I hope you all had enjoyable days as well!
