Beach Day

As I sit in here in nothing but my Calvin underwear, watching Troy, after a workout, I thought this would be a good time to blog about last night and today. Last night I was hoping to go out for drinks, but that fell through so I just stayed in and did some painting by candle light and enjoyed the cool breeze; although I was REALLY hoping for the thunderstorm that was promised by the weather network gods. At midnight I had planned on starting a 24 hour vow of silence to work/test my self-discipline, but when I woke I decided to get Quiznos for lunch and quickly realized I couldn't order without talking and so that vow lasted almost 12 hours. Looks like I'll have to attempt this another day! Hahaha. After getting lunch, I headed to Westboro to spend the afternoon at the beach. On my way, I realized I forgot my sunscreen; and with UVs "very high" I wasn't sure how well this would pan out. As the bus approached Westboro, it turned down a detour and wasn't going the usual way. I had no clue where the bus was going. When I got off the bus I didn't know where I was but thought I'd walk and try and find the beach. Usually the bus drops me off just steps from the beach and this time I walked for awhile and came to a random field clearing with trees at the end; not the usual path, but I thought I'd try it. Then I followed a nature trail for a bit and finally found the beach. I quickly discovered why the bus had to go an alternative route. The parkway was closed down so people could bike; and there were hundreds of bikers. Alas, finally I made it to the beach, chilled there (with 10 minute rotations) and read. The beginning started off well with lots of sun, but quickly clouds took over. I finally left after a few hours, but of course I still managed to get sunburnt despite rotating frequently and the sky being blocked with thick clouds. Looks like I better remember my sunscreen when Emilie and I head to the beach tomorrow to study.
This doesn't seem like the usual way to the beach

Bus Adventure

To spice things up a bit today, Emilie and I decided to go on a bus adventure! It was soo much fun! We grabbed Tim Hortons, then got on a bus to Hurdman bus station. When we got to Hurdman, we got on a random bus that we've never taken and we didn't know where it went to. That was really fun! We went till it brought us back to Hurdman, way quicker than we thought, so we got on another random bus. This one dropped us off in the middle of nowhere. After walking a little we found a Boston Pizza in the middle of nowhere haha. We grabbed some pizza and martinis for more adventure and fun, then made our way back home. Lots of fun! I highly suggest everyone spruce up their life with some bus adventures!
