I cannot believe this happened in my country. →
A first hand account of a bystander that was arrested and held without charge for over 40 hours in Toronto during the G20 protests. It make me cry.

Obstacles
I am so frustrated with my body right now. My ankle injury hasn’t been that bad recently, but last night the knee on my other leg started hurting and now whenever i straighten it, I get sharp, horrible pain. This means I had to cancel my training session this afternoon and working out in almost any capacity is off limits.
I’ve been dealing with this issue for a number of years now. I start ...
honestlybelieved asked: Well, I see you just posted a picture of your make-up goodie bag. What is your make-up routine? Anything you can't live without? Any recommendations on eyeliner that will stay put on my bottom lash line all day? That was a few questions...whoops! :)

We went for a...
So ready
To get back into my healthy mode! Of course I say this while sitting in my parents kitchen drinking a beer and munching on pretzels, but my intent is still genuine.

Back to Reality
Leaving South Africa tomorrow, it’s been a long but amazing five weeks. We got to go on Safari, see a World Cup exhibition game and got to experience the history and culture of the country first hand. I’m excited to go home and see Ryan, get back into my exercise routine (although I sprained my damn ankle on a hike through the game reserve) and start enjoying summer.
I hope everyone...
