So I headed home, the cupcakes in my purse and I even got home on the same transfer, so I only have to use one bus ticket round trip, and for Whyte ave and back, that's pretty admirable! I went home, whipped open my cupcakes and devoured them as quickly as humanly possible. Perhaps a bit slower than that because I did have the paticence to take a photograph. Yes, they are a bit squished from the bus ride home, however no-one can deny the brillance that is obvious through this photograph.
Nom nom nom!
The cupcake place promised to call me the next day. And they didn't, and then didn't call me today either, and they're closed tomorrow. So I guess they DO give free cupcakes to just anyone...
Afterwards I decided to accompany my father to Costco to pick up the things for our family gathering this April.
I also decided why not get my passport photos taken at the same time to prepare for my next adventure and to save a trip to costco.
The only problem is that I recently got my bangs cut, and therefore they are exactly the perfect epic length I like them; apparently two milli-inches too long for a passport picture. The romanian sounding photographer told me to go to the washroom to wet my bangs and I knew right here right now, this was gonna get ugly. Literally.
(*Flashback to first round of passport photos. What passport photos? Exactly, they were thrown away due to their surprisingly disturbing nature.)
So I return and its a new photographer she seems satisfied with my bangs, but tells me to take out my amazing flowery vintage earrings! "They need to see your ears," she informs me. Oh really? Is that so, I hear about that all the time when you're lining up for boarding, "I'm sorry sir, but these ears do not match your passport photo." So I take them out sadly and just then she changes her mind and she tells me my bangs are still too rediculous and in my face to take a photo of so I fiddle with them somemore to the point where it's clear my photo could not be taken that day because of them, and then she takes a minature clip off her head and offers it to me, "Here, I don't have bugs." I take it and jam it into my hair, overly ready to just get this thing over with and FLASH, like the hope of an attractive photograph, the moment was gone.
I return to my father complaining and he reassured me that everyones passport photos are unattractive, but I just wanted this round of photos to be somewhat attractive so that I wouldn't have to throw them away like the last ones!
So we continued on our shopping list and could not find crackers for the life of us, but eventually we did, as well as about $50 dollars of the best cheese this world has to offer and ventured our way back to the photo lab so that I could see the hideous results.
So alright, it's not the worst photo ever, but if you said that the wet, clipped to the side of my head bangs, the random minature bangs that didn't make it into the clip that loitered on the left side of my head, the glare on my face and the void on my ears where gorgeous earrings should have been was attractive, I'd probably have to slap you for being delusional. I'm going to use them, just because I don't have the heart to be let down a third time when my picture somehow turns out worse than the one before it.
However, shopping at Costco and able to lift my spirits was the discovery of the coolest Sorbet ever!!
I found a box that was 12 dollars for 10 sorbets and it's advertising was all, "Sorbet that comes in the actual fruit shell!" and I'm all like, "No way, that's probably such a lie, but I do like cheap sorbets.." So I bought and it and decided to do a test of false advertising.
This is what the box suggested was inside...
And this is what was actually really and truly inside!
That's right folks, they were telling the truth the whole time. There truly is Pina Colada sorbet in a half of a coconut, and pineapple sorbet in half of a pineapple!
They are actually really good, I recommend it!
As well as this, I recieved all my Katima photos!
I order them from http://kwikpix.ca/ and it's actually really convienent because you upload them from your computer and get them sent straight to your house, minimal effort required. Last time it took a million years to get them and this time I got my 500+ photo order in about 3 days!
Whoot whoot! So that only took 4 hours of my life putting them into albums last night but totally worth it.
AAAAAND, I finally got my numbers for the Katimavik Yield Team so I was able to call future participants and tell them about my experience on the phone. It was seriously so enjoyable I love doing it.
And then, at about 7, I got ready for...
YSA SPEED DATING...
