my fall 2019 bucket list

I love fall. Even though here in Vancouver that generally means a lot of rain, I love to watch the leaves change colour, the hint of chill in the air, and the abundance of pumpkins. (If I had my way I could probably just live in a pumpkin patch) and I want to do my …

changing my favourite colour

Since I was probably 10 or 12 I have had the same favourite colour whenever someone asks, purple. When I was 15 this colour choice was translated into my bedroom, painting over the previous blue walls for various shades of purple (with black furniture and accents).

I didn’t say yes to marrying you knowing what we were doing with our life

listening to other people: my current favourite podcasts (part 3)

It has been over a year now since I dove head first into the world of podcasts and I haven't looked back since. There is something so comforting to me to listen to other people talking, whether it is about something serious or something the complete opposite and although I love reading, it is great …

my spring bucket list

Well it truly feels like spring is in the air. I have tulips on my kitchen table, plants (hopefully growing) in my small garden, and it is still light out when I both leave and come home from work. I want to take full advantage of the spring season and enjoy the nicer weather, and …

25 things that I accomplished in my 25th year

Today I have become a quarter of a century old and honestly, that is crazy. I feel like everyone has a image in their mind of what their life will look like when they are 25 and I don't think it was similar to what it really is. For once I always thought I would …

what does a records coordinator do?

So many people ask what it is that I do all day and what exactly a records coordinator does and to be honest it is sometimes hard to define it quickly. In an essence I help organize all of the information that is created at Metro Vancouver; emails, reports, data, everything. I also help to …
