October In a Gist

This post has been long overdue and I extremely apologize to my blog and you, if you happen to pop by every so often, for the lack of updates. I feel remorse because I promised a more "maintained blog" but as usual, midterm papers and exams chained me so I don't get to blog. Just kidding, it seems like school is such a drag, honestly it isn't! I love learning, I just don't like how pressured I am (I'm sure you feel the same way) to finish back to back papers, exams, and do exceptionally well on it.

Anyhow...

As the people really close to me probably know, October is my favorite month! Not just because it's my birth month (Okay fine, maybe I'm a little bias), but also it's the middle of Fall season. It's when Canada's Thanksgiving is, meaning all those good pumpkin pies and yummy harvest foods (corn!) are everywhere (and, pumpkin spiced lattes and graham lattes!). Also, Halloween is my favorite "holiday/event" next to Christmas because you guessed it... I like horror, carved pumpkins, costume dress ups (or at least seeing other people's dress up game), and candies! This month as well is the prime weather- not freezing cold but isn't warm either.

 I went to Vancouver Fashion Week early this month too! My first ever fashion week.

 And lastly....

 For Halloween, my roommates and I carved Adventure Time pumpkins (I did BMO)! We absolutely love the show that our daily routine consists of watching it during dinner time (Everyone has to be present. No excuses. Papers have to wait).

Cheers! Laarni, xoxo
