Short and Sweet

No! This place was actually open!

It was my boyfriend's 22nd birthday, so I had some plans arranged to go downtown. I don't know about you, but once it's past the 21st birthday, all the numbers feel no different to me. I'm just a little anxious for when my 22nd birthday comes in September because I'm afraid of becoming older and feeling like I haven't accomplished much in my life yet. Though, I know people older than me always say I'm still so young and have a long journey ahead of me. Guess the realization of your own progress kicks in only when you start comparing yourself to others. 

We were at the Distillery District in Toronto because I had a segway tour planned. The forecast did say it was going to thunder that day, though I was hoping we wouldn't catch it at the same time because it was a pretty hot, normal looking day. To our disappointment, it ended up raining 20 minutes into our tour. Of course, the tour had to be cancelled, though it was a fun experience riding segways while it lasted! Something I will definitely have to plan again! 

The Distillery District is a small, historic and entertainment area. It features buildings dating back to the 1860's! I would've found out more had our tour not been cancelled, so that's all I can really say.
This was the perfect location for photos with this outfit. I love this simple pink tee I purchased on sale at Gap for $10. These pinstripe shorts were a great pattern to add interest, and it's always nice to have a cute hat while blocking the sun's rays.

  11. Nothing as advanced as some pro-bloggers! I use the Canon t5i with an 85mm f/1.8 lens. This lens makes a HUGE difference with my basic dslr, though working with a fixed lens can be difficult sometimes when it comes to distance.

  12. Thanks Diana! Lol it's definitely a part of the process of experiencing new things and coming to acceptance of age, which I must see as a positive outlook!
