His memorial was so touching, kind of reminded me of my mothers funeral. People are so fascinated by Michael Jackson's life, and it's to sad that people didn't appreciate his music and his legacy until he died. He was completely ripped apart for being weird, and you kind of forget how much he influenced the people who are in the arts, and music lovers all over the world.
Being involved in dance, one of my teachers in particular, Aimee, loved him. Being in her class meant listening to Michael or Janet, it was so much fun. His dance moves always made their way into our routines. I can see many tributes to him this season.
I know my mum is up there having some chats with Michael.
RIP

Gay pride, water guns, Rick Mercer, American Apparel showing their support. Last Sunday was actually an amazing run in at the Gay Pride Parade on Young street. So colourful, and everyone is so happy, it was ridiculously refreshing. I recommended anyone going next year, it was such a good time. You get plenty of free condoms, ha!
Now that the summer is here, I keep thinking about how so much has changed since last summer. New people, new experiences, and thinking about how the new school year will be. Grade 12, senior year. Time to experience it to the fullest, there isn't any time for drama, just buckling down to get into a good university, make my dad proud, and just have fun.
I'm a little excited, but also trying to look at the summer as a blessing that it's a break before the mayhem begins in September.
I need a hat.

Leaving dance was probably the hardest decisions I had to make this year. It took me since December to finally decide whether I would or not, and for various reasons I think its for the best. Finally I'll be able to hangout with my friends on weekends and not worry about waking up to dance classes the following morning, and hopefully will let me focus on school ALOT more next year. It's so hard leaving something that had become my life over the past few years, and leaving my friends that I've become so close too. It's incredibly hard.
On a lighter note, I went to my friends brothers art show on the weekend. It was somewhat incredible, I suggest you check out Alex Sheriffs work, its rather spectacular.
Oh ps, can anyone bring me to the opening of Topshop in NYC?
