film...

So I was so excited to take some awesome pictures this weekend. I bought three roles for my camera. I was all set. I took some really good pictures that summed up my weekend. Unfortunately this happened:


I took pictures of Ryan and James jumping off the waterfall, Stephanie and Ryan 4-wheeling, Ryan and Lee getting in each others faces, and what I hoped to be pretty pictures of people when the sun was setting. Shitty things happen though.

This weekend I traveled with a ton of friends to Tatamogouche for a lovely night at Ryan's cottage. We 4-wheeled ( which was my first time being on such a beast of a machine thing) and was awesome! Went boating, we made yummy chicken spaghetti, gazed at the stars (found the big dipper and the milky way). But the most memorable moment was that at The Falls.

the falls
Ryan has been jumping off this waterfall since he was 11 I think. He was first to jump, followed shortly (with a lot of encouragement) James and Andy. I was up there trying to get over be totally scared to jump, but I really wanted to. However after watching another women slip and fall of the rock, and hitting her body on the way down, I didn't jump.
The moment she fell and the 5 min following were the most scariest moments ever. We are thought she was seriously injured, if not dead. She was knocked out and for a few minutes her body looked lifeless in the water. As Samantha and I ran back down to the bottom, some guys went out to get her from the water.
She was ok in the end!

This weekend proved itself to be quite the time. I wouldn't hesitate to do it all over again, minus the almost dead woman.

new dress

Wow it has been a few months since my last post.
I guess I haven't really had anything to talk about. I do now though.
Last week i bought this dress. I had been eyeing it for months, but it had been way too expensive. It came down almost $100 dollars and I had to get it.

I love the little black bow and the pleats. It looks a lot better on a person then it does on the hanger. The cool thing about it is that I can easily dress it down (with leggings and a cardigan) or dress it up (with heals and my pearl earrings).
I still need a place to wear it, lately I have't done anything that wearing this dress would be suitable.
