THANK YOU!


If I could run barefoot down the road with a bouquet of balloons in my hand right now, I totally would!

First off, I want to thank each and every one of you who visits my blog. Whether it's for a minute (or even a second), every day or once a week, you all have contributed to this mini-milestone for my little ol' blog!

Yesterday afternoon I saw that my blog views were inching 11,000. Since I had missed seeing the count roll over to 10,000, I wanted to make an effort to at least see it hit the next mark! I rallied on Twitter, Tumblr & posted on the Facebook page of this goal, and THANK YOU to all of you who helped me ACCOMPLISH IT!

While I do blog for myself and to have a creative outlet on the side, I also do it because I want to give you guys something fun and interesting to read. If it means making fun of myself or spending a couple hours simply typing up a post, whatever, I'll do it! Honestly, blogging has become a fun hobby of mine. I love to share the things I learn, and I love that you come back to read about it!

Again, I want to THANK YOU SO MUCH for supporting HLDFashion! Who knows what the future will bring for this hobby of mine :)

Happiness


 Well, I am finally settled in my apartment. School is half way through, midterms are almost finished (retail buying on Monday & then they are all done), internship has begun, and soon a seasonal job opportunity at Holt Renfrew will begin! It has been a whirlwind of excitement for me lately, starting with my internship. I came across the opportunity from teachers at school, and soon I found myself in one of the meeting rooms on the 4th floor of Holt Renfrew's flagship store in Vancouver at the orientation. Next, I met for one on one interviews with women's wear and marketing, and the next day I got the call to become part of the marketing and events team! It has been amazing, to say the least, and the fact that I am able to network and meet others through this is going to be an incredible journey. Isn't it crazy what life throws at you sometimes?

I decided to post some pictures of what has been happening lately. From buying my first pair of Hunter boots and the view from Thursday yoga classes at school, to going back to the island & celebrating a friends birthday (and all the fun stuff in between). Last week Brandon came over to visit and move furniture over, so we went to IHOP - fun fact: it stands for International House of Pancakes. Were we late the to the party & the last to know of this?! I was amazed! I enjoyed some delicious whole wheat with walnut pancakes topped with blueberries and whipped cream. I was barely in three bites before I was full! Brandon said, "I will do anything for you if you finish those!" However, I just couldn't do it. I ate the top pancake with all the good stuff on it, then slowly picked the walnuts out of the rest. I'm sure the server appreciated the mess after I was finished - you're welcome!

I am thinking about doing a video post soon, so stay tuned for that! Hope life is beautiful for you all!

What is making you happy today?
