weekend highlights

This is my second weekend highlights post within two weeks, and both weekends were jam packed with amazing and cool things enjoyed with so many people I love, and I could not be more grateful. I may have said this before, but I always feel like every summer I have a list of things I want to do but I always feel like I have the entire summer to do them so I always end up putting them off. Around the last week or so of August I look at my list of things to do and realize I've barely done any of it and while I still had a pretty good summer, I didn't take advantage of the weather and time off I had. So this summer my boyfriend and I actually made a physical list of things we want to do and places we want to go, and are trying our hardest to do at least one thing a week in order to do everything on the list before the summer ends. And I have to say it's working out really well and I'm having the most amazing summer so far!

I was fortunate enough to have this entire weekend off, and since it was a long weekend for Victoria Day, that ended up being Friday-Monday with absolutely no work. And since I worked the whole weekend last weekend, you can imagine how excited I was to just sit back and relax.

Because retail is not that busy this time of year, I've had quite a few days off from work, which has given me time to do things I don't normally have time for when I work a full week. This past weekend I finally found time to go to the Politics Of Fashion exhibit at the Design Exchange (which was great timing too, since it was in its last week!), as well as the Ripley's Aquarium.
