Tales From Robe Girl

So, I accidentally became famous. It all started with me deciding to take a shower. Now, I rarely shower at night, but I thought on this one occasion, with all my homework done and an early morning, that I would take a shower at 10 o’clock at night. I stripped down, put on some music (hello, Mowgli’s, it’s good to listen to you again), and reached to the handle to turn on the water. Only for the fire alarm to go off. Thinking, “You must be kidding me,” I reach for my robe, an

11 Reasons I Am the Perfect Girlfriend

I spent my Tuesday consumed in a group message with three of my best friends in which we held a tournament to decide who my ultimate celebrity crush is. I won’t tell you the winner (because I need to spare the hearts of those who didn’t make the cut) but I will tell you that they are very lucky I have deigned them worthy of my affection. Why? Because I am the perfect girlfriend. Why Morgan Hegarty is the Perfect Girlfriend (And Band Members You Should Date Her) 1. She makes a

How to Get a Valentine

Well, it has once again come upon us. Valentine’s Day. And once again, you are single. But that’s okay. As long as you have your cat and that five-pound candy bar you should be good for the next 365 days. Ha! Just kidding!

The 10 (Friendship) Commandments

“It’s the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.” – Marlene Dietrich There’s one thing about me that I would like to get straight: things come out of my mouth that I wish didn’t. An example? I was sitting in French class on Thursday, after discussing my entire blogging career with my teacher, and we suddenly got on the topic of studying abroad. A girl in my class asked if when my teacher had studied in France had she met any men. My teacher said no and, no joke, I sai

How to Fangirl

Fangirl: to obsess over something/someone in a way that it becomes your wallpaper. Enthusiasm: to obsess over something/someone that it becomes a topic you enjoy talking about. I have now described to you the slight difference between fangirling and being enthusiastic. Being a fangirl is obsession to an unhealthy level. Being an enthusiast is obsession in the normal form of fandom. My blog is, from the name, an enthusiasm blog. I like to talk about certain subjects fairly reg

Favorite YouTube Vlogs

Although I rarely have time for it, I love watching YouTube vlogs. And I seem to cross a few that I think are so funny, so genuine, so fantastically wonderful that I think, “I’ve got to share this with the world.” That means that I post them on Facebook, where __ number of friends see it. So I’ve compiled a list of my favorite YouTube videos and put them together for you 🙂 nerimon – Alex and Liam do Walmart ilovemarcandnathan – Dancing Away from Sticky Situations charlieisso

18 to Life

I’m always talking about things that I’m currently obsessed with (I am a full-fledged enthusiast) and today is no different. I want to talk about the (cancelled) Canadian television program, 18 to Life. 18 to Life follows the life of 18-year-old Tom Bellow and Jessie Hill, who are two life-long neighbors who are also newlyweds. After a dare, Tom proposed to Jessie and the two are now together for life. The two now struggle with not only being married and figuring out their fu

Films That I'm Dying to See

For those who have been following my blog for a while now, you know I’m a huge film buff. I’m such a film buff that IMDB is my Internet best friend. Recently I’ve been around the web, catching up on films that are going to be coming out in the next year or two. They aren’t things that are coming out right now or anything, so the anticipation is really getting me. Hopefully (as sad as this is) you will read some of these and get as excited as I am and we can have a nice ol’ ch
