Connecting With Chelsea Handler

A few years ago, I blogged about how LinkedIn recruited celebrities to join. I said that I was in favour of it and I hope they commit to it like other social media channels. Most of them abandoned it, but it doesn’t matter because one of Chelsea Handler’s articles really stood out to me.

In March 2016, Chelsea Handler wrote an article on LinkedIn about the power of showing up. A few months later, I was thinking about the article while standing in Starbucks near St. Andrew station and I found the link, then tweeted about it. I re-read the article this week right before I had a chance to tell her how much I loved it in person. It was worth reading again.

A Tribute To Tegan And Sara

When I was in high school, I wanted to be like Peyton Sawyer on One Tree Hill. Peyton loved listening to music and working with artists. Peyton was a fan of Tegan and Sara and so was I. 10 years later, my dreams came true. I met Tegan and Sara in person! In the last month, I went to their book signing, read their memoir and attended their concert.

What To Expect From The Disney On Broadway Tour

Whenever I’m in New York, I always go to the Disney Store in Times Square, so it’s unsurprising that I booked tickets to the Disney on Broadway tour. The tour has been on my radar for a few years and the timing finally worked out on my last trip.

We stayed in the Theater District, so the meeting place for the tour was steps away from our hotel. It was nice to go on the tour with my mom because we saw The Lion King musical together.

The tour is split in 2 parts: walking around Times Square and then visiting Disney’s New Amsterdam Theatre. I wish we spent more time at the theatre and less time on the street. We heard general information about how Times Square has evolved, whereas I was more interested in Disney. I enjoyed hearing about how Walt Disney approached Julie Andrews to star in Mary Poppins after seeing her in Camelot at the Majestic Theatre, but I could find most facts online.

Raise Your Glass To Pink

Now I’ve officially seen every performer on my must-see list! Watching Pink on award shows convinced me she would be amazing and her Beautiful Trauma World Tour was even better than I imagined.

Between the costumes, acrobatics, dancing and special effects, it was a magical show and she performed for 2 hours! Not only did Pink wear red pants, but she also performed right in front of me and flew over my head, so we almost made eye contact.

Book Review: Love At First Like

While following Hannah Orenstein on social media, I’ve watched her become a published author, in a totally non-creepy way. Once I received an advance copy of her second novel, Love At First Like, I finally understood her success. It’s because her writing is incredible. Unfortunately, it took me a long time to truly get it because I’ve spent too much time on Instagram and not enough time reading books.

Now Hannah has a new novel about how Instagram has changed our society, so it’s perfect for me! Love At First Like gives new meaning to “doing it for the ‘gram”.
