Building An Archive For 10+ Years

I’ve been on a mission to build a powerful archive of my own pictures. I don’t always know what I’m taking or saving them for, but I’ve always had a feeling they would be helpful someday. That I would have the right picture for the right moment.

When the COVID-19 pandemic happened and we were all told to stay home, I didn’t want to be insensitive to my audience. It didn’t seem like the right time to do photo shoots for Instagram. So, I started posting throwbacks. Not baby photos, but throwbacks within the last 5-10 years from my camera. It seemed like the perfect time to take advantage of my archive.

The picture of Jessica Mulroney and I that I posted on the day of her series premiere? Taken 2 years ago. I posted 3 more latergrams before I posted a new frozen snack I discovered. I heated up SuperPretzels in the toaster oven and put them under good lighting on a red paper plate. Ta da, new post!

3 Writing Tips From Sarah Dessen

Meeting Sarah Dessen was very exciting because I loved the movie How To Deal and she was one of my favourite childhood authors. Due to the timing of her book signing, I didn’t publish a blog post about it immediately for personal reasons. It was very special though and not because we have the same name. “You spell it the right way, but let’s not offend the Sarahs with the other spelling,” she said.

Sarah told the crowd a funny story about being on live TV while wearing an Apple Watch and it rang when her husband called! She had to take it off and throw it offscreen to make the sound go away. Now she doesn’t wear it anymore.

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.

A Fangirl At A. Human

Earlier this month, I went on a birthday trip to New York with my mom. This marked my 5^th trip there. A few days before I left, Kim Kardashian West posted on Twitter and Instagram about a special necklace that “moves to the beat of [her] heartbeat”.
