Hearts of the Month: March 2012

GAME - Where's My Water?
I became addicted to this iPhone game early in the month, so much so that when I closed my eyes I could still see it dripping around in my head.

APP - Zombies, Run!
I think this is my favourite heart of the month. Another iPhone app, this one part zombie game part workout app. This app turns any walk or run into an epic adventure by telling a story with voice actors where you're picking up items for your team of survivors and running from the undead. I decided to give this app a try, deciding just to go for a stroll on the treadmill and see how it works. By the time I was done I was doing my fastest pace ever on the machine, out of breath and super sweaty. Somehow this app made exercising fun.

GAME - Draw Something
Another addicting iPhone game, sort of like one on one pictionary.

BOOKS - The Hunger Games Trilogy
I completely devoured these books. Usually I take my time reading, going through a novel in a month however I got through book one, The Hunger Games, in 3 days. I then dove into Catching Fire and finished 5 days later and tore through the final book, Mockingjay, in less than 24 hours.
Bonus points for this being the first time I've ever read the novel before seeing the movie.

ARTIST - The Tiny Hobo
I mean do I need to explain.... SHE MADE ME A SUPERHERO

Hearts of the Month: February 2012

PERSON - Kevin Smith
Smodcasts, (most of) his movies, live "Evening With" shows, playing street hockey... I could watch him do pretty much anything (and have done all of the above). I loved that at the beginning of February he broadcast his show "Kevin Smith: Live from Behind" from Toronto live to Cineplex theatres all over the country. He is just all kinds of fantastic and I am super excited to be seeing him live for the 3 (or is it 4th?) time this summer!


COMPANY - ThinkGeek
They have the most incredible customer service team I have ever come across. I had some shipping issues early in the month and they cleared it up quickly and beyond generously. I have never had a bad experience with them.


QUOTE - Won-Ton Jim
My sister was attempting to sing "The Saga Begins" by Weird Al and when it came time for her to say "Qui-Gon Jinn" she said "Won-Ton Jim". I am still laughing about it and this was weeks ago.


THING - Costume Parties
I have 2 costume parties a year, one about every six months. In the winter, for the Oscars and in the summer for my birthday. Call me a loser if you like but I just can't help but love a good theme party!

Hearts of the Month: January 2012

The first of each month (in this case, being backdated and hoping no one notices) I have decided to share with you a few of my favourite things that I have come across in the month previous. It could be ANYTHING, the only criteria is that I had to have loved it.

These are my hearts for January:

TV- Rhod Gilbert's Work Experience
