UnderGraduating The Hub

Exam time means no sleep which means coffee which for me usually means a visit or two to Starbucks. I was walking through City Park towards Division and Brad caught up to me and asked me to help him light his cigar (I know right?). I don’t think Brad has ever ordered something from Starbucks but my friend Melissa is a barista there (here’s her super cute tumblr: http://worththetime.tumblr.com/) and suggested he try a vanilla latte. 

Melissa: do you like chocolate?

Brad: I am one of the few people on the planet who hate chocolate.

Melissa: what about caramel or vanilla? 

Brad: I like vanilla

Me: Brad likes white things 

Brad: are you saying I’m racist?

Me: you just like white things 

Brad: so I just ask for a vanilla bullshit? 

Me: what? 

Brad: that’s all it is…coffee and milk no matter how you say it. 

Ryan: ask for a medium as well (HA). 

So Brad walked up to the counter and I’m not quite sure what he said to the barista but they had a short conversation.

Barista: and what’s your name? 

Brad: Bradley Dobson. 

He must have enjoyed the drink because he got another one, but not before embarrassing me super hardcore. 

Brad: am I embarrassing you? 

Me: look at yourself. 

Brad: I’m dressed for success!

Me: you’re dressed for a funeral home. 

And then a woman talked to me about how she got sprayed by a tiger at a mall in Edmonton (I don’t know if she meant sprayed by spit or some other bodily fluid) because she gives off lots of pheromones and the tiger wanted to mark her, and then went on to talk about lobster on the East Coast and how her kids would kill her for telling me this story. 

The moral? Never take Brad anywhere.

So, I went last night. And can I just say, whoever doesn’t make it to tonight or tomorrow night’s show is missing out. I was completely blown away.

I’ve never been involved with Vogue before and every year that it comes around I constantly forget that the purpose of Vogue is to raise money for a worthy charity. This year, the first thing the audience saw was a really touching video about the Learning Disabilities Association of Kingston (LDAK). Actually though, I almost cried. It was just so sweet! It was the perfect way to segue into a night of utter glam.

Both the modeling and the dancing was phenomenal. God I can’t wait for you guys to see it! Want a taste? Lots of contemporary and quirky choreography, a male dance scene with a little Bieber, and an eeeepic break dancing scene. Design-wise, I was super impressed. Once again, there was a little bit of everything. One of my favourite designs this year is all kitschy and sailor themed with bright colours popping. Absolutely gorgeous in a casual way. The other end of the spectrum are these STUNNING flowing dresses, immaculate corsets, and beautiful refined looking stitching. Being in the presence of such fine work makes you (or at least me) think back to the very basic elements of style and design. I’m literally itching for a sewing machine and a personal helper to show me how to use it. Yea…I have no clue how to begin.

Bottom-line, go see it! If you’re someone who is interested in this blog, than you’re going to be more than happy giving 20 dollars to charity in return for a few hours of sheer fashionable bliss.

Queen’s Players is the BOMB.

Here is what goes down:

You go to time to laugh, you drink steam whistles all night with a hilarious cast of Queen’s undergrads playing various pop-culture icons. You can guy the cast pints and when you notice them make mistakes its your turn to get loud and yell SEAMLESS!!! In between scenes the actors channel their inner rock-stars performing awesome musical numbers with some  hilarious background choreography!

If you don’t know this new and upcoming rapper from the t-dot o., you need to get off your electro diet and add a little hip hop! So take a little trip to www.blakecarringtonsworld.com and take a listen.

 While Elysium isn’t my favorite bar i’m pretty excited to see a performer there. FEBRUARY 11, for 10-15 bucks. The price is pretty good for Elysium (…especially knowing connie likes to take an 50-80% cut at the door haha). African Caribbean Students’ Association (ACSA) is also doing a music workshop during the day so we can work with Blake during the day then see him perform at night.

My liver can’t take anymore blackout nights at the bar but… I need to drink away the smell at stages, take shots to forget the percentage of under-agers at ale (EXHIBIT: A), and blackout to make-believe the spot is a real bar. I go to these bars because my friends want to go dance (for the ladies) and pick-up (for the gentlemen). Mind you, I do enjoy both,  but I really miss hitting up the brass, qp and grad club. I just want to go to the bar with no other reason then to enjoy my beer and my friends and let the debauchery occur naturally.
