This and that...

I'm tired... in a good way though, I guess. The last few days have been busy. Like I told everyone, I signed up to the gym on Monday... and I had my first session on Tuesday. Yay - not. I worked out for 40 minutes and it was painful - not just because I'm out of shape (which is really sad), but also because it's soooo boring! I had music with me (thanks heaven) and was watching tennis at the same time, but still... I had too much time to think with my brain and all I could do is wish that time would go faster. I'm definitively bringing a book today when I go... and oh, I spent most of my time biking... so but bottom hurts. Seriously, those bike seats are really uncomfortable!

One thing that annoys me is coming out of the parking lot, which is incline, I heard a huge scratching sound :( I scratched the whole bottom on the left side of the front of my car :( Yeah, definitively not happy :( I have to say though, Honda carrosserie sucks. It's soo easy to scratch the car... so it's been bugging me :(

I also got my annual letter from the I-Rewards membership - that's the membership of the bookstore Chapters/Indigo/Coles that allows me to save 10% of all the books I buy in-store and 5% online. It's time that I renew the membership and on the letter, it tells you how much you've saved for the year...

340.71$


Yay!! I saved 10$ more than last year... which when you think about it is a bit frightening. Especially since the books price has gone down significantly ever since the Canadian dollar is doing so well. So I must have bought even more books ^_^; !

Oh and fellow Canadian book lovers, Chapters/Indigo/Coles are having double discount days on this week-end (May 31 & June 1st)! I guess it means that you save 20% instead of 10% if you're a member. By the way, English mangas are already on-sale at 20% off (+10% if you're a member... don't know if it's going to be 20% though this week-end... hmmm)... and finally, starting from June 13 for two weeks, it's the buy 3 books and get the 4th free sale!

Yesterday, I went out with friends. Two of them are graduating!! That's very good news :) I wore a skirt and a very nice top. Very feminine. Actually, my friend, KK, has been complaining, LOL :) See, I ask her to go shop with me and choose more feminine/grown-up clothes for me... and she has a good taste... but then, I never wear what she choose. For me, skirts and nice tops are for nice occasions, not simply going to work or going out. Plus, the temperature has been a bit chilly and it's been windy... so KK has been complaining that I never wear the clothes that I bought with her. So yesterday, I wore the skirt, the nice top and the sandals. It was quite funny, because she actually chose everything I was wearing yesterday - the top, the skirt, the sandals and she's the one who bought me the purse for my b-day, LOL :) I'll post a pic up when they'll send me the pictures... Though you guys have seen pictures of me at Holly's wedding, so it's not so special now :P

Ah... I think I forgot my cellphone at the restaurant yesterday. Ugh. I can't find it :( Or perhaps, it's in KK's jacket... I hope I haven't lost it yet, but it's too early at the moment to call either of them (KK or the restaurant)... but yeah, that's one problem I don't need at the moment :(

Oh by the way, anyone interested to do some buddy reviews with me? Lately, I've read The Lost Duke of Wyndham by Julia Quinn, The Waitress by Melissa Nathan, Finding Mary Blaine by Jodi Thomas and the Bridgerton series by Julia Quinn.
