Fun in the Sun

If you’re like me you love summer more than anything, and are overjoyed by the thought of its arrival. If you’re also like me, then you’ll spend most of your summer wasting your time by watching TV or playing on the internet. Before you know it summer is over. I found this this was my problem and it makes the happiness of summer descend. STOP DOING THIS. I’ve decided I’m going to give you a few ideas to keep in mind when you are sitting inside watching a re-run of a show you don’t really like, or looking at the fun other people are having on Facebook.              

1.       Read a damn book. You may think you’re not a reader, but you just haven’t found the right book(s). The Hunger Games—good stuff right there. If you’re a hopeless romantic go with the classic Nicholas Sparks book. I strongly suggest the book The Guardian by him. Phenomenal. Go outside to do your reading. Try going in your backyard, front porch, or at a friend’s house while tanning—anything to get outdoors.

2.       Don’t be a loner. If you’re doing nothing and your friend is doing nothing, well go ahead and do nothing together. That may fuel you to actually do something fun.

3.       Crafts. Hit up Pinterest for some ideas on fun crafts that you can do. I usually look on that website and think “Wow that looks fun and moderately easy to do” but I never actually do it. Be better than me and do it.

4.       Go for a bike ride/rollerblade/walk. Get out and be active. Go find a nice trail or somewhere with some nice scenery and take it all in.

5.       Try new places to eat, preferably with a patio. It’s always fun to discover new little lunch places. You never know what you’ll find…potential goldmines there. If you don’t feel like eating just go for drinks with your friends during the day.

6.       Get up to date on what your city has to offer. For example, in Windsor, our art gallery is free on Wednesdays. We can go there and become more cultured for free, it’s a prefect deal.

Enjoy the beauty weather while it lasts!

How to be the Best Drunk Ever

The weekend is fast approaching so I thought I would give everyone some pointers on how to be the funny happy drunk that everyone loves instead of the shitty crying drunk that everyone wants to punch in the throat. I know both routes pretty well so I thought that I would be the best person for this...

First things first you need to go in the night with a positive attitude. In your head, I want you to be thinking "I'm being funny tonight. I'm going to be drunk and everyone is going to worship my free-spirit and fun-ness." It's okay to get a little cocky at this point. After you have sufficiently reassured yourself of this it is time to spread the word! Last weekend I did this by sending a lil text to a friend I was going out with that said "Can't wait for tonight! Let's be funny drunks!" Everyone needs to be aware that this is the goal of the night and ultimately it will get you pumped up for all the fun things you're going to do once the night begins. I get that I sound a little bit like a faggot right now but just bear with me.

Next, I want you to drink tequila. I've tested this theory numerous times and I can honestly say that tequila never sets you up for a bad night....especially when you're chasing it with pickle juice. Steer clear of your vodkas and other hard liquors. Vodka tastes like ass anyways. If you're not down with tequila, which I know many people aren't, your next best bet would be beer. Beer also never fails. I suggest either bonging or shotgunning it to an upbeat song.

Finally, I want you to act upon every dumbass thought that enters your head while you're out and already sufficiently wasted. A personal example I can give you for this is kicking a guy in the nuts while on your friends back and then shouting "IM A FIESTY MIDGET!" Other ideas include screaming at the top of your lungs for no apparent reason, convincing people to buy you drunks because you have a disease and only have a couple days to live, trying to pay cover with 5 cents Canadian tire money, and stealing random people's belongings from the bar such as jackets, cell phones, purses, or whatever you can get your hands on really...

So there we have it ladies and gents! Call me biased but I would say these tips are pretty much foolproof.... ;) Added bonus if you implement them for St. Patty's day as well......

CHEERS :)

Bucket List For The Girls

Hello march! Well, our group of friends likes to maximize the fun as much as possible when we go out, and one of our great tricks too achieving this is a bucket list! We create an outrageous list of things to accomplish during an evening (e.g.: convince someone that we are famous). The bucket lists gets everyone excited to go out and also gives everyone some goals of the night. 

Guidelines to making a crazy bucket list:

·         Make the goals as outrageous and ridiculous as possible!

·         Plan the list for more than one-night (like all of summer or a trip somewhere), this way you have more opportunities to get all the goals done, and you can add along the way

·         Make a funny title for the list, just incase you get caught attempting to complete the list, tell them you are trying to completing the “Ball so hard London list!”. They will probably be too overwhelmed or confused to understand, and just walk away.

·         Although the goals are outrageous, make sure they are realistic! You don’t want to try to strive for something that is impossible to achieve or even illegal.

·         Make some competition with it (this always makes everyone want to accomplish the goal even more). E.g.: say a goal is to find/get money from strangers, what ever friend at the end of the night has the most extra cash gets to collect all the money from everyone else!

·         Have fun! Don’t take it too seriously; the goal is too create some good fun for the night. If you don’t complete the goal, don’t worry and try again next week!

Stuck and cant think of anything else to add to your list? Here is some of our ideas:

·         Ask someone: “where’d you get your pants from? The toilet store?” or yell “I’m in a glass case of emotion!”

·         Teach someone how to parkour (The Office style)

·         Play an instrument downtown

·         Dance with a “creepy” old man

·         Get someone to give you something (anything)

·         Play the movie quote game with a stranger

·         Single a man out, make eye contact, and sing to them (journey is great for this)

·         Break something

·         Steal something off the street

Hope you guys have fun with you list!
