I’ll admit it, I’m not a self-proclaimed fashionista. I don’t wear make-up, I wear my hair in a pony everyday, and baggy t-shirts and sweatpants are a go-to for me.

12 Minutes from west Calgary to downtown? That’s what Transit says in their West LRT advertising as it finally opened on December 10th. I will become a frequent user of this line as I live in this area of the city, so I’m very excited about the opening. Does the travel times actually…
DetailsThey say our teenage years will be the time of our lives but does that mean once we are mature the fun will mysteriously disappear? Well in my case I hope it doesn’t because I believe we live to have fun and enjoy. Let’s be serious, do people work all their lives for nothing? No…
