But now I am back, here to enlighten you about my goings on.<\/p>\n<p>Hmmm&#8230;.so what&#8217;s been up with me? I realized that a lot of the people I know were born in March. I don&#8217;t know why I had never realized it before, maybe it is because every single one of them decided to have a birthday party this year. Every weekend of the month was 3 parties plus declining a whole bunch others. Maybe I&#8217;m just so popular (HA!).<\/p>\n<p>I went to the new Ripley&#8217;s Believe it or Not Aquarium in Toronto. That place is fantastic, just beautiful. Here is some pics of the excursion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/blue lobster.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-757 aligncenter\" title=\"Blue Lobster\" src=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/blue lobster.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A blue lobster. There were also a couple of massive lobsters in there that I couldn&#8217;t get a good shot of because everyone was crowded around the tank &#8211; you can see one in the back there &#8211; but I thought the blue one was more intriguing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/mini reef.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-757 aligncenter\" title=\"Mini Reefr\" src=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/mini reef.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A mini reef.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/scuba.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-757 aligncenter\" title=\"Mini Reef with Diver\" src=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/scuba.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That mini reef with the fish following a diver.

People were nice as in there was very little pushing or shoving but it would be a less rushed experience with fewer people around.<\/p>\n<p>This past weekend saw the coming and going of 2 nerd-core days. May 3rd was free comic book day. I was lazy and left the house late so I kinda missed it and by that I mean when I got to the comic book store there were no free comics left. Sure I could have gone to another comic book store but that was way too much effort for that day. I did pick up a book I had been looking for for a while.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/happy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-757 aligncenter\" title=\"Happy by Grant Morrison\" src=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/happy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t read it yet but it looks&#8230;.interesting. I saw a preview for it on a show a while back and after a quick flip through it looks a lot more twisted than I expected. I still bought it because the comic book guy insisted that it was really good. We will see.<\/p>\n<p>The next day was May 4th, the unofficial Star Wars Day. If you don&#8217;t know why, what are you doing here? If you do know why, NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD! That was the same reply I gave my cousin when he messaged me about it. Then I promptly got out of bed (at like 2 pm) and watched <em>A New Hope<\/em> and <em>The Empire Strikes Back<\/em>. That was a good afternoon. This weekend I am going to have to watch <em>Return of the Jedi<\/em>, I have to complete the story.<\/p>\n<p>While watching the movies I did my nails, something I haven&#8217;t done in a while. I did do them last week but I didn&#8217;t enjoy the look much and a couple of weeks before that I tried to do them but failed miserably at the technique cuz I was overly distracted by the movie I was watching at the time but I will leave that for another post. I had a little fun with this week&#8217;s look.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/busy bee.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-757 aligncenter\" title=\"Busy Bee\" src=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/busy bee.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You would think I would have done something <em>Star Wars<\/em> themed but I am not that predictable. I did a spring time look, a little bee on its way to a flower. Adorbs, right? I know! I am also holding something equally as sweet. A Tunnock&#8217;s Caramel Bar. As the package describes it is a &#8220;milk chocolate coated caramel wafer biscuit,&#8221; I simply call it delicious. I was so surprised when one of the guys I work with brought it in, no one I know eats these and they are not that easy to find. Made my day. It will be my dessert after lunch. Gonna be a good Tuesday!<\/p>\n<p>Back to the nails, this look was done with 6 polishes, a dotting tool, and a small brush.<\/p>\n<p>Base\/Top Coat &#8211; Rimmel Lasting finish Pro Base\/Top<\/p>\n<p>Light Blue -\u00c2\u00a0UO &#8220;Crowded&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Red -\u00c2\u00a0Rimmel Lasting Finish Pro 375 &#8220;Stiletto Red&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>White -\u00c2\u00a0L&#8217;Oreal Steel Colour 910 &#8220;Seeing Spots&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yellow -\u00c2\u00a0LA Girl Disco Brites NL72 &#8220;Psychedelic&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Black &#8211; Rimmel Lasting Finish Pro 430 &#8220;Black Satin&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Next post, movies!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/icon-copy-profile.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-40\" title=\"icon-copy-profile\" src=\"https:\/\/underbellyofsunshine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/icon-copy-profile.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a>Tra<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;at a lot of things but really posting to this blog.
