Free fun

I really have no money. I'm tired of uttering that phrase. It's boring to me, drab.

Someone who isn't boring to me, my little sister, flew in last Saturday to shake up my little life.

She had no expectations, but I did. I always have expectations of myself that generally exceeds what's financially capable. So, I stressed about about entertaining her. But, after our first day out on the town I did my best to let those feelings of inadequacy wash away. I wanted to enjoy every moment, every ridiculous moment.

Together I truly believe we're a force. One of my roommates commented on the way we speak to one another. She said it almost sounded like we were about to erupt into a fight, but no that's us being endearing. We've both always been two very impassioned young women.

She alone can walk into a room and completely fill it with her creative energy and spirit. I never used to understand it, but now I get it. She's so wonderfully complex and I love it.

So, we spent just a handful of days talking and walking because that's all I could afford. I wanted my sister to see parts of this city that she hasn't. I'm afraid this might be the last time we're together here. So, we made the most of it.

We had cheap to free fun:
Sunday * Walk throughout the Fashion District on Queen West St.
* Walk through little India - all you can eat Indian Buffet ~ $12.00
* Live Irish music & $6 pints at Dora Keogh (141 Danforth)

Monday * Walk through High Park's Free zoo. Photo op with Highland Coos & Bison
* Royal Ontario Museum 45 minutes before closing is ALSO free. Just a note the Dinosaur Exhibit is on.

Through both our walks and talks I was able to get a glimpse into how my sister is beginning to view the world. I was able to also see how she views it through her lens. These are some photos my baby sister (soon to graduate high school) took while here in Toronto.
