281. The Spoke Club

the Spoke Club Toronto
The past week was quite eventful - went out most nights and still pretty busy with work. A few days ago I sort of umm..injured myself (my lower back) so I couldn't sit at a computer for too long, as it hurt. Slowly recovering now.
Last Monday night I went to Nikki Beach at the Spoke Club once again. Here's some photos of the night:

After that we went for late-night food (breakfast) at Fran's. For those who don't know, Fran's is a 24-hr diner type place. I've been finding myself here way too often in the middle of the night lately. My friends & I have really messed up eating schedules hhaha..

I love that my company deals with every industry I love..so now I don't feel as guilty spending $/time on reading magazines! Need some fashion ones as well..

279. Nikki Beach at The Spoke Club for TIFF 2012

First of all, thank you for all the nice comments on my previous entry. I think in my post I sounded more extreme and stressed than I actually was lol..but I have good news.
I love how things seem to always happen at the right moments for me. Life just did a complete 180. Yesterday I just got a new internship that I really really love - at a luxury PR firm! They do luxury lifestyle, travel, real estate, and fashion PR - all industries I love. I hope I'll eventually be able to work there because even though I've been assigned a lot of tasks to do, I still really enjoy it and it doesn't seem like work at all. Plus I can work from home! I'm already planning ahead and thinking of travelling and working at the same time. And as a bonus - my boss is extremely nice :)
Right now I mainly manage all their social media; I update the company blogs and keep their Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr active by posting everything related to the luxury industry. It's exactly what I do everyday anyway (for my personal accounts). It's funny in my previous post I was saying how I felt guilty for not doing anything for months (besides being online all day), now I'm literally doing the exact same but I have a reason to. I'm excited to start on our company's luxury travel blog. You may know I have one already that I've been neglecting (not because I don't like it though) so now I'm glad I "have" to do one. Love the thought of researching luxury hotels and cities everyday.

The other thing I've always wanted was to create a business of my own. After trying to think of a good business idea for months, my friend & I finally have one. Credit goes to him for the idea though. I think it has a great chance of succeeding. We're meeting this weekend to plan it more. Looks like I'm going to be a lot busier from now on, but a good kind of busy....it's nice that I'm feeling super productive for once hahah.

Ah I seem to be writing more and more on my posts these days. Thank you if you read the entire thing. Moving on.

Nikki Beach The Spoke Club
Last night my friend & I went to the Nikki Beach opening night at The Spoke Club !! They come to Toronto every year for our film festival. I've been looking forward to the opening for weeks, since I went to the one last year at the rooftop of Bell Lightbox & had a really fun night.

We arrived at The Spoke Club, they checked us off the guest list and we walked in. Was much less of a hassle than last year. Took the elevator to the top floor to find a huge crowd/line of people waiting to go up to the rooftop patio. A few min of everyone trying to squeeze their way to the front of the line, we found ourselves by the bouncers..I looked and realized one of them worked in my building before. He recognized me as well and let us up.

I wish they did it at the same venue as last year (the rooftop of Bell Lightbox is by far my favourite in the city). I found The Spoke Club's to be too small and it didn't have a great view. But it wasn't too bad, I really loved the music! Sorry these photos I took were kind of bad. Might try to go again so I'll take better ones next time.

210. Nikki Beach at Bell Lightbox for TIFF 2011


A few days ago I went to an opening party for TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival) on the rooftop terrace of Bell Lightbox! It was by Nikki Beach - loved it!! So nice up there. Officially the nicest rootop patio I've seen in Toronto so far. I really liked the set-up of it. The DJ that night was also really good..apparently he's from St. Tropez. He played that song "Welcome to St. Tropez" which is now one of my new favourites/on repeat. 



This was the terrace - there were steps that go to the top, and in between/every few steps would be a platform with couches. I'm not good with descriptions so here's a very nice visual




Amazing view of King St







They had some of these beds inside the tent. Very cool.


& a bed at the very top!


Entrance.


We also dropped by Brant House for like 10 minutes at first. Adrien Grenier was there (I don't watch the show but he's the guy from Entourage..he's also staying at my building!)


Apparently this is Russell Peters..not sure who the other people are.
