dont read this blog mom and dad

this is random but i bought my parents their christmas gift yesterday its a rather large wooden statue of a girrafe (i just texted my mom "dont read my blog it talks about your xmas present") but its perfect cuz its from africa or something (they were missionaries in the congo for 3 years and my sister and i were born there and i had malaria i am ok now) so i had to carry this large wooden giraffe (comes up to my belly button) around toronto last night for a bit and ill have to fly with it back home tomorrow as a carry on

also when i studied abroad in south america-- the family i stayed with in peru had kids my age and one (renato) is working abroad in minnesota for a year to learn english and he gets there tomorrow and he is bringing inka cola mmm so good (pop that tastes like bubble gum and its yellow they only have it in peru and i think colorado maybe?) so thats cool and im driving a silver car this week but i keep trying to get in other silver cars first thinking its the right one which brings us back to that time in middle school when i went grocery shopping with my childhood bff leah and her fam and they had a van so i walk out of the grocery store and into the van and buckle up and look up to find the family who's van i just walked into all like who are you? whoops wrong family :)

berry the homeless guy is picky when it comes to sweaters

yesterday i parked in down-town toronto and was gunna check out muchmusic (canada mtv) just to see what it was like) and on the way there i stopped to use the bathroom at this smoothie store--  a girl working there named jacquie (from south africa) was like here i'll show you around toronto! i was like sweet! so i told her id go to muchmusic and then come back after she got off work-- went to muchmusic and it was cool and on my way back i heard 'lenay!' i was like who do i know in toronto and it was chrissy and angie helping out with revolve tour and we are just friends on facebook and never met in person ha! so that was super random so then us and jacquie from the smoothie shop drove around toronto and laid in huge clothes bin at a huge thrift store and then we were like lets each buy a 4.99$ sweatshirt and give them to homeless guys cuz its effing cold outside! then the thrift store was obviously closing cuz they shut off all the lights and we were like we can not see and my 4.99 sweater rung up as 7.99 cuz supposedly mine had a hood?! so mad just kidding kinda- first homeless man we see looks like a walking sleeping bag (he was walking in a sleeping bag), jacquie was like.. don? and he was like ... jacquie?! and then they hugged! it was so random!! turns out jacquie used to work at starbucks and hand out the extra sandwiches at the end of the night to homeless people including him and so he took a sweatshirt, his story: flew to toronto years ago to go to his sister's funeral (she committed suicide cuz her boyfriend beat her) and then just decided to stay and be homeless. next homeless guy Berry didnt want my sweatshirt (even with the hood!) cuz he didnt like green he only wanted angies. gave mine to a homeless guy named buck-- who suspiciously looks like an older buck the camera guy-- and one homeless guy named guy didnt want one -- then me and jacquie went out around town to skateboarding/art parties and then had a slumber party at my hotel and woke up for the free breakfast in the morning just as they were putting it away at 10am and we were like WAIT!!!! and they gave us bagels and there was a kid little hockey league or something staying there cuz a bunch of 10 yr olds and their parents were eating looking at us and i was like hi im lenay and this is jacquie and they said hi and then i asked them a few questions but they stopped answering them so we just laughed and ate our bagels and then went upstairs and jumped on the beds holding any loose appliance we found around the hotel room and took a lot of facebook pictures :) 

i do bad things don't judge me

k after europe i went to washington, stayed with a red bull sbm girl and her roommates till jason got there and went on the revolve tour with him for the weekend then we went to hawaii with 9 people from tour for a week for fun which was warm and wonderful and a lot of rainbows and then went to portland the next weekend for revolve tour again, and then i went home to MN for a week and now i'm in canada for a week and going back to MN this sunday where i will be for the holidays yay i get to be home for more than 5 days!! and my sister who lives in florida is coming back for christmas too which is thooper. i am not a horrible person but i did 2 bad things.... that i am thinking about right now.... we drove to canada first of all and at a toll near chicago it wanted exact change and all i had was foreign currency from europe so i just kept throwing in euros or pounds or whatever until it registered some as u.s. coins and let me through... thats bad thing number one... bad thing number two happened this summer i just cant remember if i blogged about it or not, i was in LA eating ice-cream with london (from MN but moved to LA and brandon and robb (red bull LA friends) and we got our icecream but then i decided i didnt like mine so i ''accidently dropped it'' on the ground so when they replaced it i just got a new flavor... ill update you if i do anything else bad.
