December 2016 itinerary: Toronto > Ottawa > NYC > Ottawa > Toronto > Karachi > Toronto > Ottawa > Toronto
December Diaries is a series of craziness put together by yours truly to reach the full potential of 2016. It is also a 21st birthday gift to myself where I planned to be in places and with people that make me the happiest. This time, all the good omens decided to align with my aspirations and December Diaries started to shape up nicely.
After handing in four assignments on my birthday, I took a bath and a nap. I know, I’m a party animal. But for the next couple of days, I started dating Toronto again.
I ended up just walking around the city on my own and going to the Chihuly Exhibition at the ROM. Though it was a little pricey, it’s surely one of my favorites. I’m a sucker for anything shiny, fragile, and colorful that I am not allowed to touch.
My friends also took me to Milagros on King as a birthday dinner. We went to it once before and it’s number uno on my list of caliente Mexican food. I ate way too fast to take pictures, so I guess you just have to try it yourself.
Lastly, to further give into the consumerist holiday culture, my friends and I went to the Christmas Market at the Distillery. I’d been last year, and to be fully honest, I’m probably not going back again. It’s way too cold and expensive and they never let me sit on the merry go round.
