London: A City Fit for a Queen

At the end of April, I fulfilled a lifelong desire of mine by embarking on a trip to my dream destination – London, England. Taking a cue from my favourite independent female icons from British History (I’m looking at you, Queen Elizabeth I and Jane Austen), I took the liberty of traveling across the pond and conquering my first trip to England as a solo adventuress.

Happy Birthday to yours truly!

Today, I turned 25. It’s official – I have now been living for a quarter of a century (and have been inducted into the quarter-life crisis zone with the other twentysomethings). It’s hard to believe I’m this old already!

I’ve been celebrating this birthday milestone throughout this first week of 2014 by indulging in many birthday freebies – such as this year’s Sephora Beauty Insider birthday gift (lipstick and mascara deluxe samples from Make Up For Ever), a free bacon cheeseburger from Red Robin, a free Rooty Toothy Fresh ‘N Fruit Pancakes combo from iHop, a free entree and dessert from Milestone’s, a free appetizer and chocolate cake from Boston Pizza, and free drinks from Starbucks and Booster Juice. Thank you to my Mom and to my friends for accompanying me on these excursions! If you want more info on how to score these deals on your birthday this year, just ask me. 🙂

I captured some birthday memories on the Nokia Lumia 1020, all thanks to Rogers Social Insider!
