Good deed of the day.

I have the best warm and fuzzy story to tell. 

Today on the subway ride home from class and spin class (in which I almost chucked up today's breakfast) I sat beside a middle aged man who was content playing fruit ninja on his phone for the 20 minute ride I was with him. When he got up at Greenwood station, I didn't think anything of it until the old lady across from me asked if my wallet had fallen. Looked down and nope, not my Roots wallet. 

Quickly, I opened it to get any of his ID out and found his health card. She said the wallet belonged to the man who just got up. Luckily, I was getting off at the next stop and handed it to a TTC worker. After explaining whose it was, I went on my way. Hoping the man would be reunited with his wallet later in the day. 

As soon as I got to the bottom of the stairs I saw the man chasing down the subway train asking for it to stop because duh, his wallet was on. 

I got his attention and said I just returned it in the office and he was so grateful looking.

As I sat in the 70a bus waiting for the driver to finish his smoke, I hurt a tap on the window from outside and saw the man. He looked so grateful and so relieved and blow me a kiss saying thank you. 

As much as I helped that man, it made me so happy to know he got his wallet back with nothing missing. 

See, Toronto does have good people living in the city.

Things you hear in Toronto


'We are Canadians and we love snow"- at placement

"He is convicted of manslaughter, 6'0 with a tear drop tattoo under his right eye"-on the news

Person 1: "this isn't cold, I used to live in the prairies"
Person 2: "Oh? It's that cold?"
Person 1: "Not really...I remember a few days being -30, so not that bad"-evesdropping on the subway

"I wanna go to Nunavut for a day...or 5"-again on the bus

'Tanev's playing tonight!"-everyone in my neighbourhood

"Is it cold out or cold-cold?-there is a difference

Yup, those are the types of conversations I have overheard in the past weeks.

These vidoes make my life.

I'm sure y'all have seen the new viral videos Shi*t Girls say on facebook and youtube.

If you haven't here you go! It's creepy how true it is.

episode 1


episode 2
I love watching them and having tears coming down my face because they are so true and funny.

This week, a friend on facebook upload the Sh*t People never say in the GTA (greater Toronto area)


The Scarbourgh Town Center one kills me. Good mall, horrbile bathrooms. Everytime you go into a stall there is loads of pee on the seat. Not just on the lip but at the back. So gross.

The best one is the one my school made, it might not be funny to y'all but enjoy!


Does your town or city have a video like this? Let me know, I would love to watch them.
