The Alberta School of Business has an awesome business case competition program ran by Doug Leong, and though I had been chosen to compete in external case competitions like the Ethics in Action Competition at Dalhousie University and the CPA Board Governance Case Competition, I was always uncertain if I would be chosen to go on an international case competition. This year, I got to compete on the JDC West Marketing Team, and through a stroke of good fortune and a zillion cases later, finally had enough experience to be chosen to represent the University of Alberta at the Champions’ Trophy Case Competition in Auckland, New Zealand. Most notably, the cases that we got to present on were addressing issues faced by New Zealand Rugby and Air New Zealand. After the case competition, we flew across the country to Queenstown, then to Wellington, and finally made our way back to Auckland for a final beach day with our new case competition friends from University of Auckland and Copenhagen Business School.

But at Hush they have two different types of lashes, either the volume or the natural set, so you can get whatever look It’s been great while being on vacation because I can go swimming and still look like I’m wearing mascara coming out of the water. If you like having the look of really defined mascara without all the effort in the morning, or want to cease the opportunity to be one with your thoughts, I would definitely recommend giving eyelash extensions a try. Also, I’d like to share that I am super excited to announce that Hush Lash Studio was Pink Pencil Skirt’s first ever partnership, huzzah!

This past Saturday, we hit up the Canadian Derby at Northlands Park – potentially one of the last horse racing events at Northlands if Vision 2020 goes ahead. Northlands has a bold vision for its future which includes creating an Urban Festival Grounds, converting Rexall Place into an athletic complex, and converting Hall D into a 5000-seat venue for sporting events and mid-sized concerts. While it’s sad that the horse track may have seen its last Derby, I’m excited to see how this new vision will unfold, especially if it means Edmonton could host a Lollapalooza or Osheaga of our own. As for the horse races, Horse Racing Alberta has received bids from four separate groups, but fingers crossed that the track stays close to Edmonton.

, I want you to be able to pick me out in a crowd, know that’s who’s representing you, you can go ask me questions,” Marina explains. When I ask her about this, Marina explains “there’s this ideal female candidate that’s just pretty enough but I do think that you need to look somewhat put together to be taken seriously, but it’s interesting, I think I cross a line that I’m not taken seriously because it looks like I spend a lot of time getting ready,” And it’s interesting because once you start sharing your views on social media, political parties and candidates will start following you, and that’s a really good way to get on the radar.
