JAX fish house ~Happy Hour~

YUUUMMMMM!  Best Martinis EVER!!  

Jax is a classy yet not yuppy at all.  We had great service, my Roommate and I weren't too fond of the Cucumber-avocado Gazpacho soup and the waiter brought us a different soup to try on the house.  
We hit up happy hour which is from 4-6pm everyday.  We shared the Calamari which was perfect had two side dipping sauces that were very tasty (little spicy).  I had two cucumber lemon press martini's and my roomie had the strawberry lemonade martini.  Hers was good a little sweet for me but mine, omg I could have drank them all night if they didn't kick my ass after the first two.  I would suggest this for a nice evening coctail with friends or even a loved one, very classy and again great service.  10/10!!

~Fly Away With Me~

Got a little ink this weekend, people keep asking me what it means and I really didn't go into it with a reason other than I was just craving some ink.  But for those who are looking for a meaning... 

At this point in my life I would say it's just a reminder to spread my wings, meet new people, do new things, and keep moving forward.  There it is.  

Kate Nash "The Nicest Thing"

"The Nicest Thing"

All I know is that you're so nice
You're the nicest thing I've seen
I wish that we could give it a go
See if we could be something

I wish I was your favourite girl
I wish you thought I was the reason you are in the world
I wish my smile was your favourite kind of smile
I wish the way that I dressed was your favourite kind of style

I wish you couldn't figure me out
But you always wanna know what I was about
I wish you'd hold my hand
When I was upset
I wish you'd never forget
The look on my face when we first met

I wish you had a favourite beauty spot
That you loved secretly
'Cause it was on a hidden bit
That nobody else could see
Basically, I wish that you loved me
I wish that you needed me
I wish that you knew when I said two sugars,
Actually I meant three

I wish that without me your heart would break
I wish that without me you'd be spending the rest of your nights awake
I wish that without me you couldn't eat
I wish I was the last thing on your mind before you went to sleep

Look, all I know is that you're the nicest thing I've ever seen
And I wish that we could see if we could be something
Yeah I wish that we could see if we could be something
