EVENT | Be Extraordinary hosted by Faze Magazine

Faze Magazine loves to throw fun—and free!—events for all the lovely young ladies throughout the
year and the most recent one featured awesome performances, beauty stations and for the first time ever, a fashion show. I was helping out behind-the-scenes all day, so I don't have a ton of pics, but a photo gallery will be posted up soon onto Faze.ca!

 Yummy treats, swag bags and a gorgeous venue!

Faze Magazine @ Student Life Expo

Making the big step (or leap) from high school to post-secondary can be stressful and frustrating at times. You want to snap at anyone who asks you "So what are you going to do with your life?" because really, you have no idea. But sometimes it's all about getting out there and trying new things and doing research into what is out there to help you out. Believe me, there are tons of resources out there but it's up to you to find them.

Luckily for you, there are great events that make it a little bit easier. Earlier this month, the Student Life Expo was held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, bringing together lots of speakers, schools, and helpful tools to give you the information you need when making those important decisions.

I was at the expo with Faze Magazine, since we had a booth and were the hosts of the main stage. It was a lot of fun - we had free beauty stations all day and even brought some celebrity guests, including some of the cast members of Degrassi.

Jessica Tyler @ Faze Magazine's Glow Girl 2012

You may recognize her from the hit Canadian series Degrassi as Jenna Middleton but she is much more than just an actress on TV. On the show, Jessica Tyler is often seen with her guitar and is known for her talent and passion for music. And we were fortunate enough to have her perform on our Faze stage at this year's Glow Girl event - and we even got to celebrate her birthday with her! We had the whole venue singing Happy Birthday and she got some adorable cupcakes as well. It was so great to have her there!

 The video team and I did an interview with her after her sound check before the event began - it was so nice to meet her! Also, how fab is her glittery outfit!?

She's heading out on tour with Nelly Furtado for the Spirit Indestructible tour in the new year, so keep an eye out for when she might be in a Canadian city near you!
