Vancouver Cruise Ship Limousine

Cruise Time

The Olympics are over and my job as a Vancouver limousine driver had slowed down a bit. Luckily, cruise ships, weddings and grad seasons are kicking in VERY soon. Then I'll be driving 24/7 again. I love doing grads and wedding because people are always so happy and friendly. Not to mention, the tips are pretty lovely too. Ballantyne Pier had closed down this year due to lack of Vancouver Cruise Ships. Therefore, all of the ships are going to be at Canada Place. It is also very surprising that we are booking more Canadians than American cruise ships transfer this year. Did the US economy drop that badly? I wonder. I wish I could be one of the lucky ones and go on a cruise as well. Just sit back and enjoy an awesome 2 weeks of traveling on water. I really want to try out the Princess Cruise because I heard that the food on those ships are the best. The seafood are supposedly really fresh and delicious. My mouth is watering right now just thinking about it.

Here is a little introduction to Canada Place Cruise Ship Terminal for you foreingners:
Canada Place is located near Gas Town, which is an awesome place to visit if you are a tourist. There are tons of brand name stores and little ice cream stores, which are perfect for a hot day. Also, there was a historical museum which was pretty neat. I do not know if the museum is still there today, but if it is, that is a great place to go to with a friend or family. Anyways, enough of Gas town and back to Canada Place. Canada place is near the Pacific Ocean, which makes it a great place to take pictures of all the different ships that come in and out. Also, Canada place is filled with delicious restaurants, great gift shops and awesome hotels such as the Pan Pacific.

They're heeere!

You may ask "what's here?"

Well it's the Olympics! The Vancouver 2010 Olympics are finally here :-) I got to watch the torch run by a few times. There were even special guest appearances like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Wayne Gretzky, Rick Mercer... I didn't have Olympic fever until I saw the torch run by, and I'm pretty sure over 80% of Vancouver has Olympic fever right now! Last night, I went to the Olympic store at the Hudson's Bay Company in Downtown with a couple of friends.. holy crap, we had to line up a block just to get into the store, and when we got in, the hoodie we were gonna get was sold out! That's ridiculous :(  but in the end, we got a few Olympic mascot plushies, the awesome and super warm Olympic red mittens, and a scarf. When we went out, everyone was yelling and screaming because Team Canada won the preliminary hockey game! :D

Lady GaGa Barbie Dolls!

Wow guys...

Lady GaGa even has barbie dolls made after her! OMG, i wish i were a kid again haha. i'd totally play with my sister and fight with her over the prettiest Lady Gaga doll :) I found these pics during my break at Vancouver Limousine:

Take a look!!

Lady Gaga's Hello Kitty crazy outfit... the doll is created with absolute detail! Wow!

They look really identical! I was almost fooled at first...

I think these are pretty cute, eh?

Neat shoes :)

It's the scary Kermit the Frog outfit :P

Cool hair eh?

i'm amazed with the detail of these photos!

speaking of Lady Gaga.... "Bad Romance" just came on the radio LOL!

Lady GaGa

I have to admit, I'm a huge Lady GaGa fan! Her new single is so mesmerizing, everytime it comes on the radio I feel like dancing!

Has everyone heard it yet?


it's called "Bad Romance" and I love, love, love it! :-) I think my friends and I are going to perform this song at a dance show in a few months, but gotta start practicing.

Oh btw, I found a photo of Lady Gaga in a limo! OMG! I wonder if it was Vancouver Limousine's limo? I don't know, but I wish I chauffeured her! I could have gotten her autograph :P

She looks awesome. I love her outfit and her style, though at times it can be TOTALLY insane. Like that Kermit the frog outfit she wore? :\ hmm... but I still love her so whatever <3

New cell phone!

Hey guys, I'm back again.

So I managed to pay off my bills from the holidays! Haha, who woulda thought, eh? But thanks to you guys for booking with Vancouver Limousine...I had work over the holidays and I still have a little work. Well, I still have some money left over so I'm treating myself to a new cell phone! I am buying an LG Ice-cream cellphone.



Isn't it just wonderful? I wanted this phone for a year now, and I finally got the guts to order it! I know...finally *rolls eyes.* Well I'm getting the white one and it's only around $240.00, not bad for an Asian phone. I was looking at another phone, the Sony Ericsson Aino, and WOW! They're selling it for around $600.00 here in Canada! Isn't that crazy? What if I drop it? I'd have to get a new one... so yea, I'm sticking with the lovely LG ice-cream phone. I get to pick it up next week! I can't wait :) After I buy the phone, I'm gonna spend my next pay cheque on accessories for the phone, a case, and stuff like that. Yay!

New Years

Happy New Years everyone! I know I'm a lil late, but I've been busy with my new college courses and boxing week shopping, haha. On New Years Eve, I took the night off work at Vancouver Limousine to spend time with some friends to do the countdown and stuff. I'm glad that transit was free on new years eve! I wonder why they do that... maybe to make sure people don't drink and drive? Haha, who knows. So..what did you all do on NYE?

Anyways.. wow, I can't believe it! It's 2010 already. That means the Vancouver 2010 Olympics are going to happen really soon! I get 2 weeks off of school for the Olympics, so I guess I'm really lucky compared to other people. However, I think I will work during the 2 weeks and watch the Olympics on TV or something. I was browsing through the internet again and I found out that TransLink is offering Olympic bus/transit passes! They'd make great souveniers! I'd like to buy one, but they're too expensive :-( and besides, I have an awesome U-Pass! If you're interested, check out this site: 2010 Games Transit Pass. Oh no, the phone is ringing, ttyl :)

4 Days Left

Im doing a countdown till Christmas. And for those who didnt know, it is only 4 days left! Yippee! After that is boxing day. I can't wait untill I finally go shopping for myself (and not others, I dont want to sound selfish, but it sucks when you spend so much effort into getting a special gift and the receiver doesnt even appreciate it).
Im ready to spend all my money that I had made from working at my limousine job. I dont know if that's a positive thing or a negative thing. But at least Im making the bosses at my favourite clothing store happy: Garage, Urban Behaviour, Forever 21 and Mariposa are all going to love me. =) Maybe they'll even give me a discount! (oh man, i m sooo dreaming)
Anyways, this post is more about me cant waiting for boxing day then Christmas itself. Im sorry if i like receiving gifts more than giving them. But hey! im a human, what can i say?

Slept in

No work at the Vancouver Limousine office or the Whistler Star Express office today, so I slept in until now. Going out for a coffee at Blenz later and then Christmas shopping (yeah, finally!) at Richmond Centre and Metrotown Mall. Can't believe they open until 11 PM today, wow! My list is so long, I don't even know where to start.. but hopefully I'll be able to buy everything in time :-)

5 days til Christmas! Yay!

I was on Google the other day and I found some cool photos of different kinds of limousines! Check out this baby pink stretch PT cruiser:

Neat, eh? I've never seen this in Vancouver, but I wish my company had one though. I'd like to drive it around town, but then again, who would rent this vehicle? Ladies obsessed with pink? Or...? Nah, don't want to think about it.

Limo Vancouver

During my break today at Vancouver Limousine, I went and got my coworkers and I some Starbucks. My personal favourite drink is the caramel macchiato - absolutely delicious! However, comparing Starbucks' caramel macchiato to Blenz Coffee's caramel macchiato, I prefer BC's better! If you're lucky, your barista will make gorgeous patterns with the caramel, however, it has never happened with me at Starbucks yet :-S

Check out these cool photos! :-)

Snowy day in Vancouver, BC. - Best place to go to for coffee lovers ;-)

Last year's snow day in Vancouver. It was bad :-(


Yummy and not to mention PRETTY caramel macchiato!

Just got off work...

Just got off work at Vancouver Limousine and now I'm watching some Manswers on the internet... boy they are hilarious! Hahaha. Well there isn't much to do now except study for my finals. Yuck :-( it takes me an hour to get to the university, 3 hours to write the exam, and another hour to get back. I'm gonna be starving! :-(

Rain, rain, go away

Never thought I'd be singing nursery rhymes still, but seriously, it's been raining in Vancouver for practically the whole month! The only sunny day I remember this month was yesterday, and I was busy at home typing up a paper. I had to take the weekend off work at Vancouver Limousine again so I can study for my final on Dec. 2nd. Oh boy, I hope I pass this course because I'm failing miserably :-(

Vancouver Limousine

Ow...

Just got off work at the Vancouver Limousine office. Oh dear, my arm still hurts from the H1N1 shot! It's been over a week. Well of course, my friend punching my arm didn't help, nor the bus door closing on my arm. Man, I think I should go get a massage, but I don't know which place is good. For sure, I don't want an accupuncture treatment, it's waaay too scary... but I guess I could also wait for it to not feel so sore so I can save myself some money :-S. What do you reckon I should do?

Vancouver Limousine

Busy, bored, busy, bored...

'bin busy with my midterms at SFU, that's why I haven't been updating much. Got my h1n1 shot at the doctor's on Friday the 13th, and man! My left arm is killing me. It's been so sore and I can't move it more than a few inches... good thing typing doesn't hurt :-P.

Well I've been in and out of the Vancouver Limousine office this past week... some days it's crazy, phones won't stop ringing, but other days it's so dead it's spooky :-S c'mon, bring on the calls!

Panic Key

Found this funny picture:

Wish I had that around here! I'll press it at school at Simon Fraser University, at work at the Vancouver Limousine office, and whenever I'm stressed out! Like the other day while I was doing my biology midterm, my mind went blank and I wanted to press on this button!

Vancouver Limo

Achoo!

Crap.

I'm sick. AGAIN. =( I feel terrible. Went to the Vancouver Limousine office yesterday, worked the day shift, and had to leave early because I used a whole box of Kleenex, sneezed through the day, and couldn't answer a few calls because I'm losing my voice. ACHOO! S'cuse me. Went home and slept all night.

Well... woke up at 10 AM and boy do I feel better! Still pretty sick though, but minus the painful headache and sore throat :-D. Worked the morning shift at the Vancouver Limo office again and had some yummy chicken noodle soup for lunch. Guess I need to buy a warm jacket for the winter :-(

Limousine Vancouver

Ugh, the Jay Z are here today down at the GM place. Not that i dont like them, but that means my job is going to be more crazy. Why? Well, first of all, the streets are going to be jammed packed, the people are going to be drunk, wild, and excited, and the limos are going to be trashed, meaning I'll have to work overtime cleaning up the booze. NOT looking forward to that, but hey, a job is a job and I'll do it since Classic Limousine pays me well. Well, wish me luck!

All you can eat Japanese buffet

Rented a limousine from Vancouver Limousine last night and took my buddies to a restaurant in Richmond. It was my best friend's birthday and she didn't feel like doing anything except staying home so 8 friends and i arrived at her place in an SUV limousine and surprised her with gifts. She left them at home and rushed to change, when she came out she was wearing her new black dress from BCBG, and we all thought she looked stunning in it! We then cruised around her neighbourhood (Vancouver Westside) and went down Granville street to Richmond. I thought the inside of the SUV limousine looked great, there were disco lights and a newly installed fog machine, the only one in Vancouver I believe! We went to Ninkazu and it was like a feast, we kept ordering Tuna and Salmon sashimi and all sorts of things. A meal & a birthday to remember =). After dinner, our limousine driver took us to Downtown and we went to the Caprice nightclub. It was a great evening.

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving weekend :-)

The month of October!

The cold weather is here and Halloween is coming up! Time for me to go shopping with my little niece and nephew for their Halloween costume. Wonder where I should go shopping? I heard that Value Village has a huge selection for Halloween costumes. I have never been there before. I had recently heard on the radio that Winners is also having a huge selection of Halloween Costumes. Guess I can check both stores for Halloween costumes. My nephew wants me to go and check out Zellers. There are two places that I could go, Zellers at Metrotown Centre or Zellers at Oakridge Mall in Vancouver. Guess, I will be so busy shopping for my niece and nephew. That will be so fun, going around and trying on Costumes. Hope all of you will have fun picking your Halloween Costume. Have a fun and spooky Halloween Day and don't forget to get fireworks!!!!!

Tired

*Yawn* haven't been getting much sleep lately. Being a university student and a Vancouver Limousine driver at the same time sure is hard... but since we're in October, we're gonna slow down... everyone is. This is probably a tough time in the transportation industry.

Here's a pic of Vancouver Limousine's guard dog: Turbo!! :-)

Isn't he just adorable? Too bad he didn't growl like he does for the driver he hates!
