Last week we wrapped up the Ontario leg of Ford Canada’s Drive to Discover Tour. I had the pleasure of working along side amazng ladies all week long.
Not to mention many laughs together.
So what’s the deal about this tour? Ford brings excitement to you with the Drive to Discover Tour. Currently Ford is asking you to Go Further in 9 cities across Canada to give you the chance to get hands-on with the new cars.
…and then you add our team! Handpicked & High Energy. Smart & super talented!
We allow you to star in your own adventure video and generally have the MOST fun imaginable.
Ford’s Drive to Discover Tour allows you to experience features like Active Park Assist while behind the wheel of a Focus, Focus Electric, Fiesta and all-new Escape.
My specialty is knowing the 2013 Ford Fusion inside out!
Pretty swaggy to add ‘Ford Certified’ to my resume 😉
The above photo basically sums up all of the love on this tour. The Gucci is because I went shopping.
We met a lot of sweet Ford Fans. A lot of people were interested in Ford’s newly redesigned all electric Ford Focus.
Imagine, no more gas fill ups, no more oil changes?
cool.
Personally I feel this should be the norm.
#FACT: they were all the rage wayyyyy back in the day.
A lot of people are rightfully impressed with the newly redesigned Ford models. New models have an out-of-this world redesign, a bangin’ Sony sound system, tonnes of available features and a sleek new interior.
Positive feedback from a LOT of curious passerby.
Truly memorable moments include our hotel stays, our hotel finds, sunshine every day, & late night, ladies-nights!
What a fun few days this was!!!!

Were you one of the thousands of Moto fans in Walton Ontario for the Monster Energy CMRC Canadian Motocross Nationals?
Tweet me your best photos! Follow @TheresaLongo
I had so much fun with ‘the Julies’ in Walton. I totes practiced my french and the ladies totally brushed up on their English. We talked to a lot of sweet Moto fans. A bit of wind made the ’30 second board’ kinda tricky but overall, the weather was perfect! Gorgeous sunshine all day. We took a lot of photos. Loved staying at the Arden Park hotel in Stratford Ontario. Stratford is beautiful.

The 2012 series kicked off the circuit in Nanaimo, British Columbia, & Kamloops the following weekend. I joined the series as it moved east.
Walton hosted the final stop of the tour. What an exciting weekend!

1. Always be yourself. If someone else doesn’t like it, who cares baby!
2. Always enjoy life and never take anything personally. Ever. Even if it appears someone insults you repeat to yourself: “it is not so” and smile. Things are not what they seem.
3. Envision your goal. Don’t stop until you get it. KNOW you create your entire world.
4. Always operate from logic and reason, never emotion.
5. Realize your thoughts. Make the most of your time. Use notes and plan.
6. You are always doing exactly what you should be. Always. Remember this often. Take a moment daily to look around yourself and your surroundings, instead of getting lost in never ending thought.
7. Ask yourself often “Who am I?”
8. Maintain a very lighthearted approach to life. Things aren’t always what they seem. This is why is is crucial to your success that you NEVER worry.
9. Encouraging, aiding, and LOVING the success of others also facilitates your own success. Genuinely lift others up when you have the opportunity.
10. You can do it! You can do anything. Know this. Truly.
11. Take care of yourself! Stretch, drink water and get a massage.
Here is a fun lesson in how we perceive reality taken from Buddhist teachings: When you look into a mirror are you looking at your face? The answer is no. You are looking at a mirror. The mirror is simply a reflection, creating an illusion. A mirror is not accurate, nor is it tangibly you. Do not let what you see in the world fool you. Things are not what they seem. This is why, moment by moment, before we consider our automatic response to situations it is important to pause first; to look quietly – in attempt to better understand what it is we are truly seeing. Lastly, every opportunity in your life, every event – is a chance for you to express Who You Truly Are. This is why it is important to be thankful in all situations. Even in the most terrible situations: You are given the chance and opportunity to choose your reaction. Keep this in your mind, and next time you find yourself in a long line up, or running late, choose your reaction for the better – and thank the energy force that allows you to express yourself freely in these situations. Positivity is contagious, and when you dish it out a lot, the Universe has no choice but to keep sending you a lot more of it. The only way you can know this is to practice, and watch how far you soar.

This regimen outlines my favorite diet tips for physical improvement and longevity. I feel the best I have ever felt in my entire life. Follow this diet and your skin will be bright, your energy level superb, and your mind clear and alert. Your cardiovascular system is improved and your digestion is impeccable. When you are faced with the choice to eat something ‘not so great’ – just imagine what your body will look like in a few weeks if you stick to the plan. I actually watch my skin (particularly my face ) grow younger before my eyes. You have everything to gain by making small adjustments….

This year marks the 20th Anniversary of the 2012 Monster Energy Motocross Nationals. I was part of the Ste-Julie tour stop, where we were treated to perfect weather and large crowds.
Angela and I had an exceptional day working the podium and strutting our stuff across the gates as Moto Rounds were announced. We took turns doing the 30 -second board and in between takes we chilled out in the big rig testing the sound system and enjoying great food. The series now takes a week off before its eastern most stop at the famed Riverglade track just outside beautiful Moncton New Brunswick August 5th weekend.

I’ll be at the next stop!

Recently I filmed a spoof with the Friends of Canadian Broadcasting at Chorus Entertainment. The PSA explores the many future possibilities of CBC programming. I had SO much fun shooting at Chorus Entertainment. Everyone on set was really wonderful to work with. We had a lot of laughs in between takes.
Aaron (middle) is ready to wrestle? ! ha!!UncleD & King Lau & I!

OK, maybe not yet… but with how the Harper government has been treating our public broadcaster, is Lance Fury so far off? Help stop the CBC Smackdown by taking action at http://www.cbcsmackdown.ca “
Personally, while I do not really have an opinion on the affairs of CBC, I totally had a blast filming this PSA for FoCB.
What do you think the CBC should focus on? Should it run American game shows and American-style reality shows, like Wheel of Fortune or Battle of the Blades?
Should it strive to be more connected to its audience, as the Globe argued in a recent editorial? Or should aspire to better arts programming, as TV critic John Doyle proposes?
