Today I took care of some of my homework stuff. Yay. I think I might get ahead tonight and do some more homework. I really should work ahead of schedule especially since I might not have internet at Spencer's right off that bat. I need to make sure that that won't kill my grades. Right now I have a 113 in my geography class. The class is really interesting. It makes me dream like crazy though. I want to help all the underdeveloped countries in Africa and learn Mandarin Chinese or move to Japan. Haha. :) I know... Chinese and Japanese are different, but yeah...

I just made a playlist for my boyfriend. So, when he comes I will download it on to his iPod and when he listens to it, he'll think of me. :) That's the plan anyway.

My dad wants me to clean the dining room. I don't know why he is being so adament that I do it. Actually, it is kind of bothering me. It isn't my mess. It is mom's and my sister's stuff. o.O He keeps giving me little suggestions of what to do with my free time and they all involve cleaning the dining room. Whatever.

I painted my nails today. They look lovely!

Also, did I mention that my mom got the cat a catnip plant? He loved it at first. I think he got a little sick of it though. Hopefully it keeps him out of her garden though. Haha, here's some pictures:

I don't think I've mentioned it, but his name is Thomas.

Sometimes we call him Monster.

He's my handsome lil man.

That's all for now!

Preparing for the weekend

Today I had an unusually busy day... As far as my days are concerned.

I went to the pool and tanned, read my geography chapter, cleaned the living room, did dishes, and cleaned the kitchen. I still need to clean the refridgerator though. That will be on my to-do list for tomorrow.

I also got some new books from the library the other day. Yay! :) I got a couple self-help books, one audio book, and one book that I've been dying to read for a while- Matched.

My mom got to learn how to use a cell phone today. Yay! Haha, she was so cute because she got all excited when a text came in or whatever. I think she get used to it very quickly.

Spencer also said that he got Sunday off to go rafting with my family. I'm super excited now. I'm happy that he will be able to get away from his two jobs. He definitely needs a break from all the crap they are putting him through at this time.

Right now I'm about to work on some more geography homework, so I should probably focus.

           Peace out girl scout!

I'm here without you baby.

I miss Chico so much! I wish I were with him right now! I know that he needs the company and support right now and I just want to be there for him. The best I can offer him is infrequent phone calls. :(

So, in my downtime I've haven't been doing much. I watched a full season of a Korean drama called Coffee Prince. I'm glad that some people take the time to add subtitles to shows like that. I loved the show! It made me want to be a hard little worker like Eun-Chan. Plus, I just think some boys are so cute! :) Don't tell Chico! Haha.

Hmm, a few weeks ago Chico and I got into a huge argument. We are better now, perhaps because of it. A lot of issues got taken care of. Anyway, that same day during my tear-filled pity party I got my package from E.L.F.! Yay! I haven't used everything yet, but I have used some of it. I love it, but I am not letting myself buy any more... Which is so hard. I keep getting their offers in my e-mail. Ugh! I have no money! Here's the stuff:

That same day my friend texted me, wanting to hang out. My parents all but kicked me out of the house so that I would stop moping about. My mom and aunt gave me some money. Soooo... I bought a shirt and a pair of capris:

Plus, that day I got a new wallet, bright bangles, and some earrings. I don't have those pictures though because my boyfriend has my camera and he's two hours away. :(

Oh and here are my nails from that day.

You might not be able to tell at first glance but my thumb has a sea horse, then a butterfly, a turtle, a cow, and then paw prints. The turtle came out the worst. I definitely need to buy some darker green polish.

Well, I really just wanted to update since it has been awhile. I find myself procrastinating because I don't do much, but I guess I should change that, huh?

                         So long,

Today I...

Played the Wii and watched a movie with my little sister. We played Mario Party 8 and she totally dominated. I mean she seriously won ALL of the stars. I felt a tad bit pitiful. :( Haha, then we cleaned up the house a little bit... Well, just my/her room, the living room and a bit of the dining room.

Then her and I watched Gulliver's Travels with Jack Black in it. I liked it. I mean, it was totally predictable, but it wasn't scary or sad. Haha. I needed a good happy movie! Cathlene had already saw it with my dad so she wasn't mad when I guessed everything out loud before it happened.

While 'cleaning' the dining room I went through some of the boxes of my clothes. Now I'll have more than a few shirts to pick from and I don't have to go crazy searching for underwear. That's a plus, right? Right now I'm going through the process of washing all my clothes. I don't know where I'm going to store it all, but I'll figure something out. Hopefully.

I also watched some videos of people clothing hauls, make-up hauls, and storage solutions. This made me want to think of cute ways to decorate my dorm come fall. I really like this bedding from Wal-Mart, but they don't have it in xl twin so I might buy it in a full size and just suck it up when it doesn't really fit.

Sorry the picture is kind of blurry. I cannot seem to be able to get a bigger, clear picture of the bedding. I'm so excited to move back into the dorm though! I just want to decorate! Haha. :)

I did my nails again, I'll update with pictures of that later. Oh, I also did some extra credit for my online Geography class. :) Starting off on the right foot. Heck yes. The class officially starts at 8:00AM today... So there are still about six more hours until I am an official student, but whatev!

I need to go change the loads of laundry and maybe clean the kitchen and go through some more clothes. I should go to bed because my Aunt Mellissa is coming tomorrow, but I'm a bit of a night owl lol.

Later Gators!

First Post- Nails and Seventeen!

This is my first post! Woo-hoo! I guess I'll just jump right in!

First of all I'm super excited because I just got a free one year subscription to Seventeen magazine! I do a program call e-rewards where I take surveys and am awarded points. I saved up enough to get Seventeen! Next on my list is gettin a subscription so Shape. I'm super happy that doing the program has actually paid off. Now I don't have to feel bad about feeding my magazine fetish.

Next on my agenda- Nails!

 I do my own nails quite frequently. It saves me tons of money and makes me feel a bit more confident. I would be lying if I said that I don't appreciate the compliments that I get as well. However, it is obvious that my friends don't get their nails done frequently or else they wouldn't be so impressed with my freehanding skills. I do okay for free-handing, but I'm going to try to do things a bit more professionally. I JUST purchased a nail stamper/ scraper and a set of nail plates from amazon.com. They should be arriving no later than June 9th. I'm so excited! I can't wait to try out my new sparkly green nail polish on them!

Here are some of my nail designs...

These are pretty simple. I do have a couple more but the website doesn't seem to want to upload them.

Well, I think that is enough for now...
