Freaky Friday (now with more cats!)

Sorry, I didn't mean to not blog yesterday, I just got busy.
Not that it matters, I have no idea what to blog about.

I've just been chilling at Tyler's this week and it's been a ton of fun.
Fun for us is just watching TV and eating and saying witty things to each other, haha.
---

Omg, look at how cute this shirt is.
It's like someone said, "Let's make a shirt especially for Jacqui Zebraskiin!"
(found here)

---

The greatest discovery of my life:
Maine Coon Cats
They are, like, the biggest domestic cat breed and can grow to be 10-16 inches tall and 10-25 pounds.

What's more awesome than a cat?
A really, really, really big cat.

---

So I registered for Spring Semester at Mt. SAC this week and it sucked.
I had my schedule all picked out and I only got 1 out of 5 classes I wanted. ):

But I guess it's okay because then I made a whole new schedule with four classes and they are only on Monday and Wednesday.
I'm pretty excited for all the free time.

And if all that open time isn't enough to help me land a job, I don't know what is!

---

Tyler and I made some of the famous Carbajal macaroni and cheese this week and guess what!
We didn't mess it up!
Even though there isn't a real recipe just guesstimates, haha.
(not ours but looks just like that)

---

These are the cutest headphones I have ever seeeeeen!
(found here)

---

Laser Cats 5 definitely deserves the Academy Globe.

---

I am so tired of my bangs being in my face all the time like some loser at Hot Topic.
I really want to cut them super short, like this~~~

I'm just not too sure if it'll suit my face...
What do you think?

---

This week I read The Giver by Lois Lowry for the first time since 7th grade.
This is soooo not a children's book!

But man, it's still a good read and it has such an interesting story.
If you haven't read it, I def recommend it.

---

Well, I guess that's all for now.
I'll try not to miss again.
I hope you have a good weekend. (:

Monday, Monday, Mondayyyyy

"This week or last week
I don't really care about it anymore
I write myself this later
I tell myself you let me go
Without me
Oh what's wrong with you
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday..."

-Tegan & Sara

I hardly know what day it is. I don't have school or anything to do.
I've been home for less than three days and I want to go back to Clovis, already.
I have, like, one friend here who I actually hang out with.
I mean, yeah sure I have friends but not ones that I can just text out of nowhere or just hang out with and do nothing.
Seriously, Tyler is my best friend.
We can be doing separate things and as long as we're in the same room I'm happy.
And here it's a lot harder to feel happy.
I sound so depressing but, it's the truth.


So anyways, some good news: I'm on the Dean's List at Mt. SAC and I can now join Alpha Gamma Sigma.
I thought that was a sorority but I guess it's an honor society and they have scholarship fundssss.
So I'm thinking about joining~

And I really hope I get the classes I want when I register or I'm just gonna be stuck at Mt. SAC for 5 years or something.


So some creative stuff I want to do is:

---> make a needle roll

---> make a garland

---> have a photo shoot

---> knit a pair of socks

---> sew a ton of pillows for my bed


That's all I'm worrying about right now.
There are a ton of other things I'd like to try and learn but for now, these are the major things.


Today I need to clean up my room.
I was trying to find something yesterday and in the process, destroyed my room.
This is actually the messiest it's been this year.
Weird...

I also need to just knit that other mitten and get it over with.
I mean, the sooner I have it done the sooner I can relax or start working on other things.

I also need to sew some jeans.
It's weird having more than just one pair of jeans.
And also annoying because I have to sew all of them to fit.


Well, I better get started on all of that.
Have a good week. (:

Freaky Friday (Saturday Edition)

Sorry I wasn't here yesterday, I drove home from Clovis and then went out to dinner for my dad's birthday.
Oh, and then I hung out with Luna, Jessica, and Chance and we talked mad shit on some fat guy and watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

So here's your blog today! Haha.

Well, I've been back for one day and I already want to go back to Clovis.
I like to just hangout with Tyler even when we aren't doing anything.
And guess what!
March 1st we'll have been together 3 years.
So yeah, suck on that.
So anyways, when I was in Clovis we didn't do much.
Just hung out and watched movies and ate food and Tyler went to school and knitted.
Check out what I knitted, daaaawggz.
The first mitten for somebody's birthday present...
And it's supposed to be an owl, if you can't figure it out.


And a hat for my dad's birthday.

I am really impressed at how much better I have gotten at knitting in such a short time. (:


Oh, and also, check out what Luna got me!
Pink pajamas with gnomes on them!
They are soooo cute.
And it's totally 4pm and I'm still wearing them.
Hahhaa.


Well, I don't have really anything else to say so yeah.
I'm still trying to think about what else I could talk about on Fridays so shoot me some ideaaas.

Have a good weekend. (:

I tweeted and posted a Facebook update.


But if I didn't mention you, thank you.
It means a lot to me that people I'm friends with and people I'm not that close with care about what I say.
And if it weren't for you, I would have stopped writing a long time ago.

Thank you. (:

Freaky Friday

This will be my 15th Freaky Friday but... I'm tired of it.
I can't really think of things to talk about and it's just gotten a little boring.
But I do enjoy having a weekly blog update.
Maybe I'll do "A Week in the Life" and talk about my week or something.
I don't know.
But that's what I'll do right now, talk about what I'm working on a such.
So here we gooooooooooo~~

So last week before I went to Clovis I decided I needed a purse.
And most purses just don't appeal to me so I made my own.
I've been hoarding this fabric because I loooove it and don't want to waste it.
It has the main pocket and then a pocket on the side for important stuff.
I also exploded two sewing machine needles on it.
And oh, it was worth it.


So yesterday Luna and I hung out and went to Victoria Gardens.
And when I went to pick her up her mom made me deviled eggs! Haha.
And yes, I ate all of them.
And then her cat Skippy who is usually scared of people sat on my lap the whole time.
And then he put his butt in my face, haha.
But dude, I want a cat.
If I have to move to Floooriida I better get, like, 3 cats. >:/

And then we went to Victoria Gardens.
I got this super cute dress at Forever 21.
I don't normally wear dresses but I love this so much maybe I'll start wearing them more... (;
I also got a red and blue striped v-neck sweater that is super comfy.

Then Luna and I just walked around because she'd never been to Victoria Gardens before!
Then we left and got the "new and improved" Domino's pizza.
And yeah, it is good. It's a lot better.
The cheese is actual cheese and the crust is the best part, it's garlicky and om nom nom.
And then we watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire aka Harry Potter and the Time Everyone Cheated.
I have now seen Harry Potter 1, 3, 4, and 6. We may be watching number 5 today...

And yeah, that was yesterday.

So lately I've been wanting to try some watercolor pictures.
I just keep seeing really good watercolors and I'm like, ooooh that is so awesome looking~~~


Soooooo pretty.


And this scene is always going to be the funniest scene from Clerks2.
(not meant for children, deff rated R)



I really need money because Tyler and Luna's birthdays are March 1st and it's also Tyler and I's anniversary and I need to buy presents but also, Luna and I wanna get tattoos and those are expensive.
We're totally going to get the Deathly Hallows symbol.
The few tattoos I've seen people get the crisp looking one on the left but Luna and I both like the crumpled on on the right.
So yeah, I need money, haha.

But I already know what I'm going to knit the both of them so that part is under control.
I'm knitting something for my Dad and Michelle's birthday which are both at the end of January and I really need to work on those today.
I just looooove knitting.

Oh and I really want to make a needle roll.

I have, like, 4 sets of DPNs, like in the picture, but I'd love to make one for my needle tips and cables.
I don't know when I'm gonna get time to do that, though.
After these two knitting projects I'm going to try and knit, like, 4 things in February.
2010 is definitely the year of knitting, haha.


I'm not really trying to open an Etsy shop anymore.
I was looking for a real job but if I'm going to be moving to Florida I need as much free time as possible to hang out with friend and drive to Clovis.


And since a lot of people have asked:
If I move to Florida Tyler and I will break up.
Yes. It's just the truth.
We'll be almost 3,000 miles apart and that sucks.
I mean, sure, we'll probably get back together in a couple years after we're both done with school.
And we were always planning to get married or whatever after college.
So I guess it's not that big deal...
Jkz yeah it is. It might kill me. ):


So yeah, on a brighter note I'm going to try and go back to Clovis tomorrow, shoot I need to talk to my dad still, haha.


And I hate you Mt. SAC.
Registration opens on January 19th and my registration date is January 28th.
So great. I'm not going to get any of the classes I want.
I just want to drop out. :/


Well today I'm going to clean up a bit and probs watch Harry Potter with Luna and then hangout with Max tomorrow and then drive to Clovis.
Super awes.


Sorry if this blog was too long. Haha.
Also, help me think of good weekly topics!
Have a good weekend. (:

Clovis and Florida

Hello!

So after my last post I remembered my camera originally came with a 18-55mm lens.
Imagine how foolish I felt when I dug that out and realized I had a macro lens all along!
So here are a couple pictures that I never could have taken with my other lens.


So yeah, anywaaaaaaaaaaaaaays, last week Idk when Tyler's sister Makkael was like, Sup I'm going to Clovis on Sunday wanna come?
So I was like, totally, like yeah duhhhhhhhhhh.
And on Sunday her and her new boyfriend Michael picked up up at 5pm and we hit the roaaaaad.
It was awesome and Michael is a lot better than Makkael's last bf. Haha.
We got to Clovis around 9pm and we all hung out with Tyler's family a lil and just relaxed.
Tyler started school the next day and after he left Max and Gen picked me up because they were stopping through on their way to San Francisco.
We had Denny's and then Tyler picked me up and we went back to his house.
We mostly just hung out and chilled.
Then Tyler had a night class so I downloaded Mean Girls and watched that and then took a shower and then I had a missed call from my dad...
He left a voicemail that sounded serious and I thought I was going to get in trouble for using my AmEx too much or that I needed to come home ASAP or whatever. I had no idea what was going to happen.

My dad's current job will no longer exist come June 30th.
And the only job that seems available at this time is in Tampa, Florida.
Yup. The exact opposite side of the country.
I don't know what to think or what to do.
Tyler's whole family thinks I should just move in with them, haha.
But then I think about Jessica who is going to not have her senior year of high school with her friends and I think that I can't just leave her all alone.
I don't know.
Hopefully he can get another job still here at PriceWaterhouseCoopers because man. This sucks.
So yeah, that is the most earth-shattering news I have ever received and thought you all had a right to know.

So enough sad stuff, here's some pictures of me and Tyler! (:

I'll probs upload all of them to Facebook tonight, so yeahhhh.

And this morning we left Clovis at 10am and got here around 2pm and I've just been chilling ever since.
I'm going to try and go back to Clovis next week because I don't have school until February 22nd and if I'm going to be moving to Florida I'd like to spend as much time as possible with Tyler.

So that's all for now, have a good rest of the week and I'll see you Friday. (:

Freaky Friday

Hello, how are you? Like those shoes, love your hair.

So this week has been party time all the time.
Tyler just left Wednesday night and I already miss him.
But while he was here it was awesome.
We hung out with people, ate tons of candy, went to the movies (say what?!), and huggled~~
So I don't have too many favourites today because I was too busy being in love, duh. Hahaha.



1. New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Jessica and I got this for Christmas and it is a pretty fun game to do when hanging out with people.
Especially when they are bad at it.
Hahaha.




2. Candy!

Tyler, Jessica, and I went to Wal*Mart and went crazy.
And I have eaten more candy than I should eat all year this week. Haha.





3. Macro/50mm lens
I have an 18-200mm lens right now and I'm getting pretty tired of it.
Yeah, it's good for landscapes and portraits and group pictures but that's not what I am interested more.
Now that I knit I want to take pictures of my projects and it's near impossible with my lens.
I am obsessing over 50mm lenses but I have zero money and it suuuuucks.
I am going to start saving money now and try to get one by April.
Because I have birthday presents to deal with first and I think I can do it by then.






So that's all I have for this week, sorry!
But guess what.
My knitting needles came this week!
They are KnitPicks Options Interchangeable Zephyr Acrylic Circular Knitting Needle set.
They are soooo awesome.
I haven't started any new projects yet because I still have a scarf and headband to finish buy I'm itching to use them.



Well, that's all for now.
Have a good weekend! (:
