Freaky Friday~

Sorry I missed last week!
I just suck at blogging in the summer/when Tyler is here.
Because I blog when I don't have anything to do but now I have lots to dooooooooooo.
So here is some stuff from last week and this past week.
Enjoy~

I really really really want this camera bag.

 I really like the red striped one.

 Too bad it's $150.

I mean, I realize I have, like, $600 but I want it to last.

This bag just needs to stop being so freaking tempting.

You can read the specs for it here.

I didn't do much on the 4th of July. I'm not a fan of pool parties, barbecues, or fireworks.

So Vance, Max, Jessica, and I just watched some Independence Day.

I watch this movie pretty much every 4th of July. 

And it never gets old.

Especially that Jeff Goldblum. Mee-owwwwwwwwwwww~~~

I super duper cleaned my closet this week and it is awesome~

Yup, I completely emptied it out.
And I dusted and vacuumed all of it.
I even thought about painting it but then was like, nah.

And tah-dah, it's super duper clean!
I got rid of around 4 garbage bags of trash and junk and clothes.
Such an awesome feeling~

While cleaning my closet Max and Vance come over who quickly discovered I have Titanic on VHS.

So yeah, we watched it. Haha

Max cried his eyes out the whole time.

   

Wednesday I did a photoshoot with Victoria~

On my Flickr

 On my Flickr

On my Flickr

And the rest of the set can be found here so please check them out! (:

Max, Vance, Jessica, and I were hanging out Wednesday night when Max threw a hissy fit saying that if we didn't watch Paranormal Activity right that moment that he would just leave.
Just straight up yelling saying, "No. I only wanna watch Paranormal Activity. I will not watch any other movie ever. Only that. Nope."
So. We watched it.
And I did not sleep well the rest of that week.

  

Thursday was Laurren's big cosmetology test so she could get her license!
I was Laurren's model and it was soooooooooooo boring.
And my hair got super disgusting.
At the end of the day it was seriously just dripping with gel.
And Laurren didn't wash it before we left, and it sucked.
But in exchange for wasting a whole day doing the most boring thing ever Laurren finally cut my hair.

It is super duper short.
And it's all my natural hair colour and I'm not gonna dye it for a long long long time.
And I loooooooooooooooove it. (:

So Thursday wasn't the best day but Friday morning I was woken up by...
Tyler!
He sensed I wasn't having a good day and drove down to my house around 1 or 2 in the morning.
It was super bananas. But also awesome. Because we're in love and stuff.

And he's totally been here since.
And we've been partying it up, like, every night~~~

 

On Sunday Laurren made me wear make up so she could start her portfolio.
It sucked.

And that the original 5 Buddies totally hung out and it was bananas.
We had Donut Man and tried to watch Pineapple Express and had seizures and stuff.
Just like the old days.

And on Monday Buddies drove to...
Las Vegas~

Reasons why we drove to Las Vegas:

1. To drop Laurren off at Matt's air force base
2. Eat at a buffet

 

(Best Red Velvet and best Carrot Cake I have ever eaten ever)

 And we had a crazy banana time and truly bonded like bffzzzz~~~
And here are a bunch of tweets from that day, haha.

JUST SAW KANYE WEST WALKING THROUGH THE DESERT 


"Can you guys believe that octopus was right?!"
"You don't even like sports."
"I LIKE OCTOPUSES! 


"You have a rainbow on your mustache!" 
"It's a mustache raaaaiiinbow~"


Buddies just sang all of TiK ToK. And the song wasn't even playing. We just knew it. YUP

 
WHEN IT'S TIME TO PARTY WE WILL PARTY HARD 


Andrew W.K. to Lily Allen to My Chemical Romance




I'm pretty sure we just got to Las Vegas in 1 hour.

 

 

IT'S VEGAS, BITCH

 

 

 I've never seen a brownie so dank.

 

 

 I am so full. I need to get my stomach pumped I am so full. And then I'll eat 5 more plates.

 

 

 "Hey you guys, pour this champagne on me!"

 

 

 "I used to watch Donny & Marie all the time."

"I could have totally guessed that about you, Jacqui."

 

 

 "I'm the funniest person in a 5 mile radius, at least."

"That's true."

 

 

 Max just told me that he doesn't like Death Cab for Cutie's "Plans" album and I literally screamed "WHAT" for 5 minutes.

 

 WE'RE SO INFINITE RIGHT NOW

 

 

 

 

 

 And the rest of the week has just been chillin, sleepin all day, partyin all night, and just havin an awes-ass time.

I hope you're having a good summer and I'll try to keep my blog posts more regular. (:

Bye~

Freaky Friday (An Apology)

I'm sorry I've been gone so long!

I feel bad about it, really I do.

I didn't do a blog last week because I had nothing to talk about.

I can't believe I am saying this, but I think I've run out of things to talk about!

And I never announced the winner of the workout competition!

So I guuuuessss I'll do that right now~

~*~*EMILY PARKS*~*~

She lost a whopping 15 pounds and 10% of her body weight!

Second place was ~*me*~ having lost 7 pounds and 4.6% of my body weight.

Third place was Francesca, who was very close behind me, who lost 6 pounds and 4.5% of her body weight!

And I am proud of Veronica, Jessica, and Max joining this and trying their best to lose weight!

I am so proud of everyone, really. (:

So Emily, we must talk about your prize~

Text me soon!

So as you may have heard I've been super duper busy having a job.

It's pretty cool.

I just sit all day making the minimum wage.

And at the moment I have $650 in the bank!

Such an awesome feeling.

I'm going to try and stretch this money for all of summer so that I don't have to ask my parents for any money for at least 2 months.

But it's hard though because I can totally buy a new lens with that money or a whole new camera.

Or just other various expensive things, haha.

So next week I'm gonna super clean my room and hopefully have a yard sale some time this summer.

Oh and also the idea of starting an Etsy shop is worming it's way back into my mind.

But I haven't sewn in a really long time so yeah...

But I am starting a baby quilt soon!

So hopefully that will motivate me to start being creative and sewing and making stuff again.

Not that I haven't been making anything.

I'm currently knitting 5 separate things.

Yeah, it's a bit much.

One needs to be done before next weekend, one by the end of July, and one by the beginning of August.

The other 2 are just whenever. But I should probably finish Roseanna's hat soon, heh.

Oh and look at these cute knitted toys!

Pigs in wigs!

Bed bugs~

And a television!

Which are all from Mochimochi Land's new book!

Which is now available on Amazon.com and I'm probably going to end up ordering it as soon as I'm done with this blog.

(Along with a camera remote (finally).)

But gosh, all of these patterns are adorable.

I can't wait to make them. (:

In case you haven't heard, I got a Pro account on Flickr!

 Because of this I have gotten a lot more views and a lot more comments and it feels soooo gooood. (:

And I've also made a bunch of new sets and have been uploading a lot more than usual.

You should probably check it out sometime...

In other news I've watched a couple of movies~

I really liked this a lot. I don't care that it had super low quality green screens or that everyone has known the twist ending since before it even premiered.

I liked it. A lot. The acting was good and looking at cute actors and the trippy flashbacks/going crazy parts.

It was awesome.

I hadn't even heard about this until Max asked me to go see it with him.

If you haven't heard of it you should look up the trailer on YouTube.

It was seriously funny and awkward and I loved it.

John C. Reilly starts dating Marisa Tomei only to find out her 22 year old son, who is Jonah Hill, still lives at home.

And Jonah Hill is slightly obsessive about his mom. And they do some weird stuff moms and sons should never do ever. Haha.

But I liked it a lot and I laughed quite a bit.

I definitely recommend it.

This movie was amazing.

Absolutely amazing.

It's about this man, Colin Firth, and his whole day where he is planning to commit suicide at the end.

You find out he's gay and his partner died 8 months ago and he hasn't been happy since.

The film is directed by Tom Ford who is a costume designer so all of the design elements are super beautiful.

It's a sad and beautiful movie and I loved it.

I also love the soundtrack which I have already listened to about 10 times and I only downloaded it two days ago.

Max and I watched this yesterday and it was hilarious.

I love the Coen Brothers already so I went into this movie knowing I was gonna like it, haha.

And I did. 

It's about a guy who wants his wife kidnapped so he can get some ransom money from his father-in-law so he can get out of his debts.

And then everything goes horribly wrong.

This movie is hilarious and full of Minnesotan accents and dummies.

Last week I read all 5 volumes of Scott Pilgrim.

The sixth and final volume won't be released until July 20th and I'm dyyyyyyying!

Especially because Volume 5 did not end on a happy note.

The whole series is about this guy named Scott Pilgrim who falls for this girl named Ramona Flowers and comes to find out that to date her he has to defeat her 7 Evil Ex-Boyfriends.

And the novels are about him fighting the Evil Exes, his relationship with Ramona, his band, and just Scott's life.

I loved them.

I definitely recommend these to anyone who likes graphic novels.

Alright, last thing~

I'm getting a hair cut today!

So this is your last chance to take in and appreciate my long hair.

And prepare for another very short boy hairstyle~

Well that's all for now.

Have a good weekend and keep having an awesome summer.

And I'm definitely going to try and blog more!

I promise!

Bye~~~

Freaky Friday~

What's up nerds?

Still crying about how high school is almost over?
Hahaha, jkz. Be sad whatever.

There. Did you get all your little tears out? 

Moving on, now.

So if you're a part of the the workout blog, here's some important info:

Last week I didn't ask for anyone's weights because it was the weekend of Prom and Memorial Day weekend so I figured I'd give you a week off.

Even though there's only, like, two weeks left.

So I will be asking for your current weight this weekend.

But there will be no workout tomorrow because I'm working on finals right now.

Wanna know my finals schedule?

I'm sure you do~

Monday June 7th

8:00am - Science exam (on everything we've learned this semester)

10:30am - French exam (on everything we've learned this semester)

4:30pm - Math exam (on everything we've learned this semester)

And my 5 page research on punk music for English is due but I'm just gonna email it in because I hate everyone in my English class and I never want to see any of them ever again in my life.

And also I'm pretty sure it's at the same time as my Science exam.

This weekend is so awesome. ):

So I have been taking a lot of pictures lately.

Here are some of my friend Micah and his friends at UCLA.

It was nice to see Micah and the shoot was a lot of fun.

His friends are funny and had lots of good poses planned.

I also took pictures of Jessica goin to prom and all her lil friends~

And if we're friends on Facebook you should definitely check out the whole album, there a lots of crazy cute awes chic captions~~

This week I watched *~*~*~2~*~*~* movies.

So I love this movie and I tried to play it in the living room DVD player once and it wasn't playing so I used my dad's DVD cleaner and it RUINED IT. And it was a very depressing day.

So Tyler bought me a new copy for Christmas two years ago, haha.

It was pretty awesome.

I love this movie and I know all of the words to all of the songs and all of the dialogue.

It's hilariouuuuuuuuuuuusssssssssssssssssss.

I watched this at Max's house last night and...

Hm. Let's just say that yes it totally deserved Best Picture.

Although I haven't seen Avatar and probs never will I guess my opinion doesn't mean much but whatever.

It was so sad and so interesting and the cinematography was so crazy at some points.

I was crying and freaking out and sorta yelling but not really because it was 1am and omfg.

This movie. Insane.

And is it just me or are there A LOT of good movies coming out?

Get Him to the Greek 

 

Jonah Hex

It has Josh Brolin (he is super fine), Will Arnett, John Malkovich (omfg lol), and, ugh, Megan Fox.

I don't like her and I don't care if you do.

I am unsure if I even want to see this movie, even though it looks super amazing, because she's in it and ruining it with her bad accent.

Scott Pilgrim vs The World

 

I think this looks amazing.

And I don't care that "omfg michael cera plays da saem guy in evry movie omfg lolololol" I like him and shut up~

And I mean come on, Jason Schwartzman is gonna be one of the evil ex-bfs and he is awesoooome.

 And the special effects look insaaaaaaaaaane.

Splice

Yeah, if you've ever heard of the movie Species you should know that they have very very very similar same plot lines, haha.

But whatever ADRIEN BRODY.

Need I say more?

So because I have so many damn pictures on my Flickr...

I need to buy a Pro account!

It's $24.95 for a whole year so I'm starting the

Get Jacqui a Freakin Pro Account Fund

So I'll take pictures of you and your friends and your pet and your family or whatever for $5.

I'll even edit them and whatever and put them on a disc if you want geeze whatevs.

But srsly. I need a Pro Account. ):

So help a brotha out~~~

So that's all for this week. I really gotta study and write and be busy and stuff.

Have a good weekend~~~ (:

Freaky Friday~ (Saturday Edition)

Sorry I didn't blog yesterday I spent all day at UCLA taking pictures of my friend Micah and his friends for end-of-the-year memories.

And when I got home I fell asleep for two hours.

Traffic is really exhausting!

So right now I'm getting ready for all of my finals and stuff and it sucks.

My finals week starts June 7th and I just want it to be over with already.

I am so ready for the summer and to (hopefully) have a job, and sleep, and knit, and sew, and read, and do all the stuff I haven't had time for.

Here's a couple of things I can't wait to knit.

Still have to finish Roseanna's hat which will probably take me three days, I just don't have that time right now. ):

This awesome lace scarf which is gonna be super challenging but I'm excited.

The coolest baby booties I've ever seen~

And a super awesome berry baby hat.

And I wanna knit tons of other things, of course, but these are at the top of the list right now.

Oh and I'm going to be doing a major sewing project for the first time since...

I don't know. I guess Tyler's Christmas Quilt.

A Peter Pan costume!

Haha, it's gonna be super awesome~

This week I watched Rocky Horror Picture Show for the first time in... I don't know, three years?

I totally forgot how much I love this movie.

And watching it I just think about the cool costumes I wanna make.

I mean, come on, look at Brad's tux!

A plaid cummerbund and bowtie?!

So freaking awesome.

Last night I watched Donnie Darko for the first time in a long time, too.

I freaking love this movie. 

It's about wormholes and schizophrenia and Sparkle Motion and jet plane engines.

Oh and it stars Jake Gyllenhaal and it really doesn't get any better than that.

And it's awesome because Maggie Gyllenhaal is also in it and they play brother and sister, haha.

Well, that's all for this week.

Now I have to go get a bunch of stuff done and do some homework and blagh.

I hope you have a good weekend. (:
