School has started. I’m excited for my Humanities class (even if the book is freakin $105) but a little worried. At least I have the next two weeks to focus on it before I have to go back to the Uni. Which screwed up our classes and some othe stuff. After that shit ass class though I’m glad we’re taking a break. So frustrating.

Besides that not much has been going on. I’m itching to go on some big huge shopping spree but even with money in my account I’m still hesitant to go shopping like I use to. I spent about 10 minutes trying to justify buying a book for $12. Which original price was like $16. I skipped on a MAC lipstick I really wanted (and it was the last one they had). And it’s just weird. Life without credit cards really changes you. And I mean I’m glad I’m more conscious of the things I buy but sometimes I just wanna go on a spree you know?

And because a blog is boring without pictures…

I finally tried those Luna Bar things and I’m obsessed with the Lemon Zest one. So good! And it has fiber and iron? YES! I’m also obsessed with the Hex Hall series. Demonglass was SO good. I’m excited for Spellbound (which comes out in March) but not because it’s the last in the series. Ho hum.

Went to Ikea with hubs. We were suppose to go jogging, but got a little side tracked. I love Ikea food! All this cost under $10.

Lucky me all these were on sale on Amazon for $8. The one on the far right (which is part of my 2012 Debut Author Challenge) is $18 originally so yay for that! I’m in the mood for light and quirky books/characters. Not much in the mood for heavy and gloomy novels right now. Maybe it’s because it’s Spring or because Valentines Day (my favorite holiday) is coming up but I just want to feel good right now.

I did manage to go a little shopping. I replaced my MAC Blacktrack gel eyeliner since the one I had was about 2 years old. I also got a purple one because I can’t seem to find a good purple liner. I have a thing for gel liners. They’re easier to apply but I hate struggling to take them off. Can’t win them all. I’m a sucker for Essie polish these days (the one on the left I’m wearing now, I love teal!) and I’m also a sucker for Nicki Minaj lol.  I have a thing for OPI mini’s. I hardly ever finish a bottle of nail polish so it just makes sense for me to get mini’s, esp when it comes to OPI since they’re not really my go to polish brand.

Lately I’ve been trying to rebuild a lost friendship… but it’s not really going too well. I don’t think he appreciates my “random questions game” too much. And it’s just… weird. Like, at one point of our lives we were BEST FRIENDS and there was nothing I could say to him that would make me feel awkward around him. We had that comfortable silence thing going on too and he was just, I don’t know, the greatest guy friend a person could ask for. And maybe dating him was a horrible idea but we were probably even closer after. And I don’t know, one day he just dropped me. Out of nowhere. I remember asking him a few years back what happened and he told me distance. But that didn’t really make sense considering I was always here and he was always there. So what gives?

So more years pass and I got the hint he just didn’t want to talk to me anymore so I left it alone and life moved in anyway. There were times within the last 6 years that I tried picking things back up again but each time it was always the same, I got the feeling he didn’t want to talk to me or he just blew me off. So I gave up. I didn’t talk to him for a whole year. No comments, no happy birthday, nothing. And I don’t know, I move back home and I just missed him. Sent him a message and got no reply. Attempted to talk to him on AIM the last few days and I don’t know, he says it’s been a long time and it has been. A very long time. But I don’t know, it just seems like he doesn’t really care. So why should I spend my time trying to rebuild a friendship that the other person doesn’t really care about anymore?

I get that friendships need effort to work, but it shouldn’t take this much effort just to get him to talk to me. I just needed to get that out. He doesn’t owe me his friendship and I’m not expecting him to just drop back into being my best friend or anything. I don’t really know what I’m expecting. Something and nothing at the same time. I just had to get that off my chest.

I’m lucky to have the husband I have. He knows how much this whole thing bothers me and even though I think he thinks he should be iffy about it, he’s not. He talks to me about it and he listens.

People change, but memories don’t.

Sometimes I wish they did.

We checked out the new Walgreens and it’s huuuuge. It also has the new Walgreens layout which is amazing when it came to the beauty section. Everything was so much easier to find! They had a soft opening but man, I’m impressed! I just wish they had more Wet N’ Wild products. Maybe when they have their grand opening they will. Either way, I found the Wet N’ Wild nail polishes I’ve been trying to track down for a week now. They had every color there (which was a bit hard to resist), I ended up only getting the 3 I really wanted. I’ll be back next week to see if the holiday sets will be in. Husband and I also grabbed some boxed movie candy, 3 for $3, why not. I got my Tootsie Pop drops and had him pick some out since that’s all I really wanted. Wish they made Cherryheads in the big boxes!

After that husband and I headed to get some lunch. He got Chipotle (of course) and I got Panera Bread. Then we walked over to GameStop and I reserved Mario 3D for him (to get the raccoon Mario key chain of course!) then over to B&N. I didn’t get anything. Books are so over priced everywhere else compared to Amazon. We’re in a recession! Wait, are we still in a recession? Either way…

Went to check out Bath & Body Works. I’ve come to the conclusion that the 3 wick and the mini candles smell the strongest. I don’t get much out of the single wick small size. I’m not sure why that is. My mom only buys the 3 wicks, I guess this is why. I was hoping to bump into a 2 for $20 sale but they said the next time that is is going to be black friday :(. I really wanna try the new Sleep scents. I still miss my Milk & Honey from years ago. Went over to the Disney Store and ended up getting 3 Villains 2 Vinylmations lol. We got 1 double of a character don’t like, boo! But that’s the chance you’re taking with blind box Vinylmations! Also went to get matched for a concealer color at MAC, they didn’t have sample cups, boo!

After that we headed home and went to Target. I was set on getting Disney Universe today and Best Buy had special content for Peter Pan that I really wanted but husband wanted Target since it came with Cinderella + 2 more. Ughh. So we got it at Target (and now I’m Peter Pan-less) and I got some more knee high socks (it is FREEZING lately) and those Magnium Ice Cream bars everyone’s talking about.

I’ve been achy lately, I guess because it’s been so cold lately. It was literally FREEZiNG last night and I kept waking up. I was wrapped up in my blanket and everything. I really need to find my winter clothes! Why did I have to bring them to Florida?!

I’m having a bit of anxiety tonight, I’m not sure why. I think it’s because husband mentioned Flix Blix and unless you play FFXI I’m sure you won’t know what that is. But I named one of my hamsters Flix Blix a long time ago and he was the best little pet I ever had in my life. Seriously, he had an amazing personality, and he was my best friend. He lived a really long time and he died. And I still can’t watch videos of him without busting out in tears. Anyway, Flix Blix in FFXI is a rank mission and I’ve been avoiding this mission for years because I just can’t, you know?

And I think it’s because I set my appointment for my cavities. It’s coming up a bit soon and I’m terrified (I have a slight phobia of needles in my mouth). I’m trying to talk myself into thinkin it’ll be fine. I get much more intense and painful pain from landing in a flight (and for MUCH MUCH longer). One itty bitty shot in my gums isn’t going to be that bad. It’s not going to be even a fraction of the pain I get from landing in a plane. So I’ll be fine, right? It’s keeping me calm to an extent, but I don’t know, I’m still getting a bit of anxiety :(.

Then we went to Kohls and I grabbed a really nice pea coat that was on sale for $38, two long sleeves that I swear by (yay they brought them back), a pretty fuzzy sweater and I got husband a long sleeve. All for $66! Whoot! My limit was $60.

Then headed to Target and they didn’t have One Tree Hill or Gossip Girl on sale this year *super sad face*. Didn’t grab anything.

Went to the mall in search for Lotso bear (from Toy Story 3) for my Secret Santa and they didn’t have him, boo! Went to Aerie and I got a body spray (Apricot and Sugar Cane, I LOVE this scent!) and body lotion and I got another body lotion (Apple Cucumber or something) and gloves (every year I buy gloves with the cap).

Headed to a mall on the other side of Northern California lol in search for Lotso and they didn’t have him either. Boo. Walked out of that mall empty handed, well besides the coffee drink.

Went to Best Buy and ran into my dad who was looking at camera’s and he settled for a Nikon because of the grip. I was trying to talk him into a Canon since I don’t know how to use Nikon, but… whateverr. He got me my memory cards (whoo) and I found Lotso bear!! He was in a plushie set with the peas in a pod and Dolly. Of all the places I searched, he was at Best Buy. Wth? I think he was suppose to be a gift with DVD purchase though, whoops. Didn’t know.

Mom got a new laptop that I set up. It’s HP, I’m not a fan of HP but mannn, that laptop is cute! It’s sleek and black and the inside has criss cross designs. Whoo. Told her I was taking it with me when I move, she didn’t say no. I love my parents!

I also got some stuff from Amazon… Tin Man (the TV series), Wizard of Oz (Blu-Ray thinking it had a DVD too, but it doesn’t. Crap.), The Mockingbirds (book), Ne-Yo’s new CD Gemini and Boy Meets World season 3 :). Also got some stuff online from ELF (EyesLipsFace) since they had 50% Studio line whoo! Got some Christmas stuff for my sister in law too.

I sort of hate how Black Friday has 2 day sales… then there’s Cyber Monday. It makes me want to go back to Kohls and Target and get more things lol. I’m super freakin broke right now though, so I don’t think that’s do-able. I also got some surpises in the mail from publishers! I got Bumped which doesn’t come out til May 2011 and I got a surprise finish copy of When Stars Go Blue (which is funny cause I’ve requested titles from this publisher and didn’t get them but they send me a surprise book for review, weird). I love being a book blogger!

Today, it’s off to watch the fight at husband’s friends house. Not really looking forward to going… would rather stay home and clean the room (cause seriously, that’s what I need to do right now. And homework). But I do want an excuse to get Cheesecake Factory today lol.

So, what happened this week? Not much… I realized I haven’t been taking as many pictures as I use to… but then again, nothing worth taking pictures of has happened.

And I still need to post about my birthday, don’t I? Eep.

So class on Monday was the usual… we were on “team gabe” but he turned it into “team hazel” cause I kept getting all the answers right. “you’re getting everything right and you don’t talk!” I do too talk. Just, not that much!

I finally got around to cleaning the area in front of my TV (OMG I can see the FLOOR there now… and my Wii! Oh how long it’s been, I thought I had lost you forever Wii!) and I came across this. No journal of mine has ever been more private than this one. It was my high school notebook that I brought around with me everywhere. I was reading though it and it had days I was missing in my blogs, days I wondered what happened. Days I didn’t want to read about. Days of abuse, of confusion, of wanting to end it all. Conversations with people, with someone I miss. A conversation that made me miss that person even more and realizing he’s never coming back. That friendship, that bond, is gone. It’s depressing, but it’s also life.

And pages with Martin’s familiar hand writing. The majority of the time when I’d be writing in this back in high school, in class, I would be sitting in front of Martin in Journalism with my head phones on and he’d bug me. It’s like, as soon as I pulled out the journal, he’d start bugging me. Never failed! Which is funny because now that I’m married to him, every time I pull out a journal or a book, he does the same thing lol!

I remember him underlining the words but I don’t remember writing this, or why I wrote this. It’s just funny to see us as we were when we just met, when we were just friends and to look at us now. He was always the one I joked around with about killing myself. We were both those students who didn’t really care about anything. I think that’s why we ended up being friends. But he definitely made my days more tolerable at school…. even if he was trying to stab me with my own pens… or flinging staples into my soup… or stapling my orange… wait was that my orange? Or letting me draw rainbows and flowers on his arm and “hazel is so much cooler than me” and wear it around school lol.

Oh I also got a wicked gash on my index finger (on the bendy part too!) from moving books around. Who knew books could be lethal?!

I finally got to go to Target… ALONE. I haven’t gone anywhere alone since Martin came home. So yes, that was indeed refreshing. Oh how I missed that freedom! I went to Bed Bath and Beyond and Target.

I got this little guy from Bed Bath & Beyond! I love Sock Monkey! I have slippers of him that I’ve had for years. They’re my favorite slippers, ever! Now I have him in plushie! Yay!

Also finally got my hands on this!! Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me is one of my all time favorite movies! I hated Goldmember though. My Target finally got fixed up, they added the grocery which is HUGE but they didn’t have ELF (Eyes Lips Face) stuff there yet. Booo.

My damage. I got my birthday Sephora shipment too! So excited! I finally replaced my Lash Blast, I didn’t get what the big deal about this mascara was until yesterday. Got the new Revlon lipstick everyone’s been raving about, but the color I got Soft Nude doesn’t show up great on my skin tone. It’s hard for me to find a lipstick that works good with me. Got a new foundation, I can never tell if I matched myself right… annnnd… I finally got my Cake Beauty Lip Butter in Lemon Chiffon!!

I am the most excited about this!! I am a sucker for anything Lemon Chiffon. Or anything chiffon to be honest! I’ve been itching to pull out my culinary school notebook and make an almond chiffon cake… but in my house, that’s unlikely! Even though I went to culinary school, my dad still thinks my baking will burn the house down. No faith!

Anyway, this lip butter smells exactly like Lemon Chiffon. I may have to get a back up… or 5! Hehe :).

Found these at Target… they’re…. weird. Good, but weird. I also picked up some new Skittles that I didn’t take a picture of cause they’re in my car (oops). Those were… weird too. Would it be weird to do food reviews here? Hm, it’s my blog, I can what I want!

When I had planned on writing this blog (yesterday) I was going to say I started reading this book today. Well, now that I wrote it today instead of yesterday… I finished this book today.

It was a really really cute read. The ending made me feel both relieved but… what the hell at the same time. The story changed obviously but it wasn’t the ending I was expecting. And it’s crazy to think of the ending and the entire book all together. It was well written. And it kinda had that idea that Martin told me to write about but there’s no way I could consturct a book like that, especially if it had to do with my life because I wouldn’t know the outcome. I finished this book wanting to know more, what else happened? I love when a book does that but at the same time… it’s frustrating lol.

Review on this soon! I need to sort my feelings and thoughts towards it first lol.’

It feels like one of those days I’d be sleeping in my stuffy Journalism class. I guess listening to Linkin Park kinda helped that feeling :). Never thought I’d be married to Martin. Crazy. I’d always tell him “I’ll feel sorry for your future wife” when he’d tell me the most off the wall things… and you know… I do feel sorry for his wife LOL!

CONVO OF THE WEEK:
Me: I would totally try to drive through SF again to see Wicked. Even if I crashed, it would be totally worth it. See now THAT’S PASSION!
JD: Determination. WATCH WICKED OR DIE TRYING!
Me: YES. THAT is going on my profile!

Damn when was the last time I had a “convo of the…”?

Let’s see how far back I can remember…

So last week, we had to print out chapter’s since University of Phoenix doesn’t have hard copy text books, a lot of our “chapter reading” is online and needs to be printed out (unless you’re okay with reading it as a PDF file, I personally don’t really care). The good thing is that they allow you to print out as many pages as you need to at the campus, for free! I go to two colleges, so we had to find time between lunch and before class to run to UoP and print out our chapter reading. The campus is small, but it’s nice. And comfy.

I spotted these at Target!! They put out all the Easter candy and decor! I love Easter. It has the best candy! Hehe! These are my favorite Easter chocolates! They only come out during Easter too, which sucks! I went crazy. But husband didn’t let me buy any. He’s getting a little strict with me not eating candy lately…. hmph.

Most days consist of this, entire afternoons in Panera Bread before kickboxing class doing homework. Husband was turning in our learning team homework while I finished my lunch. Aww, isn’t he just the sweetest? And I know, could my stuff be any more girly? Pink laptop, MAC Hello Kitty carrying bag… lol.

I was craving granola! And I need to add more yogurt and fruit into my diet. I don’t eat enough. I love Panera Bread’s granola. It’s so so… so delicious!! I just hate how fast the yogurt warms up and it get’s all watery… :(.

Speaking of, I was looking for healthy snacks. I know I need to eat a little more healthier and I tend to skip breakfast a lot, so I was looking for some nuts and trail mix snack packs to snack on in my room. I’m lazy and I hate making food, plus, snacking on nuts is good for you. So I found these!

The Cocoa Roast Almonds are okay… they don’t taste much like dark chocolate (lol, I don’t know what I was expecting but it’s just funny to think about… was I expecting dark chocolate covered almonds?! Haha) but it is better than eating plain almonds. Plus they’re 100 calorie packs!

The Tropical Blend trail mix is pretty good. It comes with banana’s, mangoes and pineapples. The mangoes were making my stomach hurt after awhile, but everything else was really good. Weird, considering I’m Filipino and dried mango is one of my favorites snacks… unless they’re “dried” differently?

A few new purchases over the last month or so… oh how I miss splurging! But that’s what got me into all this debt trouble in the first place…. splurging. Makeup and books, what a combo right?! I finished To Serve My Country a few days ago and now I’m reading Loose Girl. I may do a review on here for it, or just go to my book blog here and look out for a review (I did one but I’m gonna re-do it because I wasn’t really happy with it. I’m horrible at reviewing things, but practice makes perfect right?)!

I spent the majority of the week taking care of Martin cause he was sick with the flu. He was sick for about 6 days, which is odd since he’s never sick. And if he is, at most, its for only one day. So the majority of the week when we weren’t at school was spent making and eating Chicken Noodle Soup, fleece blankets, DayQuils and lots of movies. It’s hard to take care of him since we don’t live together and he has to go home at the end of the night :(.

I was craving this one night so I made it. It’s my childhood favorite snack. It’s just bananas, brown sugar and lemon. I use to put Sprite instead of lemons when I was younger, I don’t know when I started putting lemon… but I think it taste better this way. Yum! I have really weird favorite snacks don’t I? Lettuce & Mayo, this and I make “turkey rolls”. Which is basically turkey with mayo on it and lettuce and I roll it up. Oh and cheese! I hate waiting for food to be made lol.

We got to watch Alice in Wonderland 3D on Sunday! I love how Martin is always so willing to watch movies with me that he knows I’m obsessed with. He really wanted to watch Alice cause he knows how much I love Alice (kinda like how he really wanted to watch Time Travelers Wife cause I was reading the book at the time. Or how he really wanted to watch The Lightning Thief cause he knows I love Mythology and I bought that book but lost it before I could start reading it… we still have to watch that movie too). I loved the movie! I loved how Cheshire and Hatter had much more larger parts in this movie. I love the action. I love the story line. It was amazing! I really want to see it again!

I don’t see how people don’t like this movie. The only thing I can think of is that they’re stuck on the Disney version. Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland is based on the second book of the Alice series: Through The Looking Glass. And on top of that, Disney does not own Alice in Wonderland. Alice in Wonderland was written by someone else. I don’t think a lot of people know that. A lot of the Disney cartoons are actually not owned by Disney. Trust me, I was heartbroken to find this out myself a few years ago!

Meet my Robo Dwarf Hamster… Boq (yes as in, from the Wicked book/musical). Get it? Munchkin? Dwarf hamster? Haha! He’s very sketchy and he’s not use to us touching him just yet even though I got him in November when Martin was away at Basic Training. My mom surprised me with him :). I love his furry little hands!

And according to this picture, he needs his nails cut. Oh my lol.

So I found out yesterday that one of the layouts I had for my blog prevented tags from being attached to entries. Which sucks because I have a bunch of tags that aren’t attached to any entries and a bunch of entries with no tags! So far, up to August has no tags. I’m scared to see how far it goes! So now I have to go fix that… ack!

It wasnt crazy packed like I thought it would be AND it started raining! But there were people dressed up as toy soldiers going around taking pictures with people and there were carolers! It was pretty awesome. They usually have snowmen figures at the bottom floor but there werent any this year :(

I picked up some stuff from Lush, mostly delicious smelling holiday stuff and I picked up a gift card from B&N. I was going to get some Strawberry Moose Munch too but I didnt realize those were seasonal and all that was out was the usual plain flavors and Dark Chocolate Peppermint. Darn. I say strawberry should be year round!! Its the best one!

I also ran into Cora there! How unexpected. My first YouTube makeup guru meet!

Curious to know what I got from Lush? Check my beauty blog here!

]]> http://thisgirlispoison.net/2009/12/christmas-is-coming-too-fast/feed/ 0 http://thisgirlispoison.net/2009/12/migraines-and-forgetting/ http://thisgirlispoison.net/2009/12/migraines-and-forgetting/#comments Tue, 22 Dec 2009 09:57:32 +0000 zel http://thisgirlispoison.net/?p=508 I had a slight hunger headache yesterday and the thing I hate the most about hunger headaches is that even after you finally eat, you scarf everything down making you sick from eating too fast and the headache doesnt fully go away. I know I should had taken some medicine but I thought the headache would just go away.

WRONG.

I had trouble sleeping around 7AM-ish because my slight hunger headache turned into a full blown migraine. By the time Martin called me for my wake up call I was grumpy, irritated and I felt like crap! I hate waking up with migraine’s because getting up from bed is usually really painful. Normally I would take an Excedrine and that would be that, but since it gives me really bad ulcers (like every single time I take them now) I cant take them, at all. And they’re the only thing I’m not immune to! Ugh.

I had a bunch of stuff to remember to do today, like add additional items to the packages I was sending out, respond to a few emails and run errands. I did the emails, I mailed my packages and Martin mailed out his paper work, I finally found a gift to get my dad that I think he’d like (plus it had the 2 games I wanted to get him without having to buy a DSi!) and I got my makeup ready to bring with me on the wedding trip.

BUT…

I forgot a few additional items to go in the packages I was mailing out. An entire main prize in fact. I’m bummed I forgot, I dont usually forget things like this… but I had a migraine and I usually get really forgetful and annoyed when I do. I slept on the way to the post office and lunch from how much my head hurt. I couldnt stomach my lunch and I constantly felt like throwing up. I know, I should probably get an MRI done soon but I’m scared! I KNOW! That makes no sense right? I never said I made sense! But I havent been getting them as frequently as I use to, so I’m thankful for that. And Martin forced me drink water for dinner and it helped it go away (I dont drink water ever. I hate the taste of water). I know I should probably drink more water, its been on my resolutions list for two years but it’s just so hard to drink water when you’re not use to it, you know?

For the most part, I feel accomplished. My migraine is now gone (thank goodness) and now I’m worried about getting things ready for the trip. I dont even know what I’m going to pack! I have no time to think, boo!

On a random note, have you ever read a book and you kinda wanted to stop reading mid-book or mid-series because it was just getting so good? I kinda feel that way now with the Sweep series lol!

And another random note… Fairy Godmother from LUSH smells delicious but its not the best scent to keep in your room, it gets insanely strong.

What a hot cast, right?! My fav’s are Finn and Kurt. I absolutely love this show! I gotta admit though, I feel like I’m cheating on Wicked with Glee. I promise I’m not! I’ve been into musical’s since I saw Wicked and it just opened up this new and exciting world. I’m thinking of taking theater next semester!

I didnt do much shopping for Black Friday this year. I just got a hoodie and a hat from AE, the next few Sweep books + The Perks of a Wallflower + Glee soundtrack from Amazon and some DVD’s from Target and Best Buy. Nothing big. I already got Martin’s Christmas gift a few days earlier and my digi cam last week so there wasnt anything else I wanted (besides you know… a Mac Book Pro and a dSLR, things I cant really afford right now lol).

I didnt get a phone call from Martin yesterday which kinda got me down, he always tells me to not wait for his phone calls but I cant help it! My modem also completely died yesterday. I called my ISP about it and they said my warranty ended in 2006. Gee, thanks for telling me now. So I headed back to Best Buy and I had to buy a new modem. I saw a guy in his Marine blue’s and I couldnt help but stare. I got kinda sad actually. I’m a sucker for blues and ABU’s. Sad I wont get to see Martin in his. Maybe one day, right?

I got a phone call from him today though. He asked what I was doing, I told him I was gonna go pee cause I got tired of waiting for his call and he was like “why are you waiting for my call?” cause you only call once! Loser! He sounded happier today. We had 20 minutes to talk which always feels like forever, in a good way. He’s being positive (finally) but I assume its because he’s been going to church and again he was trying to talk me into going to church. Hey man, maybe I happen to like my chemical imbalance! I’m just happy he sounded happier and he was telling me about all the people he made friends with and stuff.

I cant wait to see him. And I dont know what to wear! Haha. Which is odd, I’ve never really worried about what to wear when seeing him.

I should probably get some more cleaning done before I get too lazy. I hate how my room faces the sun, its actually really warm in here and the fan is on. But its really cold in the hallway. Grr.

I had set aside some money for an itouch but realized, I didnt really need one right now. I just bought myself a Nano last year (I dont know what I was thinking by buying an 8 GiG ipod though, I have 1 GiG left)! And besides, I really just wanted it for the apps. Haha, I’m not going to lie! I’ve been wanting a new digi cam for awhile now, not that there’s anything really wrong with mine. Its just a bit out dated and I know Martin doesnt have one. So I was planning awhile back (wayyy before he decided to enlist) to get a new camera and give him my old one. But he never let me. The camera I wanted went on sale recently (it dropped by like over $100) so I just had to get it. Besides, I think I’m worth it! Haha. So I went and got it today. The battery is still charging so I havent had a chance to play with it just yet. But, I’m pretty happy about that!

I was bummed that Barns & Nobles got rid of their Wizard of Oz/Wicked table! I was hoping to buy a Wicked shirt to wear when I see it next week (along with my green/black witch hat and my custom made “Wicked” necklace), but I went and it was all gone! Super bummed. I hope my necklace and hat will be fine (I need to find that hat). Also my Wizard of Oz comic still hasnt released even though it was suppose to on the 4th. Boo. Dont you hate when you drive kinda a long way to find something and… its not there anymore? Yeah, me too! Haha.

Went semi shopping for Marissa’s tux/dress. We went to a tux place and the tux’s didnt really fit her well so we went to the mall and tried looking for like women’s business suits, but… I dont know. I thought it looked alright! We ended up just getting her a dress lol! Did I mention she’s the best man? Yeah, we’re doing things a bit backwards. Also he’s walking down the isle, not me (he doesnt know this one yet but he will)! Hehe.

We went to go look for some last minute wedding decor stuff, and didnt find much. We did end up walking out of Kohls with a hoodie, socks, some snowflakes (decor) and perfume. Hey, they were having a sale! Haha. I couldnt find a clutch/wristlet that was just plain white. Kinda hard to believe!

We went to Bed Bath and Beyond, just because and I got to add more things to my registry! We got to have the scanner gun and run around the store scanning stuff. My registry is a bit, random… but we get 10% off if we purchase things from our registry (which might explain the shampoo and body wash, sorry guys! Haha) so why not! I’m sure our family is going to wonder what was she thinking… but its okay! Haha. That was super fun, we got to stay til after the store closed. I love Bed Bath and Beyond, they’re so… beyond haha. And they were really nice about us staying after.

It’s freezing cold, and I’m so excited that it is! I love the cold weather! Well I like it a lot better than hot. I just dont like the goosebumps or the chills.

I wanna go wrap myself in my fleece blanket and go to bed but I have some work to do! Darn. Gotta get all the paper work done by next week for the chapel. Its so crazy to think I’m really getting married, you know? Putting down the deposit for the chapel, getting fitted for my dress… its just so… surreal! I think its really fully hit me just yet. I dont think it’s going to until I’m putting the dress on right before the ceremony. I hope I dont freak out! Hahah!

I got my first phone call a few days ago (I know, I’ve been horrible at updating this blog). It wasnt long. Just long enough to tell me his address and ask me how I’m doing, then he had to go. I tried to buy time, but I didnt want him to get in trouble so I just let him go. Again, its Sunday, is it bad that I’m expecting a phone call? I hear they get to call on Sunday’s or something? I need to get my laundry cause my relatives will be here soon but what if he does call, then I’ll miss it. But what if when I do go, he does call. I cant take the phone with me, no pockets. My parents are gonna think I’m crazy for constantly carrying my phone around the house with me.

My furball’s got their shots today. Not sure what shots, one was rabies. Meez has been sleeping on the stairs all day. Jay is acting like nothing happened. As usual.

Somehow I ended up watching Jesse McCartney music videos on youtube and that somehow led to HSM3 and I found this song “Can I Have This Dance” by Zac and Vanessa and fell in LOVE. So I bought it on itunes and I’ve been listening to it all day. Oh man, I’ve been missing ouuuuut!

Speaking of, I went shopping the other day with Marissa. Did some damage, but not that much! Marissa was chasing me around MAC and glaring at me the whole time. I was excited to get a palette from the Holiday 09′ collection but none of them really called out to me, the packaging was super cute but the shadow’s themselves werent… that great. Only one called out to me and it was a green/brown palette. But I already have a lot of green/brown eye shadow and for $36 I decided to just pass on it (see I do have some sort of self control people)!

Decided to revamp my entire jewelry line. We’ll see how this goes, I hope it goes well. Thinking of messing with some memory wire and some cat eye beads (I love cat eye beads).

Oh! I’m holding a free gift special for purchases from my Mark store (from now until mid December, I havent picked a closing date yet) so pleaseeee check out my beauty blog here for details! I need to save up for my wedding!

I guess that’s about it. Gonna try to find a more seasonal layout for this thing. I’m so picky when it comes to layouts!
