Hiatus

 Hello readers,

   I know I have been posting sporadically for the last couple of months, but thats because with all the other things going on in my life, it really just isn't making room for VVS. I love it to death and I dont want to put it out completely, but not only are the other things taking up all my time, but theire taking up all my creative energy as well. So, since it wouldn't be fair to just leave Vulcan Sugar and Spice the way it is, I am putting it on an indefinite hiatus, for the moment. I know I'll be back, I just don't know when I'll be back.

Thanks for the understanding, and I hope to write again soon.]
If you can't get enough of my writing, you can hop over to Black Girl Nerdy for my Latest article.
or check out my twitter or Tumblr since those get updated on the go.


Thanks for all the great times guys!

Music Fridays (Baddest Female)

 Welcome gang!
  Welcome to Music Fridays. Since VSS is on a M-W-F schedule I decided that I needed something cool and easy to keep updated on Fridays, Because it the most busiest days of my work week. So Music Fridays popped in my head. New Music I have found, compiled with music videos and my personal opinion seemed like a good sell.

Lee Chaerin: CL: Baddest Female

When 2ne1 Came out in 2009 I was ecstatic! An all Girl Korean group that wasn't dripping in Sugar and didn't make my ears bleed, I had to get more. To date, I have every 2ne1 Song ever produced, and My favorite has always been CL. 

When the group first came out they were heavily compared to Big Bang. I think its because they share the same record label. So they're gonna have super similar styles, However, I personally believe that 2ne1 has surprised Big bang in many ways, and have really come into their own. Almost all of them have solo tracks, and I had been waiting sooooo long for CL to have her own Solo song! About a week ago, I got my wish. CL came out with Baddest Female. She's done collabs and covers, and those are alright, I'm particularly fond of her verse on the Leaders with Teddy and G-Dragon. 

 But the Baddest Female is strictly nothing but CL at her best. The music video is enjoyable, I particularly enjoy her "unnie" Dance, and have been trying to learn it for the past week. I love the beat, I love her rhymes and its freaking addicting. Fair warning, once you hear it you won't want to put it down, its been in constant rotation and driving my roomie crazy!

 Looking forward to next Friday when we talk about The Great Gatsby Soundtrack!

Any Music You guys can put down? Leave it in the comments or on Twitter!

Moving into the Batcave! ( Photo Heavy )

This Week I have finally moved into the new Batcave, with my roomie!! With all the excitement plus work I am totally worn out!! But my roomie is the best and has gotten my room organized to perfection, Except for my clothes that is, because I just have "TOOO MANY for her to manage."- She says. In celebration of the newest Life choice, I have decided to document it here on VSS!

Welcome to June

 OMG GANG! I can't believe its JUNE ALREADY! It totally just snuck up on me, the month and the scorching summer weather that it brings.

My room mate and I have been loosing weight because of how much we've been sweating!
  I still can't believe its June already! I just don't know where the months have gone, I guess that's what happens when you move out, and then decide to work two jobs and then Move apartments in the middle and live without internet for three months. Time tends to get away from you! so without further ado, here is my june Check list~

Makeup Haul: Ulta in Michigan

So my Girlfriend and I decided to go to Michigan this weekend for a comic book convention. We live in Ohio, so why not, Google said it would only take four hours. Of course, Google lied. Not only did it take all FREAKING DAY! But The Gas stations were so few and far between that I was constantly concerned we were going to run out of gas before we got there. So I finally found one and then we waited in line for forever only to realize that it was a member's only Gas station. A members Only, WHO THE FREAK DOES THAT?! Only Costco that's who.
  Down the street from our incredibly gorgeous hotel is a little shopping mall which wouldn't you know it includes an ULTA! Kairi,  who doesn't really understand makeup decided to come in with me, and she left with 5 new items, and a rewards card. Yep, I'm that good. So here are the things I bought while I was there, and since I've had a card since Layla took me a year and a half ago. So it took an entire 15 dollards off my total! SCORE!

Keep an eye on my twitter for more updates! Now that the new watchtower has INTERNET! By tuesday there will be a youtube haul video. SO make sure you subscribe so you don't miss anything!
Thanks for reading guys!

The Handheld Mistress: What I'm Playing: Final Fantasy Theatrhythm

Howdy Gang! I know it;s been a while since I've blogged, especially about games, but its because I haven't really done anything with my system since I bought it! But Never fear for I have found a new Game! Final Fantasy Theatrhythm, basically Guitar Hero with Sounds from EVERY FINAL FANTASY GAME EVER~! I bought it used, so someone else's saved game is on it, and I have made it my mission to get a better score then the person that owned it before hand.

Comic Nerd #1

 I don't know how many people know this, But I LOVE comic books. The last Blog contributing job I had I was Comics Contributor for GGC. GOD I MISS THAT MAGAZINE! Black Girl Nerds is a pretty cool job, but they already have someone covering comic books. So My passion for writing about it is kind of cramping someone else's style.
 *insert awkward personal item here* So I've started dating someone new, and they are into comic books as much as I am. In fact, we have a standing date, every Wednesday before work so we can pick up our respective new issues. So I thought I would start documenting my Comic book collection before it gets to vast for me to go back and comment on them all.

- Catwoman New 52: 1- 19
- X-men Reprint #1
- Robin Year one: 1-4
-Huntress 6 Shot: 1-5
- X- Men #1 Marvel Now
- Batgirl New 52 1-3 and The Annual #1
- Little Gotham #1
- Huntress Reprint #1

Stay Tuned, for another one next week!

Learn About Me: Movie Title Cards

  Unless you guys have not been paying attention, you know that I LOVE MOVIES!! My father, the king of deals, discovered that the Blockbuster in our neighborhood is closing down, and where there's a business closing there's a building full of deals. I didn't really get any movies because they didn't have any that interested me. But What I found fascinating, is that they had these cardboard cards with movie covers on them, and they had shelves and shelves of them. So, I plopped down in front of them and started looking for ones that interested me. I found quite a few, so here's the collection I've amassed, I know I'm weird, but that's one of the things you love about me. 

Do you guys collect things, that other people might find weird? Tell me about it on Twitter or down in the comments!

Upcoming D.I.Y.: Hi-lo Lace skirts

 Now we all know that I am not the best seamstress in the world but I try. And I feel that if I can make it myself then I should. Lately there has been a trend in fashion. These Hi Lo skirts with a lace overlay, I think they are absolutely adorable and absolutely WAY too expensive to buy outright, and since hancock was having a sale, I decided to pick up some fabrics that would be perfect for this project.

 I'm almost finished threading my new sewing machine!!! Once I get done, I'll get started on this project, The D.I.Y. Should be up the week after next, Don't forget to join me! Keep an eye out for more D.I.Y Projects soon guys, summer is around the corner and I am back in action!!!

Spokhette Goes Outside: Brunch and Shopping with Bridget. (Picture Heavy)

 So I was out and about the other day, after getting my car fixed. I am so excited that miss Miyagi is back where she belongs. I was so worried about her!!! I have only been driving by myself and legally for about two months, but to go back to not having it is incomprehensible to me. It gives me the ability to be free, and I wouldn't trade that feeling for anything in the world. Being independent really is something that everyone, should strive for.
  My old school friend Bridget and I decided to go to Brunch and catch up. Since I hadn't talked to or seen her in what seems like more than a year. I decided it was definitely time to give her a call. So we decided on Brotherton's which is a family owned restaurant, down the street from the high school we both attended. The Food was really really good! We both had their stuffed Hamburgers, Mine with provolone and her's with pepperjack. I had their homefries, they are to die for, a touch on the burnt side but good none the less.
  We talked about new friends we'd made, the jobs we work and what we wanted to do with the rest of our lives, ya know adult conversation, and then we gushed over how cute her baby boy Jax is, I mean He's ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!!!

 After lunch we continued across the street, to an antique mall that's been there for 20 years. 20 years in our neighborhood and We hadn't even gone in once. So We traipsed across the street to see what they had going on. I took pictures.

I really wanted to purchase the sewing machine, but the lady on duty couldn't tell me if it worked or not, and I was not about to spend 50 bucks on something that might not even work, I don't care how vintage it is. I really wanted those multi colored bottles, but they were too dirty to be of any real use to me. *le sigh* the issues with thrifting.

Thanks for reading!

P.S. I've got some outtings and events set up so hopefully, I'll be updating much more often.. I'm  actually really glad that I went out with Bridget, I was seriously considering putting VSS on hiatus, at least until I got the motivation to write again, it hopped the red eye just in case.
