New Year Photos.....

The First picture taken in My new dorm. It looks sooo
Empty...8(

a day in the life of a dorm girl....

 So Hi everyone. I'm just checking in! I moved into my dorm room last night.  Paige and Biz are totally boss, and the R.A.'s cool too. I haven't really met anyone else yet. but it'll only be a matter of time until I meet them all. So Last night was full of new experiences!
  • Getting locked out of your dorm room is NOT fun!
  • Getting Physically home-sick...
  • Figuring out I was hungry too late and getting locked out of the dining hall
  • Having a head ache the size of texas...
  • Spending the whole night, updating my computer JUST so I could get on the internet...Goal was achieved around 4:15 this morning. From around 3 the following day. Wonderful isn't it??!
 Classes start tomorrow, and I'm already running into trouble there as well. Is there anything about college that is easy???? Other than getting raped, things being stolen, or failing???  Like I was trying to order my books and Not ONLY are they tres expensive, but one of them says something totally random about being a PDF file? So which one should I get? THe digital or the hardback? So of course being the resourceful woman that I am, I emailed the teacher. Who promptly sent me an email saying that they won't be back until the 21st which is grand and all but...WHO'S GOING TO BE TEACHING THE CLASS ON TUESDAY AND THURSDAY>????????? Sometime's I dont' think they think these things all the way thru. lol
  Jeez louise! Have you ever seen that commercial with T*mobile when theyre talking about what you want out of a cell phone plan? And the seamstress says one that doesn't charge me one of these, and one of these? an arm and a leg? Well that's my answer to the library's request to buy my books from them Bless Bastet, it's high way robbery! My book for sociology? $114.97, and yes they have the nerve to add tax to that nonsense! That's the most expensive book, but if I bought everything from the bookstore, I'd be in the hole like almost 400 dollars! DO you know what I could do with 400 dollars? Hail Hecate, I could get car insurance with that thing!
   So, turns out I already know two people that go to my college...Erin, from TMD, and C.J. from school. I've seen hide nor hair of Erin since I got here, but I only just found out that C.J. was going here! I am soo geeked,  we can rekindle our long lost friendship! I haven't seen him since MTH Graduation....Immed my Aunti, she is sooo coool! On Wednesday, she's bringing me a bin of ramen noodles and treats...I knew that my aunt was great, but this is freaking amazing of her... Do you have any idea as to the length of time its been since I've had ramen noodles? Just their name makes my mouth salivate!
   There's no heat to be found in my dorm room and if I wasn't wearing my totally functional and adorable hello kitty slippers, I'd be freezing my poor tootsie's off! I don't understand why, I can't seem to turn on the heat, but I was in Biz's room earlier and it didn't seem that it was as cold as mine, maybe there isn't enough stuff in my room, maybe they hold heat...I'm doing everything I can, I'm wearing clothes on top of clothes, I'm under the covers as I type, wearing a sweater...AND a jacket...Plus I'm wearing my hair down so it can create extra heat, where's the hair heat when I need it?? Who knows...
  Still hide nor hair of my roommate, I wonder if their going to move someone else in here with me or if they're going to move me instead...I hope not, I mean I'm totally unpacked, my parents took the other two Suitcases, and besides, despite the lack of excitement and HEAT, I'm quite partial to my dormitory. Finally got the dock for my player, so I don't have to worry about my headphones. This year is going to be boss and I cannot wait to add pictures, from my new school. Alright, I need to find something ''Productive"to do with my time, so I'm going to log off...

The need for speed...

January 3, 2010

 Everything is happening so fast now, and I don't know if I have the speed to keep up anymore. Holidays are finally over, which means work is slowing down. Which means less hours, which equals to less money. Less money means I'm going to have to work harder to pay for college. Speaking of which, I got all my college stuff except my ROOM ASSIGNMENT! I've only been waiting for it since I got accepted! Like almost 4 months ago.
  I have my schedule! I have class all week, but only on Friday do I have one 50 minute class! Meaning I practically have my Fridays Free! More time to work/study! I can't believe there are only 24 hours in a day...Who thought this was a good Idea? How am I supposed to get everything done??? But I am sooo excited! Of course, Financial aid doesn't cover everything which is why I have to be creative! I am freelancing my crochet talents...If you want a glove, hat, or scarf. I am your girl!
   Ever since I took Monday off, my whole week has been off...Like I'm living my life a day behind everyone else. It's really wierd. New Years, was awesome. Spent it with the fam...We were over auntie, drinking red grape bubbly. It was SO NASTY! I absolutely LOATHE sparkling wine. And I have a feeling I'm not going to like the real stuff either. It's just something about it that makes my stomach turn. So next year, instead of sparkling wine. It's going to be Sunkist Cherry limeade! Just as bubbly, not illegal and it tastes WAY BETTER!
  Classes start on the eleventh and I couldn't be more excited! I just wish I was more prepared. I don't have a thing packed, I don't know where I'll be staying, I don't know what my room number is, I don't even know when we move in! If orientation is on the 9th and classes start on the 11th, I'm assuming its going to be sunday, but I could be wrong. lol. We all know not everyone thinks logically.
   But DON"T WORRY! I have all week to figure it out. Ya wanna know why doncha??? Because I don't go back to work until THURSDAY! Yep that's right I'm only working 2 days this week! Pure craziness right??? But I almost forgot about christmas...I celebrated Yule this year, it was an interesting experience... and I got a netflix subscription for christmas, which is nice, but my laptop isn't working the way it should so, it's kind of useless at the moment.

wiccan hostess??

December 7, 2009

  So I finally began my wiccan studies...It's a lot like school. You have to stay with it! But I had to stop and go to work. As you may or may not know, I have been working two steady jobs. Castle of chicken and Artsickles.  I like them a lot but they don't leave room for a lot of anything else. But anyway, Brice, put me in the front, and I started on Cash registers! Can you say NOOOOO~
   Usually I work prep. Usually I'm in the back, workin and chillin' with friends, where I'm comfortable.

OMG! I'm baaack!

  Garsh Guys, its been so long, since I've signed in and actually written anything. It's so weird, when I wasn't allowed to have it I tried updating everyday and not that no one cares if I spill my guts on a blogger, I don't type at all. Don't you think it should be the other way around. Met someone today, it's a girl. Her name is Hiedi, she is a "raving fan". She's also into Anime! Her earrings were little rainbows, with otaku clouds on the bottom!
  When I asked her where she bought them, she said an anime convention, my patented hello kitty ears picked up and then I asked which one. SUGOICON! This is so awesome. I love it when I go outside my comfort zone, i.e. work, and meet someone with the same interests  as me. You know that used to call me weird in high school. figures...
  Speaking of work, I've been doing it non-stop for weeks now. The last 2, I haven't had a single day off and a couple days I've been working both Bkawk and Artsy! I am worn the **** out! I still cannot believe it is the day before Thanksgiving...Where does the time go??? But I can't complain, the checks are lookin' nice, and the people are awesome. And college isn't going to pay for itself.
   I've been very stressed lately, even my wiccy chanting hasn't been helping lately! I've picked up more books, Mostly RavenWolf, and Debbie, but you have to start with the well-known, before you can find the really good stuff, am I right? Speaking of which, I'm totally surprised, but i am simply addicted to the Queen of Babble series by Meg Cabot. I'm really hoping that lizzie ends up with Chaz at the end, I mean they were practically made for each other, and Luke needs to grow a pair, instead of borrowing Lizzies...Men are so aggravating sometimes...
    Speaking of men, my boy troubles have kind of gone away, now I'm just confused, which is a step in the right direction, because I used to want to throw all men overboard, and now I'm willing to compromise, it's got to count for something! Speaking of overboard, dad has finally fixed my window...Yes, the one, he threw the vestiges of my desk through. So hopefully tonight, it won't be soo cold.

I:Apple:Nerds...*Hello Kitty is Back, Beyotches*

October 28, 2009

Another fashion entry, I may be getting a little ahead of myself. Being the nosey rabbit that I am, I was surfing the net when I found these hello kitty boots.

Any Hello kitty fan make sure to thank CHOOKA! This company , makes these gorgeous boots, that you could totally tuck that new pair of legging jeans into . Tres' cute! Not only does she have boots coming out but she's got a whole new campaign. News Flash! Hello Kitty loves NERDS~!

I mean really? How freakin' adorable are these?! And on top of that...She ain't the only animated chick on the block, especially one getting a make over. Enter, the smurfs...remember the funny blue skinned creatures? Can anyone actually remember what the blonde one is called? bonus points if its not a feminine slur..lol.


It's soo cute! Check out loungefly for anything else licensed and cute!

An actual entry

October 15, 2009

I know it's been a really long time since I had an actual entry. A synopsis of exactly what happened on which day and I know that it's been missed. (At least, I've missed it.) And with people actually reading what I'm writing for a change. (It's really nice actually, but half of me wonders if I'm going to have to go federal*.) I really would hate that. If I did that, that would mean that you wouldn't be getting my actual word, and that's the whole fugly* truth of it. The whole point of having a blog is to express yourself.
Like my friend Julian told me not to long ago. I should watch what I write. I should...but I won't. When I write, it spills out of me, and I shouldn't have to siphon my rivers. They should be able to flow wherever my curves take them. (lol) If I want to express myself a certain way, then I will, and they can kiss my caramel ass. Ah, I love bitchiness in the morning.
Now, Like I was saying, before I was rudely interrupted by red tapers* all over the USA, a real entry has been sorely missed and I'm here to once again bring it back to the forefront! Tomorrow, is Friday. The end of the week! I used to love it. Of course that was when I was in school and not wasting away in a salmon-walled prison of my own design. Oh! To have a car, or a license and to be able to travel to wherever one pleased. It must be a wonderous feeling. I however wouldn't know.
But don't despair! I DO know how it feels to have overbearing parents that don't respect the fact that your eighteen and not twelve, and won't let you ride the bus...Ah parents, and their pastimes.... Today, my mother and I had yet another screaming match. Which ended like all the others do, us being hog-raven* mad at each other. I flit around the house doing the chores, she says I don't touch anymore, and she stays in her chair. She does that until of course she pops out of nowhere into the kitchen and pulls me into the longest bear hug I've ever had to endure.
Now I know for people who don't know me this seems like a very bitchy way to talk about my mother. But like I said, that's for people that don't know me. My mother and I have a very special way of speaking and conducting business with each other. We scream, we yell, and perhaps even throw things and an hour later, we're Shaggy and Scooby. That's how it is and that's how its always been.
However, this reconcilation was very different from the others. Drama is a must. But bear hugs? Crying? Telling me that I have to fix this? Whatever this is? Very different. Definitely something that needs to be investigated, this has never in the history of all our fights, circa '92, occured! What am I to do? A cancer/leo, throw in the towel?? NEVER! So, using my cunning intellect, I have to decided to do one thing and one thing only.
To do the one thing I can do. Do the chore and do it before they open there mouths. Ah, but there in lies the rub. You just don't seem to understand the speed in which they discover things! When I was younger, I flirted with the blog thing, but my parents disapproved and I did it on the DL. I'd have an entry, maybe two and then BAM! They'd be on me like bats outta hell! As I said, that was when I was younger, now I'm perfectly happy staying commited to my little blog. And I hope you are just as happy to commiting to read it.
I mean sure sometimes, I skip a day. And maybe, I could use a little more of those grammar rules and sure, sometimes, I use words that don't really exist in a college dictionary and I love using my profanity silkened* tongue, but you have to admit. (shrug) I'm adorable. And when someone is adorable, no matter how much it pains me to admit, they get what they want. But alas, I'm rambling. Back to the subject at hand, and also the fact that I have to wrap this up. 30 minutes until Vampire Diaries...Everyone say Ah!
Tomorrow, is Friday, and I'm holding a tres important study session with my boyfriend, yes, you remember the one. Teddy bear cute, glasses, graphic design major? (eyebrows waggle) Yes, well he seems to be a having a touch of ze layabouts*. So I'm going to help him! Yes, me. Little ol' me paired with a thick as hell Photoshop book, homemade cookies and lace...lots of lace. But I'm getting ahead of myself. That's for him to see, not you guys. Not yet anyway, you know he mentioned the darnedest thing last night. I should be a sixen* Yes, that's right, a make love to a pole, swing my clothes in the air, sixen*.
He's not the first person to tell me this of course, but he's the second to tell me, that I should look into it, around the same time of the year. tres creepy. Of course, I said no. I mean could you imagine. Little, innocent me, sliding down a pole? Why I never! (smirk) So I'm very excited about seeing him tomorrow. Then I was reading the newspaper, and alas, they have an art exhibit that YOU have to go see. Roaring Tigers and Leaping carp: Decoding the Symbolic language of Chinese Animal Paintings. From now until, January 3rd, can you say yipee?*
Well, I mean it is if you live in my little city. Plus, our art museum is free! Yes, you heard, FREE! So, that would be like the perfect date. Hint Hint, wink Wink, Nod Nod. You know, sometimes I wonder how much my beau really knows. Like the other day, he brought up the title of my newest tutorial in simple conversation. I've only mentioned my videopage once. And the fact that he checks in periodically, is adorable. My blog is connected to my page, I wonder if he's ever visited? Ai! 10 minutes! I better wrap this up.

Legend:
*Yipee:Yay, hooray!
*Sixen: a stripper.
*Ze layabouts: Being lazy.
*Silkened: moistened, dripping.
*Federal: censored.
*red-tapers: People who use red tape in the media, to censored results.
*Hog-raven:ticked off and beyond talking down.
*Fugly:Haven't you seen mean girls? Tramp.
Don't you just love my made up language? Be sure to look for more new wonders. Ah the wonders of not being under mind control..

Kisses,
Strawb3rri3
