My little shop

I'm excited! I finally have my Etsy shop up. :) At the moment, I'm only selling buttons, but I hope to add more things like keychains, jewlery and plushies. Please let me know what you think, tell your friends and shop!

Find it my shop here!

Hey, all. Really sorry about the boring updates as of late. They're just about my life and such. Fail, right? Anywho, I promise to have a recipie or how-to up in the next few weeks. I'm cleaning out my room and am finding a lot of stuff and clothing that I want to re-purpose so I'll show you what I end up making.

But yeah.. my room is an UTTER mess. Day 2 of my cleaning marathon will continue today but I'm not sure if I should do it before or after I bake cupcakes. Oh, also... Happy National Cupcake day! I was going to swing by Sprinkles today to pick up a red velvet cupcake for free, but I ran out of time. Wah. :(

I'm also thinking about taking photography back up. I haven't been taking as many pictures as I used to. Speaking of, check out this sexy little thang:

Isn't it the prettiest little thing you've ever seen? It's the new Canon S90. It's basically a sleek digital camera and a DSLR all in one. Have I mentioned that it can save pics as JPEGs or RAW files? Saweeeeeeeeeeet. This is so on my Christmas list, despite the $400 price tag.

Yeah, as Dalila would say, I'm trying to get my shit together. Cleaning my room, getting back into photography, etc is all apart of my MASTER PLAN! The Master Plan consists of,

1. Clean up, set up "home office" and work/crafty area
   
2. Make stuff to sell on Etsy and set up shop
3. ??????
4. PROFIT!

And if that is successful, I will rent booths at 2011 anime cons around town. Sounds great, right? I know.

Half-dead

It's final's week for me. I must say, it's kicking my ass. I'm so horribly sleep-deprived. I'm actually a lot more accident prone than normal and I can tell I'm not at 100%. It's a little scary, to be honest. Anyway, today I have to start (and finish) packing since I'm moving out of my dorm FOREVER. I really am very happy but I'm finding it hard to express any emotion. :/

Random thought, I think I don't sound like myself in these blogs. They're really rather different from my old blogs on MySpace. Am I growing up or just being weird?

Anyway, random thought over. This morning I had my French final. On the way up to the classroom I fell up the stone set of stairs. At least two people saw me and were in VERY close proximity to me. Did either of them offer help? NO! Did either of them ask if I was okay? NO! I'm fairly accident prone and I don't expect people to really care when I stub my finger or something but I visibly and audibly fell onto my hands and knees.

Speaking of accidents,  do you want to see the way the truck was left after the wreck? Of course you do, you're human, you love disasters.

Also, here's the other car we crashed into.

Barely any dents. They were able to drive away once the police had filed their report.

It really does feel like the crash was forever ago, even if I still have slight neck pain every now and then and my bruises are a little tender. I feel like it didn't happen to me... Like I was in a movie.

All accidents aside, I'm up to my ears in to-do lists. I love making lists. I have so much going on in my head, I often have trouble sleeping because I try to remember everything. Making lists is good for me, I think. I also haven't completed my Christmas shopping/crafting. I haven't the slightest clue what to make for one of my best friends. Ugh! She's even more busy than I am, so I haven't hung out with her all that much this year. One of the reasons why 2009 sucked... which is another blog soon to come.

I probably had more to say, but I think I should sign off now.

Later, cupcakes.

So sick

Currently it is 7 a.m. and I am through cramming for a final which starts in an hour. I know I haven't blogged very often but, as always, life gets in the way. I will take this moment to express how awfully sick I am of school... and myself, but that's a different matter. I'll try to save the self-loathing for another blog.

My "happy-bubble" has slowly deflated. While I'm still content, and still in love, I don't think I'm quite nearly as in love with life as I was a few weeks ago. Over Thanksgiving break, I was in a car wreck. Turns out that our truck's brakes are liable to fail at any given moment. It just so happened to occur while we were on the highway. No one was seriously injured. My father, the driver, suffered a burn to his wrist from the air bag. My mother has a few small bruises, yet it seems I got the "worst" of the injuries. One long bruise stretching from the top of my shoulder down to the beginning of my bust and another prominent one along my lower stomach along with a few others that didn't show up as much. My bruises are now fairly faint and aren't nearly as tender as they were a week ago. I still suffer from ocassional neck pain, but nothing severe. My parents are planning to take legal action against the car company since there was a recall for our vehicle, yet we were never informed. Might I mention we took the truck to the company's maintenece service area nearly every month and not one soul told us about our vehicle's defects? I might post pictures of the results of the accident later if I feel up to it.

So, since the accident I've realized just how amazing my friends and family are. Everyone has been so nice, supportive and concerned. A friend of the family has lent us a van for us to drive around since the truck is caved-in. My boyfriend's sister called me from Arizona to make sure my parents and I were okay. My great aunt helped us pay for a rental vehicle to get back home, since we were still out of town when the accident happened. My friend's sister who was taking care of Freddie willingly took care of him for another night, assuring me that he'd be fine. My boyfriend, who had his and my plans together ruined by the accident was very understanding of the situation, and even though I could tell he was at least a little dissapointed, he kept me calm. Thank you all so very much. I love all of you so very much. I don't think I could thank all of you enough.

Aside from all of that, I'm simply tired. Tired of everything. I could elaborate but I remember promising to save the self-loathing for another day. I will say this... I wish I was something fantastic. I wish I was at least thin, or thinner. I wish I was really good at something. I wish I was better at being in a classroom, but I think after 14 years I'm just so sick of it, and so sick of me. I believe it's time for me to be myself again, it's time for me to be happy. Life is so often wasted on the negative and I'm sick of that too. Also... I think I might switch to wordpress. Thoughts?
