have you ever been....


So I have heard about this place but have never been! And I am finally getting a chance to go this weekend and I can't wait! I just hope I don't spend my life savings :D

Halloween!

I am so excited for Halloween this year! Mainly because I have the best costume! I was looking through the Martha Stewart Magazine (gotta love that thing!) and fell in love with this dress...

She is called Swamp Creature Couture, but I think I am going to say I am poison ivy or "going green" haha a few people have said I look like Eve...but I seem to be missing my Adam :)! So I went to Ross and found a black dress and then me and my mom went to Dollar Tree and cleaned them out of fake leaves! I sat for hours hot gluing the leaves on to the dress (burning myself a few times) and voila I have a beautiful home made costume! Mallory is going to do my hair (she has a wig I am going to borrow) and my make-up! I am all set to party! Now we get let the festivities begin!

Great News!!


Guess what....I have been accepted into the Teacher Education Program!! Can you believe it?! I am so excited to start on my official degree! After this semester I will have my Associates degree (which is awesome news because that means I am done with generals!) and then I start the teaching program. If all goes as planned I should graduate in the spring of 2013! It seems far away and then not at that same time, but either way I am very excited to start classes that I will actually use in the future :D

Thanks for all the advice!

I loved all the comments on what to do with my hair! :) So I have decided I want to cut some bangs into my hair and thin the crap out of it!! I have the thickest hair known to man! Cynthia always jokes that I could chop it off and donate it to the wooden toy horse factory so they can use it for the horse's mane! I want to grow it out till it reaches a little past my shoulders, but I think I need a trim just to get rid of the dead ends. I am still undecided about coloring it...I really like the natural low lights and highlights that are already in my hair. I think I just need to keep curling it so that it doesn't drive me insane like it does when it is straight!

Hair cut?

I really need to do something with my hair. I know I said I wanted to grow it out...but right now it is driving me CRAZY! I love long hair...I just do not have the patience for it. I am thinking of coloring it that purple brown color...a pretty purple brown not like puke purple brown. And cutting a couple of inches off...maybe? Ugh still not sure. Any suggestions?

Here is what my hair has looked like in the past...


















haha wow I have had some great looks eh? And these are from the good days :) OK so I really like my hair longer...I just need something to help with the awkward stage it is in right now! Does anyone have advice on how to not chop it when it is driving you insane?!

My favorite movie!

Ok so I want you all to go out and rent or buy this movie as soon as you can!! It is so so good! I am in love with all the adventure, romance, comedy, action....it's just all around Great! Just when you think you have it all figured out it slams another surprise in your face! Of course it doesn't hurt to have Dastan to look at for two hours....


Oh my that man is F-I-N-E fine! Whew, talk about McDreamy and McSteamy combined!! He is one gorgeous male :)


Now I know you are probably thinking..wait I have heard of that name before..Dastan..hmm. You are probably thinking of the same Disney character I was; for their names are really similar. But don't confuse Dastan with another the other Disney character almost by the same name, Gaston, for they are completely different.


No Dastan is our hero in this story. He was raised on the streets of Persia as an orphan, fighting to stay alive. He jumps from the roof tops of the mud caked buildings, running away from the kings guards as he tries to save a boy being whipped by them and....wait. This story sounds strangely familiar....hmm. It sounds like another movie I have seen....oh wait...I know what it is...Aladdin! Yes! Dastan is Aladdin in modern day!



Gotta keep, one jump ahead of the breadline. One swing ahead of the sword. I steal only what I can't afford...That's everything!

Haha you will be singing this as he jumps around the rooftops :) I know Kristina and I did! Like I said before this is a movie worth watching!

Let's take one last look at perfection...
