About Me

I LOVE DANCE!!!! I dance for a studio and for the university team and it will without a doubt be part of my career along with graphic design. I am sooo friendly and such an awesome friend but i am terribly shy. I love watching movie but im also outgoing. I love love love ice cream! but that comes after dance. Im always trying new things with my hair (its always a different hair color) and sometimes it could be a drastic change but its okay, its all fun.

Just Another Day
More...

Hi again. I wasn't sure what I was going to blog about but I managed to get some things in my head. I'm just going to talk about my day and how it was definitely one of those good/bad days. I finally got things straightened out with my internship and I am actually not stressing out about all this which is weird.

But anyways, I was at school today and I all of a sudden came up with the idea that I want to cook dinner. My boyfriend always makes fun of me saying I don't cook and when I want to cook something together it always turns into him just cooking the meal. I'm not a really big fan of cooking because I don't have a real good food combination. I'm creative but not with food. So ya I decided to make a meal tonight I was going to surprise my parents but I thought that might not be good. Since I have never cooked, with my luck they would have dinner ready of something. So I made some Balsamic Chicken and Pasta. It was good. Also it was the first time in a long time that our whole family actually sat down together and ate dinner. Everyone loved it, but that doesn't mean I plan on cooking every night. My family is always complaining about how I'm never home and they never see me, so I thought a nice dinner would make up for it.

So we all finished eating and were sitting at the table laughing I tried mentioning that we should all go to the pet stores and just "look" at some puppies. Everyone knows that looking most likely turns into coming home with a new animal. Our dog had passed away, she was a great dog, she ended up getting hit by a car. Now were stuck with my sisters stupid cat. I am really not a cat person. My boyfriend and I have a cat and shes okay but cats don't like to cuddle as much as dogs do.

The whole looking at dogs didn't work so my brother as usual decides to pull out the nerf darts. I have no idea how many guns he has but it turns into this huge nerf fight and it get pretty wild. For his birthday he had received this huge gun from my boyfriend. It shoot like over 100 darts at one, like three darts a second. You would not believe the mess we had to clean up with that one. And I don't even think we even picked up all the darts. My sister hates when we start playing nerf because she always manages to get hit somewhere in the face. I have terrible aiming, and not to mention so does my brother. Of course he doesn't even look at what he is shooting at because he is to busy trying to get the next dart to put in his gun. This one day my sister was walking down the hall and she was trying to be all smart, dodging all of the darts and my brother randomly shot one and it hit her right in the eye. I hated to laugh but it was sooo funny.

So after darts I worked on some fun stuff I want to create some kind of fantasy fairy photo and after working for like an hour I'm no where near where I want the picture to look. My other photo montage is one of my favorites. This was actually a three piece montage. They were actually supposed to be three individual montages but I wanted something different so I made the three fit into one. I love doing things like this. There is still more I want to do with it, like adding more colors, making it more bright.

So out of this whole day I had received some bad news. I didn't get the internship with DuPuis. Really disappointing BUT I messaged a friend of Johns Mom. He is a web developer for MARTINA MCBRIDE! Now seriously if he could help me with an internship for next quarter I'm going to die! With happiness of course. So hopefully I get a good message back

Well this is all that has fill my day I am sure I going to have more tomorrow. Otherwise cheers!

My Pets
More...

So I decided that I was going to do a blog about my pets. I have some pets at home and I have a couple with my boyfriend. I listed them in order from my favorite to least favorite. It always seems like every animal I get, definitely has some personality to it.

So starting with my favorite, Marley, she is going to about a year old and she is a runt. She is so small and a big brat. John was working at Blue Island Rental when he came across her. At the time the doctors said she had to be about two to three months old. I remember sitting at home the one day and I received a picture message of this little kitten, from my boyfriend, while he was at work. I said aw cute whose cat is that. He responded and said ours. I didn't wanna believe him but he was serious he brought it home that day and we were hoping his mom would let us keep it. So was adorable and so cuddly the first couple days we had her. Then she started roaming the house and getting comfortable. Now she acts like she is the boss and she only wants attention when it is on her time. She has quiet the personality and very smart. She is quiet the cat.

Next is my Black Capped Conure, Tiny. I bought him from the pet store and that was his name at the store so I just left it the same. I bought him when he was 6 months old. And I remember going to the store, I am such a big fan of birds, I was looking and he was in his cage just wanting to get out and was letting me hold him and pet him. I knew he was the right bird for me! Such a beautiful bird. For a period of time he went through this bitting stage and I was so upset that he didn't like me. Now he is two years old, loves attention, only from certain people though. He gets along with me, my dad, and john. For some reason I noticed that he gets along better with men than women. Don't know why but ya my sister hates him because he tries to bite her. He can really bite hard. He has bitten me to the point where I cried. But I am a big baby. He loves being out of his cage and he is soooooo LOUD!. Sometimes I try to sleep in and he just starts screeching. I can rarely have him out of the cage because the cat, not Marley but Milo, wants to play with it. I never really taught him how to talk even though he can but only short words. He whistles at me. you know that one whistle to tell someone they are hot. Ha. He loves doing that when he wants attention and to be out of the cage. Well I'm gonna be stuck with him for about another 38 more years, since they leave up to 40 or more. We shall see how that goes.

Next, Lizzard1. We never gave him a name but this was our first animal together. I bought this for John as a christmas gift and he has had it for I wanna say three to four years. Nothing much we can do with it. He does like people and we can only keep him out of his cage for so long because he needs the heat. Also, Marley would love to play with him. He has gotten so big over the past couple years and there is really nothing more you could do with him.

And the other, Lizzard2. He is the most recent addition to the family. We bought him before we left for our florida trip over spring break. I am not exactly sure how old he is but getting the picture of him was really hard because he is really jumpy and doesn't like to held. Also, he is shedding so I Don't know, he probably just doesn't want to be touched. Both of these lizards are Leopard Geckos. We Don't know if it is a boy or a girl. All we know is that one of them cant be male because you cant put to males together or else they will fight. So when we put them together they got along and still do.

Lastly, Milo. She is technically my sisters cat but the whole family pitches in. We adopted her when she was 6 months old around September. So she is about over a year old. Now the problem we had was my sister want to get one of those little kittens which is what I wanted to but p.a.w.s told us we couldn't because we had a dog, who has never been around cats before so they didn't think having a kitten would be a good idea. Unfortunately my dog got hit by a car about four days after we brought home milo. She lived but her back legs were paralyzed and there was no other choice but to put her down. I Don't have any pictures of her up here but she would have been number 1. She was a black lab about eight or nine years old. Such a smart well trained dog who knew all sorts of tricks. so friendly and loved attention.

I love all of my animals and I miss my dog the most. I have tried so hard trying to get another dog because Milo doesn't even compare to our lab, Angel. Milo doesn't want the attention like Angel she would never cuddle with you the way Angel would. Overall I have a number of pets and one day I will get my Angel back. =]

So I really enjoyed my weekend, it was pretty busy. Friday I ate dinner with my family again and we had steaks so my family was so happy about that. The weather this weekend was just gorgeous. My boyfriend and I decided to go mini golfing. We used to go a lot because we really enjoyed. I enjoyed it more because I always beat him. But it just worked out that the weather was so nice and once again I beat him saturday at minigolf. Ill be nice and say it wasn't by much but I was always one or two ahead of him.

I had to work this weekend. I had to close saturday night and sunday night. It stinks closing because sometimes you can make good money but saturday applebees doesn't close until midnight and sunday they don't close until eleven. I don't know what kind of restaurant stays open to eleven. Well at least Applebees shouldn't because the most we get is one or to tables. So since I was working this weekend I set a goal to make at least 100$ between the two nights. Just because I have a lot of things I am going to be buying just this month.

Well, saturday night was so slow and we had nine people on. By the time it was 730 pm and our dinner rush basically finished, my sales were only 199$, which is not good at all. So we cut two people, kind of got busier. It wasn't until we went to closers, which is just two people working the floor for about the last three hours until close, when we got busy. I was excited to but swamped when a party of 21 people come in. Luckily my co-worker really likes me and helped me with the table when she wasn't even on the clock. Just alone that night I made over 100$. So I was really relieved that I made my goal in the first night and whatever I made sunday night would be a bonus.

Sunday night, tonight was awesome. We were steady. It was busy but not crazy busy where your running through the restaurant. So I'm really wiped and my feet are killing me but i made another 100$ tonight! This seriously made my weekend. Even though I'm going to be spending this money this week on my boyfriends birthday day gift, I'm still so glad!

Johns gift! Man he is so hard to shop for. I have no idea what I want to give him. I want to really treat him to something nice because he paid for our whole florida trip but I really cant think of anything. So I have less than a week to figure something out with that. Otherwise I got a new phone!. I'm glad we did that because my phone was a piece of crap! My battery was fried and the reception was terrible. The phone was a refurbished one and it sucked. So yea I got a new phone and my younger sister has the same one. That's lame.

For stuff this week I'm looking forward to: Monday I start my kick boxing class with my friend from work. Also this week I'm going to Hubbard Street Dance Studio to by my class card and then I get to start dancing next week! I'm really excited for that. Some things I'm not looking forward is definitely midterms and I have to schedule a dentist apartment. I hate the dentist but when its over I love the feeling. Well more to come this week. Ga-night!!
