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.

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. =]

Friends and Family
More...

So I just wanted to talk about my family and friends! First I will start off with my brother, Pete. Actually his full name is Peirre. He was named after my dad, its one of those keep the name going down throught the family. Well not just the first name but the last name to. Right now he is four years old. Huge difference in age between us. When he was born I was a sophmore in highschool so I was able to kind of see what it would be like if I had my own kid being a teenager. It was not fun. When he was first born I could never get any sleep! He is okay now we get along and we have our fights. He is at that age where whenever he wines he gets what he wants and I cant stand that.

Next is my sister, Tracy. She is 13 and starting her 8th year of school. There is kind of a big gap in age between me and for the most part we get along. When she was about three years yuonger me and her never had any of the same interest. We didnt get along at all because I wanted to see me friends and she wanted me to take her to the park. Or I would want to go shopping for cloths and she would want to go to Toy R Us. Now she  is getting better and likes shopping, starting to like boys, and likes hanging out with her friends more. Ive learned that I am a real big role model to her so I make sure I stay that way. She is a great sister to me.

Next is my cousin, sammy. She is two years younger than I am and me and her are seriously best friends! We have been together since day 1 for her. We have had our moments but what girls dont otherwise we are always best of friends. Her and I always hung out during the summer and went to the cottage together. During the summers we always go downtown and walk to the beach or navy pier. Now we both like doing something with our boyfriends together like a double date.

 Next is my best friend, Nancy. She is the sweetest person I seriously have ever met. She was one of the first people I talked to at my freshman orientation for Robert Morris. She did end up transfering before last summer to Moraine Valley. But we still hang out and keep in touch. My old friend that I was close with all the way from junior high decided she wanted my boyfriend more than my friendship but that didnt happen so now we arent talking anymore and niether is her and my boyfriend. So it is a little hard for me to become real close to someone. But nancy is so sweet and she has expierence the same thing so we both know how it feels.

Last my friends from Robert Morris, Amy Suzie and Andrea. I have been friends with Amy and Suzie since the beggining also. Andrea is new to our group but she fit in her first day in our class. I dont know where I would be in school without my girls they are the funniest people and we all know how to work together. I am at such a loss right now because Amy and Suzie went to Italy this quarter, so I have no art class and no friends. But they will be back soon!

So these are just a couple of my friends and family I have others but these are the owns that are the closest to me. other wise tonight I am going to this place with a couple girls from work, its a movie dinner place! We are seeing night at the museum 2 so I am hoping it is good!

This Weekend
100_0208 picture_002 picture_001 picture 100_0214 100_0213

So I was really excited about a few things this weekend. First monday I had my kick boxing class which I was surprised at how well it went. My arms were sore for two days because of how many push ups we did. I took this class with a friend from work at the park district. Also I talked to the park district about teaching a dance class and they are looking to start an adult dance class, which I am a little nervous for but I think it would be so much fun since it is what I really want to do.

I got my dance pictures in from recital. I have a lot more than what is up these are just my favorites. The show was at Governors State University and this was my last recital with Creative Dance Studio. I am moving on to another studio, Hubbard Street Dance. Which I did go there thursday to buy my card and I am going to be starting classes this week which I am so excited for. While we were there we were watching this advanced ballet class. I haven't been dancing for two weeks so I am really anxious to start again.

Friday was John's Birthday and I was really happy with the gift I bought him. My dad helped me pick out this nice tool set to help him with his carpentry. We didn't really do much for his birthday. We went out to eat at Bostons, which they had a nice choice of food but our waitress took forever to bring john his lemonade. He asked for a lemonade when we got our food and didn't get it until we finished eating so he wasn't happy about that. So after we ate we went to best buy and bought the sims 3. The sims 3 and Spore are the two computer games that me john always play together. I play on my laptop and he plays on his computer.

The new sims game is crazy and fun. There are so many more things you can customize and now you can add traits to your characters. There are all sorts of traits and it affect the sim in the game and how they interact with others and how they live there daily life. It has been pretty hard for me but a lot of fun. We spent like five our playing the game the first day. It gets so addicting.

I had to work saturday night but I was off by ten but tonight, Sunday, I have to work until close which is eleven. I am just hoping to make some money. I spent about 700 dollars just within these couple weeks. So now I have to work hard and make extra tips to make up for it. Lastly, last night I was playing halo with john, his friend, and his brother. Now I am not good at this game at all. Especially when your playing with people who are not pro but might as well be when it comes to me. So we played that for a long time and I was actually having fun with it. Usually I am always getting killed and losing I get tired of it. So that was my weekend/week and I have plenty to look forward to!
