hello again...

soooo, i already posted on here today but since then some crazy things have happened to me. so recently my printer has been jamming alot and has been making some crazy noises, i thought that it was just being stupid but it wasn't. today im printing off my powerpoint for one of my classes and it starts making that noise again. my roommate starts flipping out. so i opened the cover and what do i find....ohhh nothing other than bobby pins. of course because only the craziest things happen to me.

after this i go to my other classes and im coming back to my room. i had a ton of stuff in my hands so i took the elevator like the lazy bum i am. i press the 4th floor button and it opens and i leave the elevator. i get about half way down the hall and then i realize im on the wrong floor. it was great. i laughed for like 10 minutes. now im doing my research on tattoos for the csw project. im learning some pretty interesting stuff. im pretty pumped about it.

:)
Sooo, I survived the 8 hour car ride with my father to Tennessee. It was interesting to say the least. He decided that it would be a good idea to buy a gps before we left, which it was but...my sister also gave him directions. But we followed the gps or more affectionatly known as Benny. We ended up taking the scenic route, but it's cool.

Also, I recently decided that I needed to have a twitter. Why? I have absolutely no idea. I don't understand it. At all. I pretty much only go on there to follow Taylor Swift. I like to pretend she's my best friend. I'm really not a stalker, I promise. But my friend Kimmy did make this picture of me, her, and Taylor (our BFF) it's pretty fab as you can see.

I mean if you're a little jealous, it's understandable. haha justtt kidding :)

So Thanksgiving is next week and I'm pretty pumped about it. I'm going to Tennessee to see my sister, brother-in-law, and my adorable nephew. He's the cutest. But I think that my favorite part will be the 8 hour car ride with just my father. It's gonna be great.

But anyways, I have recently made a new life goal for myself (other than being Taylor Swift's bff). I have decided that me and my roommate are going to become youtube sensations. We made a video for our friend McLaine after her fish died and its mostly the best thing ever. I'm just saying.

I'm also really excited about the Celebration of Student Writing. My groups topic is tattoos and I think it's going to be really cool.

That's about it for now. I'll try to keep you all updated on my trip to Tennessee I'm sure that it will be an eventful holiday. They usually are.

model building :)

So, I pretty much completely forgot about this blog until right now. So I thought that I should update it considering I'm supposed to. So anyways, my classes are going alright thus far, even though the semester is almost over.

As I said in my last post I'm an Interior Design major and for Interior Design you have to build all these crazy models. So, I build this model and the name of the assignment is to 'Decoding the Abstract' (I have no idea what decoding means either.) So I'm building my model, thinking I'm awesome and then the tube the glue came gets punctured and I have get the glue out from the side. Then, the glue just decides to stop making the pieces stick together. My roommate, who is an Interior Design major too gives me her tacky glue and I think everythings awesome and finish the project. So, I'm getting ready for class and I pick up model, right no big I'm just going to class. Oh but wait, it then proceed to begin falling apart. 10 minutes before class. So I just glue it back together and put it on top of a locker in Roosevelt to wait for it to be graded.

A week later, I go to get it to turn it in and what do I see...Oh the plastic I used just melted. I really have no idea why the world hates me so much, but something like this would only ever happen to me. I'm pretty sure there was like a chemical reaction between my model glue and
the tacky glue. So I turned it in deformed and all. Then this past Wednesday I get my model back with my grade sheet, somehow I got an A- on a crazy, deformed model that I really, truly don't even know what the project was about. But, the best part is that on my grade sheet my professor wrote "Please Improve Craftmanship." To which I responded, " Really, I can't imagine why."
