What up, Doc?

So, I've not been up to much lately...Just the normal, school, sleeping, eating, school, crocheting , school, writing, reading, school. I really hate the later.
And I got rid of my old craft table, and down seized to my great grandmothers  vanity. I draped my Christmas lights all over it, and its wonderful. At first I hated it there, but now I love it!

like my little poodle friend on the floor??      

My writing desk has been abandoned for the vanity :( i feel bad kinda..

 And, I've been painting my nails lately. Weird for me, but now I am hooked!

I

This blue is my particularly favorite color. Next time I'm going bubble gum pink!
Its fun being a girl <3

 I woke up to snow last week. Not even enough to cover the ground, but it made me so happy! The snow created a gorgeous lighting in the house all day. Good lighting is a must for me.

so, what have you been up to??

Tagged and Monkey Bread

I just realized its almost been a week since my last post! I guess I've been a bit lazy. In truth, I've been fighting laziness lately, this cold winter weather is getting to me.
ok. 6 things I loath to death.

Chickens.
Hiccups.
Switching from house shoes to boots.
nasty rotten food.
math.
Getting done with math, then getting hiccups right after while trying to put on boots to run nasty rotten food down to nasty gross chickens. :)

Something I love? Getting tagged, and monkey bread <3

 I love when my mom is bored, she makes yummy things!

So before I start with with this, I'm gonna add that I shall not tag anyone like my instructions said too, as I don't have alot of bloggers that I know who actually blog alot, and all the ones I do know, were already tagged by Sailor,who tagged me:) So my apologies, but if I tag them, they'll tag me,then I'll tag them again, then I'll have started that whole dumb John Connor must go back and save his mom for the thousandth time! <3

11 Questions, asked by Dream Sailor

1.What would you do if you knew you could not fail? Become the first lady Prez..why not?? Actually, no, thats dumb, I'd prolly just become a professional photographer in a week <3.
2. If you had an opportunity to go to Haiti with a charity organization, would you? first I'd pray about it, and if God gave me the go, then I'd go!
3. You're in a situation where you know doing the right thing will get you in trouble (with the law, your family, friends, your school, ect.) what do you do? The right thing. Of course, I'd stray as far away as possible from doing the right thing, the wrong way.
4. What do you want to change in the world? All the corrupt racism, we live in a society where absolutely no racism is accepted, yet those people who enforce that, are some of the more racist people ever! I wish that wasn't so.
5. Favorite species of owl? Um, I dunno, the cute little fuzzy ones?! <3
6. What would you rather eat, if you absolutely HAD to: a crayon or a camera card? Camera Card. Does swallowing count??
7. You see a see a ten dollar bill on the floor in a check-out lane, it may or may not belong to the person in front of you. What do you do? Ask if it does, if not, hold onto it for awhile and then give it to tithe!
8. Who do you like better, Darth Vader or Ken (Barbie's obnoxious boyfriend)? Ken. "You say 'I', then I'll say 'love' then you say 'you'! See, that time I said LOVE!"
9. You break something in a pottery store. Now what do you do? Pay for it,then take it home and blue it together with gorilla glue.
10. What would you do if you woke up and found yourself in the 'cat room' of an animal shelter? Meow.
11. What is your opinion of the sesame street character Elmo? Personally I think he is harmless, but unfortunately, all those wacko liberal jobs have taken him and are using him to brainwash the young generation of kiddies. Its pretty sick...And I think kids over age 6 should not be watching him! Same goes for blue's clues..actually..no human on earth should watch that guy..end of story.


I must say, this was fun! Thanks for tagging me Dream Sailor <3


Happy Monday ya'll.

The name game.

I'm not sure how many single, not married or pregnant, girls actually spend time thinking about the names they will name their future children, but I have. I've spent hours reading name books and filled pages with lists of names. So over time, I've accumulated a few that I'm pretty in love with..

Boy names (i'm best at picking these out)

Noah Prosper (this middle name is my favorite of all)
June Craig
Victor Randal (don't laugh)
Jack Moses
Robert Tat

They are all pretty old fashion, but I like that. Robert is by far my most classic name, but there is just something about the name Robbie or Rob that just gets me. And Tat was my great grandfathers nick name<3
I found the name Prosper from a book I read called The Thief Lord, I love the meaning of the word Prosper, and it makes the perfect middle name for Noah.
Victor is just another one that I love the sound of it, Jack, well who doesn't love that name? And pared with a biblical name like Moses its just irresistible (to me at least!)


Girl names.

Stella Grace (Grace is my big sister middle name, Stella was gotten from Great Expectations<3)
Nora Jem
Margo Elisabeth
Lucy Ahn

I'm not so good at picking out girl names. The name Jem comes from another childhood favorite book, Elisabeth is in honor of a few amazing people in my life, Ahn is my grandmothers middle name, and Lucy, its just dang cute. I need to find another name to pare with Lynn, in honor of my mom's middle name.

Names are such a thing for me, I love the sound of them. My favorite name of ALL time to say is Giovanni Ribisi! Thats an actors name, and I don't care for that, but seriously, said with the correct Italian accent, that name is just beyond loverly.

This is me and my cello, it hasn't got a name yet:(

What do you think he looks like? Yes, its a he..

a bright speck...

Always in the winter I feel deprived of beauty, the world in its way is still pretty, but its just harder to notice it, ya know? So a couple times a week I try and either create, or find something beautiful or inspiring. Material things do have a thing of creating a smile on your face.
So far this week I've found several things in the form of other blogs, items on etsy, or stuff from my own head.
I *really* love fashion, and admire those who's tastes are similar to mine. So anyway, my friend sent me this blog, and I've honestly drooled over almost everything about it.
Its just..wow..if your a girl, and you like clothes and vintagy things, I just know you will love this blog.
Plus the name is so catchy!

 A Beautiful Mess<<click it!!!

So I have to get something off my chest...
I know I could go on a rant about how I, as a christian shouldn't focus on the material things of this world. But I know where my heart is, and I'd be happy to leave all the beautiful things that have been created here in this world, to be called home to my Lord who's home I will abide in with Him, and it will be beyond anything I can imagine..
So what is the harm of loving the things of this world? Um, getting caught up and obbsessed. Doh.
But thankfully, even tho I love fashion, and pretty things, I'm not really obsessed or hooked to it, good thing. But I do believe there is no harm in surrounding yourself with pretty things.. Just don't get to caught up in it ;)
Ok. I feel better now! 
But seriously, that lady's blog is  *amazing*
Click it..now.. <3

Go, and be golden..

I receive bags of clothes from all kinds of people, unfortunately, most of the clothes are either to big, to old (like old lady clothes) or just plain wierd..but, every once in awhile I find a treasure, such as a cute hoodie or something. But the last time I got a bag of clothes I found gold PANTS.
Yes my dear reader, GOLD PANTS. So maybe your thinking, "so what?", but seriously, gold pants are the best. Specially if they are extra comfty...

i love dads old red truck <3

I got up there and posed in less than 10 sec.!

What I'm wearing: Gold vintage pants from who knows. Blue Shirt from Target. Cream Convers from, uh, Shoe store:) Gold Rose necklace from Avon<3

I rather love photo shoots..so I really had fun today ;)

I've got wat they call a ducky face..yay me...    

I love candy canes <3 and my brothers bike ;)

Jean jacket from ROXY   

objects in the mirror are closer than they appear..ror....

I took a few more but there's no need to put them up, you get the idea, gold pants, stunning blue shirt, new hair cut (oh, do you like it?) makes for a keen photo shoot<3

Circles Around The Sun

I just found out what Owl City's new album is called!!! YAY! I have to say I love the sound of Circles Around The Sun <3 Holy cats, I am beyond pysched.

For more info, 8>8>8>CLICK HERE<3 <3 <3

Ok, so yes, in case your wondering, I'm a HUGE fan of anything Owl City, not quite a fanatic, cos I've seen those before (when in reference to OC that is) and they are just beyond creepy.

I'm so psyched. I'm looking forward to seeing how much Adam Young has grown this time. Ocean Eyes was a wonderful CD, probably still my favorite, the songs are just gorgeous, but that one, compared to Bright And Beautiful, I could sense a big difference, not to mention less techno dance beats, but I could tell as a writer he had grown up alot. The whole album seemed..bigger, fuller. Complete.
Yet how is Ocean Eyes still my favorite? Perhaps I've just not grown into Bright and Beautiful yet. Ocean Eyes seems full of dreams and hopes, and I'm still in that stage.
I'm thrilled to think that perhaps MY KIDS will someday still be listening to OC, if he keeps putting music out and staying strong, I have no doubt. Lets see, his music thats been out is what, 4 years old? And Switchfoot, has been going for 17 years, and is still, so that gives OC another good strong 13 years. I think he can do it <3 This is me rambling.
Ok, its Sunday morning and I didn't go to church cos I've got Strep and was bummed that I'd have to keep my distance from everyone :( And I'm tired, so yeh, gonna veg on some Psych or something <3
Have a loverly Sunday everyone <3

ps
I just noticed how many hearts I used above. Hmm...must be cos I was talkin' bout OC <3

Have I ever mentioned...

That I'm an extreme nerd when it comes to collecting stuff?
I love collecting colorful tins,  odd porcelain plant holders in the shapes of animals (I'm hunting for a fox plant holder next, then a  rabbit, oh I want white rabbit books ends soo badly! But apparently they are hot on the market and pretty pricey!) rocks, bottles (I have count, around 40 old bottles) books and so much more its not even funny.
Yep, I'm the geek antique collector.
I love it.

THRIVE  <<<click here!<<<<

Ok, so blogger wont allow me to find this off of their direct youtube thingy :p. But anywho, today I don't have much time cos I've had tonsillitis for going on 3 weeks, and its time for a visit to the Dr.
But please listen to this song, its sooo good. Switchfoot's new album ViseVerse is *so* good. Its so good I wonder if they might just make it their last so they end on a good note. But that would be terrible sad for them to stop so I hope they don't, they've been going for 17 years strong and have come out with some incredible stuff. This album feels so mature and complete, its just amazing.
This song inparticular is called Thrive, and its talking about how we want to THRIVE in this world, not just be alive. Its almost a sad song, but the message is very uplifting.
I better git off here and go finish laying out my new quilt that I'm making for the art contest!  <3
Nonii

Ezra's Blog

Annnd, I found this amazing blog by a really pretty lady named Alisa Burke, I really found it like a year ago, but anywho, she is so kool.

Alisa's Blog

Enjoy and happy Tuesday!!

ps, tomorrow I'm getting my hair all chopped off again, *eek* I keep flip flopping on ideas but I think I'm going to go Wynona Rider on everyone <3

She is so gorgeous, looks like she has a farmers tan huh? lol

Loving is easy..

Loving my life is pretty easy, if I stay positive about things, doh.  I'm not much of the positive nature (tho some call me "go lucky") and its something I am greatly disappointed in myself. I do wish I was an optimistic person, I've got a feeling whoever I end up marring will be optimistic, at least, I need that to happen. I mean I'm not all gloom and doom, but it never hurts to have optimistic people(s) around you <3
I just spent time with on of my favorite families in the world. And they are all happy people whom I love being around. I know your probably thinking that this family has kids my age and that's why I love them..your wrong<3 The kids are much younger than me, but that never matters with me. But if I am ever in need of adult conversation me and their mum hit it off great!! I like that they like me. Sometimes when you've been burned by past experiences God provides the perfect people to love you. So I got to start off my new year being with my peeps.
They say that whatever you are doing when the new year hits is what you'll be doing alot in that year..I hope thats not true, because I was watching stupid (*stupid) horror movies and getting freaked out for no good reason..and I was tired. I dont wanna watch any more horror movies are be very tired all year! 

Now I must go and be alone, which I currently am, but I need my four walls of my bedroom to re-charge in. I've been around peeps since Thursday and I'm WIPED! I know I'm pathetic ;)

Blessed 2012 everyone <3
