Listening to: Daughters - John Mayer

Edit: Heyy Ok Sorry to edit twice, I would write again but I just wrote this yesterdays so yeah.. I am in NY right now our flight was fine.. I am going shopping and to the nutcracker tomorrow (yippy!) Hopefully I can get a new winter coat. So the reason why I am editing is to tell you that I will be revamping the site. All of the content and the site in general will be pretty messed up for the next three to four weeks. I will try to give you all a final date soon.. I just need to reorganize the content and do some validation. I also need to fix up the content and just yeah work on stuff.. A new layout is being worked on but the site will look pretty messed up for a while.. I will try to keep blogging.

Edit: I am editing this from the airport at 11:17 PM! Ok.. So I ran out of FTP accounts and I can’t host anybody else.. I am so sorry and I will see if I can upgrade me hosting or at least get more accounts or find an alternative. I can’t switch hosts (and I wouldn’t want to) because 1&1 would keep my domain but oh well I’ll just figure something out..

I also am sad to report that after today I will no longer be able to use illustrator *tear tear* I wish I could say my parents would get if for me but I would be lying.. I am in the middle of two vectors which will remain as a lingering reminder of the beautiful Adobe Illustrator *Cue funeral music please :P*

Wow I just heard and airplane pass overhead and by overhead I mean 50 feet from here haha. Well I g2g check my email before we board the plane and I have to turn my laptop off.. Oh crap we’re boarding already well scratch checking my email and once again fare well sweet adobe illustrator…

So at 11:55 PM tonight (xmas eve) I will be getting on an airplane, how cool is that?!! I am super excited to go to New York. I will be bring Fred and I will try to blog a few times but I wont have wifi so it may not be to many times.. Also I will try to take tons of pictures for you guys.. I will be coming home new years Eve.. (What’s with my parents and their tickets..)

Gah.. I still haven’t started packing and I still need to run by the store to get a new pair of headphones and some new books.

Life has been pretty dull lately (except for the whole NY thing.) I gave a presentation on HTML in class and I think 2 people out of 30 understood what I was talking about.

I am so proud of myself I can finally do the train step in tap. Go me! lol.. It’s not very hard once you get the hang of it but we have to go really fast in our dance.

I am reading The Luxe and Hero right now.. I am not all that into either even though I’m almost done with both. They just keep dragging on and on and on.. The Luxe isn’t very well written and it’s near identical to Gossip Girl it’s just set in NYC 1899 which adds a little interest but a lot of the time they talk like they’re from present day. Hero is ok but it just keeps dragging on and on. I would recommend it to a lot of people though..

A Sweet Far Thing comes out in 2 days (December 26) ohmigawd I am so excited.. I’m going to have to make my parents take me to barns and noble in NY lol..

While we are there (in NY) my shopping list looks something like this:

New wool coat (mine is waaay to small it’s not even funny :()
Two new pairs of jeans (One of my pairs is stained with paint and one is way to small)
One new skirt (I have no cute winter skirts..)
Two-Three new pairs of shoes (My shoe wardrobe is dwindling)
Two-Three new shirts
A new school bag (Mine is too small and hopefully I can find something nice and Century 21)
Some new make up (probebly some lipstick and lipgloss and eye shadow. Ooh and I’ve been wanting some liquid navy blue eyeliner of all things..)
One-Two new pairs of earings

I think that should keep my new outfits coming until March (I hope!) I know that seems like a lot but I haven’t gone shopping since forever ago lol..

Well TTFN I gotta go pack!

PS. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Listening to: Save Me - Jem

First things first, 18 DAYS UNTILL MY BDAY!!! YIPPY!!!!.. I already got most of my presnts (Juicy Coture purse, Juicy Coture charm braclet, BCBG sweater, Lancome eyeliner three types of mascera and eyeshadow..)

So I am working on a new layout. I know I know Ohmigawd Athena ya just put this one up! But breathe people breathe I won’t be done for a month or so.. This one should be a really good one (Maybe even some super cool javascript navigation?! *hint hint wink wink*)

Ok enough with the illiterate ramblings. I think all the shallow fluffy chick flick books I have been reading have began to wear off! (Gossip Girl, Private, The Clique)..

So I went to go see Cinderella (The Opera) it was really good but the fat lady started singing within the first 15 minutes and kept singing for around 2 hours.. So you can kill whomever says “It’s over when the fat lady sings”.

Seriously this blog has made absolutely not sense even to me.

On thursday I took the most amazing picture. I was finishing up shooting my fourth roll which was supposed to be portraits and I was over at a school playground taking shots of my friends Annalisa when I saw this group of boys sitting on top of the monkey bars and a girl sat on the steps that led up to the monkey bars. Every time she tried to climb up with them they would block her way. There was this one moment when she looked strait at the camera and I took the picture. I thought it would be a good shot even though it’s not really of one perticular person this roll is also supposed to have meaning. I cannot wait to see how it comes out. I haven’t taken any pictures of people before so this is a whole new thing to me. I also got in some great shots of Annalis that where super zoomed in and her face was the only thing in focus.

Well TTFN (ta ta for now) I’m off to go work on that layout and read Gossip Girl (Those books are so insainly addictive!!)
