It's sunny and not raining and fairly warm outside holy shit.
Been working more, I guess. Not thinking of what to write here since having Tumblr, as well.
Today at work, we finally got the new smoothie machine set up. I had to go in to train how to make smoothies/frappes. Getting a lot of them ordered at once is going to be a fucking bitch.
The mango smoothie is amazing holy shit.
I was there for two hours. Not because the training lasted that long, but because I had thought to come in my uniform and thus was asked to clock on and work for an hour or so. I was like :[ but I have to come back in at 5:30. Thus I picked up an extra hour today, which is nice.
Trying to get back into wedding planning. Certain people need to order their bridesmaid dresses. People should go in a be measured for tuxedos. Flowers need to be selected. Caterer needs to be talked to. Cake needs to be chosen. Photographer needs to be hired. I still need some addresses, but at least they're family addresses so they will be easy to get a hold of. Asking my dad to get them for me has proven fruitless, so I will have to ask for them myself =/

I have been doodling. That's where I've disappeared to. Also I forgot my password.
( Have a sketch. )
Anyway, I have created a tumblr where most of my sketches are going to be located, as well as my deviantART. I find it easier to upload to tumblr, though, so many menial sketches involving the world that these creatures reside in will be uploaded there. Visit my tumblr here.
I have been gathering addresses for our guest list. I feel like I have about half of them. What is missing is addresses from my own family that I'm going to have to track down, because I don't really want to have to call these relatives and ask them for their addresses; I should know them, or at least know where to find them. I intend to exhaust every other option of locating their addresses before I resort to asking for it.
And yes, our physical address book is fairly outdated by a few years.

Might I take this opportunity to say that an Argonian Dovahkiin is most appropriate.
Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin
Naal ok zin los vahriin
wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal!
Ahrk fin norok paal graan
fod nust hon zindro zaan
Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal!

Oct. 26th, 2011 12:29 pmSo now that the small patches of yellow that I have put on all the walls has dried completely, it looks very nice and I'm going to stay with this colour. I hope to get the paint soon and paint my walls so that my bedroom can stop being in such disarray. I've gotten used to it, though. I don't like that >_>
The notebook that was given to me by Lara is quickly becoming filled with pencil sketches, mostly with original characters not of the Turian variety. I think that's a good thing. I need to start sketching daily so that I can improve. Practice makes better, they say. I need to get better.
I get paid today! I need a better job, I swear.

Taro tea is good.
Oct. 22nd, 2011 01:53 pmI finally got to see Lara again after she came back from Taiwan :3 She brought me some things: some powdered tea, a notebook, strawberry biscuits, etc. I'm currently trying one of the teas, the taro tea. There's some little crunchy bits that I assume is coconut because it has coconut in it.
I've got to go pick up my medication before my mum has to leave, but I need a shower before I go anywhere, and my brother is in the shower. I might not be able to go pick it up today.
Still painting the walls. Put a bit of yellow on each wall to see how it would look. I haven't decided if it's a little too dark or too bright. I'll have to turn the light on. ................. It seems darker on some walls for some reason. If I opened the blinds maybe. .... No, it looks okay to me. But maybe that's because it's been on the walls for a few days and I've had time to look at it. We might have to sample a different colour.

Late night ramblings
Sep. 18th, 2011 01:07 amI haven't forgotten about our blog here, although Croix seems to have entirely. Possibly because I haven't said anything to him about it in a long time. A long time ago, though, this appeared to have turned into my own blog anyway...
I find myself somewhat tired but not able to sleep just yet, so I have decided to come here and post something. Our wedding date has changed to July 6, 2012 and is the final date, not to be changed again. Also, my wedding dress came in but I have to wait until Tuesday to go get it.
My sister moved out months ago, and I now have my own room. I am slowly repainting the walls from a depressing deep purple to a cheery light yellow. I will personalize my walls further after I have finished painting.
I am taking a term off from college, as I ran out of time to find an internship to finish my degree for fall term. I will try again in winter term.
Also! I am beginning work on a digital comic based on a Mass Effect original character. Quite boring, I know. Perhaps I should also resume headworlding. I haven't done anything headworld related in forever.
Still not feeling tired enough to go to bed, but this post has come to an end.

For something more interesting, try giving this song a listen:
It is music from Doctor Who, and never have I experienced such a pleasurable listening piece. It sends shivers up and down my spine and nearly drives me to tears. It gives me the best eargasms I have ever had. I don't believe I'll ever find anything else that causes me to seize up much like this does.
Speaking of Doctor Who, I have become very interested in this show. Several of my internet friends watch it, and after much pestering, I finally got around to watching it myself. I find it fantastic. I encourage you to watch it yourself.
My math final exam is this coming Wednesday. I am confident that I will pass the class, but I would like to keep a hold on my A grade. Hopefully I can do that.

Don't fuck with me, place that fucked me over (I'm not saying). I found a perfectly legal way around it. Too bad it costs money.
I started a trial gym membership the other day. I want to do a full membership. Croix wants to do it with me. We'll see what happens.

Jun. 30th, 2011 12:57 amI'm not going to pretend that anyone besides one person reads this blog. But I will direct this toward anyone that does read it.
I don't know if you know how it feels to work for years for something that you feel is your one calling in your life. Maybe you have. Maybe you don't know how it feels to have everything you've worked for ripped away from you with a single phone call.
But I do.
Years of energy put into classes, studying, researching. Being the best I could be. Gone in one phone call. The feeling is probably worse when you're almost finished with your degree. But I wouldn't know. Because this didn't happen to me earlier than that. Now, I'm wondering if this degree will be absolutely worthless and if I should even continue. If I should consider pursuing something different now.
The one thing that I wanted to spend the rest of my life doing wasn't even given a chance. It was ruined before it could have one.
This won't stop me. Won't bring me down. What this will do is make me stronger, and more of a hard-headed bitch.
I'll figure out what I need to do, and see if I can even fix it. That would be nice.
As Ivan Moody has said, "I'm fucking bulletproof."

It's different, not having to go to class today. Although I did still wake up around the same time I normally would have had to, which is good. I can't let it slip otherwise in less than a week I will suffer greatly.
I think I'm getting better with styling my hair. I'm getting more used to the curling iron. I'm still making mistakes, however, but that is how you learn. And it'll be different without any hair spray to hold it this time, as I don't have any of my own, and my mum took hers to Ohio with her. I always carry a hair tie with me just in case my hair drives me insane enough to not want to deal with it anymore.
I'm finding it extremely difficult not to write a short blog when it doesn't concern classes or exams. It's hard.
Oh, here's something. Today we'll be meeting with our event coordinator at our reception site, Charlotte. I believe we will be discussing decorations and the like.
Speaking of wedding planning, I should head to David's Bridal some time this week to look at bridesmaid dresses. Hopefully drag Rachel along with me.

I got tipped at work today! It was only a dollar, but it was still awesome.
Tomorrow I work for seven hours straight, and even though I'll have time to study for my exams after work tomorrow, I'm still studying now.
My final exam schedule for next week is as follows:
Monday ~ PS 203 at 1000-1150
Tuesday ~ study session
Wednesday ~ PS 202 at 1000-1150
CH 114 at 1200-1350
PSY 203 at 1400-1550
Thursday ~ CJA 243 at 1800-1950
Friday ~ nothing
After that, I get ten days of freedom before I have to start my summer courses.
This term has gone by so fast. I hate to see it go.

Happy June
Jun. 1st, 2011 08:46 amI figured I would write a post considering I have enough time to do so before I need to leave.
Next week is finals week. I still have a lot to do, mainly chapter reading. But I got my papers done. One is due today, the other due tomorrow.
So, it's June.
I don't really have a lot more to say.

My political science paper has been finished. A day or two ago. In another class, I was given an additional writing assignment, which I managed to take care of quite easily.
I had a psychology exam on Monday and I'm nervous about whether or not it's going to bring my overall grade down.
( And now, to bitch about this second paper. )
Something I can really use right now would probably be doodling. Yes...there's paper here............

On a lighter note, my grade in psychology is much higher than I had expected. It currently is a C- and I believe is a 72% if I remember correctly. That makes me feel better. Now let's see if I can raise the grade.
