Work work work :)

Hey everyone!
I know, long time no post :) but the good news is, I am now healthy and not coughing and my voice is fully back :) yayyyyy!
But anyways, :) I have started work as a Fashion Consultant at a store that just opened up at the mall, A'GACI :) it's a really cute junior girls' fashion store :) love it!
Don't worry though! I'm still finding time to write AND do my school work :) I'm a busy bee at heart :)
Although, that's not the only way I'm described. One of my favorite followers on twitter recently described me as "She's like an angel cake laced with the secretions of crazy toads... lovely, but a bit maaaaad, too"
Teehee :) I love that, and it's definately the best description I've ever gotten :)

Well, this week was pretty busy for me with school and taking care of the dogs at home :) This was the last week to work with wet clay in my ceramics class but, not to fear, I got all of my projects finished in time for the last Bisque firing. :) And I've been told by my glass teacher that I need to create a piece for a PTSA "Diversity is..."
So, I've decided that when all of my ceramic pieces are done and my glass project is done, I will post some pictures of them AND post chapter two of Antiserum Part II: The Rising !!

I hope all of you guys are having a great time and are readying for Halloween! I know I am!
:-F

Be Safe!

Homecoming week and a note from my No. 1 fan

Hey y'all

So, as I said, this week was homecoming week and we had some more spirit days :)

Monday was the Freshmen's spirit day, they dressed up for Berkley, so there was a lot of hippy outfits and Cal State shirts and jackets.

Tuesday was Santa Cruz for the Sophomores, so they dressed up for a fun day at the beach. (with plenty of Beach Balls)

Wednesday was San Francisco for the Juniors and there were more than enough Giants t-shirts to go around. Trust me :)

Thursday was DISNEYLAND for the Seniors :) everyone had their own different things for disneyland. I spent the day wearing some tigger ears and wearing an eeyore backpack (totally adorable) with my premium disneyland pass from 2005-2006. :) so much fun :)

Then Friday's theme was the class shirts. Now, I have never bought any of the school's class shirts, I've always worn a homemade one :) and my sister, Mary (J.B.) went all out this year on our shirts with an awesome design on the front and some even cooler wings on the back. :) Don't worry, I think I'm going to have a couple pictures to put up from my friends Tailgate Party that we had after school in the student parking lot :)

Anyways, Homecoming week was pretty fun and the Tailgate was even better :) but guess what tonight is....

THE HOMECOMING DANCE !!! :DDDD

SO EXCITED!!

I'm leaving for it in a couple of hours to meet up with some friends :)


On the other hand though, I just wanted to share a small piece of poetry that my #1 fan sent to me on LinkedIn. :) He's so sweet.


Somewhere there's someone who dreams of your smile,
and finds in your presence that life is worth while.
So when you are lonely, remember it's true
Somebody somewhere is thinking of you. :-) :-)


Some people are just so nice :) and it's because of awesome people like him that I'm able to be so happy all the time as well as keeping the energy to be bouncy :) Thank Youuuu!!!!


Anyways :), I hope all of you guys are having an awesome time this weekend as well as having an even more awesome time getting ready for HALLOWEEN!!!! I know I am. :)


Be safe!

Lady Macbeth :)

Here you go everyone :) this is a video of how I memorize a passage from Shakespeare's Macbeth. Being VERY dramatic seems to really help with the memorizing process. :)

Workin' Woman!

Hey y'all!
Guess what, I have been hired by A'GACI, it's a totally awesome junior fashion clothing store :)
I'm super excited to get my working schedule and everything else started.
I just have to get in the swing with school work, writing a book, and working. I'm sure I'll manage though. I needed to start somewhere on my college money savings :).
And, I've also got a small surprise for everyone. It's just going to take a little while before I could post it. It's a video that was taken of me practicing a passage from Shakespeare's Macbeth that my sister secretly recorded on my sister-in-laws iPod. Let's just say I was being really dramatic with my reciting. BUT HEY!
Good news, I did really well when I recited it in class :) so yayyy :)
Other than that, my week was pretty good, it went by pretty fast in my opinion :) Although, that wouldn't really surprise me because junior year went by really fast, so it would only make sense for my senior year to go by even faster :)
We already recieved our progress reports and I'm passing all of my classes with an A. And I'm hoping to keep it that way for the rest of the school year, which would be "A"mazing. Hahahahaha, sorry, I couldn't resist it.
Anyways, I'm definately going to tell you how awesome work is going to be when I start and I'll keep you updated with other things over twitter and LinkedIn.
Oh, but I can tell you that IT'S HOMECOMING WEEK and our spirit day to dress up is DISNEYLAND!!! haha, yes, I'm excited. And I'm going to find some sort of disneyness from my past that I could show off :) I love Disneyland. It's bonkers how much a miss it.
Any who, I'll keep you all updated.

Be Safe Y'all!

Windy Days and Sticky Hair

Hello Everyone!
How was your week? I hope they were well :)
Sadly, I wasn't able to go to the haunted bridge because of some difficulties that came up during the week... sadface.
But :) I am now a part of RABMAD which stands for Read A Book, Make a Difference. The website was made to allow readers to see which authors make donations to differents causes so that the reader knows that if they buy a book from one of the authors there then they would be contriuting to a good cause :)
Here's a link to my page on RABMAD.
Anywho :) My week at school was actually pretty good, and on top of that, guess what, next week is spirit week :)
Monday: Superhero's vs Villans Day
Tuesday: Mix & Match Day
Wednesday: Cowboy/Cowgirl Day
Thursday: Twin Day
Friday: 80's Workout Day
I'll take pictures of mine and my sister's outfits for which ever days we dress up :) Twin Day and Cowgirl day are a given :) teehee.

But, :) do you know what made my week absolutely fantastic??? I was talking to a friend of mine in my English IV class and was telling him about how my mom had taken me to get something to drink at the local Walgreens and how we ended up getting more than we originally went for including my super lollipop that we bought for about fifty cents on but just then I realized I had placed the super lollipop in my front purse pocket when I got home. So as I said that I also got a sucker, I quickly reached into my purse pocket and pulled it out which was quickly followed by a giggle and a happy dance :D it was so amazing. My friend laughed at my goofiness.
Unfortunately, it was pretty windy that day and due to the 'superness' of my super blowpop, I had to hold it while I talked and then the wind would blow and get my hair on my lollipop which would make my hair sticky. Oh... the things I go through for such an awesome lollipop. It took me near fourty minutes to get to the gum in the center but it was very much worth it :) teehee.

Well, I hope you all have a great weekend and week,
I'll be typing again soon.

Hot Pink, Ice Blue... and Haunted Bridges??

Haha, hey everyone!
How's it goin'? Everything is going peachy dandy over here in the bay area.
High school already seems to be going by way to fast, just three more weeks and progress reports are supposed to be coming out. Oh goodness, that's so fast to me. :)


Anyways, Antiserum Part II: The Rising is getting pretty close to being done :) yay!


As for the blog topic, I actually just painted my nails... and I have no idea why I chose the colors that I did. I painted them hot pink with ice blue tips. And, yes, they look ridiculous. Haha.


So, I've finished my second English essay, thank gawd. I may be a writer but essays are still fairly dull. And I already have two Government essays that need to get done. Luckily my teacher lowered the page expectation from fifteen pages to thirteen. Fun times :) Haha. At least I like that class. Hopefully Economics Class will be just as fun :)

Oh! and Guess what! A few of my friends and I are going on a ghost hunt! I don't really know why (I'm terrified) but lately we've all been wanting to have a good scare so, we found this place, that's basically in the middle of no where, where there is a bridge that's haunted by a witch. The story behind it is that this girl was accused of being a witch and was hung from this huge tree and buried under the bridge right next to it. And now it's said that if you go on the bridge and say that she doesn't exsist then some weird stuff will start happening. Ah! haha. You see, my friends and I actually drove out there on Friday but... by the time we got there it was pitch black out side and we all had the worst case of being a scaredy cat. It doesn't help that we spent the whole ride going down those back roads freaking ourselves out with 'it would be freaky if this happened' or the usual 'what if' talk. But I can say that because we didn't get out of the car, we all decided that we were going back this Friday and actually going on the bridge. Hahaha *nervous*.


There was something kinda weird/freaky that happened, though. We were driving back and (being that we knew how dark it was without headlights, here's a hint, pitch black) as we turned a corner off of the one lane road to the two lane, we saw this old woman walking super slow basically in the middle of the street. Now, I've seen quite a few scary movies where the old woman is always the one that's the freakiest. So, for a little while, we all disregarded her and just kept driving. But onces we got back into what we called 'civilization' where there were street lights. We all were wondering, why was that woman walking in the middle of the road when it was pitch black without a flash light, and then I pointed out... We didn't even pass her on the way towards the bridge... so where did she come from.


Haha, so that's just my supernatural fun time. I'll tell you how next Friday goes, and maybe I'll have a video as well. :)

Alrighty everyone, that's all that I really have for an update, but I'm sure I'll have some more soon :)
