    blood

    man, if there’s one thing I like about my new laptop, it’s that I opted for the card reader. I can take a pic with my old digital camera and then just stick the memory card in and there it is! yay! so much easier than it used to be… my point: I just tried this Mehron 3-D gel on…

    when my teacher was simon cowell

    I finally figured out who that guy reminds me of. I had this teacher who was uber-scary and tough and kinda mean sometimes. I finally realised today that he reminds me, not only with his personality, but also his looks and voice… he reminds of Simon Cowell! now I’m not ever going to be able to look at him without…

    paris day 2

    So after the long ass night, we finally got up and got dressed and headed for the Louvre. Today was a first day trying the Metro. Well, of course we screwed up and got out at the wrong place, and had to walk quite a ways to the Louvre. Luckily it was sunny and wasn’t too cold, so it wasn’t…

    Battle Padme = done

    Padme is finished! Well, mostly. I cut the rips on the back tonight, repainted the armbands, hemmed the sleeves and took up the boot covers. I painted the boot covers yesterday. I just wish I had better boots to wear underneath them, but I can’t afford to buy new boots right now when I have a pair that will do.…

    when i made a realization

    So I was trying to get my pants on, and they wouldn’t. I get them just to my knees and they wouldn’t go any further. I was all like, omg wtf! Then I realised, it helps to unbutton your pants before putting them on.

    when cath’s car needed a jump

    I love The Producers. Just in case I hadn’t mentioned it before. This morning I was sitting in the kitchen (dressed in my pajamas, my houserobe, AND my poncho. I was cold.) when my cell phone rang. It was Cath, asking where I was. I told her I was at home. She asked when I was going in to the…

    Paris day 1

    So, our flight left at 5:30. We had checked in online, which apparently threw everyone else in our group off. (we had been registered through a travel agency, and apparently if us three hadn’t checked in online the night before, they would have been able to check in the whole group at once there at the airport or something. I…

    when the lights were out

    This morning the power went out. I got up around 7:30 and was on the computer and watching TV when it went off (what was I doing up at 7:30 AM, you ask? Ever since I got back from Paris my sleep schedule has been way off. I keep going to bed really early and getting up really early. blegh!).…

    when kevin was watching for the orange truck

    I’m off to church today. just to see my grandparents really. Afterwards I’m going to go over to their house and show them my Paris pictures. Anyone who has WinXP or XP Pro, do you know how to get rid of icons in the system tray? Namely the ones for Wireless Connection. I can’t get them to go away! I…
