Thursday Thursday Thursday

Okay so Boomer is roaming my room looking for anything he can get into and secretly hunting socks to eat. I don't know what it is that he likes about socks but I know that I wouldn't want to eat them! On another note Chris is coming home in two weeks! YAY!!!!!!!! I can't wait! Tonight is a chill night. Reading Jurassic Park and watching movies and chilling with my dog Boomer. It's a wonderful kind of night really. I like chill nights. Tomorrow evening I am heading off to the races with my dad and I am really excited for it! Going to have to bring home souvenirs for everyone and an extra special one for Chris. :-)

Blah

Well this weekend has been......tiring. Being sick hasn't help at all. I woke up today feeling like my head was going to explode because it was so clogged up and my nose was stuffed and I felt like my throat had been coated in sandpaper. Talking to Chris helped make me feel a lot better. After my headache started winding down I went to the Library in search of some books to read. I picked up a couple Jackie Collins novels and Jurassic Park and The Lost World. I loved the movies so I am hoping that book is even better and I am sure that it is!

There is a Jaws marathon on at the moment. I find it funny that I have never seen any of the movies. At least I don't remember having seen any of them before. We are winding down on Chris's countdown for him to come home. I really hope that someone clicks some good pictures of us in the airport because I want to post them. :-) Ugh well I think it's time for a nap and then some more reading.

Ta Da!

Today was by far one the laziest days I have had this summer, but I loved it! I slept in until 10am and then went about my usual routine. I fed the dogs and took them out, they laid by me as I read my book this afternoon. Still reading Stephen King's From A Buick 8. It is getting more intriguing by the word. I talked with Chris on yahoo messenger for a really long time today and it was wonderful. I don't get to talk to him that long everyday, so it's nice when we get that chance. I am super excited for him to come home. We are down to 35 days! I miss having him home. I am also very excited to start Fall quarter of school. I am going to have a tough workload this quarter though but I am ready for it. I am trying to maintain my 3.0 gpa and maybe even try and bring it up, although thats sometimes hard to do.

I went and got my eyebrows waxed today. They really needed it, haha. I also worked on Darlene's baby blanket some more. While cleaning the downstairs and talking to Chris I watched Gran Torino. Boy did I forget how kickass Clint Eastwood is. I wish I could meet him one day. My sister also sent me some funny pictures of the chickens tonight. They were all at the glass door on the porch looking in like "can we come in there please?"

I think Boomer and I are going to go for another run after I get off work tomorrow. I only have a short day at work and get out at 2:30pm. Yay! So far life has been great and I couldn't ask for anything more.

I Think That Went Well

Well Boomer and I went on our first run. We made it a whole mile! Woot! Considering we are both really out of shape I must say I feel like we did a good job. :-) Tomorrow we will just go on a nice long walk and I'll do some core training and ab work along with some flexibility work afterwards. I am thinking we will do one day running, then one day walking, and so on and so forth.

It felt good though to get out and get some exercise. Not only do I need to get more fit but Boomer needs to lose some weight to be a healthy dog. So it benefits us both. Frank and Gloria the discount goldfish have been very active lately. I just cleaned and treated their tank tonight. Oh! On an exciting note Chris and I have decided on a vacation spot. We are going to Atlantis! I am uber excited for it! We are going to swim with dolphins and sea lions! Hopefully do some snorkeling and diving as well. And while I am doing some pottery Chris is going to sneak in a game of golf or two. SO it works out really well. :-) I can't wait!

We are approaching to just four weeks until he comes home but not quite yet. Almost though! I get more and more excited every day. I can't wait to have him back home for a little while. And then once this deployment is done hopefully for good for a very very long time. Well it's time for me to finish up some laundry and get to bed so that I can get up at the crack of dawn and head into work. I have a busy busy day ahead of me at work tomorrow.

Slow Sunday

First Sunday I have had off in a LONG while. I must say it was very nice. I slept in until 9:30am. Attempted to get to the library to pay some overdue fines and re-check out a book. I guess the library changed their hours lol. I arrived two hours before they opened. All good though because the whole time I was talking to Chris.

The second time I attempted the library it was a success. Woot! Picked up some new books and I can't wait to nerd it up and read some of them. Hopefully I won't forget and return them late though. Discussed vacation plans with Chris all day today and I think we have chosen the perfect place. We looked at Atlantis and I think it's the one! Yay! I am very excited by this and I can't wait for Chris to get home. Vacation with him is going to be awesome. :-)

Tomorrow is another early early day. I work 8:30am to 3pm. Not really that early by most standards but I get there an hour or so earlier on this shift because I have a lot of things to get ready in the restaurant and quite frankly I am not the fastest at them, haha. Been working on a baby blanket for my friend. So far so good on that. Still searching for a transfer college. Won't have to transfer until next fall but I am trying to stay ahead of the game.

What A Day

Boy was today crazy. Work was PACKED and I mean it! It was a lot of fun though even with all the people there. I have been thinking more and more about my future and my career. I am going to continue on the education track but hopefully by the end of the year I will be picking up a minor in Marine Biology. I have simply fallen in love with aquatic animals. Particularly Beluga Whales and Orcas. I don't know what it is but I simply just feel like I HAVE to work with them. We all know that I am madly in love with penguins, but I don't want to work with birds.

I hope to get dive certified by the end of the year as well but we will see how that goes, haha. I have to have not only the time but the money. Starting August 23rd I will be tutoring a 5th grader after school and I am very excited about that! She is a really nice girl and loves sports so it's a very nice match. :-) I have also decided to start training for the Atlanta Erg Sprints at GA Tech in the spring of next year. I am going to start running in the mornings and sometimes with Boomer (my dog). We both need the exercise, haha.

Chris is still overseas and I miss him so much. He will be home in just over a month! I can't wait but I can honestly say that even though he is coming home for four weeks, I am not going to want to let him go back to finish out the rest of the deployment. I know I have to though. I talked to him today and he is doing good. What more can I ask for? Just as long as he stays safe and comes home, I am happy. As for the rest of my life today I am just taking the time to clean up my hazardous room. The greatest part of it, is that I am such a nerd I am watching Harry Potter AND crocheting a baby blanket for my friend who is due in January. But hey, It's getting done so it's a good thing lol.

Been reading The Scarpetta Factor by Patricia Cornwell and From A Buick 8 by Stephen King. So far I loving both of them. Well, best be getting back to my work and cleaning.

Aquarium

Well so far I am 7 hours in the 24 hour span I need to wait for my aquarium to stabilize before I can introduce the fish. Frank and Gloria the goldfish are going LOVE it. :-)

Puzzle Update


Got a little bit farther. Yay!!!!

Eva Build Day 30


Here are some pics.......Section 4 parts have just been puttied and are awaiting sanding!

Thursday, April 29, 2010





So while waiting in between coats of paint or when I need a break I have started a puzzle. Yes a puzzle, and the best part is it's a Twilight puzzle haha. Here is my progress so far. :-) As soon as the paint dries I'll put up some pics of the parts i have just done on the eva!

Eva Build Day 18

Model building will begin tomorrow!!

Monday, April 19, 2010

Eva Build Day 16

THE PAINT FINALLY CAME!!!!

Sunday, April 18, 2010

Eva Build Day 15

Stop looking for day 14......it doesn't exist I never wrote it. I decided to keep the actual number of days though which means it's day 15 and two weeks and one day has passed since I got my Eva. Painted and clear coat sealed some parts that I was able to complete without needing certain colors that have yet to appear because they have been touring the city of Atlanta. The paint should arrive tomorrow though and lets hope it does or I am calling customer service. Not to yell, but to be like "what's going on cause I don't understand". After working customer service I am not likely to yell at customer service ever again.

Not a whole lot happening over here. This weekend has been rough at work but the money has been good. I'll be putting pictures of the painted pieces up at some point so that this post isn't so boring with just text. On the bright side of things, my incredible boyfriend Chris (love him to death) got me a new laptop for school. GO MACBOOK!!!! School is good. Never knew college could be so much fun even when you only go one night a week. I actually have fun in my classes, go figure. lol. Chris's surprise is shipping out tomorrow so he should get it soon. Yay! The weather is great here in GA. Finally I can start tanning on my days off.

I have a tentative timeline for my "fun money" by the way fun money is all the money that doesn't go to some sort of savings, whether it's for the cruise savings fund, savings savings fund, etc. So I am thinking this for an order. I am going on this order based on "I really freaking need it first" to "I just want it"

1. tires......definitely need new tires
2. exhuast.......got to fill in the left side gaping hole of nothing in my bumper. I have single exhuast and I want duel
3. fill in my rib cage tattoo
4. new tattoo
5. cute clothes/bathing suit


so far that's all I have. I am sure painting my car will get done somewhere in that mix. Yes my car has a nice coat of paint. I just want to change it up a bit. haha.

Saturday, April 17, 2010

Paint Update

Well on the bright side I figured out what happened to my paint shipment. Apparently some mechanical error and that's why it traveled in a circle between two hubs. They say it will be here on Monday. My super special surprise for Chris though is scheduled to be delivered today. Woot!

GGGRRRRRRRR!!!!!!

So guess what guys? My paint was supposed to arrive today and when it doesn't come and I go and track it, guess what I find out. Apparently it arrived in Atlanta, went to Doraville, somehow went back to atlanta, and then made another trip to Doraville and never came to the house. So my question is why and who drove around all day with my paint, and I hope there is a good reason it never got dropped off.

Friday, April 16, 2010

Paint

Still waiting on the FedEx person......it's about 1:16pm here. I know that's not what the time stamp is going to say on here. I don't have any clue why it doesn't post the right time, ever. I have changed it to the right time zone, but whatever. No biggie. It posts the right date and that's all I care about. Hopefully FedEx will get here before I have to go to work tonight.

Eva Build Day 13

Still waiting on the paint to come.......any hour now.........

Thursday, April 15, 2010

Eva Build Day 12

THE PAINT IS ARRIVING TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!! Now I can actually get a move on with the Eva. **excitement**

Eva Build Day 11

Tracked my shipment of paint. It'll be arriving on Friday. WOO HOO!!!!!! But until then I am going to continue to sunbathe and work my butt off at work and do my homework for class on Tuesday. Now my only question for today is, "Is it bad that I timed my flipping over while sunbathing on the fact that I would stay on one side while reading a chapter of Harry Potter and then flip when the chapter was over to start tanning and reading the next chapter?" That is all for today. :-)

Tuesday, April 13, 2010

Eva Build Day 10

Got some of the internal pieces prepped, primed, and painted. Got an email saying my tamiya order should be here shortly. That'll be nice cause then I can lift the hold on the construction of the Eva and get this show on a roll!!

Monday, April 12, 2010

Eva Build Day 9

Picked up some more supplies at hobby town. Eva build on hold until the paint from tamiya arrives at my doorstep, and my new tube of model putty. So now it's nothing but a waiting game.

Eva Buld Day 8

Sorry to say I have nothing to report today guys. I woke up and ate lunch and then it was time to get ready for work, and now I am home from work. but on the bright side of things I am watching The Count Of Monte Cristo. Love that movie! When I awake in the morning I'll be headed back up to Hobby Town in Cumming GA to replenish some much needed supplies and devoting the day to the Eva. Much to do!

Saturday, April 10, 2010

Eva Build Day 7




As you can see I have gotten section 02 pieces sanded and primed today. We are moving right along! It would be helpful to have the light purple color right now but until it ends up on my doorstep those pieces are on hold from any kind of priming or paint. Knowing me I'd prime them and then somewhere down the line when the light purple came I would forget which primed pieces were supposed to be that color and we can't have that mess up happen. So I am playing on the safe side of things. Tomorrow Is painting these pieces there proper colors and working on sanding the pieces to section 03 so that they can be primed asap! Hopefully construction of section 01 will commence on this coming Saturday since I am estimating the light purple arriving sometime around Thursday or Friday. If not then it's just pushed back no problem.

Eva Build Day 6 Part 2


The painted pieces came out good! I am excited to see that the paint is coming out nicely! Primed a few more pieces tonight and I'll be on to priming pieces tomorrow morning after I role out of bed, haha. I don't know how much more I will accomplish this weekend since I am working the night shifts at work and with a concert in town tomorrow you best believe I will be at work until the wee hours of the morning due to the crowds, which means I'll be sleeping most of Sunday and probably not getting too much done on the model. I will keep painting pieces though, just no assembly. Can't afford to put pieces together wrong when I am not fully awake to do so. :-)

Friday, April 9, 2010

Eva Build Day 6 Part 1

Canceled my first paint order with Tamiya. Put in a new order today. Now all I am waiting on is blue violet and red. Going back to HobbyTown in Cumming, GA this coming Monday to stock back up on sand paper, cement, I need another can of finishing spray, and I think I will purchase some new brushes. It about time for those. Haven't had new ones in two years.

Thursday, April 8, 2010

Eva Build Day 5
















Well, I decided to take another trip up to Cumming, GA and see if maybe some more colors came in at HobbyTown. I was in luck, they had a few things I needed. I got my yellow, my gun metal, and my black, and I also picked up a new can of primer. Yay! This means I can cancel part of my order. Still need the orange and violet blue though, and I have feeling those will have to be waited on via mail. But it's okay and more than worth it to have the right colors. :-)




so let's see.......I primed the pieces from section 01 and then just about an hour ago the primer was set and dry and I coated them with their proper colors. **joy**

Wednesday, April 7, 2010

Eva Build Day 4

Ordered the second batch of colors I need for the model. Estimated delivery is 6 to 10 days. So I am waiting. Hopefully they come a lot faster than that. I'll keep you guys updated. :-)

Random Entry 2



This is a beautiful tree I have over my driveway. I love this tree.....but I also don't love this tree. It's really very beautiful, but it can get irksome. It's a love hate thing really. I love the beauty but not the fact that when the blooms start falling off even if my car just passes under it when it comes out my car is officially a decorated pink flower parade float. But I am glad to have such a pretty tree in my yard. and it is funny when I drive down the road and flowers are flying off of it everywhere, haha.

Eva Build Day 3 Results

So there you have it. Slow but good progress on the eva. Sorry if I sounded bossy or like a know it all in any of my posts. Not trying to. Like I said this is just how I do my models and it's my opinion. I don't know all when it comes to building them. I just know how I do and that's it. Checked online for the rest of the paint I need. All but the shade of orange I need is finally available so those will be ordered tomorrow and then it's an estimated 6 to 10 days wait with shipping. Worth the wait though. Gotta have the right colors, right? haha. Today went well I think. In the future there will be one maybe two posts through the days of the process of building this eva. Today had so many simply because it's how I thought to break up everything I was doing to make this model look good to my standards. Obviously I will be sanding pieces throughout the building process but no need to put that process up every time. Same goes for the gluing/cementing of parts. :-) Hope it wasn't too boring. It should get more interesting once the rest of my materials (paint) arrive and I can really get going on this thing. haha Woot! Can't wait!

Eva Build Day 3 Part 2 Subject: TAAAA DAAAA!!!!!!






Let's see......these would be my finished products of sanding. The top picture I included just to show that attention has to be brought to nubs that happen to lie on curved surfaces, especially if they are in curves that would affect an internal moving piece. Middle picture is just a show of how taking your time sanding can pay off with a much smoother nub free surface. And last but not least the last picture. Always a good idea to sand down nubs that are on the inside seams of parts that will be butted up against other parts when put together. Helps create a no gap seam when the two parts are joined. Probably didn't need to tell you guys that though haha. Now the parts are ready to go to the painting process. First step Priming second step color.

Eva Build Day 3 Part 2 Subject: Getting Work Done And Not Babbling About My Technique



Sooooo....the bottom picture would be me LIGHTLY scraping the rough part of the nub on a part down. I find that it saves sanding time if you lightly use your knife to get the bulk of the rough nub off. But you have to be careful because if you use a lot of pressure you are either going to get your finger when the knife gives way with a release of pressure or you are going to gouge out a nice dent in your plastic part and that's just a pain in the butt to fix. So I use light pressure to shave off a bit of the roughness of the nub left from the tray. The way I think about it is like shaving the piece as if you were shaving your leg or your face. Light pressure and let the blade do it's job. You would want to put a lot of pressure on the razor while shaving your leg or face because you are just gonna injure yourself. So light pressure and you won't injure the piece. :-)
The top picture would be the first sand paper out of the before mentioned 54321 series of sand papers I use to get a nice smooth nub free surface. I just take my time sanding and making sure that I am not over sanding and creating a weird spot on the piece. Can't be too careful with this model! I wanna make it PERFECT!!!!!! haha.

Eva Build Day 3 Part 2 Subject: Sanding

Here are the sand papers I use to sand down those little nubs after you cut the pieces out of the trays. These come in a package that Testors puts out. I am sure there are many others you can use but these have proven to get the job done for me every time so I have stuck with them. If anyone knows of some that they suggest do a better job please let me know I'd love to check them out. :-) i normally just line them up left to right in 54321 order. 5 being the coarsest and 1 being the finest. Just easier for me to not mess up the steps of sanding the pieces down. In the pictures here from top to bottom I have them in reverse order staring with the finest sand paper first.














Eva Build Day 3 Part 2 Subject: Tools



Ah here we go! Some of my trusted tools of the trade! As you can see above we have the exacto(however you spell it) knife. Yes that is a beer in the background, but please DO NOT drink while using ANY sharp object/tool. It only ends in injury and that's never a good thing. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T USE SHARP OBJECTS WHILE DRINKING! And below that picture is a pair of clippers. These are actually metal clippers for beading crafts but I think you can find them in a hardware store as well. I love them for cutting parts out of their trays because A) they cut well and B) they have a nice flat edge that lets you get close to the part and cut it out in one quick safe motion. It also saves on time because I know the other way I have seen it done was with an exacto knife and that can take a bit depending on the type of plastic you are trying to get through. Also the clippers are a cleaner break/cut. But this is just my opinion it is by no means the only way.

Eva Build Day 3 Part 2 Subject: Nubs


Okay so I thought I would address what everyone runs into. Not a huge deal really but you know those little nubs that you get after you get your pieces out of their trays? Well as I have said before I am by no means a master model builder and we all get rid of these things a little differently. As for me I love my my model knife and sand paper. Here are some pictures of the nubs I am talking about.








Random Entry 1

Had lunch with my best friend's mother today. For the life of me I can not remember the name of the place. I do remember however that they are open for breakfast and lunch only and they are located on HWY 9 in Roswell, GA just before you hit the light by the public library. Which would make it two lights before the intersection of HWY 9 and Canton/Atlanta Street. If you pass the firehouse you have gone to far. I repeat YOU WILL HAVE GONE TO FAR. For those of you that can find this place via my crazy locating skills then please please PLEASE try it out. The food was great! I only had a sandwich off of the lunch menu but my lunch guest has eaten there for breakfast and she says it's just as good. The service is excellent as well and they have both inside and outside seating with some cover so that the sun isn't directly on you. GO THERE! well....if you can find it.....I should really track down the name of the place. It would make it easier on you all.

Eva Build Day 3 Part 1




Well here it is! The Perfect Grade Eva Test Type 01. For those of you that are wondering, yes that is a fender behind the box. It is in fact the original right front fender that happens to have once belonged to a 2007 Vista Blue Ford Mustang. It also happens to be ruined. Apparently someone in a mini van doesn't know how to stay in there lane and crossed the line during heavy traffic and hit me. This was two years ago. I'm still pissed, but on the bright side it didn't total my car and now I have a cool crushed up fender for display in my room. :-) But back to the Eva. You'll come to find I jump from one random subject to the next and back again. Deal with it. So in about 3 1/2 to 4 hours I shall be diving in to the first few steps in this model. Woot! As you can already tell from above this model shall prove to be a challenging quest, but hell if won't look cool when I am done with it! Enjoy. Part 2 is about to ensue guys......ya ready for it?

Eva Build Day 2


So I drove all the way up to Cumming this afternoon to get to Hobbytown USA in hopes of finding my paint. Good news is they had a pretty good selection of Tamiya paint. They had the bold purple and bright green I needed. But not the light purple, orange, and yellow. But hey i got 2 out of 5 that's not bad. So now on to ordering the rest and waiting. So good news, getting my lazy ass out of bed and into the shower and up to Cumming, GA turned out to yield good results. I got some of the paint I needed. Bad news......I still have to wait for the rest of it. Good news, I can now start on actually building the Eva. Bad news, I don't know how far I will get until I need the other colors.

All in all today is a good step forward on the build. So:

Build Day 2 Results, I got some of the paint and can start building in the next few hours after I clean the house. Count down until I travel back into Nerdham for a little while, 5 1/2 hours. Damn skippy folks!

A Few Pictures






soooo let's see. Figured I would put up a few pictures to start off with. Above you can see me in "nerdham" as my photographer friend calls it, ha. I put together some magazines and though I only have three gundams out yes there are more in those boxes you see. That is probably an 1/8 of the gundams I have built if i had to guess. The following two pictures are of one of my favorite builds. A 1/100 scale Launcher Strike Gundam. I had it on display for a few weeks in a model store. Woot!
P.S. I am by no means a master model builder. Just a nutter who loves to build models. I am still working on shading with an airbrush and haven't quite got that down yet, but at least I can paint them with an airbrush and that makes me happy. And I thank my lucky stars everyday for giving me a steady hand so that I can hand line this little things without scribbling all over them but sometimes mistakes happen folks, and I have to touch them up with paint.

Day 1 of The Eva Build

Well everybody......today marks the first day of the great eva build. Let me give you a little background on this build. Long story short, back in my high school days there was a model I was dying to build. It was a Perfect Grade Eva Test Type 01 model. now if you don't know what an eva is go and you tube Neon Genesis Evangelion and you'll figure it out. A little lesson on grades of these models, you have High Grade, Master Grade, and Perfect Grade. Take a wild guess at which is the best and most expensive......ding ding if you guessed Perfect Grade than you win. But I have no prize for you. Anywho, At the time I couldn't A) locate one of these and B) when I did find one I definitely did not have the money to spend on buying it. So for the last five or six years I have only dreamed of this model.

I did however manage in 2003-2004 to acquire a Perfect Grade Wing Zero Custom. I built one leg and stopped. Don't ask why, I have no clue. I just stopped. A few weeks ago I needed something constructive to do and my brain kicked my skull and said "hey, you still have that unfinished Perfect Grade in the closet" So I brought it out and built it. I was talking to Chris one night (For those of you tuning in without reading the introduction Chris would be my bf) and besides thoroughly confusing him on what a Gundam was he mentioned his friend who is with him overseas builds them too. Apparently his friend has my coveted Perfect Grade Eva un-built just waiting for the day it gets put together. Talk about envy right? haha. So out of the blue one day Chris says I have a surprise for you coming in the mail. and that's all he says. No clues, nothing. A mysterious box arrives on my doorstep from someone in Illinois.

I am slightly confused as to who this person is and why they have sent me a package. I swear I checked the shipping label five times to make sure I wasn't imagining my name on it. i open it and low and behold there is a Perfect Grade Eva Test Type 01 model kit in this box. It was in perfect condition. Never opened, never built, all pieces. So now I am thinking what poor soul was this supposed to go to and how much that sucks cause it's on my doorstep, but then I realize, no.....my name was the label....it's.....mine? It only takes 15 minutes for my brain's stupidity to quit before i realize this is Chris's Surprise. Wanna know the first words out of my mouth? Well here they are, "How did that little shit find one??!!" throughout the day i kept running upstairs at random times like a little kid trying to catch santa clause in the act of putting presents under the tree in disbelief that this model was actually here and actually mine.

So now I have my coveted Perfect Grade Eva Test Type 01. Don't you love how my long story short turned into a short story long? haha. Well you wanna know the irony of now having this model? I went to go buy the paint and all the colors I need are back ordered. So tomorrow I am going to drive to a paint dealer and pray that he has the colors I need. If not, I am on the waiting list and hopefully I'll have the paint in a week.


Soooo.......

Build Day 1 Results.......absolutely nothing, I am sitting on my ass.

An Introduction

So, since I am guessing that most who may come across this will have no clue who I am. I am just a person....remember that....well I am just a very klutzy person who somehow manages to defy so many laws of physics it's hilarious. I have a wonderful boyfriend named Chris who is overseas right now. I love him with all of my heart and just want him to come home safe. I am a waitress and a student. I am studying early childhood education and I love it. Some say I must have a lot of patience to work with younger kids and maybe that's true but honestly I think it's because I still have, at times, the mind set of a five year old. I see a box of crayons and I go "CRAYONS!!!!! Let's color!!" Don't even get me started on modeling clay and paper crafts. I'll never shut up. I am also very much into building models. I don't care if they are cars, trucks, planes, boats, Gundams, Evas, etc. I build it all. And yes I do build a lot of Gundams.....I know......I am a nerd, but I am a cute and funny nerd so there...you can kiss my ass and make fun of me all you like. I read a lot of books. I'll read anything as long as it is interesting to me.

I go to school at night and work whatever hours I can get when I don't have school. I often babble about random stuff. Sometimes you may never know what will come out of my mouth. For the last 6 months I have been more places than I have been in my entire life. And it's all thanks to Chris he has taken me on so many great adventures. :-) I also apparently have really bad ju ju with cell phones. I am somehow getting a new one constantly. They tend to break a lot in my possesion and no I don't always drop them...they just crap out on me. I am a kind person who just loves to laugh and is probably way to over positive a lot of times, but hey, in my eyes that's better than being negative most of the time. I am realist when it comes to many things so just cause I am overly positive doesn't mean I ignore reality, there are just times I can't let it get me down. Well enough of this introduction. Now onto my babble that is my life. Enjoy.
