Christmas Cards Oh Christmas Cards

I love making christmas cards but am way behind the ball this year. I am just at the "Oh crap" where do I keep everyone's address stage which is the first step for me. I like to address the envelopes first and then make the cards after. For some reason it feels better that way. Like i never throw out/cross out old addresses so I have no idea which address is right and s othen I have to check with everyone. And then where are everyone else's saddresses? I sent them last year, i must have written it down somewhere. ugh! Anyway, I also still don't have a great idea for the cards! Here's hoping they come out well....it seruiolsy makes me so nervous wanting them to be perfect. I also found out I DO NOT know how to do caligraphy. Seriosly, each address looks completley differnt and many look like they were written by a parkinson's patient more than in a caligraphy style. Eh , hopefully they will be at people's houses by like a day or two after christmas!

Oh Eckerd Parties and Funeral Homes

So as always Eckerd get togethers some how break down into some kind of insanity, be it videotapped strip beer pong random coworker make outs or whatever. Well last night after a start at Malone's (a classy Kenmore local drinking establishment) , lets just say the night ended with some hide and seek in a funeral home and a fake wake. That is all I can say about that right now, but interesting night with my eckerd peeps as always!

Today I planned on doing so muhc since it is so crappy out. Like decorate the tree, make my chritsmas cards, walk to work and do some of the ten million hours of computer training we need to do. So now it is 5:30 and I have done none but I am about to eat for like the 10 tenth time. Hopefully I will start on the cards right after that and now my om is home ows we can decorate the tree! YAY!

What A Wonderful Wintery Day

Seriously I love today so far! I woke up at like 10:30 to the smells of sauce cooking in the kitchen. My mom does not make sauce as much as she used to and there seriously is no feeling as great as waking up to the house smelling of some wonderful sauce cooking! It seriuously makes me feel so good! So it doesn't end there, I come down and my dad had went to my cousin's so I decided to shovel for him. It was actually kind of fun cuz the snow wasn't too heavy and it was the first time for the year so it wasn't so bad and it was nice to surprise him. Then me with a little help (ok lots of help) from my mom made the mini cheesecakes I will be bringing tonight to the party.

Then we hung some lights in our windows that are twinkly stars that i love. And then I wrapped my gifts for the needy children tree at church. And now I think I will go on to working on my home made christmas cards. (which hopefully will be coming out soon!) My day kind of sounds like a Hallmark commercial frankly so far and I LOVE IT!

Unfortunately I have a memorial mass for my mom's cousin tonight who passed away. But she was really sick for a long time. I will be at the potluck after that. ALl in all so far a wonderful day!

(P.S. i tihnk it is even better because I am not stressing over my chem final tomororw now that I am not going to pharmacy school!)

It's Officially Over

So i officially decided yesterday that I am not going to Pharmacy school. I told my parents, coworkers and dermatologist. That makes it pretty official. THey all have differing degrees of dissappointment but frankly I hate science, and I don't care if you don't really do it on the job, I can't do it for 4.5 more years and then if I don't like science should I relaly be a pharmacist anyway. Like i relaly don't find it interesting at all...so now I need a new life plan...possibly winning big in the lottery or at the casino? Or opening a store, I love cash registers, maybe a cash register store? haha. I need to find something ough, possibly I'm thinking going back to school for my masters in sociology and work twoards a pHd and becoming a sociollgy college professor. Or maybe a socioal studies high school teacher except I fear my life is too much on the internet alreayd for that. Too many pictures, too many stories, and I come up way too fast when you google search for britney's privates. !

Fancy Balls

So ever since seeing an incredibly amazing episode of Gossip Girl a few weeks ago I have wanted to have a masquerade ball. And then after seeing enchanted I just wanted like a fun formal ball. And then wham bam thank you mam two come right my way. One my friend Rachelle finally convinced Danielle to let us use her house for a masquerade ball for Rachelle's bday in January! She has a cool masquerade ball like house I have heard.

And then (e:amanda) told me about this tonight. It looks like fun, yo uget to dress up and drink and eat and be merry and the money goes to charity....

www.thebuffaloball.org

I can't get the link to work for some reason so you will just have to type it in.

it seems like it will be fun, excpet last time me and (e:amanda) were at a formal at the Statler we got kicked out and she almost wasn't allowed to graduate college....hopefully it turns out to be just as fun this time!

Enchanted

Enchanted was really good! Like super good! Me and (e:jill) went the other night and I loved it! I think she liked it a lot too! Like it was kinda just like one of those old disney cartoons but like newish and fresh! The girl playing the princess was relaly good and the little girl was so cute! Everyone was really good in it! I can't get the songs out of my head and just keep watching scenes from it online. Yes, yes maybe I am really a 12 year old girl. You know why I am writing this right now:? Because I should be studying for my lab final tomorow!

I especially loved the part where she is singing "how does she know" in central park and eveyrone joined in. So classic disney and so great!

Here is the trailer for anyone who doesn't know what movie i am talking about.

Oh the Things You'll Find

Oh the things I will decide NEED to be done right now when it is less than 24 hours before an exam in a class I know virtually nothing about and am doing poorly in and need to do well in to have any kind of future:

so far today....

1. cleaned up my shelf where I place things until I get to something I am really avoiding (like studying today) and then go through all the papers and recycle and file as necessary

2. count all the dimes in my globe bank (it is up to like over 700)

3. refold and organize all the clothes that are in my room not in drawers

4. re-read all my random cards I have bought over time to send to people to decide which ones to start sending out...IN FEBRUARY

5. plan on going to see Enchanted possible with (e:jill) after class

6. taking a snack brake every 10-15 minutes...thank god for girl scout cookies and asiago cheese (no not together , well ere and there i suppose they mix in my mouth)

7. go to the post office and wait in a somewhat long line in order to ask about what to fill out to send things internationally. I'm sure it could have been quicker online but it just seemed like I needed to go there and talk to someone.

8. go over all my bank statements and balance my check book

9. organize the christmas gifts I have bought thus far

10. the USA Today Crossword Puzzle followed by the other puzzles in USA today followed by reading USA Today

11. reading (e:strip)

12. Watching Days of our LIves in the first time in what seems like forever

and of course...

13. writing this journal about procrastinating. OK well back to the grind of studying well......maybe a quick check of facebook/gmail/myspace/soap opera digest website ....but then back to studying

Spice Up Your Life

Sometimes I forget how much I love the Spice Girls and all it takes to remind me of the greatness is one little magical phrase "spice up your life". Hearing them always puts me in a better mood, they were musical geniuses!

Look at those gals, truly amazing in all their tacky glory!

August Rush

So me and (e:jill) and (e:diana) went to see August Rush last night. Like I kinda wanted to see it but we had no paper and so just went to the theater and that was the only movie playing at the right time for when we were there that we all kinda wanted to see. Anywho the people next to us in line warned us not to see it but we did anyway. Ok so the beginning was really quite boring but then it got like pretty good , though at times the whole like music is in every sound we hear got super plyaed out and repetivie but there were some really good parts but like anwya any movie like this which if you don't know is about a kid whose mom was forced to give him up kinda and he thinks he will find his paretns through music and so he escapes the orgphange and etc. His parents also only met for one night and then were separated and are tyring to find each other. Anywho, the whole point in movies like tihs is for the big finalle payoff where the lovers find each other and kiss and are reunited and then tey see their kid right? THIS WAS THE BIGGEST LET DOWN EVER! LIke i was all set to be emotionally moved and we were all ready for the tears to start flowing but then it just kinda ends. LIke it is a happy ending of course and the stuff happens but in such an unexciting , unemotional stupid way> It actually left me angry! Like Really angry! Like we all were. Like they just forgot the end of the movie or something! It was ridiculous angry makingful!

But one scene that made it all worth it was withthe kid and jonathan rhy meyers who is the dad and they play guitar together , it was prolly the cutest thing I have ever seen in my entire life, and i have seen some cute things in my life.
