SO WHAT! Wednesday



It's SO WHAT! Wednesday and I'm linking up with Shannon.

SO WHAT! if...

  • I have something due for class tomorrow and I'm somewhat watching Something Borrowed and typing this.
  • I CAN'T stand the Kardasses and my roommate has that damn show on 24/7. 
  • this is week 2 of classes and I need to get my ass in gear!
  • even though I'm surrounded by people all day I feel alone and it can only be fixed by the boyfriend. He makes me so happy.
  • I STILL can't think of any thing to write for my blog! I need ideas or an exciting life!
  • I want a vacation!!! I want to take the boy and go to Maine for a few weeks!
  • I need to start getting serious about this whole internship thing. Seattle might be working out after all!
  • I have to go home this weekend and get some last things that I left at my house. I REALLY don't want to go!
  • I got $20 from the boy for dinner tonight and I totally told him it was going to my tattoo fund! Bam! Now all I need is the money for a tip and to make the appointment.

Holiday Cards

So I bit the bullet and asked my boyfriend if he wanted to do a holiday card together. He actually said YES! We wrapped up our picture taking last night with the conclusion of a Fiesta Bowl WIN for our OSU Cowboys! Can't think of a better way to end the holidays.

Our card is in the post below {Thanks Shutterfly for the auto post...NOT! Big fat FAIL in my book. Oh well.}

So long 2011

With today being New Year's Eve I figured I'd jump on the bandwagon and post my happenings of 2011.

JANUARY

I started my blog thinking it would be a fresh start. It actually has but I haven't blogged as much as I'd like. Call me lazy or busy, I don't know, but next year I plan to have a routine. I met the most AMAZING man and we have grown so much together.


FEBRUARY
I had the best Valentine's Day to date! We weren't dating at the time but the boyfriend and I hung out and I made him a cute card.

MARCH
I turned 26 and had a pretty rockin' birthday even if I didn't go out. I also went to New Mexico for Spring Break

MAY
The boyfriend and I started dating on Cinco de Mayo and this month ended my time on campus for school.

JUNE
I didn't get an internship like I was supposed to but I did get a job and that was awesome! This was the first month the boyfriend and I had to be away from each other. Many visits were had.

JULY
The boyfriends birthday was this month and I wanted to make it special but I attended a wedding instead. He was okay with it.

AUGUST
This month started my commute to and from school. It also started my last year of college.

 

SEPTEMBER
We celebrated Buddy Beagle's 5th birthday


OCTOBER
I got to take advantage of Halloween and the fact that I was home and dressed Buddy up!

NOVEMBER
The boyfriend and I celebrated Thanksgiving together with his family


DECEMBER
We celebrated 3 days of Christmas and our first Christmas together which was really crazy but nice. Tonight I attended a New Year's wedding which was really nice. It was held outside with the reception in a barn. It was really great weather for it being December 31st and all!

I bet there are many more memories I'm missing but those are the big ones. Overall 2011 has been a great year!  I won't miss it and am looking forward to many more exciting events in 2012! We will be sending out a Holiday/New Year's card and I can't wait!

SO WHAT! Wednesday

It's SO WHAT! Wednesday over at Life After I "Dew" and I'm linking up!


SO WHAT! if...

  • I'm not in the Christmas spirit this year. I know I should be since I have a new, fun and amazing boy that would do ANYTHING for me and a new "extended family" but I'm just like oh well.
  • I STILL don't know what day it is let alone the date! Not being in school is throwing me off so is not working everyday like normal people.
  • I really don't want to work the rest of the week! I've watched 2 Christmas movies and I'm usually on my 5th or 6th one by now. {I blame it on school, Senior year and Finals. I had no time to be lazy!}
  • the only time Buddy gets excited to go outside is by taking him for a walk. {That's good right?}
  • I'm 95% done Christmas shopping. The last 5% is going to be easy {I hope} but I'm broke and can't get the rest until Friday.

What are you saying SO WHAT! to this week?

SO WHAT! Wednesday


It's SO WHAT! Wednesday time over at Life After I "Dew" and I'm linking up!

SO WHAT! if...

  •  this is the only time I blog anymore. It's the end of the semester and I have no time to. {Even though I get on here EVERYDAY and read other blogs.}
  • I'm happy I don't have to go to my Studio class anymore!!! {Now to wait and see if I pass the class!}
  • I still haven't finished my Christmas or Secret Santa shopping. I get paid Friday and intend on finishing it then!
  • I want to be done with school now! One more semester is going to kill me drive me crazy.
  • I need to get dressed and on with my day to go to work but it's so warm and snuggly in my bed. The cold can stay outside.
  • I bought the boyfriend and myself matching pajama pants for Christmas. I want to have our picture taken with them on but it probably won't happen. {Maybe at his dad's.}
  • I have a paper to write that is due next Tuesday and I don't want to write it. I have to actually think and researce this one. Not fun!

What are you saying SO WHAT! to today?

So What! Wednesday


It's So What! Wednesday over at Life After I "Dew" and I'm linking up!

SO What! if...

  • I spent the holiday weekend over at an amazing house with an amazing bed with the boyfriend while Buddy stayed here at home. {We tried the whole 3 dog thing one night and he got beat up. Oh well.}
  • I have a project due tomorrow morning and I'm just now {well after this post} starting on it plus I have to work tonight. I need money and work is the only way I'm going to get some.
  • I've only done my Christmas shopping for the boyfriend and my dad {Plus, my secret santa.} My sister's gift is easy but I don't want to go to the mall just yet {plus, I don't have time!} and my mom's is easy but I never remember to stop in the store {and it's right next door to my work!}
  • I just want to pass my classes this semester. Senioritous has kicked in full force and I am SO drained with all this commuting crap!
  • I can't get up the nerve to tell my dad I can't do the commuting thing anymore. He's going to have "extra" income coming in January anyway because my sister will be done with school so why can't I live in Stillwater for my last semester? It will be a huge load off my shoulders and I'll get better grades.

SO WHAT! Wednesday



It's that time of week again! I'm linking up with Shannon over at Life After I "Dew" for SO WHAT! Wednesday!

SO WHAT! if...

  • I missed last weeks link up. I definitely had every intention of posting but got distracted by all the blogs I needed to catch up on! Oops!
  • even though I see lots of Life After I "Dew" readers {plus Mrs. Dew} abbreviating her site LAID I can't make myself type the acronym or shorten it. {Is it just me???}
  • I just received my Erin Condren Life Planner {it's SO pretty!} and I don't want to write in it or mess it up!
  • even though I already have a Lilly Pulitzer planner, I bought a Life Planner {I had a coupon and NEEDED to use it!} and want to see which one I like better.
  • I have a project due NEXT WEEK and I am SO behind! Sleepless nights here I come. {Plus work and other school things! Why did I continue a job I can't work? UGH!}
  •  I should be getting ready for the day and working on my project but instead I'm writing this and then going to print out weekly schedules for my planner.
  • I accidentally bought 2 vouchers for Erin Condren's site and don't need/didn't see anything else i wanted. {I gave it to Shannon. She needs it WAY more than I do!}

What I've Made on Pintrest

There's no doubt that all of you know about Pintrest. It's a great place to get ideas for anything and everything. Well, I've pinned a lot of crafts, recipes and sweets on my boards and I thought I'd share how many I've actually made.
 The s'mores on the stove didn't turn out like I thought they would. Oh well!
 I made a version of this with a piece of blue cardstock, a cheap frame from Wal-mart and Photoshop. It's hanging in my boyfriends room.
 I didn't actually make this. I just bought pre-made cookie dough and put it in ramekin's and baked. Still tasted yummy! 
I made these even before I knew what Pintrest was. They taste yummy but are some work. Maybe if I had an easier way to make them.


I've also made a fun clipboard. Got an "old school" clipboard from Staples and Mod Podged scrapbook paper on it. I also made a school binder to keep myself organized. {This is a take on the many versions of Home Management binders or Control Center Binders.}

I hope to be making more things as time goes on. Has anyone else made anything they've Pinned?

So What! Wednesday



It's that time again! I'm linking up with Shannon for So What! Wednesday.

So What! if...

  • one of my teacher's is worried for our whole class. We have a project due in roughly 2 weeks and she doesn't think half of us will have anything to turn in. {It will get done and she will have something to grade. Don't freak out!}
  • just so I can spend Homecoming with the boyfriend I am going to be coming home on Thursday when I usually stay the night and come back Friday. {He doesn't care what I do to get there just as long as we spend Friday and Saturday together.}
  • also for said weekend I had to find 2 people to cover my shifts at work. I haven't been scheduled on a Friday or Saturday for 3 weeks! 
  • I'm sick and tired of all the work drama that 3 people are making! My boss wants me to stay and I will I just want the problems resolved so work can be peaceful.
  • it looks like next semester I'm going to be missing a good chunk of one class to be in another class just so I can graduate. If the class at 9:00 would move to the afternoon that would be great and I'd still only have to go two days a week.
  • I still don't want to do anything for my online class. {this class is a joke and isn't helping any of us.}
  • I'm ALMOST caught up on my DVR and shows! {Yes, classes have taken a backseat for a bit but it'll be okay.}
