Foods?

that is what you could think of when you hear rabbit, black eyed peas and pizza.

thursday, october 15th
i walk out of my room to find this cuteness!
sunday, october 18th
you cant tell very well, but what we are holding are two absolutely huge bags from tarahumaras. one being large cups of queso and salsa, along with a bazillion tortillas, and the other being the largest bag of chips known to man. it was way bigger than a target bag even after we ate! in fact, we are still eating the chips.

why did we need $20 worth of tarahumaras queso you ask? well, that would be because black eyed peas and u2 were playing a concert in the stadium! naturally we had to head out to some grass and listen to them while enjoying deliciousness! i felt like it was a great concert, and we didnt even have to pay! nothing is better than sitting in a yard eating queso and drinking beer around a fire while listening (and sometimes dancing) to some live popular music. please musical artists. more of you need to perform in the stadium!

can i say best pizza ever? why yes. it was indeed. and i will be making it again.

Im Feeling Extreme Soreness...

this could possibly be due to carrying a heavy pumpkin and beer at the same time, having to use my arm muscles to carve my pumpkin or my many attempts to hang upside down on a stripper pole. regardless, my shoulders and arms are feeling it today.

after i finished my pumpkin it was brought to my attention that it looks like a blow up doll. well, it does. nothing i can do about it now.

i named my pumpkin noodle because of this cute curly piece on the stem.

the party we went to was very strange. and i cant fully place my finger on why. apparently i looked like a hippie reindeer instead of a gardening reindeer though.

one of many attempts.

tracy was wanting me to take a picture of my pole burns. unfortunately there isnt much to see. there are only some slight bruises inside of my knees, but you cant really see them. however, i sure can feel them!

Still Hating Orange

we kicked off our "fall break" thursday night by renting kung fu panda from red box. i was the only one who hadnt seen it and i was also the only one who slept through almost the entire thing! (dont worry, i watched it the next morning before hitting the road)

whenever i see sunroofs, i think of the girl in final destination 3d almost getting her head cut off.

brads family saw kristin chenoweth at dinner friday night! im so jealous! brad even suggested going to the same place to eat! so close!

what was the first thing we saw when we got to our hotel? besides a huge suv clearly unable to fit in the parking garage because they almost knocked off the clearance sign hanging in the entrance? a texas fan with her pants so far down that her butt crack was hanging out! very nasty sight. multiple people, including brad, took a picture. i seriously have no idea how she didnt notice.

the air conditioning in our room wasnt working so we had to switch. thank goodness there was one open! i think i would have died in that extremely hot room.

we ran into clarence! hes now married!!!!!

the night was filled with tracy not wanting to compromise and deciding to order a pizza for herself, one round of very nasty seven dollar shots, being the center of dance circles in the middle of the street, having boomer the horse do backflips, tracy and brad being pushed by the cops for talking, me running into someone who apparently has my phone number yet i dont remember ever meeting him, apologizing to reggie smith for brad being creepy and pointing at him while screaming his name and brad not being allowed to go to a party because of his attire.

there was also some playing in fountains.

and kissing rosa parks.

i guess tracy, brad and i had way too much wine to drink before going out? lets just say, i awoke saturday morning with an extreme urge to vomit everywhere. i guess i was a good alarm clock for tracy since i woke her up with my gagging and spitting. all in all, it was a very fun night!

the game was fun saturday, i just wish it turned out in our favor. i just hope same is ok. i learned that funnel cakes are extremely messy. tracy and i were covered in powdered sugar. we also walked miles to other train stops because brad was smart and found a way to skip a seriously three, four or even longer hour line. we sure worked off that funnel cake with all the standing and walking we did!

i know lots of other funny things happened, but unfortunately, i cant remember them. but what i can say is, i can no longer listen to the miley cyrus song, party in the usa. i just cant do it.

love.

Magical!

i made my skirt (tu tu) for my halloween costume the other day (i am being the caterpillar from alice in wonderland) and i am sooo excited about it! i think my costume is going to be very magical and i may even make my goal of the whole thing being under $20!

here are a few pictures that were inspirational to me when i was imagining what i wanted my interpretation to be.

i am also very excited because i found a halloween costume contest on the american apparel website where the top five costumes get a $100 gift card! all i have to do is wear something american apparel. which i do all the time and was planning on doing anyway (leggings and shirt). i hope i win!

Needing A Wardrobe

i am in extreme need of a coat for new york (along with other winter clothes). here are some that i have found on urban outfitters.

i just wish they were cheaper! i always get freaked out about buying things online because i dont know how it fits. i also wish there was some way to know how warm and soft they actually are. i read reviews but it doesnt completely help. hopefully i find one in time!

love.

Lovely Laura.

i had so much fun with laura this past weekend and wish she could have stayed forever! it felt like she never left and i loved it so much!

now for millions of pictures. i really did try to narrow it down, but i really couldnt. i actually wish i had taken more!

i would say that i will work on not loving so much, but why would i stop?! i just love sharing things that i love with other people and laura is pretty high up on the love list!

she finally got here! we greeted her with signs that we worked very hard on making while in the car. that isnt a random stick in tracys hand either. she bought a really cool handmade broom at the art walk!

i love toms.

i love pitas.

doesnt everyone need an "insulate your relationship" koozie?

i dont think i will ever understand why gameday shots are so tiny! we fixed the problem by each getting two.

i made them sit so i could take a self taken picture. for some reason self pictures are some of my favorites.

...and the hoooommee of ttthhee SOONERS!!!!!!!!!

were classy.

brad takes forever to get anywhere so we had to wait. i think i was seriously about to become a popsicle.

can you tell how freezing we are? we waited a very long time for our table at tarhumaras and it was well worth it! i think it was seriously 40 degrees. our frozen drinks didnt help with the freezing factor, but they were yummy!

like i said...freezing.


some fun while waiting for our table. i think it also kept us warmer.

love.

Lets Celebrate Eating!

brig, tracy, jessica and i began tuesday night dinner about four or five weeks ago and im loving it!

tuesday, september 22nd
chicken alfredo in my tummy! so yummy so yummy! with delicious oven toasted bread to dip in olive oil with herbs. yummy!

tuesday, september 29th
last week tracy and i video chatted with laura and set her down at the table like she was eating with us. the only thing that could have made it better was if the sound on skype wasnt acting up so much. we had some yummy noodles with cauliflower and onions. however, i wish we used 2 onions instead of less than 1. i was really freaked out that it would be overwhelming, but instead there wasnt enough for leftovers!
monday, october 5th
this wasnt a tuesday night dinner but i had to include it anyway for laura, brig and jessica. i wasnt feeling well and wanted to cook something that was very yummy and "cooky" but really didnt involve too much effort. that is when i remembered the amazing croque madame sandwich we made last year! i didnt have the exact things that are on a traditional one, so i made my own version with what i had. cheese, lettuce, turkey and an egg with some salt and pepper on wheat bread. it was so good! i wish i had more eggs so i could eat it again!
tuesday, october 6th
my sickness was about at its peak this day. i feel that jessica somehow knew because she then suggested eating grilled cheese and tomato soup! it was so amazing. exactly what i needed to make my throat feel a million times better! i meant to take a picture when we actually had food, but once again, i got way too excited to eat and didnt remember until we finished. regardless, it was very delish and delightfully soothing on such a cold evening!
tuesday, october 13th
i really failed today. as in we made broccoli cheddar soup in a bread bowl and completely forgot to take a picture. what a happy tummy!

love.

A Few Updates.

i really miss my pictures of the day. because of this, i decided that i am going to continue doing it, but with the possibility of a few days missing between. on that note, lets begin!

friday, september 25th

pharmacy house party after phi delta chi rush. very fun! and i finally got to catch up with leon!

friday, october 2nd
an extremely fun night involving eating a huge bowl of pho in the asian district that i have been craving for what feels like months. a stroll around the paseo district for the art walk. i cant wait until next time! and then a fun time of hitting campus corner! we really only made it to one bar. but it was exciting none the less!i put this picture in a frame on the table by the couch because i love it so much.

saturday, october 3rd
i dont have a picture, but it involved introducing my dad to my love of pink elephant. he seemed to understand. i dont even want to talk about what happened later that night.

sunday, october 4th
my most painful cold symptoms began. they are still with me. waking up multiple times choking on phlegm is not enjoyable. it should be gone soon!

love.

Go Pink!

this week is breast cancer awareness week so make sure and wear your pink all week! my goal is to at least be wearing something pink even if its small, like one of the pink hair flowers i finished making this weekend.

the front of our class also turned into a shopping adventure of all things breast cancer awareness due to the tshirt company getting confused about which shirt they were supposed to be printing. i got a super cute short sleeved shirt in tri-coffee and a gray hoodie! i cant wait to wear my shirt later this week! i will take some pictures of them and my hair flowers a bit later, probably next week.love.

New Home?

last sunday and monday i lived at michelangelos coffee and wine bar because i was deathly afraid of my law exam (i still dont know what i made on it). i was surprisingly very productive almost the whole time i was there, which was probably about 8.5 hours when both days are combined. im not sure if carolyn was quite as productive on sunday afternoon...... she looks pretty comfortable to me!

i think this place has become my study spot for when i really need to be productive. you just have to be careful. a guy came in monday night and began pounding on the piano. i mean to the point that i had to literally scream at allie to even have a chance of being heard. they also have very delicious paninis and pizzas. im beginning to get a craving just thinking about them!

love.

Small Rant.

dear football team,

why are you doing this to me?! i know you can prove that you earn your scholarships, you usually do. what changed? however, i am proud of how well you played yesterday. considering everyone is injured and the team isnt experienced, you did hold strong. next time, i hope you have learned how to receive passes and make holes. dont let laura down!

love.
