Seat Positions

we have designated seats in brads car. we didnt plan for this to happen. it just kind of became. this was realized based on these two pictures. one being taken while going home after a party and one being when we were heading to the warren to see final destination 3D. (i wouldnt recommend that movie. it freaks me out when sharp objects fly into my face.)

yes, she did fishhook him.

and that is one of the infamous ogie dogs/any animal that you desire.

Dark Chocolate

remember when i talked about how tracy and i really want to try those dark chocolate reeses? well, we still have yet to do so! i feel like target is hating on my junk food desires because they didnt even have jalapeno cheetos when i went the other day! i mean seriously, cristina cant be the one who brings the yummy snacks everyday! and speaking of wanting those reeses, here is our saddness that we cant find them.

but we are still happy because we have so much fun all the time!
we also made it to the last twilight series show a few weekends ago. it was very enjoyable.

Creations!

i feel like i have been extremely behind in blogging, so here are some creations that i have made in the past few weeks! i am very excited about each of them! lets start from first to last...

about a bit over a year ago when i bought my vegan cupcake book, i told cristina that i really wanted to start a cupcake club. it would start with just the two of us and then we would open it up to others once we decided what day would work the best for us and figured out more of the details. well, one of the details was that we needed shirts! i mean, what kind of club doesnt have shirts?!!? needless to say, a shirt company will obviously not print only two shirts, so the project was put on the backburner for quite some time. thanks to tracys creativeness with felt, i figured out the perfect idea for our club shirts! here is one of them. i made one for me and one for cristina and i still have another design to make for each of us. now all we have to do is wait for endo to be over so that we will have time to bake!

i have been wanting to make a fabric ball and knot necklace since before the end of finals. well, i finally made one! and right in time for football season! now, all we have to do is get our offensive line to learn how to play football. seriously, what happened to them, besides all the guys with experience leaving?!

i also made my first skirt ever and plan on wearing it for the football game tomorrow! it is supposed to rain so i cant decide if i should still wear it. but i think i will because i am so excited about it! and what would i wear if i didnt wear it? jeans in the rain...not a fun experience. my oklahoma t shirt dress......the same as the skirt. my other red dress with white on the top and a black band on the bottom....the same as the skirt. so the options are: my skirt that i love and really want to wear, or my very short victorias secret "athletic?" shorts. i think i will be going with my skirt. im glad that it has some pink in it. that way i can get away with wearing my chacos by claiming that they match. i hope this skirt brings some luck! (it looks kind of strange in this picture because its wet. i decided to hand wash it in order to avoid the possibility of the red color choosing to bleed onto my white shirt in the rain. hopefully i will have a picture to post of me wearing it!)

and yes. i am still working on my towel wrap! i have been using it for the past week or so, i just need to add a few finishing touches before i show it to you! these touches involve making buttons, which takes me forever since im not a clay master like carolyn and tracy. therefore, i have been putting it off a bit....and studying diabetes a lot this past week. i must also say, im glad my grades agree!

i have also decided to participate in this letter exchange that i told tracy about! i think all of yall should too because it will be a lot of fun!

love.

The Last Tastes Of Summer

yes. these are the lasts pictures of the day that i took and they are very long awaited! in fact, so long awaited that i will post the dates with them. or at least the first one so that there is a reference point.

a large part of me very much misses doing pictures of the day. i started doing it to document my new rainbow and to help appreciate every small moment of every day and to not take things for granted. i feel like doing it really helped me out a lot. it especially made me truly enjoy just being. i talked about this earlier in the summer. i think my camera is glad that im not doing it though because now it doesnt die all the time or run out of memory. (goal in the next few weeks is to back up all my pictures so i can delete them off my camera. feel free to purchase me an external hard drive. it would make things so much easier and more reliable!)

friday august 21

never. again.

saturday august 22

tracy, brad and i went to eat sushi! tracy was very awkward with the waiter and tried to explain why he had to refill her glass all the time by forcefully saying that her mouth is on fire. she then realized how awkward she was being and then became more awkward by hiding in her arm while finishing her sentence. he was also walking away. completely unaware that she was talking to him.

we did a photoshoot before opies. mainly because tracy and i decided to do "fish" eye makeup including fake eyelashes.

we also tried to slack our face while shaking to get funny pictures. none of us were very good.

brad was pretty good though!

some great dancing times!

Why Cant I Breathe?!

dont worry, i can breathe fine. who you should be worried about is callie. this is a legitimate question she asks herself on, im assuming, a regular basis. and by regular basis, i mean throughout the day. every day.

before callie left for florida she came down to norman for her last day in norman celebration filled with pink elephant and the library, of course. while in the car, callie began singing michael jackson and talking about her intense obsession. it was at this moment i truly realized how obsessed she really is. one of her goals is to sound exactly like michael jackson while singing his songs, including the little uhs and screams and any other side noise he makes. attempting this makes her unable to breathe. she found this out one day while singing and realizing that she couldnt breathe. after asking herself "why cant i breathe?" she realized it was because she really isnt michael jackson! hahaha maybe one day, callie, you will be able to sing and dance just like michael jackson! (and right now i am picturing that video of callie dancing in tie dye with a drink in her hand while on the cruise)

i also need to say, on the way to gawk at the beautiful night sky a few weeks ago, brig, tracy and i sang man in the mirror. callie, i am sorry to say, i think tracy is michael jackson. she can even breathe while singing! hahahha

i know this picture isnt completely related. but it kind of looks like callie cant breathe because she is so scared of me. maybe its me eating her tail. or maybe its actually because she thinks that i have more michael jackson skills. haha

love.

Its Football Time in OOOklahoma!!!!!

and i cant even tell you how excited i am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOOMER SOONER!

i just wish all my loves were here to enjoy it with me.

Get Funky.

last night tracy and i went to our first funk dance class. from the moment i walked in the door, the teacher looked at me like i was going to be "that" white girl. the one who cant do anything. and he was right. and i was right. because i knew that i was going to be awful before i even walked in. he just kept giving me these looks like, come on white girl. and then he would start counting things and be like "alright, i will count for those who need it" "one ee and uh two ee and uh..." and i know it was always about me! i mean, it was fun. but i think it will be more fun when i improve. i cant explain how awful i am haha! but im sure most of yall know that i am not a rap dancer.

here is a picture of the class that i took from the studio websitelook how intense he is!!!! i feel like an embarrassment to even be standing in the same room. oh well, i think i will improve as the classes go on. my goal for next class (two weeks from now) is to practice with tracy and come back and be so improved that he can only respond with "you go white girl!" haha well see what happens.

i also really want to take tap classes. that is what i originally wanted to take, but it didnt fit in tracys schedule. my goal is to find some cheap tap shoes before class on thursday. i just think it will be more fun to actually take a class that i have some sort of talent in. or at least i did back in the day when i took dance.

on another note, i finally finished reading god delusion! took me long enough! i agree with some things that he says, but a lot of the time i dont like how pushy he is with trying to get his point across. its almost like he is talking down to the reader like they never would have had these thoughts themselves had they not read the book, which is definitely not true for some of his points. i also feel like he is a bit of an extremist in some views, which was expected, it just got annoying sometimes. i really enjoyed reading the parts that involved evolution the most. maybe one day i will finally get around to reading the selfish gene! we will see. right now im moving on to harry potter 2!

tracy and i will be giving plasma for the first time later today so that i can afford buying a bike and dance classes. im a bit nervous and hope that im not too anemic. my anemia issue may just be in my head. hopefully i wont pass out. wish me luck!

love.
