MEXICAN BULLDOG.


Happy Halloweekend!

So last night the most epic game of costume laser tag was held...we all got some pretty strange looks but we raaaped. 3 games and 2 high score players in our group! And the rest of us were mostly ranked at the top, so we did pretty well ;)

After laser tag we all went to Applebee's for dinner/drinks and it was nice to talk with everyone again! You kind of realize after high school that no one just really gets together and talks anymore. Birthdays are a nice way to get people together, cause if it's just a "hang out" rather than a party some people decide they just don't "feel like it" or something and you don't get to see people! But everyone gets brought together again for birthdays, and I've got at least 3 more birthdays to attend before the end of the year! So I should get some socializing in there somewhere!

Do any other girls find painting your fingernails to be a pain in the ass? I always end up touching something and screwing up the freshly painted coat that I just put on :/ even when I try to be super careful! I tend to have to paint my nails a couple times before I can get it to look okay (and not have any strange indents or fingerprints in the polish...) but when I was at Sephora the other day (with the Sea Otter!) I saw this stuff sitting beside the stand of nail polish...it totally made my day! It's called quick dry spray and it pretty much makes it so your nail polish dries in like 10 seconds. I put some nail polish on in the store to try it, sprayed my nail with the quick dry spray...then touched it like 5 seconds later and it was completely dry! So I'm super happy now because I don't have to spend a million years painting my nails :) and yes boys, I know you don't care...but for most girls this is a big deal! ;)

Oh and I also have realized I'm not so great at applying fake eye-lashes...I bought some little ones and I could not for the life of me get them put in the right spot! Took me like a half-hour yesterday to get them to look decent for the party! And now I'm going out again tonight (cause it's Halloweekend!) and I put them on again, and they look better today than they did yesterday...but I still need a lottt more practice!

TWICE IN ONE DAY I FIND MYSELF IN BEWILDERMENT!


I'm finally 19! Woot!
Went out for the "first drink" with the boyfriend and had a very yummy Main St. Rita (mango, wildberry smoothie thing-a-mabob with tequila!) and some dessert :)

I have turned my birthday party (happening this weekend) into an epic game of lazertag...in costume...cause we're cool like that.

After re-organzing and painting my bedroom I feel a lot more "grown-up"...my room is now a lovely grey with an accent wall of a darker charcoal grey. It used to be a turquoise-y blue that I chose when I was 10 years old. And now I have a place to hang up all my new clothes that I bought with my birthday money :)
I bought a really pretty new winter coat! And some other clothes...and shoes...and make-up...and a new bra! My back has been hurting a lot again lately so I'm hoping that having a bra that actually holds up my chest will help balance me out! And I have made it into a size 6 at H&M...which is a fairly nice accomplishment since I used to wear a size 10-12 on a regular basis!

I'd much rather be the size that I am now than a size zero...I'm not even sure how that is a size? I don't understand why people try to get themselves that skinny...the majority of the guys on the planet have agreed that people that skinny look unhealthy and would much rather date a "real woman" who has some curves! I'm a healthy 145 lbs (give or take 2-3 pounds!)...which is a good weight for my size (considering I'm barely 5'5") and I'm quite happy with myself now! My goal before wasn't to lose weight it was to be healthy, and now that I'm healthy I feel better and I'm not going to try to lose anymore! If it happens it happens, but I'd rather eat yummy, delicious food (and my starbucks!) than have to diet to lose a few pounds! Happy and healthy is much better than sad and skinny :)

I DUNNO, IS YOUR MOTHER A NUMBER?

Cleaning, cleaning, cleaning.

Cleaning of two kinds has occurred over the past week! Finally cleaned up my facebook friends list, got rid of over 100 "friends". And now I'm cleaning my bedroom...a lot...so I can paint. I'm sick of the bright blue/turquoise that my walls are right now, so I'm painting it grey (or rather my mother is painting it grey...but I picked out the colours!). 3 walls will be a lighter grey and one wall is going to be a dark charcoal-ish grey!

The Sea Otter and I have both decided to go back to school. It's an awesome school in downtown Vancouver and she's going for Hair and I'm going for Fashion Business! We've both had to post-pone our start dates though...but it was so we could keep our jobs...which is rather important when your student loans end up being over $10,000...
It would be really fantastic if school wasn't so expensive. I would have gone into fashion right out of high school...but sadly I don't just keep $15,000 in my bank account "just in case" I need it. It would be pretty awesome if I did have that much in my bank account though!
My course apparently comes with a crap tonne of homework and projects and studying. Which records have shown I'm not that great at. I'm attempting to change all that and I'll be getting some help from the friends and the boy along the way! I will need someone to make me do my homework instead of sitting and staring at it...hoping it will somehow do itself...

On another note...
My boyfriend sucks. He got me addicted to playing Zombie Lane on facebook. And it is taking away from the time that I should be using to clean my bedroom. So if my room doesn't get completely finished by the end of today I blame him.
(Love you babe! <3)
His punishment is a rather large hickey and now he has to play scrabble with me on facebook (so I can kick his butt).
