Kiss Me, I’m Carbon Neutral!

Woah, if you just read my title, you can tell I’m bored and well, took the slogan off a pin I got at this years Honda Civic Tour! Today I haven’t really been up to much other then procrastinating, ex. watching the live UFC event that had a horrible card this afternoon and watching hockey games where I can sense the outcome. Pathetic right? Also, I had some horrible news revealed to me today. The Killers are coming to Toronto and well, I did not know and now tickets are sold out through Ticketmaster and you can now only get them for outrageous prices through Stubhub and ticketsnows, or.. whatever Ticketmaster’s high charging-making me mad sites called. They want $100 and up for tickets that went for $60. So yeah.. looks like I’m not going to that concert. Although, their is some good news…

AVENGED SEVENFOLD’S BEEN RESCHEDULED!!!

You have no idea how happy I was to know their still coming this year! So yeah, now I get to see them in December if I do not have an exam the day of the concert. I will be super mad if I do have an exam on the date considering, its the very last day of exams and well…I really want to go. Also, I only have two exams this year and yeah.. knowing my luck it will happen, and that night I’ll have to be writing a stupid exam instead of attending a concert of a lifetime. But.. we’ll have to wait and see at the beginning of November to see if I’m still attending the show.

Lastly, I got my Christmas present this week! Early? Well, yeah, but my gift went onsale for $299 instead of $399, so my dad bought it for me. I got myself a Professional Series Kitchenaid Mixer! It’s gorgeous, it’s red and it made some delicious chocolate cupcakes today. I love love love it and will no longer have to work with my mom’s shady-shaky and wrong attachment/missing parts mixer and now I can actually get new pieces and make stuff without worrying about bowls flying off or having stuff stick to the bottom of a bowl. So yeah.. Christmas this year will be dull for me, but I don’t care, I already got what I wanted!!

I’ll attempt to write more this week. Just lately, I’ve been busy doing random things with my parents and brother such as laser tag and the casino haha. Not mention, I must say, casinos are really freaky on “ladies night”. I swear, I was the youngest person their.. and older people kept staring… like really staring at me. Creepiness…

Oh, Sweet Turkey!

What? What? What? No update since September?

I’ve been extremely busy as of lately with homework, essays, readings, etc. All of which consuming every inch and moment of my time. But now I have a couple days to relax, and start slowly on upcoming projects. I swear, my professors must be part of some secret clique where they decide to make all my assignments due on the exact same day, and yeah.. it drives me nuts.

In other news, when I have had free time, I’ve been doing a couple orders, listening to Maroon 5 (<3), watching hockey/television and I actually went laser-tagging with my brother and his friends. Haha, I swear you can never be too old to laser-tag, but it was quite awkward at first going with my brother and his friends, since their is an age gap with me being older and I only knew two out of five of them. So yeah.. kind of weird. But after like 1 or 2 games, everything was fine, and plus they had to be nice to me, I was their chauffeur. And in hockey news, so far, boring season. I’m not really surprised by anything just yet since I find at the beginning of the season, hockey players do not try at all. In addition, the new season of Ultimate Fighter is amazing. Despite being a huge Frank Mir fan prior to 2004, I find these days, since his surgery, he isn’t entertaining or a good fighter, plus the team he chose sucks. I’m really rooting for Nogeria to win the season and for him to win the match at the end.

Well thats it for now. I’ll try and post again later this weekend.

It’s Not Right, Not Okay.

As I write this, I’m currently at school, bored to tears wasting time until my next class. What sucks the most about this is that everyone I know is either sleeping right now, has class or is at work. Therefore, I’m forced to spend time by myself, doing nothing at all but wasting time. It’s pretty much the same circumstance for my last couple of posts on here. I’ve been bored at school and just felt that it would be an appropriate time to update the site.

So whats occurring right now in my life? Well, not to much. Next week I begin to endure homework hell, meaning I have assignments due almost all the time from that week until the end of November (Whoa, now doesn’t that sound awesome? ). I also have a couple web design orders I need to complete but I should not take too long with those. So I shall be busy in the next coming weeks, but on Fridays I will probably have the opportunity to post here and inform you/make you aware of my hectic schedule.

In other news, I’ve realized that I have a weird attraction with man-whore’s. I find that every guy I like is a whore, meaning they’ve either slept around, dated way more people that I have fingers and toes or their just really easy. My friends and I coined the term since we’ve all had the same issue and well, it’s quite possibly the best way to describe them haha. Although, I do not understand what makes me attracted to them, but it’s beginning to annoy me. I need to change my system and avoid the man-whores.. somehow. Well, I can still glance over, but no connections can be made, distance must be kept haha.

Well, to end this post, I think you all should leave me recommendations for some good music. Any kind, I need some diversity.

Imagine all the Girls! (La La La)

Woah, how gramatically incorrect is this title? Haha. I cannot stop listening to The Ting Tings and Avenged Sevenfold’s new album. Both bands are amazing but each time I go to purchase their albums, no one can find them. I do not understand how twenty-five albums can just be lost in stock. Like no one buys albums these days and the stores that sell them are so small that I cannot comprehend how they can be lost. But yeah, I need to buy both albums when I actually visit a store that has them in stock.

In other news my black velvet cake turned out amazing. It sunk a bit because of numerous factors, but in general, it came out delightfully well. Everyone loved it and in addition, I made my own icing yet again, not following any recipe and it turned out smooth and not extremely sweet. So yay!

This week I have a ton of things to do. I have like five assignments due at the beginning of October then I also have a job interview tomorrow and I also need to start preparing for tests. Well thats it, I’m going back to typing up my school notes.

Woah, Woah Woah!

So life has pretty much thrown me a hell of a lot of curveballs this week and this year. I swear, 2008 = Worst Year Ever for me to say the least. My uncle died, wallet got stolen/lost (but later returned), Avenged Sevenfold cancelled, I felt like the oldest person at a Panic at the Disco concert, still not rich and I still am attending university. I really wish I could just win the lottery and live life freely! I would still finish school, but then I could buy my way through life. I already have a set list of things I would do in my head and hopefully they will be carried through at some point in my life. Haha. I’m not the kind of girl planning my wedding, instead I plan my spending! Woot! Also, I have serious issues with marriage. I feel as though every time I saw I do not want anything elaborate or want hundreds of guests, my mom gets mad. She’s beginning to drive me nuts since I’m not going to change my mind. I hate weddings their always so boring and I would rather have something exclusive so I can spend a lot on the people I love the most. Yuck,  now I’m rambling.

In other news, I did some more Wordpress orders, wo-hoo! I prefer coding then making layouts these days since each time I open up Photoshop, I think in my head… you should be practicing Flash for school. I like hate Flash, it’s just so much to take in and its like php coding, a pain in the ass. But yeah, I really try to steer clear however with practice I probably will begin to like the software.

 I baked vanilla cupcakes on Thursday that came out amazing. I’m really starting to become a vanilla cupcake girl! Theirs something about chocolate cupcakes and my oven that just don’t go as good. Also, I perfected a good icing for cupcakes, it’s my own secret blend since all the recipes I get online for icing always make it way too sweet. So yeah, mine comes out just right! And today I’m in the process of making a Red Velvet Cake (hypocritical?), it sunk though.. since I’m an idiot and placed it in a cool environment too soon.  Thats all for now.
