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.

Crossroads

So this week was pretty much.. hell on heels. So what happened exactly?

Well, my Avenged Sevenfold concert, as well as many other dates were cancelled/postponed till a later date on Wednesday. It really sucks considering they cancelled the day prior to my concert. I really wish I knew it would be cancelled days earlier, or even a week earlier. Having it cancelled the day before pretty much ruined my next day. In addition, Ticketmaster and Live Nation were so slow at responding to the cancellation, like it took nearly twenty-four hours before they posted anything. But I did get a personalized phone call from Ticketmaster the day of my concert informing me of the cancellation, saying my tickets are still valid, but the new concert date is yet to be determined. Now all I need to pray is that they don’t come during exams or on November 25.. since Cobra Starship’s that day.

Then, I had a full week of school. Yuck, I do not miss school at all and instead am back to my old procrastination ways and well, I still have yet to read a chapter from any novel/textbook I’ve purchased. Pathetic? You bet! However, I have an assignment due Monday that shall get done!

Then, I made two Danish braids, however one turned out messed. Well, the whole thing just.. opened up. The braid never held, but it still looks tasty as hell! It’s still cooling now and shall be ready for tomorrow morning.

Other then all that, this week was pretty darn crappy. I finished one new clients wordpress, however that will not be linked until the site goes public! Woot, and it looks extremely hot, the layout, coding, everything looks fresh!

Now I shall leave you!

I Have Friends..

In high and low place….

For some reason, I’m back to listening to Forever the Sickest Kids and am also back to updating here. Yay! So whats my problem/cause for lack of updates? Well… university is to blame and well my hectic offline life. Therefore I’ll sum up some recent events.

Went to Best Buy on Tuesday, buying SUPERNATURAL SEASON 3!
Casino on my last day off on Wednesday
Started third year of university last Thursday
Went shopping to the Buffalo on Thursday
Went out on Friday
Shopping for baking supplies on Saturday
Watched wrestling on Sunday and went out to eat for my brothers birthday

So thats whats been going on. In addition, I’ve been hanging out with my friends almost all the time now that I’m back in school and have been away from the computer for quite some time as well. Although, I have not really been doing anything productive. I swear when I do have a break, I should be opening my textbooks and getting ahead in lecture, but yet again I’m acting lazy, leaving my books in the bag I bought them in, until I need to use them or have an exam to write.

Well thats about it. I have so many things to do.. and have no idea where to begin. Also, AVENGED SEVENFOLD on Thursday! yay!!!

Can’t Stop Thinking

Despite seeing Maroon 5 on Tuesday, I am still in a Maroon 5 blur, constantly listening to both of their albums on repeat. It’s pathetic, I cannot help myself, they were amazing live and I’m still shocked by their greatness. Since I’m feeling nice, right now, mention a Maroon 5 song in your order and get 15% off your order (applicable to orders over $5).

Hmm, so I’ve bought three pairs of shoes in the past week. The Adidas outlet/depot had a summer sale, with everything 40-70% off, so I bought two pairs of running shoes. Damn them though! All they had were either massive shoe sizes like 12+, or extremely small shoes -8, I’m not average, size 9’s and 10’s are always out of stock. And, I also got a steal on a pair of Michael Kors sandals! They were regular $180, then were 50% off, so I was expecting to get them for $90, but.. someone wrote $64 on them and thats what I got them for! Woot, someone couldn’t do math!

In other news, school starts soon and I’m pissed. Hopefully my next week will be exciting or at least productive. I still wish we go on a day or two trip to somewhere new outside of the province, not Buffalo, New York, or somewhere neat in my own province, not Toronto or back to Niagra Falls… but I doubt that will happen. I swear all my family ever does is go to Buffalo, Niagra, Toronto.. etc. All cities that are only in a half hour drive.

Well thats it.. I’m not falling apart.
