Day 126!

Note to self: Before dying hair, make sure you are not unconsciously trying to replicate a character from your favorite movie.


I started to dye underneath my hair pink again. Well first it started with a Lisa Frank pink/purple color, which faded fast except for the roots. Then I went with a pink/red color which faded just as fast though the purple in my roots is still evident. Not sure if you can see the colors against the red shirt/using my webcam, but I promise they are there.

















It's sad to say, but my hair is kinda looking like this guy. A firey from Labyrinth. I suppose there are worse things to look like.














No, actually there aren't.


"Hey, her head don't come off!"

Day 125!

How did it know!?

















I got this fortune in my cookie the other day and I find it crazy only for the fact that this semester I'm going to be taking statistics. I can't even explain how much I'm dreading it.


I'll try fortune cookie, I'll try. But I make no promises.

The little bit of random...

I may be the most obnoxious person on the planet.


The other day I played battleship for the first time! I know, how can that be possible? I owned it before, but never ever played it. So Dan and I decided to play it (I murdered that game), and while playing Dan sunk one of my ships, so like the commercial I yelled "You sunk my battleship!" Apparently, and I had no idea, not all the ships you have are battleships! Who knew? And Dan didn't actually sink my battleship but sunk something else. So to be the annoying person that I am, after anything he sunk of mine, I came up with new names like, you sunk my kayak! rowboat! canoe! raft! submarine! I find myself more amusing than most, I get that. When we were playing a second game I suddenly ran out of other watercraft names, so I shouted "You sunk my cheerio!"
















Oh Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. I used to read my sister's comics when I was 14 and that was one of them. Happy Noodle Boy was a comic within that comic and I always loved the quote "You will not sink my cheerio!" from it. Any time someone bothers me, I always think of that quote and it makes me laugh.


"I'm sinking like a stone in the sea."

Day 124!

Merry Little Christmas!
Happy Three Kings Day!
Merry 12th Day of Christmas!


Some how with the chaos of the holidays I forgot to take any photos and post for Christmas. So instead for Little Christmas I'll do a post of some amazing things I got for Christmas.



















If you know me, then you know I am obsessed with Rainbow Brite. Have been since I was a kid. I seriously have a decent sized collection of the original dolls. I happened to be missing one and the amazing Dan found it for me. Kitty Brite! It's insane for a white furred doll, circa 1985, to be in this good of condition.


















My brother is a genius. I had asked for these light up jars that are on thinkgeek.com. There are few different ones, either they just emit a color, purple, yellow, blue, or they have two that look as if there are fire flies in them. They range between twenty and thirty dollars, kinda pricey. My brother decided to be creative, and actually made me red and blue light up jars instead. How cool is this?

























I looove the artist Arthur Rackham. He illustrated for an Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Peter Pan book and a few other fairytales. My mom bought me this book and I was so psyched about it because there is a piece of his that I absolutely love and wanted. The Old Woman in the Woods. There is just something about that illustration that I adore and I got it now!


















Next to Rainbow Brite, Alien Ant Farm is another obsession of mine. They've been my favorite band since I'm twelve. Before they were on a huge label they put out an albulm called "Greatest Hits". This cd is near impossible to find, and if you do find it it's over 100 bucks. Go check ebay! My sister somehow found it and I was speechless when she gave it to me. It's seriously sitting on my shelf like a trophy.

Day 123!

Patent Pending!



















Got to see Patent Pending and This Good Robot play at Rec Center! It was the first time I've seen This Good Robot and they were awesome. If you don't have their album, The Human I Am, you better get it, it's amazing. This Good Robot .

Can't wait to see the two again on the 22nd!



"We don't care at all we just came here to party."

Day 122!

A day out with Dan!

Getting Christmassy, Dan and I hit the city to see the Christmas windows, the tree, and Bryant Park. Bryant Park is one of my favorite places in the city. All set up with an ice skating rink, restaurant, a tree, and some awesome shops, the place was a madhouse, but absolutely amazing.

Dan bought me this at one of the shops. Isn't it beautiful?



















We also went to see the awesome Brendan Rivera play at Santos Party House. He played the entire Musician album from his first band, Looking Glass Wars. My favorite song, Hotel, is from that album and it was the first time I ever heard it live, so cool.


















I've never been to Santos Party House before, it's a small club, but pretty cool since it's owned by Andrew W.K. Something I found interesting about the place, painted on the wall in black light responsive paint was a painting of two puppies. It was just so random because there was nothing similar through out the place. The walls were rather bare. The painting was cute and all, just weird lol.



"Oh what a party it will be."

Day 121!

Happy Winter Solstice! 

To celebrate the first day of winter, longer days and the return of the sun, I wanted to get a little festive. There are so many traditions to do, like baking, lighting a fire/candles, gift giving, ringing bells and so on. But I decided to do my own thing. I made a mini winter wreath with some sticks from the yard.

























And then I bundled up some pine with red ribbon. Pine is supposed to ward off evil during the winter months. You're to put it over doors and windows. So let's hope this works.
