Such a Hippie

It's super sunny today, which means that all I want to do is sit front of the window and sun bask while I play my guitar.  But I actually have to do thingssssssss

All Them Darn Young-ins

Ugh. Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Uuuuuuuuuggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Guys, I monumentally suck at talking to people. Like, when it comes to texting I get all awkward and antsy and I never know what to say. I've talked to people that I go to school with about this, and they talk about how they prefer texting to talking on the phone, and I'm just like 'Noooooooooooo'. Talking on the phone is just so much easier! And less awkward! I'm a lot more smooth of a talker than I am a typer. Whenever I text people there's just so much stress about what I'm typing and 'did I say the right thing???'. Ugh. TheFabKid

Love That Rush

I love that feeling when I can finally feel my caffeine kicking in. I get this rush and I feel all jittery and it's effing great! (I just love coffee so darn much!)  TheFABKid

Campfire Songs

So, with as balls cold as it's been lately I've kind of been getting a little impatient for summer to roll around. Also, for this past year I've been teaching myself how to play the acoustic guitar, so far all songs that I know already, because, well, I know them and I know how they go, so they're easier for me to learn. Tonight I was practicing some songs that I knew as a kid, American Pie and Leaving On A Jet Plane. Two really great songs, but they're a little older, so not everyone knows them. Anyway, it reminded me of when I was younger and we would have bonfires at my old house and It would be me, my mom and dad, and my best friend. At some point in the night my parents would always bring out this big old boombox/radio that we owned and we would play songs like American Pie and Leavin' On A Jet Plane and sing along to them. Playing them tonight made me really miss summer. I just want the warm weather and nice nights to come back so I can have bonfires aga...

College Winter

I missed how great it is to walk through a calm snow. Not the stuff on the ground, but when it's falling from the sky, and the flakes are fat and fluffy and gentle as they rest on you; when the snow isn't whipping them around like a madman. I got that today on my way to class, and it was just so relaxing. I felt happy and giggly and not stressed out. Everything else just kind of melted away and it felt great to have that little moment. See, I actually really love winter, but Southfield makes me hate it a little bit. You see, it's always so cold and windy and horrible during the winter, the snow stings when it hits you; all of it combined just makes winter kind of miserable. I'm used to the softly-falling-snow type of winter, so it was nice to have that tonight.

Snuggies Are Great

' I want Bardon to wink at me'  I say with my mouth full of pancake as I sit on the ground in my Hogwarts snuggie at 3:00 in the morning. In case any of you were wondering what I'm up to, this about sums up my current life. TheFab Kid (P.S. Bardon is a character in this book series that I'm re-reading, I'm the the book DragonKnight right now. I first read this series back in like 8th or 9th grade, and I really love it.)

Roots and Leaves

Image
In the new member ed classes we do in my sorority we do this activity called roots and leaves, where we draw a tree (it doesn't have to be anything special) and the leaves represent qualities about yourself that are obvious or easily visible; whereas the roots are things about you that not everyone knows. Now, the one that I did with the sorority, I didn't put everything down that I really thought belonged on there, so I made my own. I think I'll keep on adding onto it, but I thought I'd share it with you guys for right now.  Goodnight lovelies! TheFabKid 

I Made Things!

Guys, I made so many things today!! Woot, go me!! Today was actually really grand, all things considered. I made a big wooden box (it's my project for studio and we had to cut holes and rectangles out of the sides, so it wasn't actually all that simple). It stands 2 feet high and is 1'x1' wide and deep. Might I also mention that it's sexy smooth. I spent upwards of an hour sanding it with three different sandpaper grains, the last of which was really fine, so my box is pretty damn sexy, tell you me. (I'll probably post pictures after I'm done.) (Side note: There's a a guy that;'s kind of cute that works in the woodshop, and he was the one who ended up helping me when I wasn't allowed to work the equipment, so that's always a plus.) Then I made pancakes for the first time! I've actually never ever made pancakes before (I tend to prefer waffles), but they turned out really well and I shared them with my friend at the desk at 1:30 in the...

And This Week In My Life...

This past week has probably been one of my worst to date, excluding those where people have died. Like, for a normal week, it sucked hardcore, and tell you me, that sucking started out strong.  Last Friday I was in a car accident. I was heading up to see my mom and aunt about an hour north of where I go to school and about five miles away from my exit I got into a crash. I was in the far left lane of a four-lane highway and I looked down for a second. When I looked up I was over the rumble strips and I was afraid I was going to go off the road, so I turned my wheel, but I think I might have been on some ice or something because I lost control of my car. It started to swerve majorly to the right, and I couldn't make it stop and I think I started to spin. The next thing I saw was one of those reflector poles that have the little circle on top on the side of the highway, and it was coming straight for my driver's window, and I tried, but I couldn't do anything about it, and...
