I'm still here

I haven't given up on blogging. But my internet is down about 90% of the time for some reason. Since I'm not actually paying for internet right now, I can't complain. I just use my phone.

I don't have anything interesting to blog about anyway. I'm loving the Olympics; they make going to the gym so much better. Also, I work harder when they're on because I watch what those athletes are doing and think, "If they can do that, I can make it another 5 minutes on the elliptical."

Last weekend my birthmom came for brunch, and we signed our DAR papers. Soon we'll be official. We found out they even have a little "gang sign." Too cute.

My eShakti dress came, and it is gorgeous. I got tons of compliments. I wore it with a pearl necklace and earrings, and our school counselor called me June (Cleaver). So I ordered two more dresses, which should be here any day now. I have an addiction.

I really want to go to the This is Next Conference in Baltimore on Memorial Day weekend. There will be lots of single Christian guys, and the topic is something I need to hear right now. Anyone want to join me?

Why I Love Bust Magazine (and you should, too)

Since I am finally done with Practicum I and only have one project left to finish for my Reading and Language Theory class, I decided to spend the evening relaxing with the latest issue of my favorite magazine, Bust . In this issue, I read about: Fat women on reality shows A new version of roller derby called Derby Lite A global O that will be occurring on December 21-22 Recipes for finger foods to serve at holiday parties How to make your own yarn Asheville, NC (now I want to move there even more...) Amy Poehler's views on feminism Divorce ranches in Nevada from the 1930's through the 1960's (it used to be really hard to get a divorce, and Nevada had laws that made it super easy) Homemade Christmas gift ideas A guide to "handling some of life's major milestones- marriage, childbirth, and death- with a DIY frame of mind" The monthly "One-handed read" column And of course, there are the fashion and beauty sections. Also, book, movie, and music revie

I got a little out of control...

I started my end of the year celebration a day early with margaritas at Lalo's. Unfortunately, since I don't drink very often, they affected me pretty quickly. I knocked my fork onto the sidewalk. Nancy (with her 80's hair) pretended not to know me. Nina gave me this look. Good times, good times. 40 more minutes of school, and then I am FREE!!!!!

Fall!

Okay, I’ll admit it.  I’m excited for fall.  I LOVE fall.  Things I’m looking forward to: Sweaters and hoodies Cinnamon candles  Leaves crunching under your feet Carving pumpkins and toasting the seeds (that I will give as gifts because I don’t actually like them) Going to the apple orchard with my mom… apple donuts and apple ciders slushees… Scary movies Watching my Charlie Brown DVDs Starting school!  I swear, September always flies by in an adrenaline-filled haze… The smell of burning leaves Football!!! Making apple pie (that will most likely be given as a gift because I’ll be dieting) Fall crafts (I think this year I want to attempt a wreath) Hot apple cider My one and only complaint about fall is that it means winter is coming…
