There need to be 47 hours in a day

The next few weeks are going to be pretty crazy for me, with work getting busier each day and Finals just a week and a half away. I am so looking forward to the last week of March, where I will have TWO WHOLE days with nothing to do. Nothing.
That doesn't mean that I don't have things that I could do (like give my apartment the spring cleaning it desperately needs..) but I don't have to do it. I might just be lazy for two whole days.

So y'all probably won't be hearing from me for a while. Just know that I am doing well, and very happy, if not a little tired.
Love you.

what a week!(and a half)

I have had a crazy week and a half. Take a look

Monday's are always a bit of a blur, because I have class all day. Then it was Heart Day..

 Last Wednesday I had a math test, which I was sure I had failed, but actually did really well (for those of you who somehow don't know this yet, math is not a strong subject of mine. To say it is a weak subject is being kind).

Then Thursday I had an Interview for an Internship, and left with a job!(more on this later..)
Annnnd had two online classes start. 

Friday I decide to go home for a quick visit, because I won't get back for quite a while now because of aforementioned New Job. (I started yesterday)

And last Saturday my sisters and I saw The Artist. It's the *mostly* silent movie that has taken the industry by storm, and is nominated for 10 Oscars.

Have you seen it? What did you think?

Then I made some hors d'oeuvres(prosciutto wrapped asparagus and little mushroom stuffed triangles) for my parents to take to a meeting/wine tasting/party/thing.


 
They were pretty yummy and easy.


And now I'm going to go watch the snow fall for a minute before I have to get ready to go to work.


Have a lovely weekend everyone!

eleven things

1. It's V day. Go hug a Veteran. They are freakin' awesome people.

 

2. I pulled something in my chest last week and it hurts to eat. Words cannot describe how depressed this is making me.

 3. The look that the doctor gave me when I told her that I thought that the Knife Kit that I carry around was the reason that I hurt my chest was priceless.

 4. I love this month. Writing the date looks so nice and neat, no matter what day it is.

5. I'm pretty excited for Thanksgiving.
 

6. Every time I walk past a 7 Eleven I sing " Oh Thank Heaven!" in my head.

7.  This reminded me of my mom:

Love you. (I'm pretty sure there is a lot less mess now, though. It's all over here. Heh.)

8.  Um, Baby Sister? Can you make this for me when I come home?

Please and Thank you. I'll even help...by licking the bowl.

9. The Pidgins in this city could take over one day.

10. This made my morning:

11. A day like this won't happen for another 101 years! What!?

website love

Because I have lots of studying to do for the first round of midterms next week, I'm just going to be sharing some of my favorite websites today. I might be able to finish off the other post I was working on, but I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. You might faint.

Etsy 

Etsy is a site where you can buy and sell anything handmade, or vintage. The last of the two is my favorite part.

They have tons and tons of clothes.

And pretty jewelery.
Its easy to spend hours on this site. You can also find art, patterns, homemade beauty products, furniture, bakery, scarfs, and pretty much anything else.

Pintrest
This is a site that I LOVE. I am a visual person and am forever bookmarking things that I like. I don't have to do that anymore thanks to this brilliant site! Once you sign up you download a button on your toolbar with allows to to "pin" a picture onto a board, from anywhere around the web.
Take a look:

You can also  just browse through what other people ahve pined and pin what you like to your own board.

Foodgawker
 Of course this is a favorite place of mine. Its food. hundreds and hundreds of pictures of artfully arranged, yummy, beautiful food. 

You can search by recipe, too.

So go and check out the sites! And let me know what you think. I'll be here...pertending to be studying knife cuts, but really drooling over the mac and cheese page on foodgawker.

A Few Things

I went from working 3 days a week, to 5-6 days a week, hence the sudden silence over here for the last few weeks. I haven't had time to cook..or sew...or work on cutting little squares so I have 1,632 squares for my quilt. Hopeful I'll have things back under control soon, but I'm not holding my breath because:
