Joys of registering

Kevin: So you didn't register for a lot of Martha Stewart things did you?
Christie: *quiet*
Kevin: Crap
Christie: Here, you can just look....
Kevin: Holy Sh*t
Christie: heh heh heh
Kevin: I WILL NOT HAVE A MARTHA STEWART MEAT TENDERIZER!!
Christie: heh heh heh

haha .... i love this :) Don't worry..... i took the martha stewart meat tendorizer off the list for him, i'm not THAT mean :)

This is what i look like when i eat

Okay, some of you might know.... i have a VERY big soft spot for hedgehogs. Ever since i was little my grandma and i have been addicted to hedgehogs. ( Kevin had discovered my soft spot when we went into the pet store in Vegas and they sold them there.... i was THIS close to making him let me buy one..... yeah right lol)

Anyways, you have to watch this video till the end, the end makes it worth it :)

Ballerina memories

I remember the days that were so easy .... walking down the street from the condo my family and i had lived in until i was about 3. While walking down the street, my eyes caught on to many other girls my age who were running around in their tutus and twirling around, feeling the breeze and fresh air around them as they spun. My eye's had found their focus, and i was determined to one day be inside that dance studio with a ballerina outfit on and TWIRL till i couldn't twirl anymore. At least i would be huffing and puffing on my way home to be able to get home and tell someone about what i had learned!



After moving from this condo, we moved to my favorite home ever on Cordova Street, where i was able to run up and down freely in my driveway and be the best ballerina ever! Which is what the above picture presents : Me excited in our new driveway in my new outfit!!

Missing

I'm alive, i swear. I've been SO busy lately, every day is either work or school. And then the one days i have fully off.... i have a list of stuff i need to do ( and then i end up sitting on the couch for 5 hours straight watching Law & Order marathons on TNT, lol).

Every saturday that I have off for the next month is booked; Kevin and I have our nephews 1st birthday this saturday, next saturday i have to take my WPE exam at school, and so on and so on.

I hope everyone else is doing good and eventually i'll try to make some decent post!!

p.s. i'm freaking out because i've been procrastinating on so many wedding things, and it's coming up in 4 1/2 months!! I still have yet to get a DJ booked.... register.... eek, i'll shut up now :)

New Semester

So here I am, sitting at school waiting for my next class to begin. My first class got out within 10 minutes since we don't have our books yet.... so I had the pleasure of catching up on my Medium episodes while waiting the two hours before my next class, lol. So far, i'm already scared for this semester and I've only been to one class. My first class was English Grammar 320. Our teacher looks as if he is in his 70's, talks extremely slow ( class is 2 hours so this will be interesting) and told us that 40% of the students that take this class will either fail or drop out. Way to start the day!! haha. The book for this grammar class is an old grammar book that is about 4 x 6, and about 50 pages thick of old, dirty and used pages. Doesn't look like he has changed the books he uses for about 50 years, haha. So this will be interesting .... but I have to find a way to pass this class because it is required for my English Education BA. So good luck to me!

Now i'm off to " Theatre Today" and " Survey of American Literature"

Wish me luck! Sigh

Love

I'm not much of a shoe person, but i'm in love with these. I think i might just have to be a little risky and have red wedding shoes ;)

Update: What the heck... i just got an email saying that my order for these was canceled because they didn't have any more in stock, and they refunded my money. SIGH. I swear, it was to good to be true to find my wedding shoes for 14.99 from payless, haha. And especially the fact that they only had two sizes left and i was going to be getting the " last size 7 regular."

Updates from here... and there.....

Hi everyone :) So after finally recovering from the flu, I'm back in action and trying to enjoy my last week and a half before school starts. I'm so not looking forward to school ... why you might ask? Because I am taking the most insane classes ever: English Grammar, Shakespeare, Theory of Fiction and Film, and Survey of English Literature. Each one of these classes seems interesting and challenging, but all together: I'm going to go insane! So wish me luck :)

So Kev and I did our taste testing for the wedding! It ended up being pretty fun; it was about 60 other couples who were going to be married at the same location, and we all were sat at tables for two to enjoy our food. We helped ourselves to appetizers, had waiters pass appetizers around, then we helped ourselves to the main courses and the chocolate fountain for dessert. We found some things we really liked, and some we really didn't. The things we were looking the most forward to ended up being disappointments... but we were really happy with an herb stuffed chicken and the prime rib. We also fell in love with the baked potatoes, grilled vegetables and rosemary grilled potatoes. I tried coconut shrimp for the first time too.. and was amazed! So we have some fun choice to make coming up.... but whatever the dinners will end up being, they'll be good :) I'm hungry for them now.....

I've also been busy doing more stuff for my mom's business. We ended up putting her stuff up onto a website called Etsy. It's like an ebay for people who make their own products and would like to sell them. Her storefront is here if you would like to check it out. It's been fun, and it's a good way to put her business out there and get tips from other people like her and how to sell stuff, get the word out, etc. I've also made her a blog, which she wanted to get into. So if your still bored enough you can check that out here. She just needs to learn the lingo of blogs and such now :) Which will be funny to watch....

And on the wedding note, the bridesmaid dresses are in! I'm thrilled and want to go look at them now.... but that would be ridiculous and i'll have to wait till i get a bridesmaid with me, haha. I also ordered my wedding shoes...... i got them online though, so i'm crossing my fingers they look as good as they did online. And did i mention they were on clearance for $14.99 ?! SCORE! It was fun, the other day i went shopping with my friend Amanda who is also getting married this summer, and we went shopping for bridesmaid dresses for her wedding :) It was fun, we picked the dresses ( which are totally cute) and had our normal lunch at Super Mex. Tis the season for weddings! ( and stress? lol)
