Where in the world did summer go?!

SO. there are only 13 days until school starts. i'm starting to wonder where the time went. and how im supposed to get my summer reading done with 13 days left and a book and a half to read/annotate/respond to. band has already started, we even have some songs memorized?! it's all going way too quick!

I'm also making a scrapbook of all my band stuff (it's starting to accumulate) and trying to find time to hang with friends before school, i'm just a busy girl! i also have to find a way to get my pictures of my jewelry on here. so thats my plans for the next 2 weeks. 

read.
band.
scrapbook.
jewelry sales.
hang with friends.
work.

if i'm not doing one of those things i am probably sleeping or eating.

ttfn, ta ta for now

I ❤ Panera

Today i worked from 9-1:30. And i saw a ton of interesing things/people in that time. Ladies and gentlemen, for your enjoyment, strange people who come to panera:

1. The grandfather with wacky hair and his grandaughter who was wearing aviator shades and a pink wig

2. Aproximately a dozen men in their 70's who told me i was pretty as i took their orders  (that was cute, but a little uncomfortable)

3.  By far my favorite conversation with a customer (color coded for your reading pleasure)

man: it's really hot outside
me: yes it is, i'm very glad its air conditioned in here
man: It's so hot, the pole dancers are wearing oven mits! isn't that a hoot?!
me: *thinking to myself* i love you, mister

Bored post

Hey ya'll (haha im from ohio)
So i feel like im getting really close to advertising and selling my jewelry. I have pairs  of earrings made and am going to start taking pictures of them soon, i think i may need a few ear models though because i am lacking the piercings. or i may just go without. I start drivers ed tomorrow. im deciding whether or not i anm excited about it....

Something guys should learn

People need to learn how to interact without paying attention to the traditional ways of "how things are done". recently i've seen that some people won't tell other people their feelings because they think it might make things worse or just be plain awkward. I've also noticed that guys do this all the time. BOYS: IF YOU TELL OTHER MEN YOUR FEELINGS, YOU CAN RESOLVE ISSUES. guys never tell other guys if something is bothering them. it's not going to kill you. it's not that hard.

6/24/10

I'm thinking of using this blog not only as a form of expression, but also to advertise. i'm beginning to think that selling pieces of jewelry i make would be a nice way to get some extra cash, and with being able to put up pictures and descriptions, it sounds like a great idea. also, facebook seems like a good way to get the word out. 

p.s. new readers! try feeding the fish. it's awesome :)

p.p.s. how crazy were the thunderstorms yesterday? apparently all the power went out in hudson. not my house though! guess it's cuz i live so close to stow

Vacation adventures

Oh, family vacations are wonderful things. They can give you the most INTERESTING things to blog about :D haha so let's get started...

The trip up wasn't as interesting as the trip back. The most interesting thing about going down south is as soon as you're out of the good 'ol Ohio, you see the....erm... culture? Not 50 feet out of Ohio you begin to see them. The billboards. they're only 2 kinds. fireworks and "adult entertainment facilities".  The names are rediculous. you would not BELIEVE how rediculous some of the names were. my personal favorite "Southern 'X'-posture" however, my all-time favorite was "Bimbo's fireworks" (Bimbo was a clown haha). 

Other than the billboards, the most interesting thing i saw was a sign on the beach that said "Poking, prodding, and molesting animals are prohibited" it kinda creeped me out because apparently enough people molest animals where they need a sign to prevent it....
