lightbulb!

Oh the "freedom" of summer has finally inspired me! I put "freedom" in quotes only because I am still in school :( But luckily only one class :)

So, I have been wanting to submit something to Subversive Cross-stitch's Flickr for a long time. But I wanted to come up with someone orignal. That site can be kinda dirty, vulgar, and inappropriate. That's why I love it, it's not what you would typically expect from home made crafts.

So what is this genious idea? Well I am not telling you yet. Here is a hint: My boyfriend and his friends got it from a comedian (i believe) they say it ALL the time. It could be hung on the door of your bathroom. Hahah.

It's going to be a quick and easy craft. Yet disgusting. I am soo sending to him when I am done. LOL's

Back in Action

Well hello! I am offically in summer mode! Although I am still enrolled in school, my unit load is only 3 for the summer! Hooray!

Here are some things I promised:
1>) I went down to San Diego, twice! I actually really enjoyed myself! I went to a wedding on the beach

2) My mom's artichokes are in bloom! I just had to test out my camera's zoom skills. I would say pretty good! I have a version of this as my wallpaper!

3.) Zach's birthday! I made this cake that is my all time favorite cake (and i typically really don't like cake) It's like a brownie cake! made with lots of chocolate!!!

4.) Crafting! I actually got some embroidery in! I bought a duvet cover for Zach's comforter and embroidered his initials!

As summer school settles down I should be crafting more! And I have a brand new camera, so I at least I can post pictures! Keep coming back!

Latest crafts

1) The very hungry clincian book I made for class-soon be uploaded
2) A gift for someone
3) That car I have been working on for like 2 years, well I am making a vow to finish it by fathers day so I can give it to my grandpa! let's see if I can do it!!

Crafting Epiphany

Finaly! I am crafty again! The best part is, it's homework! My professor informed our class that we had to make a visual of the assessment process for a client. My mom suggested an idea, and I totally ran with it! So far it's adorable and I am putting in far too much work on this for what it's worth. But does that really matter if I am having a blast doing it!? And I don't feel guilty spending lots of time because it is school related.

I am going to scan my project in once I am done...exciting!

sad day

I was going to take a picture of my pile of cross-stitching magazines to explain why I couldn't just pick something! Alas, my camera has died. Due to the fact that I am in a crazy graduate program, I am not working for $$$. Thus, no new camera for me yet! :) In time.

So, for the time being hang in there with me. As summer approaches I feel my craft juices flowing again! I like it!

I have flagged some of my magazines for future projects. I still need to finish an old car! I had another idea, but I decided if I made it...well that I would have bad karma. So I decided to toss that project until things get a little bit settled down.


I might be making something for my boyfriends birthday as well! Time to steal mom's camera if I make anything! Check back soon, I promise I will have something in the coming weeks to share!

Honestly, I fail.

So,I am soo uninspired lately! I makes me very sad. By the time I am done with my projects, homework and clinic; my brain is just flat out fried. It sucks! I have had some time to craft and nothing came to mind. I am hoping that after the next two weeks are over and summer begins that I can start my regular crafting again. I miss it.

For now I was tagged by Ashley! So here goes
The Honest Scrap award comes with a caveat or two. First, you must tell your readers 10 true things about yourself that they may not know. Second, you must tag 10 people with the award.


1.Unlike Ashley I am very OCD. I don't like people touching my radio, I can't stand people who eat "loud" things in class, I freak out a bit when things are messy, and I must have a to-do list or my life doesn't work right.

2. I must have my toenails painted at all times. typically with this little white flower stickers on them. Another OCD habit of mine that not many people know about!

3. I love fruity smelling bodywash! I am not a big fan of food smelling stuff, but anything tropical and fruity I love!

4.I have a really strange degree and not many people understand what I do! I freaking love my job and I can't wait to get started being an SLP!

5. People who are hypocrites,lazy or unresponsible really piss me off. I am a very motivated person with goals and aspirations, so to see someone being stupid just bothers me because they could have potential!!!

6.I only used to write in pencil, being left-handed I hated pen because my handwriting is all messed up. However, now that I am in graduate school I typically only write in pen! Which is totally weird!

7. I too have been skinny dipping! More than twice!

8. I have three stuffed animals on my bed! The pink snail from blues clues I bought at Great America, a black bear holding a puppy that my boyfriend got me, and Bee's Knees that my mom got me when I was a little baby and she worked at bumble bee tuna! hehe!

9. I really want cat. I think I have become allergic though, and my parents are getting another dog. But once I move out, I am sooo buying a kitty!!

10. If I had to wear one thing for the rest of my life it would be my rainbow sandals, a victoria secret lace long and bra, a pair of comfy jeans and a cute t-shirt. :) Basically what i wear everyday already!!

I don't have enough people to tag, but do it if you want to!

3 Cups of Coffee and One Diet Monster Later....

I am still crashing. I would love time to fast forward to Wednesday Morning at 9am. Not only because it is my birthday!! But I will be done with my nutso week! I have my first assessment ALONE tomorrow, a big brain injury test, than an essay to write. I will let you know if I make it though the day. Not to mention, I got a brand new client and will be seeing him for an hour on my b-day. Yikes. I can do this, I have been through worse and survived. haha.

here are some artsy pictures I took of Zach's nephew- I had fun with my camera!
