missing days

I awoke this morning feeling as if it were Christmas, not a clue as to why.  I am finally recovering from my sickness that had me in bed for four days, making me completely miss out on thanksgiving, and black friday shopping.  Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday, to end on a happy note, this is a beautiful photo that my friend Patrick took of my hair, this one is one of many that will be entered into contests and such this year.  
Have a great weekend!!

and she hugged him-

The girlys and I went out to Elmo's for dinner
em and jen and me, I think we were the loudest people in the whole diner.
Then over to mad hatters for some on the house coffee and cupcakes and lovin from mary and Michael.  
It was a fun night- just what I needed, new tradition is a bi-weekly dinner.  Twilight (cedric diggory!) comes out tomorrow- ahhh!

Obama for your mama

I know this is 16 days late, but my camera just woke up from it's short coma, and I finally got this photo.  I am so glad that I did no make this cake in vain.  Short story, the day after the election, my math class actually stood up for the pledge.  This is something that has never happened, and it was really amazing.  Good for america.

grab it before the old lady does

I got a thrifted hat yesterday, I so love thrift world.  

It has a lace covering and a little feather on top.
I am so in love with it.

Santa Heads

I know that it is a horrible thing to start thinking about christmas before thanksgiving, but I was getting coffee at P&O this afternoon, and they has christmas candy galore, and it got me thinking about the few things I want.
I have already stated that I want these, and I still do, the north is way colder than the south, and my feet get cold really easy.
Again with the cold feet, these slippers are wonderful!  They still don't compare to the elephant slippers that I had for so many years (until my dog ate them all up), but they will do.
This is just so cute, I have coveted it for months, but never got the guts to buy it.
METALLIC UGGS!  Need I say more?
Pink wheels, these can help me roller around campus wicked fast.
I already have a turntable, but it is hard to transport because the speakers are huge, and this one would be perfect for a dorm.  Also on the list is a Ihome, or some such thing.  My big idea is to get stuff for college.  The dead line for early apps is tomorrow, so I am taking tonight off to go see Oliver at school with amy.  I'll finish early morning and have them all sent in by noon.  Have a good weekend!

Troika music fest night 2 was last night
Old Ceremony, Bellafea, Kimya Dawson, and the Rosebuds all played at the Carolina
Me and A went early and bummed around downtown
A took this GREAT polaroid during an interval
We totally wanted to play checkers
The Rosebuds

It was a great night!  The first band Bellafea was not to good, they kinda killed the mood, but Old Ceremony played really well, although not to dancy, and then Kimya Dawson just was really sweet and told a ton of stories.  The Rosebuds totally stole the show though.  Maddy came for them, and the three of us were sharing two seats.  We danced in the isles because you just gotta dance to them.  We got to dance on stage at one point, and then the lead singer tried to pull me and a up on stage, but the usher was really stupid and told us that we weren't allowed.  But it was great anyway.

just because they might keep my feet warm

While at Macalester, I saw lot's of people wearing Uggs, even one little boy.  I have been re thinking my aversion to Uggs lately.  I am not sure if i could ever pull of the short light colored ones, like the pink ones i recently got rid of, but these tall black ones are drawing my attention.  I know i don't like the use of all that animal product, but they are still so so so amazing, and I want them.  And besides, if i am (hopefully!!) going to be spending the majority of my time next year in below freezing Minnesota, then i need some more practical footwear.

Precheck

Got home from visiting MAC today
It was such an amazing experience, everyone was super cool.  It was actually warmer there than it is back here, and they had an actual fall, with leaves on the ground and everything.
These are Michael's glasses from his costume, i still have them, and kinda love them.
GO VOTE TOMORROW

Tainted Love

On a whim went to 80's dance at the cradle
It was perfect, exactly what i needed to just forget about my looming air flight and interveiw at Macalester...  but the dance was a blast, even if the dj(s) sucked, and they never ever played tainted love.
Happy late-ish halloween
Xandra had a great party, most everyone came out in full costume 
jay and pat, a egyptian and Danny Zuko respectivly
Michael as a Neo-Freudian 
I was sandy for the night, me and pat made a very convincing couple
Megs and kath, aka, Blair Waldorf and Hester Prinn 
Brittany and K-fed
Princesse Lolly
GObama
For school me and megan did the gossip girl duo- 
I don't know why I look so angry!

It was such a fun night, and everyone was wonderful!  I love halloween, it is by far one of my favorite holidays, especially since it marks the beginning of the holiday season, now I can really start baking cookies and pies and such.
