I'm Infectious!

So right now I have a skin infection. It's crazy all over my face like gnarly. I was going to post a picture, but I think I will spare you all. But believe me, I do not want to go to school tomorrow. Ug, and I feel horrible with all the medication that I am on for this.

Anyway, I have interviewed for an intern position for Grafitipink.com which is an internet site for underthings which I love. They will be so much better than Victoriasecret.com in a year. Check it out! I hope I get the position. I'm so excited, this is such a great opportunity for me, I would be calling vendors and going on errands and talking with the big wigs of the company. oooh!

Yesterday was Brad's birthday. Brad was one of my first if not the first boyfriend I had, and he's still one of my best friends today. Happy 20th Bradley! It was fun.

Oh, how I wish to put my name on that board. Well wishes to all of the VT families hurt in this...

In other news I bought Another Magazine last night. It's such a great English culture mgazine, I'm sad that it only comes out twice a year. It's packed with interviews, fashion, and articles (I especially loved the one on the Nyau). It was 18 dollars, tax included, but still, it is a great bookazine people! Packed with things! Yummy!

By the way, I get access to predictables at FIDM, which are magazines that predict what will happen fashion wise in the upcoming months. Should I read them and post them here for you all to go and buy the new fashions so you all can be in style first? Yes?

Today was my first day of school! It was a long day, but I enjoyed my classes (the retail environment and the history of costume) and I look forward to friday.

Guest Speak at FiDM

Guess who it is? Tim Gunn is coming to FIDM on April 27th at 11:30. I'll be in class but how exciting! Bradley Bayou is coming on May 2nd at 6:00 and I'll be there, I can't wait!

So Sorry

I've been a little busy driving my new white car around. My cousins from Virginia have come in for spring break which is exciting. My family, my cousin Mary, and her friend Alex went to The Dresden Room in Hollywood for dinner for my birthday, which is on thursday. It was really good food. I had the veal piccata, and it was like butter. Yum. Well, it didn't taste like butter, but you know what I mean.

Work is going well, and I have my school orientation tomorrow. That should be okay unless I hit tons of traffic going down there. I probably won't but who knows. I get to have lunch at the school for free as well, what a bonus. I actualy start school next monday.

I have decided to go to England for my winter break. I know someone who lives over there, and I get a 10 week break, so why not go and visit? He has a mansion with an indoor gym and pool, so it can't be that bad of a situation to hold another person. I think I can deal with the weather as well.

My cousin Shelby didn't come home the night before last night, (she's 15) so my Aunt Jackie had the cops searching for her practically half the day yesterday. It turns out she had passed out and th guy she was with lied to the cops. Oooh scandal!

PS: Look at my farmers tan, eek!

Freakin' Awesome

God, what have I done. Or become. Or something. I will soon be turning 20 (in umm..ten days but who's counting?) and I mean look at me now. I have found my "style", I'm just completely in my skin. Which is great, I guess the teen years really do suck in that sense. I can't wait to move on with my life and into my fab twenties. Yes!

Work is actually getting better. Which is good. All this week I work from 8 to 1, which means taking care of the small animals and then doing the cash register after that. It's so much better than the afternoon! Tomorrow I have off because I'm going down to register for my classes. I'm so excited! I probably won't sleep tonight unless I work out really hard before hand then go to bed at 12 or something.

Totally random, but my debit card numbers got stolen for the third time today. So now I'm -$200 in my account until they can figure it out. Sweet, huh? Nope.

Pucker Up!

Yes, that is candy folks. I don't know about you, but I love me some candy. Especially from the Sweet Factory. They have so many choices and it's all so cheap. My favorites are the gummi fangs (pictured here) and the chocolate covered honeycomb. Yummy. I just want to clarify that the fangs do not usually have the sugar on them, but they were mixed with sour candy, so there.

It's raining here and oh so yucky. But I guess April (kinda) showers bring May flowers. I can't wait until school starts. I'll be taking:

1. the retail environment
2. marketing essentials
3. english composition (I've already taken this class, so I might be taking college algebra instead)
4. history of costume
5. technology for business applications

Sounds like fun, right? It also sounds difficult, for a ten week period to be doing that much work. But I'll manage.

I've been wearing a purple turban to keep my head warm. Awesome fashion statement in California anywhere, no?

Sorry guys, I had to put my name on everything since it was a project =(. Anyway, I wish I could magically upload my whole project, it was in a green suede photo album and so colorful filled with cardstock and loveliness. Oh boy. Oh and every picture had cordinating accessories, but I'm not going to upload them, too much work. Please comment on my work!

FIDM

I got into FIDM. Oh me oh my.

Drawings of Goodness

My cousin Marlene drew this incomplete picture of Bob Marley. Isn't it good?

I got the job at Petco so I've been celebrating with a dark beer. Ysy!

I have all of my stuff done for FIDM so go me! This is really so exciting. I cen't wait for the hard work to begin.

That's really about it, I haven't really done much the past few days. I am going to a bbq with Kyle to another Kyle's house on saturday, which should be fun.

Nice Lady

So I went into Jo-Anns the other day to buy materials for my project. I got talking to my cashier and she wanted to go to FIDM but she couldn't afford to go.

She went to Cal State Fullerton instead but became a buyer for Brighton and went to Japan to study leathers. How fun!

She gave me that mannequin to remember her by. How sweet! Just though I would share.

My project is going great by the way. I can't wait for April 4th, which is when I start school! I'm also getting a new Toyota Prius to make the drive with. Yay!

Not Dead

Sorry guys, I have been doing shitloads of stuff to get into FIDM please bear with me, new post on thursday...

Applications....

Are so difficult. Especially for FIDM it seems like. I have to do an application, an essay, a a project (with two parts), it's crazy talk! I'm definitely not excited about this. But I do go for the walkthrough of the school tomorrow. I'm excited about that.

If I go to FIDM, I will be replacing my trusty (yeah, right) old steed of a camaro with a new mazda 3 (yay!) paid for by student loans. Yes, I said that right, I am financing my ride with financial aid. Oh well, I'll just be in debt forever.

No Word on the Petco job yet, although it has only been a day after the interview. I'm sure I'll get it. Hopefully. I'll know by monday.

I added a painter's box to my blog, so paint away people! Have fun with it, I am! This is my first piece of art, show me yours! If you hit save, it saves it on their website, so you don't need to save it on your computer!

Byron goes home tomorrow. But he is mean so it's semi-okay. He called me smelly. And a bunch of other things. Haha how juvenille.

FIDM

So, I think I might be going to FIDM soon. Yeah, I'm kind of excited. It would be fun if I got to live downtown and all that jazz. I'm going to major in fashion merchandising which is really what I want to do. Be excited for me people!
