2 Weeks!

So we move in like 2 weeks, or less. So I prolly won't be very active until after the move. Or maybe I'm lieing and I'll be on everyday as usual, who knows! So we shall see, until then :) Take Care!

Ahh the good ol' days

So I'm sitting here bored outa my mind. So I decide to Google up my elementary and middle school. I found out some interesting things.
First, my elementary school, Lake Forest Elementary(Home of the Rangers!!wooo lol) STILL has the same freakin principle I had while in 5th grade. Bwah? It's been, 11 years since I went there. Now, Its possible she was principle for a few years, then backed out, and came back, but still...wow that's a long time. Also, they now have to wear uniforms! Suck. The outside still looks the same and some of the teachers names are even a little familiar.
And as for my middle school, McNicol Middle, the only weird thing about that place now Is It's obviously sooooo much more better now then It was back then. It was the scariest thing in the world to be 1 of 3 white kids in that school(no, I'm not trying to be mean here, or exaggerate, It was the truth and It was just in a very bad part of town) But looking at some pictures It looks like there's a bit more diversity at the school now and surprisingly the walls aren't filled with graffiti and It looks very well kept.
They rebuilt It the last "year" I was there(we moved to a new town after about a month of my 7th grade). They made It a very nice 2 story huge white building, and I so expected It to be completely covered in spray paint before I had even left It. I'm very happy they got some teachers/principle in there that look like they actually giving a shit, that was a huge problem when me and my sister went there. If you showed up and didn't hop over the fence and get yourself killed, you passed. Now they actually teach!
So If you find yourself bored, go Google your old schools, Its rather interesting! Just thought I'd share :)

And oh, my puppies cut Is so much better after we performed some first aid on It :)

SWEET!!!!

Just called the realtor. The lease was sent via email and we'll be filling It out tonight! Her son just got sick, that's why It was late getting here. See, I knew It would be something like that that was holding It all up(...yeah, suuuure I did lol).
So I've begun again making piles of things we wont need for 2 weeks and we're going to go buy a lot of Rubbermaid tubs this weekend to pack with, cause that's just the most useful/easy thing to pack with really hehe. No playing tetris with your many different sized cardboard boxes and the tubs have like a hundred different uses afterwards.
So we are 1 step closer to a better life! Just knowing we will be in a better place(hopefully, I think I'll die inside If the house/neighbourhood we move into Is shitty, but thankfully It didn't seem so while we were there, but you just can't tell those types of things until you've been there a while).

We just finished patching up our doggie. I made my bf come home during lunch time so we can do some doggie first aid. Something riped a gash behind his head and apparently he was scratching at It at some point and made It really big and bloody. So we cut as much hair away as we could, rinsed It a while with warm water, put on some iodine(ouchies) and rinsed It some more and put on some antibacterial cream. He's such a tank, just once I wish he'd yelp or something so I know when somethings wrong but no, he never does.
Now before people start yelling at me to take him to the vet, It just an everyday cut really, when I say "riped It big and bloody" don't go thinking he's leaking blood everywhere and not walking straight lol. He's acting like his normal self and 9/10 injuries inside animals get can be taken care of at home and not a vet.
But of course, If we notice anything change In him we're going to take him.
He should feel privileged, he was the first one to have the first aid kit used on him! lol So I guess I'll keep you posted with all the boring details of moving and my doggies head. I should really go back to rummaging through our stuff. 2 weeks!!! Can't wait.

Sooo Yeah...

We got a house. Well, we should any ways. There was this house up for rent and we couldn't go see It until the weekend. And apparently there was some other lady who had just seen It and was really interested. The realtor was supost to give me a call back later Friday If she wanted It but she never did. So me being used to upsets figured she lost my number or wrote It down wrong and the house was taken.
But no! I called Saturday morning and she said the lady was still trying to decide so we drove on over to the place and was like almost immediatly(we were nice and let her do the whole realtor routine and talk and walk us through It lol) we just said yes how much do you want to hold It until next payday!
So, stupid us didn't even think to bring a check book ~sigh~ so we ended up having to go to her sons baseball game(which was actually fine because we met up with someone we know anyways to pass the time) So we handed her the holding money and our rent application and now we're just waiting for her to email us the lease agrement.
And that's where we are so far. And this Is where I'm getting a little nervous. She said she'd have It to us by Saturday night or Sunday morning at the latest, and It never came. Now I know she's busy and all and It most likely will come today but still, If you've read my past houseing posts, you'd see why I'm getting nervous, I just have no luck with this stuff.
I really hope nothing bad happened, we've already began making moving piles and planning out the house and telling everyone. I just don't think I could take having what I want so much taken away from me because of some stupid mistake.(I.E.-the lady who wanted It first actually said so first and paid already blah blah something like that I'm sure you get where I'm going)
So, I guess I'll keep you updated, I'm sure nothing wrong happened, I'm just getting stressed for no reason and the lease papers will come today. So, until then, I'm going to try to think happy knowing I finally get a house.(and knowing the douche bags upstairs are still going to be In apartments with someone living below them that wont take there shit Is a huge huge bonus)

O.O ~blink blink~ O.O

I'm still in shock over the good/odd weekend I've had.
First of all, my Internet got terminated because OH NOES!!!!!11!!1 I was caught seeding a movie I downloaded! What was my punishment? Oh, call this number and say "Hey turn my shizznit back on biotch." Simple. Yeah, that's gonna stop me from seeding a movie again. And what movie was this? Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone. I just had to have a Harry Potter marathon like, a month ago. And they just caught me. LOL Never mind the fact I seeded It for only the length of the movie and I also downloaded the other 4 Harry Potter's and like 3 other movies In the same day. No No, they only cared about the that one. Strike 1, 2 more, I'm out. Which doesn't matter anymore for the simple fact of:
I GOT A HOUSE!!!!!
Eeeeeee! I still don't know how It happened. After calling every single house in the newspaper, only 1 fit what we could afford and whatnot. When I called to make the appointment for Saturday, she told me someone else was very interested in the place, and she was supposed to give a yes or no to them by Friday night. Well, apparently that lady was still thinking It over and when me and my boyfriend got there Saturday afternoon to go see the house, It took us all of 5 minutes to say we want It. For one thing, someone was outside listening to music, and the second we walked inside and closed the door, we couldn't hear It at all. In and empty house, we couldn't hear the outside world. And why was this? It's an actual house. It's made of brick and stuccoed over. So Its thick, and an actual house! Not this cardboard shit with paint over It people make nowadays.
I just still can't believe It. I'm so happy!! But I'll have to write more on this later, we are off to do our Sunday hiking. So, have a great day everyone!

Cloverfield

*****SPOILER ALERT*****
If you haven't seen this film and actually want to, I suggest you don't read this post.


So the dvdrip download of this movie came out recently and I was able to grab It and have It finish In record time. (about 30 minutes to my surprise) Well, there was a big deal about this movie and we were excited to finally get to see It. Both of us were thoroughly disappointed.
First, my boyfriend Is a survival nut, and I've got the pleasure of learning all about It as well just by being around him. So since the first "big bang" hit In the movie he Immediately started spouting off all the things they did wrong. And sadly, so did I, but only In my head. In all honesty, they should of died within the first 10 minutes of the attack. And don't even get my started on the ending when there helicopter was grabbed and thrown, and OMG AMAZING the 3 douches In the back seat, one who should have already been dead just by bleeding out, lived while the 2 army guys with body gear and helmets and training, died. Oh, and how 80/100 of the army's missiles and such missed(fyi, that just doesn't happen anymore with our technologies nowadays)
And talk about huge disappointment with the monster. I mean, It was better for me to think of It as one of those funny caption pictures of a reeealllyy fat and ugly girl destroying Manhattan.(I know, I know, that's mean, but trust me, It did make the movie better) And I just can't seem to find the picture I'm talking about but It'll pop up again one day I'm sure.
Oh, and while we're on the monster, how about those mini monsters that dropped off of him? They're like, a knock off of Starship Troopers amiright? To make up for that, they could of at least let us see that one chick explode after she got bit, Instead of hiding It. ~sigh~
I'm not sure If the movie was ruined for me for the simple fact of they should have died within that first 10 minutes of the attack, but lucky for them, movie magic happened. I really don't feel like going through all the hundreds of times that they wouldn't have lived being as I just can't remember most of them, after seeing that end helicopter scene I was just, awed at the amount of...God I can't even think of the word! If you've seen It, you have to agree, you just have to. Oh, and just another fyi, the military pilots would of NEVER flown that helicopter In the same direction of the many missiles and monster, never...
So, ok, I do like the fact that It was an original idea(the dude "documenting" the whole thing(I don't see Blair Witch Project as something to ever be mentioned In the movie world so don't think about It lol) By doing that It did make It a watchable movie. It just wouldn't be as talked about as It was If It was made the regular movie way. I just wish they would of at least looked up some survivalist things on the Internets. It was just obvious the writer didn't do a lick of research on anything they put Into the movie, and It could of been more...realisitic?...If they did.
That's my 2 cents, like It or not :)

Lip Gloss


I've been addicted to chap sticks, lip glosses, lip sticks, you name It, since I was a little girl. I've pretty much screwed myself over big time because my lips have stopped moisturising themselves long long ago. I've tried just about everything under the sun and after seeing an add for these Wet Slicks Fruit Spritzers from CoverGirl, I figured "eh, sure, why not"
I looked at about a hundred reviews for the product out of boredom and everyone who tried It, loves It. So, obviously, It was my turn to try it.
I've been using It for about 4 days now and so far, I'm thoroughly pleased. True, It Is slightly sticky, but as long as you don't put gobs of It on, you won't even notice. And a lot of the reviews I read said It doesn't last long and you have to apply It a lot. Well...I call bullshit. Like I said, my lips hate me for the torture I'm always putting them through, and I don't have to reapply It unless I eat/drink and even then I don't always have to, I'm just used to doing It.
I'm not sure about the other flavors, but I just picked up the Lemon Splash one, and it certainly does smell and taste like It's name.
One thing I've found to be very helpful, no matter what you're using on your lips, Is to get out of the habit of pressing them together. That helps a lot with keeping It on your lips and not having to reapply or having It start to look and feel funny.(I have to admit though, I'm still trying to kick that habit myself and It's hard!)
So, yeah this Is my girlie post for the next few days lol. If you are looking for a new kind of lip gloss, I highly suggest this one. It's about...$5-6 dollars at my grocery store.
