It Is Over

The semester is officially over as of 1 hour and 5 minutes ago.  You may ask what I am going to do now.  Well, I will clean my car inside and out, then I will take a nap.  Then I will go to work which will be followed by coming home and taking a nap.  After my nap I will get online and waste a few hours of my day only to be followed with wasting a few hours in front of the TeeVee.  Then, I will go to bed.  Then I will wake up.  Then I will eat breakfast and take a nap. You see where this is going?

For real though, now I prepare for Ghana.  I buy lots of things, get a packing list together, and get all my paperwork photocopied.  This is gonna be awesome!

P.S.  This post will be followed by a cuter post in a day or so. Over and out-

In Response to

Because I am lazy and busy, I left my blog unattended and somewhat of a ghastly color for the past however long. I changed it just for you people, whoever you are that read my blog. Hopefully it isn't so troublesome to the eye. But lets just take a look at what I did to get it here okay?
This one is cute, but goodness knows the flowers wouldn't do what I wanted. There they are just floating in the middle of my name.


Cute colors: weird layout and can't read a thing



Um....can you get any more patterned than this?


Loved the colors of the middle of the header, but couldn't read anything so it had to go. So sad.



Loved this background until a certain someone said "I love that green poo smear on the side"


Layers upon layers of green


So there ya have it. Can you believe? It took me two hours to figure all of this out cuz I'm computer literate. I was also helped in a big way by Bri and also this Bri

Wanna Know?

Wanna know what I hate?  When people leave all the clothes they tried on in the dressing room.  Then you have to work around it and put their clothes on hangers as well as your own.  
Wanna know what I love?  When the clothes left in the dressing room are just your size.  Then you can try everything on without being bogged down by looking around.  Someone else did it for you and you didn't even have to pay them!

Wanna know what I hate?  I absolutely abhor changing my sheets.  Don't ask me why, I have no idea.
Wanna know what I love?  Getting into my bed right after I change my sheets.  The sheets are crisp, cold, and clean without a wrinkle in them. 

Wanna know what I hate?  The smell of banana bread.  There, I said it.  I HATE the smell of banana bread.  To me it smells like death.
Wanna know what I love? The very top part of the loaf of banana bread.  It is still a teensy gooey but still has that "crust" texture.  It's basically the best of both worlds in bread form.

Wanna know what I hate?  Flossing my teeth.  There is just something about putting string between each space in my mouth that sounds incredibly monotonous, droll, and tedious.
Wanna know what I love? Brushing my teeth.  If it was up to me, I would have a toothbrush in my mouth all day everyday.  I could brush and brush and brush and never get tired of it.

Wanna know what I hate? Luggage.  The most bulky awkward stuff in the world.  Also: the most necessary.
Wanna know what I love?  Packing Lists, thats what.  Something in me jumps up and down with glee whenever I am presented with a packing list.  It could be the excitement of going away for awhile.  It could also be the excitement of allowing my OCD tendencies to take over so that my underwear are folded just so in the lower right-hand corner of my suitcase.  My socks are placed in a circular pattern around my panties if you were wondering.  

Wanna know what I hate?  Crocs.  Simply put: they are the ugliest shoe ever.  End of story.
Wanna know what I love?  Crocs, dang it. Once, when I was an ignorant fool, I swore I would never ever "be a croc person".  Right? Crocs are not to be worn out.  They are too casual.  Well, one time I found a bright orange pair for like 5 bucks.  So I bought them for work thinking that they would be strictly for work.  Well, they are the comfiest things ever, and now I say in [comfortable] shame, I am a croc person.  I wear them to class, I wear them to work, I wear them to the mall.  Crocs got to me and I succumbed. Woe is me.

Wanna know what I hate?  Having a huge-long list of things to do that will inevitably never get done. 
Wanna know what I love?  Checking things off a list.  I dunno why, but it is one of the most satisfying things ever.  It is my way of getting back at my list of things to do.  Thats right.....I marked clean room off my list.  HA stupid list.  I showed you!

Graffiti

Something I have always loved to look at is graffiti on train cars. For my photo class, I decided to take pictures of it for my final project. I found some awesome cars and I couldn't get enough of the graffiti. Taking pictures has only fed my addiction and I am afeared it might become too much to handle. Here is what I don't get about graffiti like this: it is destruction of property, but personally, I think it adds to the appearance. Think how boring this car would be without such lovely colors painted on. I'll tell you what, there is certainly talent in graffiti industry!
I know ya can't really tell, but this one is stinkin' cute. It is yellow on the bottome and then has bubbles going up into a purple layer that fades into green. It has bright pink arrows coming out the sides. Oh Nikki, whoever you are, you're a darling



Love love love this one. Way intricate and I love the color scheme ha-ha
Isn't this just absolutely darling? Pink and purple with blue and white bubbles!
