Home for the holidays

Yay for not taking forever to update!!!!!!
(Pictures of the furisode are on my to-do list, but right now, there are other things that I working on)

So, its November 27th , Black Friday! For most people, that means going crazy at the local mall, but I have crazy of a different kind- Christmas crazy! Since my family is Christian, we celebrate Christmas every year. This year so shaping up to be a very subdued Christmas, my mother has already finished putting up the outdoor decorations, and in just about an hour, I'm going to start on the indoor ones. I love decorating for the holidays, and while putting our 7.5 foot tree is a lot of work, once its decorated and the gifts are all piled up underneath it, there is nothing more beautiful!

JET

Ahh! It's been so long since I updated!!!!
 EDIT: Obviously, I didn't make it through. I'm trying to keep a positive face about it, and moving on. I can't really say if I will ever apply again, I just don't know right now.
You can read more below, its mostly unrelated. Promise I don't get moody and sad after the cut.

Recent buys!!!

I've been a busy girl lately! I have been kept really busy by all my classes, but I have had time to find some great things! I've been treated by my mom to several (lots) of cute tops- pictures to come! and I've also do some shopping on my own. I've been working on improving my complexion lately, so I've bought Beauty Friends masks, new moisturizer that fights acne, and a skin lightener to help turn my skin back into what it was in high school. Why is it the moment we start trying to look out best, our skin goes haywire on us? My skin was beautiful all through high school, but college has changed that. Dark spots under my eyes, pores over my nose, and acne every time I get stressed. You can set a calendar by my skin- if its time for exams, my skin is worse than any 16 year old.

Wii!!

Two nights ago, my mom surprised me big time and bought a Wii! She got it for the whole family, but still, I have been having sooo much fun playing with it! We only the sports pack that comes with the Wii and Wii Fit right now, but I will soon be on the hunt for new games... Right now, I'm sore from doing all sorts of crazy moves on it- tennis and the hula hoop games have got my good!

I did drop one of my classes, I just couldn't keep up with the course work it was assigning me. It hurts every time that I have to drop a class, this isn't the first time I've done that, but every time it feels like I'm some massive failure that won't ever graduate. The good thing is that I won't have to load up on classes next semester, I was only going to have 12 hours before I drop this one, so I'll have 15 now.

I didn't go to my hair appointment after all, I ended up calling and telling them that I couldn't go... in the end, I chickened out...

I'm such a bad girl...

School is in full swing, and I'm wayy over worked! It sucha good thing that I don't have a "real" job to take up my time!
With just one semester left after this one, I am defiatly in a race to the finish now. I had a oh SHIT! moment today when I realized that I had missed a deadline to turn in a paper. Much begging and groveling is to now to be done. I hope to turn it in tomorrow.

In much more fashionable news, I have an appointment on Friday for a hair extension consultation! Only problem is that I have two midterms and a 20 page paper due next week, in addition to other stuff that has to be done. I'm not sure that I'm going to go- really depends on if I can get LOTS of work done tomorrow. I'm going to the library and just spending the day there, as long as I can stay productive. That 20 page paper? havent really started it.....yikes. AS of right now, I'm going to be spending my Friday at the library too, instead of the hair salon. It wouldn't be so bad if the salon wasn't and hour and a half away.

In international news, my sister boarded a plane this morning to move to Korea. I'm happy for her, but sad because one of my best friends just moved to another country...
