Hey everyone, long time no see

I'm enjoying my Thanksgiving break.  I went to the mall today to look for a gift for the secret santa exchange, but I didn't see anything that I wanted to purchase.  I'm really picky. :/

My hair:  It feels TOO soft and almost limp.  I think I overconditioned.  I used Paul Mitchell's "The Conditioner" and it worked too well, I guess

Since I joined LL, I've been very perceptive of other people's hair.  Even though my friends have BSL hair, it does not look healthy at all.  I told them to try to give up the hot ironing, but they won't.  When we went to a party on Saturday, I was the only one with wavy hair.  I got a few compliments on it.  It was great

I think that's it, for now.  I've been trying to de-stress and eat better during this week.  I finally got 8 hours of sleep!

Getting the final touches ready with my secret santa gift.  I really hope my person likes it!  I really like it...I wanted to get one, too....

School --- whoa.  It's kickin' my butt!  I hope I can just pull through a B average.  I need to at least get that.  It's hard though, I had straight A's last semester.  It's a bummer.

Hair --- whoa.  It's very frizzy.  My bangs are getting to the length they need to be, but I wonder if I want to grow them out or not.

Boyfriend --- whoa.  He had this girl in his wallet and he told me that it was "just a friend."  Well, I find out that it is his ex-girlfriend.  I was a bit bummed about that, but more disappointed.  I gave him a wallet of my photo, and he didn't put my picture in.  When I talked to him about it, he seemed like he didn't really care.  However, he might feel really badly inside.  I'm trying not to sweat the small stuff.

Edit:  Clarified some stuff.

Oh gosh, that's harsh.  *hug* 

The pic may not mean anything to him anymore - I have pics of ex's in albums, and found an old school ID in a drawer the other day.  I just forgot they I have them, and I don't ever feel compelled to look at them.  Maybe it's the same with him.  Even so, I can imagine how that must have hurt.  I hope that he takes the pic out.  Or put yours in!

Secret Santa gift was sent out yesterday at 11 am.  I sent it priority, so it should be in its owner's hands Friday or Monday. 

I got my secret santa gift!!!  It is a bright, fun, fuzzy, and WARM set of gloves!  I don't have a camera that's in operation right now, but I will take a photo soon.

Thank you for the gloves, Anais!!  It was such a thoughtful gift.  They help so much when I have to walk from class to class.

Anais:  Yeah, it has been snowing the last three days.  Mostly on-and-off.  It is snowing right now!

Today went by quickly.  I'm trying to plan out a study schedule for finals...but I haven't followed it as well as I should.  I have to finish the dust jacket for my book project, make a special edition DVD box set for a movie of my choice (I chose Interview With a Vampire.) Write a 6-page paper, and study for two finals.  Phew!  So much stuff.

Hair:  It can easily get thrown into a bee-butt bun!  Yay!  I've been wearing it like that for the last week or so.  It is starting to get lighter in color, too.  I think the color deposit is 70-80% gone.  I still find renegade black hairs.

I have a craving for garlic bread.  I ordered some Domino's.  Two more weeks until school is out!  The weeks are flying by.

Thank you so much!

for the...

7-FOOT GLITTERY PURDY SCARFLET It's knee-length on me! I braided it into my hair today, and not only did it look quite cool, but it also made my hair feel like tailbone length or longer. I'll load pictures tomorrow hopefully, and thanks so much!

I've been busy preparing for finals.  I have to finish a Special Edition DVD set, along with studying for two finals.

My type teacher is allowing us to do revisions, but I just don't think I can fit it all into my busy schedule.  I also -truly- gave the projects my all.  I don't know if I can think of a better solution for one of them ~___~

I think I am going to go ice skating with my boyfriend for an hour or so.  It is only $1 to rent a pair of skates.  I'm going to fall quite a bit, but it's so much fun to try.

Moonchild:  I didn't fall!!     My boyfriend taught me how to T-stop (it took a good hour to learn it.)  The rental skates were not very good -- and they hurt my feet quite a bit.  But other than that, it was fun!

Finals: I took my first one today.  I think I got in the A/B range!  If there's a curve, it will definately be an A.  Woo!

I have another final on Wednesday.  I have so much to review! >__<  But I should do okay -- I hope!  My final critique for my image making class is Thursday.  I also redid the "day" project for those of you who remember.  I completely redrew it.  I'll repost that sometime soon.



I learned so much in the class, but it really took its toll on me.  I ran out of steam at the end of it.  My book cover isn't what I wanted it to be, but the interior is great.  My sister's really going to like it.

Hair:  It feels -- rubbery.  I have been trying to prolong time between hair rinses and clarifying, but I think it's time to get it clean.  I need to catch up on sleep.  Finals week is so rough...and it's only Monday!
