Since I’m not working nor am I in beauty school yet, my sleeping schedule has been wack. Until Dec 14th [school], I have all the time in the world to do whatever I’ve been wanting to do.

Playing video games even longer [hours & hours of Rockband 2, WET, CODMF2, AC2].
Playing with Adobe Illustrator [made a design I pushed to the BF for his work, kids are gonna love it].
Playing with nail designs more.
Preparing more semi-homemade goods [gnocchi with a marinara sauce topped w/ basil, turkey & artichoke stuffed jumbo pasta shells w/ arrabbiata sauce topped with Italian cheeses].
Definitely baking more [meringue cookies, sugar cookies, chocolate marshmallow cookies, blueberry crumble bars, my own yellow sheet cake recipe, which turned out more like a chiffon cake...I didn't have butter or shortening so I messed around].
I’m surprised I didn’t gain any weight.

Tonight…well, today [I woke up at 4:30pm yesterday, now it's close to 8am], I’ve been picking up my vexeling more. Remember that Natalie Portman vexel I was working on? I thought I start working on it again. I always do this, I’ll start a vexel, wait like half a year to come back to it. Lol. I’m so slow.

So here’s an update on it. [Click to enlarge]

And again…the original pick:

Gave her eye makeup a little more smokiness. :P And I gave it a watermark. Lol.
I don’t want to just leave it as is. I wanna turn it into something bigger. I’ll see. Gotta finish up the hair first. Kinda dreading it. Might even do something else with the hair.
I think my skills on vectoring/vexeling are improving a little bit.

Back in high school and when I would actually attend it, the subjects I loved were math, art, and writing. I’m not a great writer, but I’m not that bad either. I know in my blog, I have lots of punctuation errors, paragraphs errors, no indentations, and sentence fragments, but whatever. Currently, I like to use brackets as parentheses because I think they look cuter.
I didn’t make this blog to improve my writing skills. But even so, I can’t help but reread everything that I’ve typed to make sure it sounds good to me. Revising sucks. Hated that part of writing. Still though, can’t help it. I have to revise. Plus, I do want you guys to understand what I’m saying.
I feel like I’m just blabbing right now. [Editing right now.]

You want blabbing? I’ll give you blabbing.

Random thoughts in my head, due to lack of sleep »

I’m a Mac. I don’t think I’ll ever switch to a PC again.

I miss my long hair. I will never chop it off like that again. Only until I become a mom. Lol. Maybe not even then. My hair grows pretty fast, but not fast enough.

I’ve only worn makeup three times since I’ve moved down here to Florida. That was…Nov. 8th. My skin is getting a big break.

Did a little training with Cooper today. He has separation anxiety. He’s a lot better than a year ago. The BF went to pick up a vacuum cleaner and food. I took a break from vexeling. Grabbed my Nokia. Went in and outside the apartment three times. Each time increasing the amount of time I would stay out there. I googled alot about dogs with separation anxiety so I thought I try it.
First time, 30 seconds. No bark or whining.
Second time, one minute. Still no barking and whining.
Third time, I thought I’d be a bit more daring. Ten minutes! No barking or whining.
I think I could have stayed out longer, but I didn’t want to go that far. While I was waiting, I walked ninja-styled around to our patio area to peek through the window. Got him on camera for a few secs. of just laying in front of the door, waiting. Usually, he would be barking, whining, and scratching the door. So proud of him :]

I think Cooper needs a buddy.

I’m going to make biscuits and sausage gravy later. I love biscuits. Haven’t decided on making the biscuits homemade or not.

I enjoy waxing people’s eyebrows. I might have mentioned that before. I’m pretty damn good at it to. I have been told many times from men, women, and young girls, “You are so gentle.” Lol. Really? I do try to be.

I need to workout to get rid of my cellulite! Looks like I’m going to bust out with my Turbo Jam and Jackie Warner videos.

I wanna do yoga. I want to get my flexibility back. I can do the side splits right and left. Not so easily, but I can. I need to stretch more.

Geez…I’m going to be 25 in January. Weird…

I need more Havaiana flip-flops.

I haven’t sang in a long time. I mean, really sing. When I had a car, that’s where I sang the most. All out. Until I came to a red light and cars were around. I’d stop. Then I pick it back up when it’s green light. :P In community high school, the whole school [like 100ish ppl] went to the gym for a karaoke break. People would write in their requests and Mr. Rainwater would call ‘em up. We were all laughing and singing along. Then, to my surprise, he calls my name. What the heck? Who put my name in. My cousin, Sandi. I didn’t even know what song she picked out until it started playing. “I Turn To You,” by Christina Aguilera. I was gonna kill her. As I sang the song, I didn’t hear one word from the crowd. I stopped a little early, and the crowd roared. :] It was a great feeling. I never really talked in school, so it was a surprise to them. I would love to take voice lessons. I’m good, but I want to be great at singing.

blah. blah. blah…
Finally go to bed.
