okay... so maybe i haven't posted in a while but i think you will live!!!!

anyways still haven't finished sweater or entrelac scarf but maybe tomorrow i will post progress and pics of the two projects i have finished and completed(both my own patterns and were started and finished in a 6 hour time frame)

anyways tomorrow one of my projects i will be posting is a test pattern so if anyone wants to try it out you can! and the name of it is, drumroll please,................ you just have to wait and find out! gotcha huh?

the other project i still have to write up a pattern for and my lucky ducky friends gets both of them for her 16th b-day (after all, she was my inspiration.) so it would only be fair.

oh man... guess what? it started warming up and the snow started melting here, so you figure it wouldn't snow anymore here, right? guess what it decided to do today? frozen rain and snow and neither of them are fun to drive in... yep thats right i passed my permit test first time around so anyways i have got to go lay down because my sinuses have been acting up the last two days oh and i have a job interview monday so wish me luck okay?

It is only friday? Why me? I am so bored!

well anywayz any ideas on what kind of afghan i should do for my scrap ghan?

hopefully tomorrow i can go shopping with my friend bcuz she got her license yesterday but the only problem is i have to work from 5-8 and i forgot all about it

slowly but surely i am getting that sweater done! but i all i have left to do is the collar and the front of it and sew the seams and do the edging so i might not have it done the weekend maybe next weekend though

yay! I am sticking to my promise of posting as mucho as possible so far i think my posts have only been 3 days apart so lets see if i can squish more together....
ttyl,

tired....

2007-01-09T13:35:00.000-08:00

no school for six days!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyways i am pretty mucha pooped from sadiez's party saturday... sunday i ran on three hours of sleep and pretty much crashed at 8:30 and I crashed at 8:30 last night toooo so yeppers that is how my weekend went

did you know? that every I talked to said it is physically impossible to get a 4.0 gpa unless you are in a weighted class (weighted classes run off a 5.0 gpa scale so it is easier to pass) so basically my parents are going to have to live with my 3.9 gpa till i start weighted classed next year (french 3 and advanced alegebra)

anywho i need to get that sweater done i also think i am going to do a stash yarn afghan to see how wacky it comes out (i really need to use up some of that yarn i have) it seems like everytime i use more some more yarn keeps appearing out of nowhere which is really strange wellz i will talk to my homedoggies later lol!

so basically today is going to be pretty boring~~ i have to wrap sadiez's present(wheres the d*** duct tape) and get my stuff ready for tonight and i have to work from 5-8

the good news though is... are you ready?!
1. The guy I like might like me back

New Years Resolutions

2007-01-02T08:02:00.000-08:00

That's right, there is 16 of them. Ain't I just great? But to spare you I will only tell you a few...

1. Lose 10 pounds.
2. Talk to Andy.
3. Stop crushing on Andy.
4. Save $100 in quarters ONLY.[I already have $1.25, I found it when I was cleaning my room]
5. Get a job.
6. Get a car.
7. Try to go to crossroads every Wednesday and Saturday that they are open.
8. [Oh crap, there is 17 of them.] Try to get on blogger 5/7 days a week.
9. [Okay, so there is 18] Learn to purl and make a knitted sweater.
10. Finish 2 UFOs.
11. Finish 3 new projects.

And thats about all I can remember off the top of my head. They are kind of boring and a couple are challenges[number 4 is a bit weird, but a challenge nonetheless] but i want to complete 15/18 of my new years resolutions. And I only have 364 days left. YAY!

guess who?

2007-01-02T07:54:00.000-08:00

Okay, this sounds really stupid, but i forgot to take pictures of the scarves before i wrapped them and gave them to my friends and then i forgot to take the freaking camera to school. So i am very sorry that you didn't get to see them and its all my fault.

But on the other hand 2 of my new years resolutions were:
1. Finish 2 UFOs and
2.Finish 3 new projects.

So hopefully I get around to that, except i think i only have one UFO, so number on might be a letdown, so if I don't have two UFOs, then I will create another one. Ha, I WIN, stupid new years resolutions. That will teach them. LOL! So tell me how was your Christmas and hopefully (don't keep your fingers crossed) I will be back later.

also i will probably post pics of the scarves before i give them to my friends so you will get to see all of them when they are all done

thats about it for now ttyl

It's done

2006-08-23T17:01:00.000-07:00

The afghan that drove up the wall is finally finished. I am so glad because it was almost three weeks late as my friends b-day present.

Needless to say, the armwarmer test pattern was a success!!! And I am still trying to figure out how to get it published but I will keep trying!

Right now I am designing a purse so that is going to be awesome-0! The linig I chose for it is purple with kitties. It is going to be so adorable.

Tomorrow I start school and I am so happy that for eight hours I get to be away from my brother! Me and my friend went and sat up our lockers today so they are already to go!!! That is it for now talk to ya foolz later! J/K Love ya

Ultra special blah blah blah #3

2006-08-19T08:21:00.000-07:00

I told you I was going to start posting more often! I still haven't updated my myspace though. That might take some time before I start doing that. Anyhoo I didn't have to go and get my physical done because mom read in the paper this morning that sophomores and up don't have to get physicals this year, but then again our school does do random drug test screenings which is really weird but can you blame them, we have alot of crackheads at our school. Last year a police officer found drugs in somebodys locker. That is the thing about Rock Falls that makes our school look really bad so I just try to ignore it. Some people can really be stupid but that is their problem.

Only 15 more rows to go on my afghan so hopefully I will get it done, I am going to keep my fingers crossed. I have got to go now.

Ultra special blah blah blah #2

2006-08-18T12:28:00.000-07:00

I promise no more going without posting for a really long time but I trying to keep updated three different blogs at once: one blogger, one xanga, and one myspace. So I haven't updated in a while I'm sorry...

Well I finally have one of my patterns written up and ready for testing, anyone who is interested let me know and you can test it to! Here is a couple of pics of it.

Hopefully tonite I can get my filet done and post pics of it I have between 17-19 rows left which isn't too bad.

I have also finished a cross stitch that my card-a-week partner sent me! I will show you a pic of that too. She also sent me a pink "M" which is now stuck to my mirror.

Right now I am involved in a crochet buddy cal that I started. It is called pillow fight and it is crocheted pillows. I thought crocheting pillows would be a cool idea since I am getting ready to redo my room but I didn't want to do it by myself so I started a crochet buddy thing... Tabby, Linda, Thresea, and Pam.

Well that is it for today besides the fact that I start school Aug. 24th. I have g2g now and update my other blogs!!!!

Ultra special blah #1

2006-07-20T06:07:00.000-07:00

Okay, I know I haven't updated in a while so I guess I can do that. I have been working on a filet afghan. The pattern is called allure and some of you guys who are in calpals know what I am talking about. So here is a picture of what i have gotten done so far! I also have been detaaseling so I am super tired right now! I also have been working on arm warmers but... they are not done yet, I still have one to go... Hopefully in a couple of weeks, I will be going to Northpark mall in Davenport so I can go shopping Woot I have g2g now

BonBon(ha our group leader gave me that name in calpals)

I have only been crocheting for 3 years and in that span have only created 10 projects but now that I am getting older I am getting more into it. Right now I am working on a purse that involves a herringbone half double crochet that is a pain in my butt. It is from the happy hooker book. I also made the yeehaw lady hat out of that book. But anyway here is some pictures of my progress and the yarn!!!

Well leave me lots of comments. J/k you don't have to. Tah-Tah for now!!!!
