Tee hee, whoops!

I love how that lasted a whole month!!! =P

Anyway, my recent boom of crafting has inspired me to come back... =D Maybe I'll share my life along with those pictures!

Anyway, I don't feel like playing catch up, so I'll just write about today:

UGH! =P I stayed up all night because I was so frustrated that I've been putting off getting my stuff from Baton Rouge and now I've caused a $200 fee to be charge to Chelsea. Bad Kim! So... now we're trying again, but it helps that some people are actually willing to help me out this time! Hopefully my crap will be out by today (tomorrow?) and we can get that fee cleared... Lord knows we can't pay for it!

So what was I doing last night? I was making a cowl, of course! What's a cowl? Well... I'm not entirely sure! ?I think it's kinda like a turtle neck sweater, minus the sweater... A scarf that you don't have to wrap. For whom? Well, all I know is her name is Abby. Why am I making things for people I don't know? Well...

I've joined this site called Swap-Bot. Basically, you sign up for swaps where you make something, could be anything depending on the swap, and mail it off to your partner. It's pretty nifty. I've done 4 and am about to finish 4 or 5 more once I make a trip to the post office tomorrow. I'm a little obsessed with it and I'm sure it will just turn into another thing to keep me from studying! =P


Things I hope to complete by Sunday, August 2, 2009:

• Send out those swaps!
• Have taken care of the whole storage mess
• Have at least gotten pricing for my new hard drive
• Clean up my room
• Gone to Grace's at least twice
• Have made at least 2 more entries! =P
• Have a frikkin housing assignment... C'mon, LSU!
  

On the road again...

So I'm on the bus bound for Baton Rouge... We're in Buffalo, Tx right now. I should arrive at LSU around 5:45am... So until then, I'll be crocheting my hat and...flirting? What? Maybe more on that later, but nothing major, I promise!

The last day... For real!

Lazy Sunday!
J/K!!!

Woke up at 9.30am to go to church. Saw a whole bunch of people I've missed! It was a great day with a great service!

I came home and I don't remember what all we did, but I'm sure it has to do with crocheting! I'm STILL working on that hat! I hope I finish it before I leave... So I can wear it while I crochet something else... This shall be the first bus ride where I will NOT sleep. =D....Maybe

Momma dided my hurr today! I'm not sure how it looks......because it's still in rollers.....but it's longer! And will probably be pimpin when I take it down.

So... Now I'm about to crochet a little more and then maybe go to sleep... I should actually pack! But I don't wanna go!!!! =\ But I've got to. Oh well.

I love you guys! See you Spring Break!!!

<3

=D

Momma and I are going to a slumber party together. Yay for more time with my best friend!

Oh... I took apart a(n ugly) sweater to make a hat. It's still in progress... I may have enough to make more than one. Who wants one?

Uncle Philip is watching Christopher while we party, so we'll be back some time tomorrow... huzzah!
Other than that, haven't done much today... if anything! Just the sweater... Then ate, showered, and got ready to go. So hopefully tomorrow will be a better post!

=D <3

Crochet Galore!

So I've decided to skip the whole "finishing the room" thing and start on my layout...
And then my plans were foiled when I couldn't find the brush I wanted... How odd!
So I guess I'll be finishing up my room... But I'm almost done anyway... =D

Today I did almost absolutely NOTHING! I took Chris school... Fought with him for 20 minutes! Oh man! Now I know how Momma feels!!!! When I got back, though, I went straight to sleep. I was SO exhausted... I've GOT to get to bed earlier... This is driving me INSANE! I've been sleeping my day away instead of doing my work... And I'd love to have a clean room to come back to...whenever that is.

Momma and I called the financial aid office today, talked to a few people, and we got work study!!! So that will help out some! Huzzah! Although I still don't want to go back... =\

Then I finished the frog I was crocheting and gave it to Momma for her Christmas... =] Finally got around to it! She loved it (she said), and I think it's precious. I also made a tennis ball for Chris and something else for a friend for Christmas... I'll post a picture of THAT after I give it to them... But until then, I'll putt up the pictures of the other 3 projects I made this month... That's right! FOUR crocheted projects this month. HAHA! I'm off the hook for now!
And... I wound another ball of yarn... =D Only... 1 or 2 more to go! =D

I did some laundry... About to do some more... And then I'll be done with my room!!!

I can't remember what else I did... Oh yeah... I spelled 'lottery' 'lautory'... But SHHHHHHHH! Don't tell! =D

So yeah... I've been listening to this song for a while. I don't know why, but I feel comfortable with it.
Don't ask me to elaborate, because I doubt I can...
But... I tend to think about my spiritual life when I listen to it.

But moving on...
So... I've completed my first crochet piece of the month... It's a fuzzy hat! That I love! I'll put up a picture late. I'm currently working on a project now that I hope to finish tonight... But until I do, I can't tell you what it is because it's FOR somebody!!!

So today... Kind of begins with last night. I hung out with Travis and his friends again. How amazing they are! Travis made this trivia game for all of us to play, and it was so well done! Not too easy, not too hard. No wonder he's so cool. =D After I got home from that, Momma and I stayed up until 4am just talking and stuff. So we didn't wake up until some time around 2pm.... which was really weird because my mom does not sleep in! But we still had fun all the same. But... we didn't do anything today. The record player we found on the curb doesn't work (=\) so... I'm still looking for one, if anybody happens to have any connections....

I haven't done any work on my room today... But I'm about to finish up this laundry... I've got another load or two until I've washed all the clothes I own! How great would that be?

Chris and I watched 2 movies together today! We saw Meet Dave and Horton Hears A Whoo. Oh man! Great movies!!!! I'm not sure if it was because I'm an emotional girl (at the moment) or because they were just that great, but I held back tears (to avoid the "Kimmi, why are you crying!?"). But I highly recommend them to everybody.

I balled 4 skeins of yarn today... It was really fun! I had made a slipper out of this blue yarn and it was too wide, so I decided to take it apart and redo it, but I had just now gotten to it. So I pulled it apart then balled the excess yarn, but I kept going! And before I knew it, the whole skein was balled! It was so easy... So I decided to do 3 more... Just little ones... Each one looks prettier than the one before it. I figured out a nice little system. But I think I'll ball the rest when I have the time. Maybe on the bus ride to LSU.

Speaking of LSU... I hate them. I hate them all! =\ Long story short, they say I don't qualify for any grants or special financial aid because my mom's income is too high. Oh, what's that, you say? You thought my mom doesn't have an income? Well you're absolutely correct! LSU is just being one big ball of stupid *** *****!!!!

le sigh....

Just... Today's been kind of a downy day... Like Jeneill says, "Today was really chill minus all the frustration and angst".

=P <3

Happy New Year!

So welcome to part of my new year's resolution!
This is actually a stale resolution from last year, but I never actually got around to it. =P
So NOW I've decided to do it.

I don't have many this year.

1. Keep a blog for a year (not necessarily every day, but at least 5 times a week)
2. Crochet 2 things every month
3. Keep my legs CLOSED. =D
4. Learn something new (out side of class) everyday

Thought I'd keep it simple! So maybe this time I'd stick to it.

But, I must give Jeneill her props for gettin the ball rollin! She's such an awesome inspiration. You should definitely check her out!

So... It's new years! And of course I partied! Travis invited me to hang with his friends at his house (in Plano! TALK ABOUT A DRIVE!). We played a wicked game of Landmines, danced, took some photo ops! So much fun! I made some friends I surely hope to keep!

And now I'm home. I just fed Bartholimew and helped my mom get her phone numbers back on her new phone. Now I need to shower and do my hair so I can crochet in peace! I'm making another hat!

Love ya!
