Slowly starting to check things off the list of stuff I decided (while taking a break from my paper) that I wanted to do once I had free time again. I've crossed out the stuff I've done already. Here's hoping I get to it all!

Over the last few days I have done a lot of scrapbooking for my SLU album, and found and fell in love with a pottery studio in Webster Groves called "Kreuger's Pottery." It's been a good week for art. I made three great pieces at the studio yesterday, and hopefully tonight or tomorrow I'll decide how I'd like to decorate them before I go back again ( Read more... )

So today I went crazy organizing my desk area and many of the drawers and piles in and around it. I found my ceramics tools, and a lot of Casey's theatre stuff. I organized all the programs and tickets etc into a neat box so if I continue a scrapbook for him it's all in one place, and if I don't, all the keepsakes are collected. I have a huge urge ( Read more... )

I hope everyone had a relaxing, happy Christmas. I certainly did. Today I woke up, got ready, ate egg bake (traditional holiday breakfast, and delicious! I really must make it.) and opened presents with my family. I got my mom a circular yoga mat (a new yoga trend Julia alerted me to last year) and I think she really liked it. Got my Dad a set of ( Read more... )

Not a photo scrapbook, but the scrapbook my Mom had started when I first went to Cornell, to keep things like my acceptance letter, my choir concert programs, my deans list letters, academic awards, culture show and play programs, symposium ribbon, nso awards, and the fake copy of ( Read more... )

So tomorrow is my 22nd birthday. Wow. It's amazing how these things just sort of sneak up on you. I really haven't been thinking much of it all week. I'm excited because I'll have a morning of gifts and eggs with my family, then I'll chill at D.West with some friends in the afternoon, have sushi with my family, and then go birthday bowling. What ( Read more... )

After a wonderful morning of scrapbooking (today's pages included winter stuff, Dark Purple, and the minnesota trip) Mom, Sam, and I went to AE to make some returns, exchanges, and purchases. Between the 2 returns, 1 exchange, a $50 gift card, and 3 cash card coupons, I got $200 worth of really cute new clothes (pajama pants, new khakis, 2 pairs of ( Read more... )

Woke up early with a phone call from my Casey on Christmas morning. As a result I woke up happy, hours before my siblings. When they finally woke up we got straight to presents. I was excited to open my own, but honestly much happier to see how the gifts I had gotten other people were received ( Read more... )
