New Apt!

So it has finally happened....two weeks ago actually...

I HAVE MY OWWWWWN PLACE!!!

I am completely in love with it and will be even more in love when I get the last pieces of furniture I want!

For now take a look at my lil abode...

Here is the living room...



And the hallway back to the rest of the place...



Little laundry room...



Bathroom...



Bedroom...




Stuffed closet...



Little tiny kitchen...



Dining area with cute lil table...



And another view of the living room from the dining area...



Some of the pics are dark so you will just have to come over and see it all for yourself!

Who wants to come visit?!?!?!

So Cute!

My friend Megan showed me this video yesterday and I think it's adorable!

How much fun would this be to walk into instead of the step...pause...step...pause of the normal ceremony!



Love IT!!

Yummy in my Tummy!

So last night I headed out with Kaylan to this fine festival...

Jazz & Rib Fest Pictures, Images and Photos

DELICIOUS!!!

I love me some sweet corn on the cob....rib samplers...fried things on sticks...AWESOME people watching...meeting some new peeps to hang out with...great weather...good music...

All around a completely fabulous time...

Only downfall...

I missed Annie's Christmas in July party...I was all scheduled to go and then alcohol got the best of me and I couldn't get back to my car that was parked in the middle of no where...I feel terrible...

Come September my friends and I will all be separated again...even internationally separated! We won't get to see each other nearly as much as we want to...

Stupid growing up!

FURNITURE!!!

Let it just be known that my couch and dining table have now arrived...

I sit here upon my new couch typing away and I must say I am very pleased with my purchase!

My lil apt is coming along very nicely and I cannot wait for the day that it is fully decorated and feels like home!!

Disappointed...

So the day finally arrived...

I got to the theater at 9pm to wait in line and save spots for my fellow movie goers...

I watched the whole movie and was quite satisfied...

Until the end...

Sooooo disappointed!! I couldn't believe that left so much out of the ending!

I won't ruin it for people that haven't seen it but if you have recently read the book or remember the ending from the book just be prepared for something a lil different....and not better in my opinion!

Still glad I saw it though!

Happy 25th to MEEEE!!

Welp my 25th birthday has come and gone...

I got me new license...which is kinda silly and pink and I'm not sure how I feel about it...

The BEST part of my birthday this year was celebrating at The Big Bang...

My new favorite place in the world

Mostly because of this guy...



A super adorable completely amazing fabulous piano player there.

My fave pics of the night of course then would be theses two...




Some other close faves...







I love birthdays...my friends...piano bars...cupcakes...dancing...and acting like a fool sometimes!!

Bombs Over Baghdad

No no I'm not going to make a political post...

Or a post about Outkast....

This is about the new drinking game made up by Stephanie, Courtney, Annie and I over 4th of July weekend

Needed:
One deck of cards....joker included
4 people
lots of beer
awesome music
a good table

How to Play:
One person is dealer...and this rotates each game cuz being dealer kinda sucks

Each player chooses a suit to be (I'm Diamonds, Stephanie is Hearts, Courtney is Spades and Annie is Clubs)

Shuffle the cards and keep the joker in the deck

The dealer flips over cards one at a time pausing in between (so the person can drink)

If the card flipped is your suit grab it fast and take a drink

If the card flipped is NOT your suit, but you have the same number already in your suit you can put your card on top of the one flipped.

When this happens you get to punch the person who didn't grab their card fast enough in the face and their card goes back in the deck...they should also drink a lot...

You should probably take a picture of the person getting punched in the face

When the joker is flipped everyone must yell "Bombs Over Baghdad!!" The last one to finish must drink...a lot

If someone starts talking shit about someone else or their cards and they are wrong....or they lay down the wrong card on top of another one they get their hair pulled...and they have to drink

The game should last until at least a case of beer is gone...

If anyone wants to play that is not Annie, Courtney, Stephanie, or I...you need to call us and ask us if you can use our suits

You are allowed to call a "texting time out"

Smoke breaks are allowed if needed

You should probably play some really awesome America music in the background

Lovely game I say!!

Independance Day 2K9

Well my friends this 4th of July weekend was spectacular!

All the way from an early pool day Friday with Pope, Courtney, Annie and special appearances by Shaffe, Kloss and Wendy to seeing The Proposal tonight!!

I just put over 200 pics on my computer and plan to post them to Facebook tomorrow...

And put some of my faves on here!

For now let me give you the July 4th 2009 Top 10 List we came up with this morning at Bob Evans...

1. Floating Beer Pong
2. Playing with the water gun...namely shooting beer cans with it
3. Our slam ass view of the Red White and Boom fireworks
4. The apt turned club party we crashed where we stole jello shots and beer
5. Playing Bombs Over Baghdad...the drinking game we made up and will market
6. Redbull and Vodka shots that only Courtney got to enjoy
7. Watching the Degrassi marathon
8. Getting sunburnt when laying out on a cloudy day starting at 9:30 am so we were sure to get chairs at the pool!
9. Ordering pizza and having it delivered straight to the pool
10. Our "America" playlists on our iPods...specifically listening to "Courtesy of the Red White and Blue" over and over again...

It was definitely one of the best weekends I've had in a loooong time and I'm glad I got to host Independance Day 2k9 here at Runaway Bay...

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
