next 10 years

In school I feel like I am constantly asked to make a list of (career) goals I want to accomplish in the next 3, 5, and 10 years. So I thought why not make a list of fun goals to make for myself in the years to come.

3 year goals:
-expand my garden
-go to the Sex & the City tour in new york
-buy a few rose bushes
-finish Coco Chanel's biography
-go camping
-go to the top of the Washington Monument

5 year goals:
-own 365 pairs of underwear
-meet Betsey Johnson (when she visits Georgetown again)
-go to Disney World again


10 year goals:
-go to the statue of liberty
-maybe have a kid or two.

disclaimer: I do want to get married before I have kids but if I put a time limit on this I may screw myself in the end haha.

-spring break
-finishing my last spring semester of school EVER
-Amanda comes home next week I believe it is. or the week after. it doesn't matter which one because Ill be here either way!

vintage kitchen crack

Vintage kitchenware has become my newest passion over the last few years. How it began was when I moved into my Mommom's house I was cleaning out the cabinets. There was a collection of these four pink and orange bowls that I loved and decided to use as my everyday bowls. I came to find out that they were FireKing bowls that my mommom had gotten free from collecting stamps. So then I slowly began collecting other things to match these bowls and it turned into a huge hobby of mine. I have no idea what people are going to give me if I ever get married and have a wedding shower. I can't stand the idea of owning new kitchenware!!

-Pyrex bowls (this set looks amazing...mine are all beat up!)

-fireking (this comes in several colors...this person just has an obsession for jade apparently)

-old fiesta ware
I also collect this stainless steel silverware which was free when you bought Betty Crocker. My Mommom took years to collect it and I am still using it today. Every once in a while I will get lucky and find a new piece at Goodwill. I cant remember the name of the pattern but it has shooting stars on the handles.

This is one of those times where I am really starting to realize I am my moms clone.

Save the planet. Buy Used.

No doggy style happening at my house.

Ok so first of all I feel like I must give background info for this blog:
1. A dog can only get pregnant while she is in heat.
2. "Bitches" only go in heat about twice a year and stay in heat for roughly 2 weeks.
3. You really should not breed your dog until their 3rd heat because they are too young for the first 2 heats.

On that note. MY DOG IS IN HEAT and this is her 3rd heat!! Chihuahua's here we come!!!!!!!!

NOT.
My other chihuahua Rascal has no interest in her. I sat him down today and explained to him that I could really use an extra buck from there pups and that if he would knock her up I would be eternally thankful and I wouldn't yell as much when he pees on stuff. I do not think it helped because they are both asleep on opposite ends of the couch.

I was thinking that when she finally went in heat it would be ridiculous at my house. Chahwah sex in the kitchen, outside on every inch of the yard, moms house, my bed, their beds, in the bathroom, on the sofa, in the recliner, at the park, and everywhere else their little horny bodies could take them. Not so much.

I am going to look into doggy viagra and slip it in Rascal's kibbel.

(on a side note, my first chihuahua Doodle was so horny back in his day that we would have to give him medicine so he would stop humping everything!!)

mondayys are no fun days

actually I lied. i like mondays. So anyhow, I have decided to do my internship at this artique/artsy/garden center/ furniture / trash to treasure type of store this summer! I am very excited and I have all sorts of ideas to bring to this internship. The store owner was saying how she may not open the garden center this year and she said maybe that could be my project. I have already decided I am going to buy a bunch of herb seeds this year and start them out, then replant them in teacups, flower pots, little vases and whatever else can hold a plant. I am also going to expand my wild flower garden and pick a few bouquets of them every week and try to sell them. Anyhow I like things that can let my imagination run wild so this is the perfect fit for me.

ta ta fo now :]

hurray its friday

It just occured to me this morning that I am 3 weeks away from Spring Break. Alex and I are going camping, and while we are there we are going to Monticello (Thomas Jeffersons house), some vineyard near there, and Lurray Caverns. And in between there probably stop to see my sis. Whats funny is I am thinking about all the new clothes I need to buy to go camping. I am pathetic haha. I also just got encouraged by the fact that this semester is an incredibly hard one for me and it is almost half way over.

Yesterday I went to get a manicure with Nicole and Amanda. My nails are so pretty! They are hot pink and hot purple (every other nail a different color) and ontop of that is sparkles. They are very glamorous and Jamieliscious. Then we went to Ruby Tuesday for drinks and dinner. They have this drink called a Ruby Relaxer. Its really good. I cant go there and not get one.

And lastly, today I am going to visit my best friend! We have all sorts of fun stuff planned for the weekend. I am very excited about going to Forever 21 tomorrow. There is a huge one in Towson Mall and Jess and I are like kids in a candy store when we go there!

Have a great weekend everybody!!!

RIP Alexander McQueen

This week was New York's fashion week. Alexander McQueen also recently died so I feel it is fitting to share some of his works of art. I call his shoes art because they look miserable to actually wear.


I wanna say these shoes are inspired by the renaissance. Women used to wear ridiculously tall shoes to keep their elaborate dresses off of the streets...which were very nasty.
I actually love this shoe. This is probably the only one of these shoes I would actually attempt to wear!
These shoes are simliar to the shoes McQueen designed for Lady Gaga's music videos.


Anyhow, take some time to learn about him or google his fashion shows. They are definitely a must see.
