Okay so here’s the first batch of my holiday pictures! These are some of the first pictures I took with my camera. I swear this is best camera ever. The auto and easy mode really take awesome pictures and you don’t even have to do anything. Just point and click!
The cutie below is my guinea pig carmel. I love her to death but she annoys the hell out of my a LOT. There's are really sad looking x-mas tree. It was really last minute (we put it up on X-mas eve) so it looks really crappy. The epic piece of meat was the prime rib roast we had. It was so good too, it just melts in your mouth. Uh, the candy canes, jucie, and cake were very random, I just wanted to test out the camera. XD
Okay, I’m going to stop my rambling and show the pictures. Oh yeah, my deco pieces will be the next batch!
Merry Christmas and happy new years!
I finally have time to update on my holiday! It was the best X-mas/New years I ever had! I have to give you guys a quick summery.
• For X-mas I got (for myself)
Canon 12.1 mega pixel 4.0x zoom digital camera
Zune HD multimedia player (which is badassery at its finest!)
A 72 copic marker set (I haven’t had the change to use yet *whine*)
• Gifts I got form others
70 dollar blicks art supply gift card (from boyfriend)
Some slippers and underwear from Victoria’s secret ( my older sister)
And pretty much windows 7 from my dad (to fix the zune software problem)
• Gifts I gave other people
50 dollar gift card to borders for my sister
A Nintendo Wii DDR game and dance pad set for my boyfriend
My mom wanted a new battery for her cell phone but I still need to know where to get it.
And man let me tell you, that zune was a piece of work. The software that you use for it wouldn’t work property. It was because of my window’s player was all screwed up. I’m not sure if anyone remembers but my computer’s motherboard had stopped working and after it came from the repair’s the window media player wouldn’t work. It might for at lease a few seconds, then an error message would pop up and it would shut down. Well, I figured that was problem it the first place. But we (boyfriend and I) tried numerous things to see if there we can do to fix WMP besides wiping the whole computer and putting window’s 7 on. But after a good 2-3 days of intense research and time wasting we decide that wiping the computer clean and putting windows 7 was the way to go. Which I was happy about because it was way to much stuff on my computer and now I can start fresh.
So my dad gave us the money to get windows 7 (which I considered a gift from him) and we did what we had to do. After a day and a half of that and so I finally got my Zune working and its great, I love it to pieces! You can even name your Zune and I decided to name mines…
Zunebaby :3…
I got that name maybe around the time I brought it and I couldn’t depart from it.
The camera I have too is amazing! I took pictures of the family, food, and my freshly made decoden pieces! It gets into so much detail my jaw dropped at some of the pictures I took.
And speaking of decoden, guess who’s been working on it? >:3
I made pink and blue heart shaped macaroons and ice cream scoops, freshly baked heart, circle, and square shaped cookies and waffles. All made with paper clay to give it a nice cookie texture. I also made some chocolate swirl sticks and tiny heart cookies out of polymer clay last week. I’m so excited! There are so many ideas that I want to turn into reality. Jewelry, cell phone straps, hair accessories, and just stuff! D: I got such a bad creativity bug this week too. I was even up two nights ago writing poems for my original comic!
Getting back on the decoden, I brought some modeling paste, sandpaper, and more paper clay so I can make more pieces for today. I heard you can use modeling paste for the whip cream since its acrylic it’s much easier to clean up and use then silicone caulk. You don’t even have to buy oil paints to tint it just cheap ass acrylic paint (already have an oil set for my silicone so that doesn’t even matter to me anymore XD). I have both now and I haven’t tried either of them so I’m hoping that I can try both out and see which I like better.
AND I can finally post pictures of my clay creations and update the Candy Sanctuary! YAY!
Oh yeah, new years. It was great we had lots of food including crabs and shrimps! I pigged my self out that whole night, it was great. And as for resolutions?
I have plenty…
But I think I’ll leave that for the next post when I put up my pictures of my holidays!
Oh yeah, oh yeah, I’ve been getting some much love from my friends lately with gifts and subs so I just want to say thank you SO much. You guys know that I appreciate everything you do for me no matter who small it is! I truly owe you guys the world and activeness around here whenever I can.
I’m so lucky to have friends like you guys *tear drop* :’D
Take care!
Here’s another update!
The picture that I was working on and posted a WIP is finally done. Please go take a look I don’t think you’ll will be disappointed! >http://www.theotaku.com/fanart/view/322481/incubus_magic%253A_strawberry_cream
Besides that, guess who got a 72 Copic marker set on Wednesday?
You wouldn’t believe how long I wanted these markers! And a new art store finally opened up downtown that sold them, but since I was in school and jobless I couldn’t afford them. All that has changed for the better 2-3 years later (yay for waiting!), they had the 72 set on sell for $300 and I couldn’t run fast enough to get them. Once again they are my X-mas gift for myself so I have about a week to drool all over them before I can actually use them. Which is fine, I love that feeling! It’s like I’m a kid again. :3
So I’m done shopping for myself and now I have my family and friends to shop for. The biggest problem is that I have no clue what to get my boyfriend D:. In fact he already gotten my gift on Wednesday and is totally sure I’ll love it. But I don’t know if the gift I’m thinking about getting him well be “good enough” or at least on my end. It’s a board game called “munchkin” it’s originally a card game that he wanted really bad. I know he will love it but I wanted something more personal and homely for him… I don’t know. It shouldn’t even be a problem being that I know he will be happy if I got it for him.
I’ll figure it out. D:
Have a great holiday everybody! I’ll probably post on X-mas anyway. :P
Guess who got a Zune HD?!
MEEE!
I got it today after work (which was a pain in the butt). I went to best buy and they had it out on display where you can mess around with it. I held that son of a gun and while I was a bit confused with the menu, getting around a bit, and etc it was what all the reviews were raving about! I was swiveling the menus with my fingers and felt totally flawless and smooth. Let me tell you about that oled screen. FAN-F*UKING-TASIC… I played the video that was in the Zune and was blown away. The colors, depth, and richness are nothing I ever seen on any kind of mp3/phone. I didn’t think you can get that kind of power in a small device like that. Anyway after an hour or some screwing around the store messing with devices and things I finally brought it. The insurance was higher then a giraffe’s ass though. 50 for regular wear and tear and 70 for two year of the “if I do something stupid and drop the Zune in the toilet and it doesn’t work after it dries off” kind. I wanted to get insurance but damn that would have been 300 down the drain right then and there. So I just went without it. I just hope I wasn’t the lucky one with the defected Zune HD. >-<
In other news I had work today. I had to be there are 7:00AM. I wasn’t a happy camper waking up at 4:35AM when I had my alarm for 4:00AM. I had to be out the house at 5:10AM so I had to hustle to get out the door. Thank goodness I half ass planed on what I was going to wear and that my mom brought burgers for me and my sister for work that day. Things went smoothly except the fact the bus didn’t go to the stop we were suppose to get off at. So me and my fellow co-workers, lucky two of them that worked at vanguard for like a year (which I was following) walked half the way there and a friend of one of the co-workers picked us up.
Oh yeah, after I went to best buy I went across the street to King of Prussia Mall. Christ all mighty was that bitch crowed! I couldn’t even get a bite to eat, I had to go over to rite aid to get something to eat and drink. I was totally ready to start snapping necks after 15 minutes of that place.
I guess that’s it for now. I’m glad I was able to update within a week or so instead of a year. I hope everyone’s weekend is going well, see ya next time!
Oh yeah, check out my WIP --> http://www.theotaku.com/fanart/view/321502/wip I can’t wait till I have it done and posted! XD
And I’m back again! 8D
Hey all and how is everyone doing today? The holidays are coming up; does anyone have any special plans?
I’m doing fine. I’m done training and now on the floor! Also with that I’m on the compressed schedule. This means I have to be there a whole hour early! I was dreading it all weekend let me tell you. I boyfriend came over the weekend and I just couldn’t let him go on Saturday night. When he started to get ready I was so sad and made my sappy face. He kept looking at me and I just looked at him with my puppy dog eyes. When he was pretty much ready to leave out the door he decided to stay the night. I was so happy! I really didn’t want him to go because as soon as he did I would have been bored and would have nothing to look forward to but work, which I’m dreading in the first place.
Oh yeah, yesterday was my boyfriends first day at vanguard! He’s going to be trained in the building I’m working in so we can have lunch together. I was really happy to see him too and he gave me his granola bar and cashews. I tore them up. I have to invest in work snacks now since I’m there 7:30AM to 6:30PM. I have to get up at 4:30AM and leave out at 5:50AM just to make it in time. It wasn’t as bad as I thought. It didn’t feel any different since it was still dark outside. It is a bit creepy going to the subway though since the sun is not even coming up yet. They also can let me out early (6:00pm) because I have to take the last shuttle home but I can only have a half hour break. Works for me, by 5:00pm I’m dead anyway XD
In more worthy news... I’ve finally got down on my paper clay and made some cookie and macaroon pieces for my deco den/jewelry. Paper clay feels amazing! I love the cool wetness of it. Its really good for the texture as well, I like how the macaroon came out but the cookies look okay, I’m just concerned that it may look too much like paper texture rather then biscuit/cookie texture. I haven’t had time to try the silicone whipped cream yet either which I was head over hells for. I want to make more pieces before I embark on that. I want to make cakes, lollipops, strawberries, etc. I’m also thinking about getting some molds off esty. There are a lot that I can use like the fancy donuts and stuff. I also want to get some of that shrink plastic inkjet paper so I can make some cell phone charms of my characters. There’s so much I want to do so little time! D:
I guess before I wrap this up, I’m getting a Zune HD this week for x-mas! I wanted a new mp3 player for about a year now and since I have the money to get one I want the best that’s on the market. It was going to be either the IPod touch or the Zune HD. The Zune HD came up on top for me. I really wanted to be able to put my pictures on it and have my animes for viewing pleasure. The Zune HD has this fancy oled screen it should look quite spiffy! After I get that, I want to get the 72 set of copic markers. Hopefully I will be able to get a ps3 in time for x-mas but if I don’t I’ll just get it afterwards.
Okay, I’m going to enjoy my two days off! I work 4 days a week now I forgot to mention and I’m working on some pictures too. One should one up soon. It has to do with my incubus addiction. :3
Till next time!
