Some thoughts and a little blues.

So I'm not going to write too much, I have a pounding headache and a year's worth of homework!

I got glue on nails yesterday. So far, they're all still attached to my fingers. They're quite nice, I like the length and the strength of them.. I just don't want to paint them because it really shows they're artificial if I do that. I did fudge them up by using a strong acetone polish remover on them (I painted them and THEN realized how cheap they looked) and it peeled off some of the surface... even after some fresh topcoat and nail hardener they still look gross. Oh well.

  Finished the knitting part of the heart pillows last night! All I need to do is embroider them and they're done! I've really been itching to knit myself something big and pretty, i just don't think I've got the skill or patience yet. I have tons of sock weight yarn, I\m just terrified of knitting socks. I can't even finish mittens and have them the same size.. so socks would probably come out ten sizes differently!! *sigh*

  I've recently become infatuated with modern blues music. It has a relaxing, yet sexy sound to it and it just puts me in a happy place. Here are two of my current favourite songs.





"Baby Please Don't Go" - The Mason Rack Band

An Australian band my friend introduced me to a while ago. I love, love LOVE their sound and the fact that the three members are capable of playing all three instruments!




"Next Girl" - The Black Keys

This is a band I first head sitting on the patio of a local pub. A guest of my close friend referred to them as "country", which was in fact a horrible thing to say and not at all true. The video is apparently an attempt to get attention, but the song has so much meaning and power. Plus, I have a thing for white men who can sing.

Day II

Day two of many!

  I had an interview with the tourism company in town here. Pretty sure I got the job, but I could be wrong. To prepare for an interview I always make sure I ask myself "Would I hire me? Why or why not?" Today I felt as if I would hire myself. Not only because I knew I had the required skills neccesary for the job, but also because I feel positive, motivated and excited to work with a company that exposes me to the public. I applied fora position in the ticket office, but I think that my intrapersonal skills will get me a better position with the company. I can't say for sure, but I think it went well. She'll let me know by Thursday. 

  I'm halfway done knitting a project for my man for Valentine's day. I made him a heart shaped pillow in his favourite colour and I plan on writing "hers" on it and I am making one in purple for myself that will read "his". Cheesy, I know, but I think it's cute and sentimental. :)  I'll take some pictures when they're done.

  Other than that, I don't have a whole lot else to say right now. If I come up with anything I'll post it later.
