a day without you is like a year without rain.

The rain is pouring down right now, which makes me extremely excited for bed. ♥ it's my favorite time to sleep... when it's raining.

Soo. My weekend was just fabulous. Full of on the go, non stop events - but I wouldn't change that. It's also my favorite! I hope you all had a lovely weekend, too. It's almost Thanksgiving! Woo. Who's excited?

Decided to change up the dress a bit. :)





Please excuse my messy, messy room. ha there are clothes all over. :/ embarrassing.

Life is seriously so amazing right now, i wouldn't change a thing. I just found out that I only have 6 more classes until I am done with my associates!! hallelujah - haha. I'm soo stoked. I can wait to be done with that and then my BA. Also, I am going to have an interview at a pre-school, I would be a substitute for the prek class or something like that. I am just thrilled and really hope this works out. :)

Well, i'm off to bed. Class tomorrow and then no more classes this week. Yay.

my wish, for you

is that this life becomes all that you want it, to. Ah, in a bit of a Rascal Flatts mood. :) I hope everyone had a super weekend! I sure did. On Sunday at Church, we had a Bengals-Colts day and lots of people represented. It was quite fun.

Over the weekend, my family and I ate at PF Changs- my sister, Kirsten, and I decided to take full oppurtunity of the nicely lit bathrooms and sneak a few pics.



&


She had just picked up this nifty little hat that day and she was in love with it. I was showing her these pics and she said 'oh sis, that hat really ruined those pics' hahaha i laughed so hard. She's only 9 :)

Also, I've picked up a pair of some Prada glasses at such a splendid price.. so I wore them today. I think they're quite cute.


& the side of them- PRADA.


Today has been such a rainy day, a bit of a crumb if you ask me- because just a few days ago it was in the 70's and sunny and today, it's in the 40's and so dreary.  I appreciate a rainy day every once in a while, when I can stay home, sip some coffee and watch a good movie. However, today was not one of those days. :/ Although, I looove when it rains when I sleep. So maybe tonight, I'll get lucky. Hope everyone's weeks are off to a good start!

Happy Veterans Day.

Happy Veterans Day- and thanks to everyone that has served, is serving and will serve. We sure do appreciate it. :) Thanks to @Michael Devor for serving in the USAF.

So, I have been getting my Christmas List ready just a wee bit early this year. Ha. But I started off on the TOMS website- BECAUSE...


(THE HOLIDAY COLLECTION HAS ARRIVED:) I could not be any more stoked. I have chosen my favorites and I definitely think that you all, my blog friends, should help me choose. Pretty please. :)

#1
 
#2
 
#3
 
#4
 
#5
 
& #6
 
So basically, I would like to have the whole Holiday Collection. haha But I certainly can't do that. So I believe that you all should vote on your favorite pair and help me decide. :) That would sure help me heaps.

send me away with the words of a love song.

Ahh. Greetings :) I have had quite the week. I tried blogging a couple times, on one occassion it would not post my blog, then my internet randomly went out for two days and tonight, I tried again and accidentally deleted everything. Seriously?! Just not my luck, I suppose. ha. However- here I am, and nothing is stopping me now. I have been bombarded with homework this week. It's been quite hectic. No class tomorrow- Happy Veterans Day. On another happy note.. spring registration is among us - which means fall semester is almost over. Thank you Jesus. So on Monday, my favorite football team- The Cinci. Bengals were playing the Steelers(ugh) and so I decided to be somewhat festive and support them with wearing my #9 Carson Palmer jersey, my black UGGS, orange earrings and orange nails. However, my hopes were crushed and they, once again lost. What a crumb.


I understand that in the above ^ picture, I have shorts on with leggins and my UGGS and in the below picture I have a skirt on. But I was trying to decided which looked the best with the jersey. ha.


The only reason I posted this ^ picture is because I wanted to show my orange nails and my very favorite ring. :)

Okay, so Ohio usually has very crummy weather, and esp in November. Usually very chilly. This November seems to be quite the contrary. I'm sure not complaining. ♥ 71 degrees sure works for me. I suppose I was heading South East while taking this pic, ha.


This seems to wrap up my past few days, other than the abundance of homework my teachers have decided to dish out this week. Thanks guys.
Hope everyones week is going just swell. :) I should be back tomorrow for more. Yay.

it's not a dream anymore, oh no.. it's worth fighting for.

Hello. :)

The weekend is among us. Ahhh - could not be any more stoked. I have officially survived a week of watching my sisters, and brother. Doing all mom things. Waking up at 6am, getting them ready, taking them to school, dishes, cleaning up after everyone goest to bed, packing lunches, making supper(ha, or attempting:), driving to needed destinations, making beds, some laundry.. etc. Wheww, this mom stuff is hard work. I was tired by like 8pm each night. Of course, I didn't go to sleep then, but that's whatever. :) However, doing all this has been extremely fun! My parents will be back tomorrow and we are sure anticipating their arrival back. Tonight, we are going to Skyline to eat supper. A personal Zink's favorite place, haha. GOOD NEWS: @MICHAEL DEVOR, his .blog here, Is home from Germany for good. He was in the Air Force and has been for a while stationed in Germany, but he's home and I could not be any more ecstatic to see him sometime very soon!:) I plan on sleeping in tomorrow and pretty excited about that. On a sad note, my roomie: @ChelseaBoyd, is here in Ohio visiting and sad, sad day.. I won't be able to see her:( booo! Hope she won't hate me. This blog is one giant rambling, but ahh- it's been one crazy, fun, and hectic week. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and I will be back on Monday, and ready to get back to 'normal' blogging again! ha.
This is Michael :)


This is Chelsea and I when we were roommates: sad face!

baby, you're a firework.

A few nights ago, I decided to have a little fun with my phone camera. Hah. Here are the results-










(Top:Wal-Mart, Skirt: Old Navy, Shoes: Forever 21, Purse:LV)

How is everyone's week going? It's already hump day.. woohoo. The weekend is almost here again. Here's a funny story: I have a really nice, Nikon-CoolPix digital camera and it takes great pics. However, my brother and his friends have decided to start making videos and so now my camera has escaped my Coach camera holder and now is in my brother's pocket 24/7. ha. So my phone camera will have to suffice until the camera becomes mine again. hah :)

Also, this is a bid odd that i'm blogging at 4:30 vs like 11:30 at night. Ha. But I just had a hankering to blog now and I had some free time - yay.

i believe there is hope buried beneath it all.

Who loves paramore?! I do. :) I hope everyone had an amazing weekend and a very scary Halloween! Mine was spent at home.. boo. :/ But I was in with my family and that's all that matters. My sister was very sick and so it kind of ruined the plans we'd had. But it's okay. On Saturday night I got to hang with the best, Nikki Jackson. Now that she's away at college - it's hard to do our usual hang out events. However, this weekend was just like old times and she even told me that she may be coming home from college and go back to the college I'm at for a while. I screamed. It was completely necessary. Who else has so enjoyed looking through everyones Halloween pics?! I have. :) What all did you guys do?
I have no recent pics of any of my recent adventures. bummer!! But i'll get back around to better blogging tomorrow. :) I'm off to go read all your blogs that I have missed this weekend. ♥

the way you taste, you make it hard for breathing.

I was super excited when Two is Better than One came on during shuffle on my iPod today. Always appropriate.:)
So here is a picture from the aftermath of taking my makeup off after the Halloween festivities -



Yesterday was quite a chilly day, so my mom and I headed out to run some errands and sported our North Face jackets. She is undoubtedly my very best friend -



So I used to work at a tanning place and I've tanned there for years but today I ventured out of my shell and decided to tan at LA Tan for the first time, it was quite marvelous. I plan on going back. Here's a pic from the cute little bathroom to document my first time. This was after tanning, so I look a bit rough.ha -



So tomorrow, I am attending a Jewish Synagogue for my world religions class, we have to attend a religion's service different than our own, so since I'm Christian, my friends and I chose a Jewish one. I have to leave my house at 9 am to get there. :/ So much for sleeping in on a Saturday- haha. But I'm sure it will be very interesting!! Have any of you been? Any tips for me? :)

Feelings show.

Hello! It's almost Halloween, yay. So excited for that. :) Today was pretty much a boring day until 7 pm when the party started, I help out on Wednesday nights with a children's class and tonight was the Halloween party. SO fun. :) I really had no costume, but while rumaging I found a red cape. So I threw an outfit together, A black dress with the red cape, fake eyelashes that I had but had never worn, I had black and red fishnet hose, red pumps, and then a cute little red headband and made a spider out of pipe cleaners. Woo:) so nifty, didn't even have to spend a dime. Love that. Here are a few pictures.

To much dismay, I did not get a good full length picture of the whole outfit. sad face. But I was having so much fun. These pics ^ were taken with my good 'ole webcam. :)

So are you guys dressing up for Halloween? What are you going to be? Please do share. :)

Lovestoned.

Ahh. How long has it been?! Too long. This past week has been CRAZY. But here I am. So much has happened, I don't even know where to begin. But this weekend I went haunted housing again. Here a few pics from that, or before hand actually. My North Face is my absolute favorite. I had cute little owl earrings in and an owl ring, I loved sporting those to the haunted houses. I got pretty scared this weekend - ha.





Then I really liked my outfit Sunday for Church.







 I wish I had a close up, because my shoes and tights were killer. But oh well.
And, I am so excited, I have some more things to post on Thursday, hopefully! :)
 I trust that you all had as great of a weekend as I did!

who died and made you king of everything?!

...love that song! Ahh, bad news. Last night, I fell asleep at like 11 pm. Which means I did not get to blog, sad face!! First night of missing a blog. :( However, I am back. I made a point to not fall asleep tonight. I have a skype date with Chelsea tonight, which I am just so thrilled about. This is my roomie from Florida and I miss her dearly. She will be making a visit back to Ohio in just a week or two. Stoked.
I think i'm gonna have to get a cute little owl sweater, like such.

However, I think this one is fantastic. :)


ESPECIALLY WITH THE NEW JIMMY CHOOS AND UGG COLABORATION BOOTS. Ahh, these are amazing!! Check out the whole collection here. <3!
BLACK

I've got to get these boots, which I'm sure will not happen, haha. But it's worth dreaming about. :)
This weekend is bound to be another good one! Tomorrow night, my mom's off work- so we're gonna do something fun with her. Then on Saturday- Land Of Illusion, yet again! Yay. Nikki is home on fall break, so I plan on getting to see her again this weekend. Tomorrow I have class at 9 and then after that, I am freeee. ♥
Well, that's all for tonight. Love and Rockets-

PS- You guys should check out my friend, Dane's, band- The Movie Scene. They're really good. :)

Only Girl



This song- love it. Today was magnificent. I once again got 100% on my World Religions test. I could not be more thrilled!! Also, tonight was my sisters' 4th grade play - Kid's Life. It was soo adorable. I ran into my good friend Abbey, it was soo nice to catch up and be able to sit and talk with her. I loved it. :) Ahh. Last night I began working on something for my blog and i'm absolutely ecstatic about it! I need to work on it some more.. but be on the lookout! yay. :) can't wait. PS- it's not a new background. haha I know I switch that up a lot, but it's not that. Goodnight loves.

every breath.

Helloooo ♥


You know how usually Monday's stink? Well, today turned out to be a pretty fabulous Monday. I went to school and worked on some things that were due for my computer class, then I came home and we had supper and then family night! Which included the games, Clue & Fact or Crap. Ahh, what a blast. Our family is a mess, haha we could honestly do a reality show. No joke. If you haven't played this game.. you've got to try it. It's so funny.




Tonight, I have spent endless hours on my World Religions homework to prepare for the test tomorrow. Here's to hoping for another 100%! ha. Anyways this is what my view looked like for most of the night.

Also, I blogged about my new Ed Hardy bag the other night and I'm just getting around to posting pictures. :) So here they are ..


The front.



The back.



The inside.



The side.



The nifty little Ed Hardy pens that came with the bookbag. :) ha.



I'm going to have to get around to posting pictures of all my new rings and such that I bought. I plan on doing so, tomorrow. :) I think I will have some time to take pics and post them. Yay. Well, that shall be all for tonight, you lovely blogger friends.
