Day 25 of 30 days of me

What you would find in my bag.

Well, I used to carry a purse and in it I absolutely always had 5 things:
a deck of cards
a movie
lady products haha
some kind of candy
a notebook
*and in the summertime a swimsuit because you never know when you might need one of those...*

But lately I haven't been carrying a purse...I just carry my wallet under my arm and my phone and keys in my pocket. I do use a backpack for school though and it has lots of good things in it like:
my ipod
my school id card
my planner
my hard drive
and a sharpie (because according to a speech I got from a film prof the other day, you cannot be a filmmaker if you don't carry a sharpie around with you all the time. lucky for me i carried my sharpie before i heard that speech haha)

what's the most random thing in your bag? or do you carry a bag?

day 24 of 30 days of me

A letter to your parents.

Dear Mom & Dad,
Not to sound self centered...but I think you guys have done a great job with me and my big bubba...just sayin. I'm really glad that you had me...even though you weren't supposed to be able to have kids anymore. You never treated me like an accident, I have never felt like you regret having me even though sometimes the way I act probably makes me deserving of such treatment. I love that y'all don't care that I'm majoring in something that could potentially make me no money because you think I'm good at it and you want me to be happy.
I hope one day in the extremely far far away future when I might possibly have kids, that I can be awesome parents like you guys. I have nothing but respect for you both and I just want to make you proud. I love you with all my heart!

Love,
Krackle

Day 23 of 30 days of me

Something you crave a lot.

*okay, disclaimer...i was supposed to finish this yesterday. But my life has been seriously fast paced and busy. I have cried myself to sleep a few times in the last couple weeks. Such is life sometimes. I'll survive and things are looking up finally. Anyways I've decided to continue doing one or two a day so I don't overrun google reader with a million blog posts. ...you're welcome.*

Here are a couple things I'm always craving.


Blow Pop Flavors
Blow Pops for sure!! I'm so addicted.


and strawberries all the time!


and of course ice cream. specifically peanut butter shakes with twix or snickers or brownies mixed in. (I'm a hugely loyal customer at Marble Slab)

p.s. this has nothing to do with cravings... but we have a Julie Blackmon exhibit in our art gallery at school and I am soooo stoked. I LLLLLOVE her stuff it's so strange and quirky.

ok love you bye!

You probably don't know...

How crazy my world is right now. I am working on a wedding cake, a presentation for a history conference, my Japanese sister is coming to visit me, and I have to finish my short film by tuesday. I promise that 30 days of me will be finished soon...It might be Sunday or Monday though. 

Happy note though: I haven't seen Mio in 3 years and she's going to be staying with me tonight through sunday. I am so. psyched.!!! We will have a blast I'm sure. We're about the same age and she is studying English so the language barrier isn't as hard to break through. I really miss her whole family, especially her mom. We bonded I think ha. I hope I can go see them all one day.

Day 22 of 30 days of me

What makes you different from everyone else?

Oh wow...where to start? 

I might be the only girl on the planet who doesn't want to have a huge outrageous wedding. I don't even know if I want a wedding period. I'm thinking maybe rent a dress and take lovely pictures then just elope haha.

I eat the food on my plate one at a time.

I get freaked out by lots of things like people who whistle in hallways, and that Michelin commercial, and the new old navy mannequins...

That's enough...I'm getting self conscious haha

Day 21 of 30 days of me

A picture of something that makes you happy.

Well due to a computer malfunction...I can't get pictures loaded at the moment. I've been putting my 30 days of me posting off, hoping to fix the problem but it doesn't look promising. So I'll put some pictures up that I already have loaded...and we'll have to save the original ones I was planning on.

My beautiful friend Char, who recently got married just found out that she is having a little girl! :-)....annnnd they are moving back to Conway soon, so I will get to see her so much more!

This random picture of Sarahbeth and me from our Hello Ladies photoshoot :-)!!! I am in love with this picture.

Speaking of things I'm in love with....haha this makes me happy too!

I like to read...

I made something super cute tonight...unfortunately it is extremely hard to photograph. I will be trying to get a photo all night though...rest assured because it will be too cute to handle!

I haven't been able to write a lot lately and I feel like I've only been doing the 30 days of me challenge. So here's a little about what's been going on. Last Thursday I checked a book out of the library called "The year the music changed." 

It was so good! I  didn't expect to like it. It's a fictional story involving Elvis Presley who I am in love with. It is presented in the form of letters. Elvis and a young woman are writing each other and she gives him grammar lessons. I know it doesn't sound that fabulous right? BUT I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!! I read the whole thing in about 5 hours. I was up til 1am because I just had to finish it. 

I'm about to start reading a book about the 1967 Best Picture nominees and what they said about the changing culture of that time.

It's pretty interesting and just my cup of tea :-).

My boyfriend and my best friend's (they're brother and sister) grandmother passed away on Sunday. It's sad but at the same time it's happy because she was suffering in the end. Now she doesn't have to be trapped in her old body anymore. It's nice to think of her rejuvenated and pain free. I only met her once and we played Sorry for about 3 hours. She was so sweet and happy. My prayers are with the family.

I hope you're all having a happy week :-).
bye for now lovelies!
