Pretty good day!

Monday-

usually I don't like Mondays. But, knowing that I would not need to get up for my English 100 class, made it somewhat better today. So, it was nice to go to only one class today! :) Then I got my nails done! :) I figured I would get them done b/c they're so weak anyways, and blah blah blah..lol! So yeah. Then I showed Courtney my new favorite store! One Girl's Treasure a vintage thrift store! :) I LOVE IT! hehehe!

And then, I bumped into a highschool friend and a friend of hers, whom I've met! So, pretty good one today! :) hehe!

Hoping that this week will be better than the last two!

God bless!

Sick...

Urgh! So, last night I got sick..no surprise!

I've had three cans of soup in less than 24 hrs. Sick=sleep for me. I sleep forever! I'm just praying and hoping I'm well enough for church and other plans I have for tomorrow!

This was my first meal last night...grrr!

Hope you all had a wonderful Saturday! :)

ARTPRIZE 2010

THESE ARE ONLY SOME OF THE PIC. THAT I TOOK! I LOVE THE CITY!!!! :)

SO GLAD THAT MR.DEVOS THOUGHT OF THIS! ARTISTS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD ENTER THEIR EXHIBIT TO POSSIBLY WIN A HALF A MILLION DOLLARS! I BELIEVE THERE WERE LIKE SOME 17,000 EXHIBITS!

THERE'S MY NAME!( I DID NOT PUT IT THERE THOUGH HAHA! THIS MADE ME SIMLE!)

THIS PIG SCARED ME SO BAD!
THERE WAS A WHOLE BUNCH OF CHILDREN. ADOPTED....THAT THIS ARTIST DID. THE COOL AND KIND OF CREEPY THING WAS---ANY POSITION YOU MOVED....IT SEEMED LIKE THE EYES OF THESE PICTURES WERE FOLLOWING YOU WITH THEIR EYES! KIND OF COOL HOW THE ARTIST COMPILED THEM!
THIS IS SOOOO CRAZY! AND NOTICE---THE COLOR GREEN IS NOT IN THIS ANYWHERE! CRAZY, HUH?!



And this is the piano that I sat down and played! It was SUCH a wonderful feeling to make music again! :) There are 20 pianos around the city that are painted.."free expression" like! The artist that came up with this is from the United Kingdom :)

FRIDAY! Oct. 1st, 2010

HAPPY FRIDAY!

I'm done with class for the day. As usual it was VERY confusing. But, with help from other students, I think I somewhat understand the presentation assignment and essay we are to do by Oct. 15th.

After class, I walked around downtown to take pics of the ArtPrize exhibits! I LOVE them! People from all over the world have created amazing at exhibits, and enter to win a half a million dollars. :)

The really awesome part of this, is that my English Prof. wants us to pick one of the exhibits that is signifiance to MYSELF, and write an essay on it! So, I picked the pianos that a man from the United Kingdom painted! There are 20 around the city, and anyone is free to play them! So, I stumbled acorss one, sat down, and played! When I got up an elderly couple clapped for me! I LOVED it! I miss my music with the piano, and I'm looking for a GOOD keyboard to purchase!

I will post my pictures of the exhibits probably later today! :)

God bless!

Last day of September?!

Hello!

I cannot believe today is the LAST day of September! Man, has it been a crazy and nonstop BUSY time! I am SO thankful that the weekend is upon us, as well. I updated this blog here today, because I really do want to blog more! :)


Today, I worked at the child care center (where I have worked at so far for about 2 years). I am in the midst of training a new employee. I never realize how many things there are to remember while taking care of children. I'm in the crawlers room. I LOVE to see babies first learn to crawl, eat new foods, and eventually walk! It is SUCH a blessing. I see myself in relation to God all the time. How they fall and cry and are picked up to start over. Or when the older toddlers purposefully do something wrong, and how even when disciplined, love is still spilled on them! Just like Christ is with me. It's humbling!


Tomorrow is my 3.5 Interpersonal Communications class. Augh. Trying NOT to have a bad attitude. It's a frustrating class b/c of the prof. but, I'm sure God has a reason why I am in the class! haha

God bless!
