Holy Hecksters!

I've been slacking, and its not because ive been busy. Well this will be a small update since I still havent uploaded photos from my christmas vacation. Theres been snow here a bit, but my boyfriend has gotten tons of snow in WA. Well over 2 feet of snow, I believe, as well as freezing rain and mass power outages. My mom only lives about 30 minutes away and hasnt lost power at all but also has tons of snow. Hopefully Roads will be fine by this weekend. Douglas and I have plans for him to come visit me in Canada and go to a Canucks game!
Go Canucks
and Go away snow and ice!

Well...

     This winter vacation has been eventful. I still have one week left to be home then I have to go back to Canada and get back into school. Its going to be hard. Being home has definetly helped me realize the type of place I want to live and Its helped me think about my future more and how I'm going to juggle it all.
    A few days ago, Douglas and I went up to Mt. Rainier, and ooooooh boy it was super snowy and icey, but only really near the top, otherwise it was just rainy. One thing I didnt realize, was how much it snowed. Take one step and next thing you know, your entire leg is in a hole. Well, it was really me. Douglas, lucky butthead, has some kind of sixth sense when it comes to walking in snow.

                               No I wasnt snowing, The snow wall in the parking lot was just that high

                                                    This photo is a whole other story. My dear BF decided that I just HAD to see this waterfall. Well, the trail was icey and snowey and steep. Took a long time getting down to the view point. I also thought he was going to have to cut off my leg because I was, once again, stuck in a hole of ice at a weird angle. Honestly, I was more concered about losing my shoe in the hole and having to walk back with one boot.

                                                                My snow throne

                                                          My creepy/ damn snow in my eye, face

                                                                

                                                              

                               He said he didnt push me, but I can say that I didnt pose like that on purpose

 

I Know I'm Late

but Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

I'll update tomorrow! lol

Home for the Holidays

     Ive been home for almost a week now, and so far it has been somewhat eventful. My boyfriend finally met my mom, we also went to the zoo during the day and at night for Zoolights. My mom and I saw Sherlock Holmes 2, which was amazing. Douglas, his cat, and I also got christmas photos with Santa. Im anxious to see those. I do, however, have a photo of the cat wearing her elf hat before we went to take christmas photos.
     Tonight we are making my great grandma's christmas cookies, which we do every year, and they are the most amazing cookies ever but a pain to decorate because one batch makes sooooooooooo much, but I think I was able to recruit Douglas to help *evil grin*
    Tomorrow we will, hopefully, be going to a play. I say "hopefully" because I'm paranoid and hoping tickets are still available. Next week, we are going to Mt Rainer! And for NYE we are going to Portland, OR. Also, I need to hangout with Ashley. Shes really the only person from home that I still talk to. I knew my friends werent that great so I wasnt surprised that they only kind of contact me when I'm home, except for Ashley. She emails me all the time and was even more excited for my home coming than I was. Shes a good person.
     Oh gosh, so many things to do while Im home, yet all I want to do is spend all of my time with Douglas and my mom. Good thing I still have two more weeks here!

Douglas' cat, Leah, with her new Christmas hat. Also its her first Christmas.

Me and Douglas' dog, Millie. She loves dressing up and cuddling.

Brita likes to wear my hair on her face, and Jon likes to photo bomb

Packing for Christmas break

Today has been an interesting day.
     First we had to bring our massive makeup kits to school and our cameras to recreate a photo for the Art & Tech portion of our course. Later in the day we were put into our new class which is Hair for Bridal and Fashion. I know im going to ace that because I'm already a licensed hairstylist in the states. Anyways, not only did we have our giant makeup kits but we were also given a large hair kit bag, a big box of hot rollers, and a manequin head and not to forget my large purse, camera and lunch tupperware.
     I want you to imagine all those pieces piled onto one and my little arms trying to drag, carry, and wrap around bags and boxes. Oh and the bus decided to just drive right past without even slowing down.

     Alright, well now that I have that ranted out, Let me rant on about trying to pack. Im stuffing a suitcase inside a larger suitcase so I have room for my christmas presents. On top of that I have my purse, which will be full and heavy, Douglas' bag of gifts and the large broom I once spoke of in blog posts past. In that suitcase is clean and dirty clothes because I was too lazy to go to the laundry mat to wash my clothes. GUH!
    Damn train for leaving so early in the morning. Tomorrow night my classmates are having a "christmas booze" party and I must miss it so I can sleep and catch my train in the morn. Oh well, we will have other celebrations.

That Is All.
:-p

Forks, WA

Dont go there. Just...dont. Why you ask? Because Forks is a one road town that takes 3 seconds to drive through. The High school is the size of a post office, and the most entertaining thing about it was the "Seasons Greetings" sign over the main road from the begining of Forks to the end of Forks. Also, if your a Twilight fan, La Push isnt even that close to Forks. The town in the movie is 10 times bigger compared to the actual town of Forks.

ok, that is all.

:-)

:-P

I love my boyfriend.

Also, I caved and spent more money. I did take out my cab money and some extra for snacks on the train. Also paid Katie back and got clearance stuff from Michaels Craft store for the scrapbook.
I just cant help myself when it comes to Michaels and Lush! I should give myself a monthly budget, which will be $0 after christmas.

That is all.
