Snow Day!!!

Yesterday was a snow day at my school. The phone rang at 5:30 AM to tell me so. I went back to sleep till 7:30 and then worked on most of my bio 2 assigments due next week. Then I visited with my grandparents. They are doing well. I finished one princess sock, and since it's a little tight on me, I will donate the single sock to Operation Single Sock Liberation. They accept single socks for amputees at Walter Reed Medical Center. Picture will follow. I think I will now focus on Emily's wavy scarf. Then I will start a scarf for Scarves From the Heart. Overall it was a great day!

1st post of 2010!

Happy New Year!!! I cannot believe it is 2010 already! This is a big year for me, because I graduate high school this year. I cannot belive i've been at Hill Top for almost four years now. Wow time flies! Tommorow I'm back to school. I getting up early. I pulled out sadie's coat that I started knitting in August. I'm nearly finished now. All I have to do is the band that goes underneath, and weaving the ends. I'm also working on my princess socks. The reason they are called that is because I'm using knit picks stroll multi yarn and the colorway is Princess. I also started a curly snake from itty bitty toys using the scrap sock yarn from mom-mom's socks. Hopefully tommorow will go by quickly. My New Year's Resolutions are varied. They include eating healthier, cooking more, excersising more, and taking better care of my appearance.

Last post of 2009!

hello all!
Happy New Year! I had a great Christmas. I received a new mp3 player and plenty of yarn!! I'm working on socks with one of the yarns. I'm also working on a wavy scarf, its an intersting pattern. I'm using red heart and the scarf will be for my February 31st deadline for Scarves From the Heart (I'm a member of the stichers for the seasons program at that charity) i bascially make a scarf every three months. February's theme is pink and/or blue. I must go read for my book report.

Christmas Eve 2009

so I wont be finished the orange peel sweater in time, I made an error that I need help fixing. I was working on Bella's Mittens and finished one but dont have enough yarn to finish the second. (I went to Joann's last night but they were sold out of that color). I will post pics when both are finished. I did order from joanns.com so I could still get the sale. Now I started a new pair of socks. So far I have gotten amazon.com and knitpicks.com gift cards online. I tried to use the gift card from amazon on my kindle to buy a book and it kept charging my dad's credit card so I called them and got a guy with an accent who was very nice but i'm not sure if the problems solved or not. I cannot wait for tommorow morning. I had a strange dream last night, that my mom got me all these DS that were all about cats for Christmas and I started arguing with her in the dream. Totally weird. I'm playing a few songs on violin for my family tonight at our annual family party at my house. Happy Holidays to all!

Holiday Show Tommorow!/today

I'm so excited for the holiday show tommorow and Friday! I've been working so hard for it! I'm singing in Don't Stop Believen, and playing violin in other songs. The band I'm in is the biggest ever! My friend, Erin, is singing a song she wrote!

Today was a fairly good day. My mentor, gave me a book about broadway as my Christmas present. It's so interesting! We are watching a documentary in Bio 2 called America the Beautiful. Some of the facts are appaling! Did you know that the plastic surgeons on Dr. 90210 are not board certified?

I've been working hard on my sweater that i'm knitting (the pattern is called Orange Peel Sweater). I hope to have it finished by Xmas but it probaly wont be. Off to my violin lesson!

Rough Two Weeks

It has been a rough two weeks. I have had been having a Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) flare up. I had a hard time getting through my orchestra rehersal on the 2nd of November. I also have not been able to knit and crochet as much as I'd like. To top things off, the end of the marking period is today, so I've had a lot of last minute tests and quizzes. We are also dissecting a cat in Bio 2 which is difficulut for me emotionally and physically. Luckily my lab partner is helping me with the physical part. I am getting used to the dissecting though and emotionally I'm doing better.

Yesterday was the college fair at my school. I was at school from 7:40 AM to 7:45 PM. I helped set up and talked to Harcum College, College of Saint Elizabeth, and West Virgina Wesleyan College. I'm excited for college.
