Back to your regularly scheduled programming….

Been out of it for a while now, sorry. I like being busy at home, even if the thing keeping me busy is cuddling with my cats and watching snow fall.

Home has been better than the first few days. So far, I have been able to see a lot of my friends and do enough of the winter-y things I like. Not nearly enough skating, sledding or snowman making, but that will have to change!

Christmas parties are fun, dumb drama is just that, dumb and I am doing my best to ignore it. New Years is coming up fast so plans must be made and it looks to be a better one than normal which is good.

On a completely separate note, have I mentioned how much I LOVE She & Him? And Zooey Deschanel in particular?? Because I do, very much so. Like a wicked lot! Haha. I recommend checking out their CD, Volume 1, they have some great covers of “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot”, “I Should Have Known Better” and “You Really Gotta Hold on Me”. But my favorites are “Sweet Darlin’”, “I Was Made For You” and “Sentimental Heart”. So, to start off this week on a good note I give you the video for their single off of Volume 1, “Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?”:

a little Charlie Brown to go with the snow fall here in the Shire:

What a way to start my break…

I thought the impending snow storm would be my biggest worry, but I guess there were other plans.

O well, you just have to go with the flow.

I am just going to try my best and enjoy the winter snow fall, and maybe get lucky and find a holiday job! Let’s hope for the best

OOO on a good note, looks like the University finally came to their senses and I will be able to get credit for last semester! YAY!

Up next, I get back to my Daily Holiday Video trend with some words from Linus…

Double Daily Holiday Video!!!

Ugh…it was definitely a Monday, that’s for sure. The good news is that at least I wasn’t triple-dog-dared to stick my tongue on a frozen flag pole!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE A Christmas Story! Definitely in my top 3 favorite holiday movies. One day I will have my own leg lamp, one day.

I also caught up with my cousin and now have the perfect gift ideas for my friends. They should help to serve double duty and provide for a fun filled (and cheap!) new years

Daily Holiday Video – case of the mondays

It’s still raining in Los Angeles, and I LOVE IT! Finally a change in pace and I like having cooler weather for the cooler months. I should be careful driving those, cause these LA-ers get crazy bad when there is a little water on the ground.

Today, I have to turn in a final and paper, take model photos and hopefully meet with some Dean to get stuff figured out. Then back to finish the portfolio and I will be DONE for the semester!

So, since it is Monday, and raining in LA and snowing and who knows what else around the world, I figured you might need a little music to help start the day off right. Here is PS22 to wish you a happy Monday:

So far so good! I am actually staying on top of things and posting something everyday

Another day closer to going home, and hopefully all the power will be restored by the time i get back! It’s too cold for this many people to be without heat.

I think I might take a break tonight from finals work and take the kitty christmas card picture! haha, should be a fun time.

So, without further adieu, here is your holiday cheer:

Winter break is almost here! I just have to finish my portfolio, of which I have been HORRIBLE about procrastinationg from getting it done, turn in a final, pack and tie up the random loose ends before I fly out next week. I really can’t wait to be home. A huge ice storm just hit and it has been causing lots of problems, so hopefully we will get a little more snow and a lot less ice as the winter goes on.

Anyway, I should get back to working on my school stuff but I wanted to actually follow through with my new blogging plan for once! So to celebrate another holiday movie on tv, here is a great scene from Elf, with my favorite holiday song sung by one of my favorite actresses/musicians Zooey Deschanel:

So I am gonna try and update more often, even if it is just a picture I like or an article I found. To start it off and celebrate the season I am starting a Daily Holiday Video post! Hopefully I will be able to find the ones I want, but if not, get ready for some crazy awesome videos

What better way to start off than with Bowie and Bing?

The Holidays

The holiday season is finally here!! It has been a rough couple of months, but hopefully it will all be figured out soon. But to keep my spirits up, I am focusing on the upcoming celebrations!

Soon enough I will be back home in NH, where I feel like I fit in and can relax and enjoy the people around me, breathe the clean air, going skating on the pond, sledding down the hills and drinking cocoa while the snow falls. I can’t wait!

My Mom is coming back to NH for the holidays this year, so I’m not sure hwo that will work out, ro what she plans on doing for Christmas. I’m just not sure how I feel about it either. On one hand I am happy that she will be back, but mostly I am kind of upset with her. I know I should want her there for the holidays, but I am already dreading the awkwardness that is bound to happen. I don’t want to have to choose who to spend time with, and I feel like she is going to make me do that one way or the other with or without knowing it. That’s what was nice about her being out here and my Dad being back home. Thanksgiving was with her, and Christmas was with him and I didn’t have to think about it. I don’t want the holidays to be complicated, I want it to be simple and sweet. I don’t want to worry about who I need to please or who I am going to hurt, I just want to enjoy the break.

Oh well, here is to hoping it all works out better than I expect. I am going to try my best to make it a great Christmas and to spend time with the people who matter most to me. And I will of course be playing in the snow every chance I get!

Happy Holidays Everyone!
