Pretty Lil Dresses

I swear Etsy has some HOTT dresses! Might have found this in a treasury, but it is amazing. I am going to lose weight and move to a town that has a hot club atmosphere and the buy this dress. Normally pink is not my color but look at this thing!
Decadent Designs is the creator of this amazing piece, the whole shop is pretty rockin in my opinion. "specializes in custom made cocktail dresses, evening wear, corsets, bustiers, pencil skirts and PVC club wear." I am not sure what PVC Club wear is, anyone wanna tell me?

Valentines Carnival

February 14th is Valentine's Day. What is your best childhood memory of Valentine's Day?

Honestly the school parties, they were always a blast! Dressing in pinks and reds. Sweets and treats. Making lil bags/boxes to hold valentines from classmates. The super cool cards and candies everyone gave!

This is my first single Valentines in six years. I honestly can say I want this holiday to be over with, just this year.... As I am a hopeless/hopeful romantic I am hoping to have some love by 2011.

Etsy Proposal???

If I ever find a man, who not only knows about etsy, but buy things there, I will marry him. Especially if he proposes using these magnets that I found on etsy Via treasury.
These are so cool, from sideproject on etsy! You can even add a name in there so it could be Beth (HEHEH) will you marry me? And if a man did this, a man I loved, I would say yes. Too bad I wouldn't have time to make some YES magnets. Or something equally as cool and arty. If you have seen my shop then you know I am all about fridge fabulous-ness.

This is perfect

To describe how I have been feeling since October. She even has red hair like me!

Why keep a journal?

"Taking a few minutes to write in a journal is an excellent way to get in touch with yourself. Before the hustle and bustle of the day begins, you can sit with a cup of coffee or tea and slow things down. Journaling can help you off-load so that you’re ready for the day. Journaling is a great way to focus on yourself. ...It’s a good self-awareness tool that can help you focus on areas that need work."
---------------------
Journaling is a way to store all those memories, the little and the big. Capture the moments. Much like a movie, set the scene, describe the players, direct the events, fill in with the proper amount of emotions...you are the writer, director... and dreamer. A journal does not have to stick to the facts, just the facts, it can and should veer off the beaten track. Make connections, pull in memories, make the mundane sing. © 2010 Associated Content, Inc.

So, what can a journal do for me?

a journal can...

* be a place to store all those random memories, those ones you think you'll never forget...but just might. Having a storage area of people you've met, places you've been, brief experiences you've had are priceless. No one else has the same collection. No one.

* the mix of these random thoughts, can provide connections that can be the catalyst for a song, a painting, a story, a script, a poem.....

* relieve stress. writing things out, puts a perspective on the events, helps distance yourself from the source of the frustration or pain and allows you to be subjective for a moment....or just vent!

*provide invaluable practice. it's true, practice does make perfect. The very act of journaling, makes you a more imaginative, confident, skilled writer. © 2010 Associated Content, Inc.

Independence

WOOOO

I am SO proud of myself. I have had an ipod shuffle for years and never worked on it myself, I always had "someone" put music on it. I just did not know/want to learn how. Now I DID IT ON MY OWN! So proud, so happy about this tiny accomplishment. Seriously it is an amazing feeling for this tiny bit of independence. Not feeling so lost. Not feeling like oh, "someone" did that for me, BUT I can do it for myself now!

I still want to share my small accomplishment with "someone".
