Ryan and I being silly. I also have a cat in my lap
Hello everyone! Sorry that I have been gone for such a long time.
It's just been "ughhhhhhhh" lately.
College kindof sucks. I like being here, but I hate my classes. And I have so many classes and a job so I don't have time for anything. :P

I was in a craft show with Ryan over the weekend. We made $100ish.
It was very successful.
Oh, and that picture is of me knitting a cowl with my loom for my friend Nathan.

We are so very happy!
Ryan might be getting his old job back! He went in and talked to the manager and he said that he would be on 30 day probation and blah blah blah but HE MIGHT GET HIS JOB BACK!! <333333
Yay!

Some not so good news is that the art shows we have been going to were complete busts.no one would come and if people did come they would ignore us completely.
We are not going anymore, but I made an etsy shop for Ryan!
go check it out! http://onthefloorstudio.etsy.com

Fun news everyone!!
Ryan and I are both participating in a free, local art show!
Fine arts only, sadly, so I can't bring any of my jewelry or anything. I am armed with my new business cards though!!

Wish us luck!

UPDATE
Ryan doesn't have to move out!
He talked to his mom, and they worked some things out.
I know it's lame for him to live with his mom, but it's better than being homeless.
He will be moving when Kaitlyn's crazy mom moves out of Kaitlyn's apartment.

Just a quick personal post here.
So I graduated. Now I am currently taking 2 college classes. So much for a fun summer.
My classes are nice though.

Ryan is having a lot of trouble right now.
He finally got a job and I managed to get him enrolled at the school I am taking classes at. He is very happy about going to school :)
He hates his job. He was going to move out with our friend Kaitlyn but some bad things came up. Kaitlyn's mom is getting a divorce and is currently staying with her. Her mom will not let Ryan even move his stuff into Kaitlyn's house, let alone have him stay there. She hasn't even met him, but she thinks that he will steal her stuff. I have never met her mom and when we go to her house her mom is never there and she doesn't even have her stuff there. I think this is all ridiculous.
On top of all of this, Ryan has until Monday to move out.
On the brighter side, I finally updated the shop. I added a bunch of stuff and there are still some things that I haven't listed, like pillows and more burners. I HATE listing things. It just takes so much time!
If you have some extra time, you should go look :)

Graduation is next Saturday.
I passed all of my finals and classes.
Aide - Pass
Photography II - A; and I am certified in Adobe Photoshop CS3
Ceramics I - A
Trigonometry/Precalculus - B
American Government - A
Science fiction/Fantasy (English) - A
I am graduating in the top third of my class. I am actually the cutoff of that top third.
I am graduating with 27 credits. Credits needed to graduate: 22.5; I am getting the advanced diploma for that. Requirements for the advanced diploma: 24.

I am registered for summer classes at Western Nevada College. I will be transferring from there with 9 credits under my belt. I am registered for fall classes at the University of Nevada, Reno. I am moving to the dorms in Reno alone. Ryan cannot come with me to Reno. We will be a 45 minute drive apart and we don't have cars or licenses.

So, today was my (early celebration) anniversary. (The actual date is the 31st/1st).
We had a lot of fun. we went out to eat at a very fancy restaurant. We went there for Valentines Day too. It was fun. I got Ryan two sketchbooks, colored pencils, and charcoal pencils. He really liked them. I also baked him cookies from scratch. They are so good!







Before we went to eat, we went to Hanifins, which is a GREAT antique store. It's my favorite one that we have here. Ryan bought me a 1985 book about birds and a 1957 copy of a history book. I bought a trophy that looks like an oscar for a school project.
After we ate, we went to get dessert (at like 1pm haha) and then we went to an awesome thrift store. I got an owl hot plate, an owl salt or pepper shaker from Virginia City, and then two owl candle holders for less than $6!
We came back to my place and watched 500 Days of Summer. Or rather, he slept and I crocheted.
Speaking of crocheting, I made 7 new scarflettes! Woo! I also made 2 pouches and 6 ipod cases. I am very proud of myself.
I love you, Ryan. Happy Anniversary.

I'm very excited for Christmas.
I honestly love shopping so much.
It's one of my favorite things to do.
If you gave me a whole day and $100, I could make it last through at least 5 stores.

Benefit #1 of being poor for a majority of your life - You can make your money stretch.....a lot

I forgot to mention the other day, I got a $1000 scholarship from UNR for my GPA combined with my SAT scores.
If my ACTS are better, I can get $1500. I won't know until April though. Also, my scores don't come in until the 28th. Oh well.

Anyway, since Ryan actually has the holiday off this year, he is going to go with his family (oh how I loathe his family). We are going to be opening our presents for each other tomorrow night :)
However, my dad is going to be showing up tonight/this morning at 2am. Yippy.

wish me luck because this time I'm not taking my nose ring out.

So, a lot has been going on.
I passed all of my finals and I have A's in my US Gov't, Sci-fi, Ceramics, Photography, and TA classes (I got received a B in trig/pre-calc).
As you know I have been accepted to the University of Nevada-Reno!
However, my shot record was not kept properly at the cheap doctors office I used to go to, so they never recorded that I got a Tetnas shot back in 2005, so I have to get another one before I start school again in the Fall.
I decided that I am going to major in History. I have no clue what kind of job I'll be getting with that, but I'm used to being a poor kid so it will work out.
Ryan and I started buying stuff now that we know we are definately moving to Reno in the summer.
So far we have:
a toothbrush holder (I made it in ceramics).
plates and mugs
a measuring cup
a 2010 kitten calendar
silverware (it's really nice)
paper towel holder
15 dish rags
a desk
3 pots
1 skillet
lamps (my mom said she would give me the two she doesn't like).
and a Hello Kitty toaster that my mommy bought for me for Christmas.
We have other things too (like tv's and computers and stuff) but I need some more stuff.
My mom also said that she would give me $500 when she does her taxes. :)

My friend Anthony is moving back from Washington so he can move in with us when Ryan and I move to Reno. I have a great plan too. I will "live" at the dorms and at home with Anthony and Ryan. I will have some stuff at UNR and pay for living there so I can get the dorm perks like free internet and a meal plan and I will have everything else at the apartment. It is a grand plan.

Anyway, I'm really excited. I talked my mom into getting me a cat for my graduation present. She is helping me find a home for the guinea pigs (they are going to a nice gay couple. One of them works at the pet store too!)

Oh, about the shop, I really want a lot of my inventory gone ASAP. It's not that I want to close it down, it's just that with so much going on it would be easier to not have to worry about getting packages out right away like I usually do. So if you want anything from my shop, just email me (xohellogoodbyexo[at]gmail.com) or comment me and we can work something out. I usually go for any type of trade and I do bargins.
I also listed some prints in a new section. Ryan has been getting a lot better at painting. They look incredible. I'm currently talking him into taking a another trip to kinkos to make prints to sell.

Anyway, I have to start cleaning the house. By the end of Christmas vacation I will make sure to post at least one picture of my room.
Hectic life = too busy for everything.

Maybe after I clean I will play video games.
That sounds really nice :)

Ryan got new glasses by the way....

FOTC

I want Ryan to do Jemaines part.

Outdoor Portrait Assignment with Ryan

Saturday Looks Good To Me

What I did last Saturday...
- I admired my ring that Ryan gave me on Friday (it's real too :D).



Here's me...



Here's Ryan...


- We went out to eat at the Nugget. For those who don't live in Nevada, it's a casino here in town. They have great fries. (These pictures are with the camera phone)

Here's Ryan eating...



Here's my breakfast.





- Then we found where the sidewalk ends. It saddened us greatly.



- We also found lots of construction.
They have been building a road through my neighborhood for 4 years.
They REALLY need to HURRY UP!!!



- We went to go rent movies at Hollywood video. We found Justin, MIkey, and Roy there!







Good movies:







Epic Cover:



What we rented:



The End.

Why I'm Lucky...

Wow, third post of the day.

Reasons why I'm lucky:
- I have a boyfriend that really loves me



He's a cutie. He's also working very hard on our book, relationship, and to get a new car.

- I made tons of sales and trades last week



I bought this awesome bag from theboldbanana with some of my profit :)

So I'm pretty much doing great now that I'm looking at it this way.


My life is filled with beards.

First Photo Assignment : Surgical Gloves

OMFG

Just look at this picture
Left: Jermaine Clement
Right: Ryan Hunny Face


I rest my case.

Does Anyone Else Think This Is Weird?

Ryan's mom is a big creeper.

Reason 1: She hates me.
Reason 2: She always has him give her neck rubs.
Reason 3: She made THREE comments TODAY that he has sexy/nice legs.

I rest my case.

Ce visage me fait sourire. Il est beau. Il est merveilleux. J'ai adorer.

YAY!

I made two sales and a trade!

Very very happy.
I made a whole ::drumroll:: $11!

hahahahaha!!

Anyway, I finally sold Ryan's bracelet...





He's such a cute little model.
