It's pretty humbling...

doing the same project over 4 times. it wasn't even a real project, just a stupid technical project. Thankfully I wasn't the only one who kept messing up, a lot of people's film was acting up. I am debating on not even counting up the number of hours that equaled to nothing...But here it goes, 1 hour Friday, 5 hours Saturday, and 3 hours today...all to do one project over and over. And my other project that the same teacher assigned for the same class...as if we have nothing to do but photos, also did not come out so another 2 hours on Saturday wasted. I feel like I went backwards in time this weekend because Nothing was accomplished Saturday.

Sneak Date

Jeff and I have both been very very busy, which is sort of nice since neither one of us is always free and asking to hang out. We are just both busy so we hang out when we can. We sort of snuck in a dinner date tonight. It was short but sweet. Jeff ordered Jimmy Johns to deliver to the art building and he brought it into the painting studio and I took a break as we ate our dinner in front of my painting. It was perfect. I had starving and had not really been home to get food. And it was a nice little painting break. He is the greatest. Thanks for dinner boyfriend!

My Weekend

Okay to start out my weekend. I started Thursday, by having one photo shoot and developing one set of film. (about 3 hours of work to lessen my load on the weekend) Friday, I did Italian homework, I got a new ID and shoot more film, made myself eggplant parm(I got a double yolk in one of my eggs, it was the high point of the day), and spaghetti, then developed the film, and made 5 prints. I stayed up late....like until midnight, oh and Makenzie was there with me for most of the time. Saturday I was up early, around 7. I took the bunnies out to play. I got to the art building at 8, and did even more printing. I took a break to teach some yoga, and then back to finish developing my prints. Jeff and I made some pancakes, and then my parents came. I showed them around the art building and then went to panera for lunch. =) I then headed to the Library (all by myself) to find sources for my Art history paper. The poor girl at the desk got frustrated with me, because I did not really know what is meant when a teacher says they put books on reserve. I thought I could just look at them quickly, but since i left my ID and drivers license somewhere I could not look at them. I ended up going on a computer and printing out some really good articles. Then I was off to paint for a while. After painting I came back home, read my articles and wrote my perspectus for my paper. Makenzie came over and we made popcorn, and cookies, and watched Bridesmaids. This morning I slept until 8:45!! Very late for me. I took the buns out, ate bfast, dilly dallied on the computer for a while, went to church, Jacob and Rob and I went out to Clay Pot for lunch. Jacob ate more than I have ever seen him eat before. He even out ate me and Robbie. I came home and napped until the three of us met up again for Johnny English. Very Very funny! After that, I ran to the grocery store, literally threw my groceries in the fridge, grabbed my ipod and shoes and ran to teach spin. After I cooked up all my veggies, and beans, and quinoa for the week. I did not really eat a lot last week, I was too busy to make myself food, so I just ate a lot of rasins, and cereal. Now I am in bed, finishing up my relaxing day. Getting prepared for the week.

I gave myself an A+ for the weekend. Well maybe an A since I didn't get to see Jeff a lot. But he was busy, so nothing I could really do, So I regive myself the A+

buddy the trailblazer

Both buns were so happy to be outside today, since they missed their outside time Sat and Sun cuz we were down in Austin. Buddy likes to go in the deep weeds, that have been growing Very tall since it has cooled down, and we got rain like twice. But anyways, she hops into them, and she starts biting the weeds near their base, so of hacking a trail for herself. You can see it in one of the pictures. Robbie was out there too, enough though he is a stinker first thing in the morning and very reluctant to come out from under the bed. They both have such a great time outside, you would think they would know what was coming. And then there's my oatmeal and yogurt for breakfast.

things I am currently obsessed with

-Greek God Greek Yogurt. The Honey Strawberry flavor is my favorite. Although the Vanilla with a touch of orange and cinnamon is extremely good too. With almonds and or Nature Path's organic Flax and Pumpkin Granola.
-Fitsugar website. http://www.fitsugar.com/ I like websites that I can easily find new workouts that are super effective. Or just fun to browse around.
-The Fitnessista blog http://fitnessista.com/, this girl is like me. Teaching a zillion classes a week, and loves eating healthy. She posts recipes, photo of her meals (great ideas), and some of the hardest workouts I have found online.
-Dr McDougall's instant cup of soup. Tomato Basil Pasta soup, and Black bean and Lime. They are like SUPER easy, quick lunch, even for someone like me who doesn't have time to wash my hair during the school week. And they are good.
-Fun sized candy for Halloween. I have a stash in my locker and have three pieces a day. I have a lot of different kinds so I can have junior mints, gummy bears, milky ways, 100 grands, and peanut mms. =) but just a little of each.

Things I wish I could do well

I wish I could sing well. Sometimes I listen to my Glee songs, and wish I had a voice like Lea Michele.
I wish I could dance ballet. Not only is ballet beautiful, but the dancers carry themselves differently than regular people. They are also very very flexible, something I have never been very.

end of berry season

I am declaring it the end of summer fruit season. I have gotten some pretty watery, tasteless strawberries the past two weeks. This morning they were just as bland.
After my yummy breakfast I went out running with thousands of Austonians. It was so nice.

dinner on the balcony

I am down in Austin yet again, celebrating my Fall break. It's just really relaxing down here. I go to whole foods about twice a day. =) which makes me very happy. I went for a late afternoon run, and when I got back I did weights. I then walked to Whole foods to get dinner. I got an avocado, roasted red peppers, sun dried tomato, artichoke, lettuce, and provolone sandwich on chiabatta bread and toasted. I brought it home and ate it outside sitting our our porch looking out at the city. It was pretty, and peaceful.

wednesday night date night

Jeff and I decided to go on a date Wednesday, because he did not have rehearsal, and I felt confident that I did not want to stay in and study for my Michelangelo test. (which I think I killed big time) I got out of class late, like I usually do. So we didn't have dinner, and just went to a late movie at the dollar theatre. We saw Rise of the Planet of the Apes. It was great! I bought big candy bars awhile ago when they were on sale, and we ate some, which was also very fun. All in all, a great night. I love my boyfriend.

This picture was from yesterday when I noticed that we were completely un-intentially matching!

favorite part of the day

I didn't blog a lot last year, because it took everything I had just to stay sane. Now I just do not have time. Last week I was so busy I didnt wash my hair all week. I just did not have an hour to spare to dry and straighten it. My favorite part of my week, is usually monday and Wed morning when I can take the buns outside to run around. Its so fun, they really love it. Maybe because it's been getting cooler in the mornings, maybe because its when I have nothing to stress about getting done, maybe its because I am still sleepy and the happy bunny jumps seem even more hilarious than usual.

weekend in Austin

I spent the weekend, doing homework, watching rain, playing with the buns, going to whole foods, taking a bubble bath, and eating good stuff!

I spent most of my time doing homework and looking out at the Austin skyline.
