you think I'm made of stone, I'm chiseled out of brick. I'm a vase that shatters, Holding such beautiful things.

Right now I am looking for Crochet for charity organization's in new york so that maybe I can give back by crocheting toys or hats for children.

I made this little cutie the other day, I have just named it Ruth. Isn't she cute!

I want to light up someones day, with something special just for them. I guess part of it is kind of selfish of me, because I enjoy making other people happy, but that's not wrong is it...?

I went the Envy on the Coast show Saturday, it was amazing! I have a new favorite song by them called "Made of Stone" that is where the title of this post comes from.

They are just so amazing live! I also fell in love with a new band that opened up for Envy called Twin Atlantic, and they are going to be at Bamboozle, so YAY!

Not much has been going on, basically I'm just enjoying the calmness of it all and getting my act together and all.

*Side note* The lyrics from "made of stone" just encapsulates the way I feel... I believe in this.

Yay for updates!

Finally got around to updating my blog,
When things are the same for too long I get tired of looking at it.
So right this very second I am listening to music and feeling inspired.

So inspired that I had a photoshoot today!
So like a week ago I made a hat with Dinosaur spikes and I got his Idea for a picture.

So out of all the ones that I took I picked my favorite and here it is....
Lol just looking at it makes me want to say RAWR!
and if Tyra Banks was around she would say "Fierce!"

(Why she would even be around is beyond me)

Haha, So it is the time of year that I break out all my Rock/Pop Christmas songs.

Currently listening to My Chemical Romance version of "All I want for Xmas"

Speaking of what I want for christmas... that was really hard this year,
I still don't know what I want.
I'm sure my fam will figure it out.....
That is I hope so....lol.
Well I think this post has had absoulutly no point other then to show off my Dinosaur hat. Hmmmmm. I don't know how I feel about that.
*Side note* Banana, U are in no way like "she who will not be mentioned" lol. Ur always working, I never know when ur free, it was an impromtu shopping trip, but do not fret banana, we shall make a trip soon... sooner then u think.....

100 a.k.a Trivia shows own.

I'm sitting at home watching reruns of Jeopardy.
This show will forever remind me of my Grandmother, She would always put it on and say to my cousin and I "I'll give you a $1 for every answer that you get right."
Memories.
This is Blog post number 100.
I have to say I am proud considering that I never usually keep these things up but I find it a great outlet to express myself through the written word.
sometimes I find myself walking around and thinking "I should blog this" but then I keep doing whatever I was doing and then I forget what it was I wanted to blog.
It's a process...
Anyway!
My favorite time of the year is coming up!
Christmas!
Now its not because of presents, it because all my family gathers at my aunts house and for some reason I feel like I am closer to all of them on that day, and now we have the most recent addition to the family, Isabella.
I plan on making her another blanket, I know how many blankets does a child need.
But this is a cool project that I am really excited about it,
Its going to look like a Polaroid.
Its going to be sooo Rad!
Well thats all for now....bye
*Side Note* I have been watching Ninja movies lately and I think I want to be a Ninja now.
*Side Side Note* Don't Judge

Up up and Away?

So there has been a lot of talk in the household of moving to Virginia.
This is something I am opposed to, Honestly, there is nothing for me there..
I mean my EMT licence is for NY and you can't get that transferred.
It's not like I'm trying to be difficult It's just that its so far from everything I love.
Virginia is not a city like NY, I wouldn't mind moving to Chicago, Florida or even Cali.
But how do you move a girl that grew up in Brooklyn, NY to Virginia.....?
They are not even comparable!
Anyway... Lately I have been getting back into drawing, I had kind of stopped because I have been super into crocheting. Here are some pictures of Crochet project i have been working on!!
The Raspberry Beret!

Granny Squares..

The Brighton Cowel

I haven't been taking a lot of pictures or blogging lately, I feel like i just don't have time and that makes me sad.

Goodbye: The word you're wielding like a knife...

I totally feel like I am in overdrive lately...
with work and all these events coming up it's like
"Ok, take a moment and breathe"
Mother's Day is around the corner and I still have yet to get my mother anything...
My Aunt's Baby Shower is in a few weeks
and the Baby blanket I have been working on is still a ways off from being done...
I have to start turning in applications for EMT work.
Nix will be home June 5Th and I have to get her from the Airport.
I have to get medical coverage which I have been putting off.
I need to get a check up like for reals.
So I really need to take a few moments and just kinda get myself together.
So yeah..
a Happy note!
I got a hair cut!
I like it but my mom hates it.
So shes kinda been riding me about it,
but like really what would you like me to do
It's not like I can make my hair grow super fast just to appease her.
I am totally going to own it. I dig it and that is really all that matters in this situation.
I kinda feel like riding a bike tomorrow, but I dont think my bike is in good condition right now.
So I might just go rollerblading tomorrow insead.
When I was younger I used to rollerblade all the time,
but then my parents moved me to Westchester..
Which is mostly Hills....
Which sucks for rollerblading....well that is unless you have a death wish.
But in my recent travels,
I found this concreate trail where people ride bikes and run on
so I thought I might go there and embarass myself.
Lol.
This is going to be an adventure.....

I went to bed with a shirt and woke up without one.

SO I haven't been doing much lately, I have been a lazy bum and super boring....

Crocheting has taken a large chunk of my days and I have been gathering more and more patterns online.

I have also been taking Knitting classes, I think I'm getting better, I found this Pattern online for the mittens Bella wears in Twilight but I'm not good enough to make them yet....

.....and today I bought Socks!!
I am like totally in love with this website:

They have every sock you can Imagine, and lately I have been into OTK's (over the knee) Socks.
So I bought 3 pairs today....Don't Judge...
1. Rainbow!!!!
2. These are Obasic's, the color is called Natural but their just Beige in my eyes but I like them!
3. These are the Long Cuffable Scrunchable Socks, I love the Color!


Sometimes you just can't help it.......

Side note* My sister was in the car with me and randomly asked me If I would ever set a hobo on fire.... To which I stared at her with a quizical glance....and then replied "...No... Would you?...." To which she said " Maybe ....it might be funny" What is wrong with her......!

I've become content with this life that I lead, Where I drink to much and don't believe in much of anything...

Lately I have been crocheting up a storm. I made 2 hats!!

I am sooo proud of myself!

I printed out a pattern online and stayed in my room until I figured it out, which I did.

So now I want to learn how to knit. I will be taking classes in Feb when I get back from Ireland. I can not wait, until then I will be trying my hand at making a Afghan... Why is it called that AFGHAN... What does it even mean Aaaa..Ffff...Ggg..Hhhhh...Aaa...Nnn.

Why not just say blanket. What ever, I have to ge back to my Crocheting.
Look as these super cute T'shirt designs from...
