Well I'm not too sure where to begin. I feel like I'm writing an entry in my journal because they all pretty much start with, "Well it's been *insert number of years* since I've written and nothings happened really. Although of course things have happened because I'm pretty sure it's impossible for years to pass with nothing happening, unless you're some forgotten inanimate object which I am not. It's just that you forget all of the little seemingly unimportant things that have happened which is why you're supposed to write often in your journal to begin with, and what is a blog if not an online journal. So maybe I'll be better about updating, though we can only hope so much. So now the question burning in the hearts of the two people who read my blog is "Where will she start?".
Well since I've already forgotten most of what's happened since last semester I'll just start with where I am now... which is definitely not asleep where I should be. But in a nutshell, I went to LA on a makeup trip. Learned lots. Saw lots. Didn't take enough pictures.
Here's a zombie makeup I did for my class

After that it's pretty much been Josh, school, work, and writing. I haven't got a whole lot new to report on the writing front expect that if I don't hear from my author friend by a certain deadline I'm contacting a local author who wants to publish me regionally. So that's potentially exciting!
Josh and I still have no date set for the wedding but we figured we should sort out all of my mysterious medical issues first. The first one debunked is my nasty habit of falling over when I walk. Now for years people have just said I'm clumsy and that's why I fall over when standing perfectly still, or clip the corners or doorways and such, and while that's probably pretty true, at least I can chalk some of it up to some inner ear damage as described by my ear doctor who I refer to as "Trav"or "The Travster" depending on the day. There's no medicine or anything I can take for it so I'll be going to physical therapy to sort out the whole 'falling onto complete strangers on the sidewalk' thing. Well as I'm sure my two faithful readers know, I'm about to graduate... in a few days actually. This is quite an exciting stepping stone in life, though slightly less exciting when I think about the prospect of having to be an adult and such. Either way, something's bound to happen when I graduate. Something along the lines of adult-y maturity. So we shall see. I'll keep you two updated, and hopefully not with years between posts.
Next and probably least important to most but quite important to me: the latest things I'm obsessed with. Though in this case we'll just say 'thing' because it's really only one thing taking over my life right now and that's Dr. Who. The best show in the world. It's on BBC so it's a bit hard to find the newest season, though the older ones I just check out from the library or watch on youtube. Either way, it's brilliant and you should watch it. Though watch it from the new beginning... you see it's been running since 1963 but the newest series of it started in 2005 with Chris Eccleston as the Dr. and that's where you shall start. Also, the new companion in season 5 which just started (Amy Pond) has been said to look like me so that makes me feel pretty awesome since in fact she travels through space and time and I usually only travel through space... quite slowly... in my car.
This is Amy Pond... who I maybe/hopefully/sort of look like... according to people.
So we'll call this next segment my 'picture of the post'... since 'picture of the day' requires more commitment to actually posting every day. So this lovely picture is a shot of my future niece Brynn after eating an Olympic torch ice cream cone that Rachel (one of my two readers and soon to be sister) made. I pretty much just love this picture for many reasons. 1. The scrunchy nose. 2. The ice cream EVERYWHERE. 3. the fact that it's Brynn. and 4. Can I say the scrunchy nose again?
And that's all for now.
The End.
