Finally.

My presentation is over with and now I have a moment to breathe although a brief one because the end of the semester is rapidly approaching. However I am taking a break to give my self a pat on the back for working so hard to get this presentation well up to presentable form. And because of that a trip to Target and Michaels is in order. I need to pick up some gifts and a few craft supplies (Twilight inspired craft alert!)

Speaking of Twilight I went and saw New Moon on the 20th and OMG it was amazing. I cant wait to see it again, My mind was racing the first time and now I wanna see it again to get a better grasp on it. I love Edward but Jacob was <3 soo adorable. This means that Im now back in Twilight obsession mode, which explains the Twilight craft and my obsessing over all things Twilight, btw I cant wait for my journal set to get here from Amazon!

This past week was Thanksgiving and also Black Friday, which was a total disappointment this year. Nothing really good on sale and the stores were still packed to the point where I didn't want wait in line so I just left. I did however get my treasured Mickey Mouse Snowglobe from JCP, which I have started collecting the past few years. I got two (I stole Zach's) but the one is really skimped on snow, I like to refer to it as recession snow, its still really cute. Other than that nothing great, I did get a bunch of cute Christmas undies at Aerie and they actually had my size, I was soo happy. Got some books too as HPB but nothing spectacular there either. New PINK dogs came out too! They are soo cute this set but there are 6 of them! Luckily Zach and I were heading back up to school which means we were able to hit 3 malls and with both of us making a PINK purchase to get the dog it worked out perfectly. I really would like another set since I actually like them this time but certain colors are really limited and with only being able to go to my mall its sort of a hassle, and I dont really wanna start another set and end up not being able to get all the colors. ehh, we'll see.

Photos of the new additions to my collection (excuse my new waffle maker lol)


I love them especially the 2 blue ones! Problem is not I need to find room...eep!

Bit by the shopping bug.

So this weekend I kinda went shopping crazy. But everything I bought was on sale or I at least had a good coupon for it. So its ok I guess.


Old Navy was having a 50% outerwear sale and 30% with an ON CC so it made for super good deals. In total I ended up getting 3 coats, plus one for Zach. Yup 3. My reasoning is that I live more than half my year in coats so I need more than 1 for style purposes. I got a classic black trench and 2 winter coats. I cant wait to wear them!


The black non-trench is gonna be my everyday coat. But I absolutely love the buttons on the blue jacket, so it might compete with the black




I also stopped at Aerie Friday night. I had seen this nightie on the website and it just screamed birthday to me. So I checked and Altoona had it so I wanted to try it on and see if I could wear it as a dress. Turns out I totally can! I don't know why they have this under nightie, its not outrageously sexy and I certainly wouldn't wear it to bed but oh well. And with my 40% it came to pretty cheap and a good price for my birthday dress. With a cute pair of tights it will be perfect!

I also picked up some more stuff at Aerie, some adorable plaid slippers and this cute clutch with a bow on it.

Overall a really good shopping trip!

Lacking importance

Yup that's this post. Nothing really significant is going on. I'm still really tired from being sick and school is getting busy cause its that time of the year so Im just kinda blah.


Yesterday I went and got my monthy Aerie A-list gift (it's perfume) and I stopped at Bath and Body Works too. I had a coupon and once I realized they had their new lambie items out, I knew what I had to get.


The newest addition to my lambie collection! He's extra soft too, his face is like the inside of a new sweatshirt, its wonderful. I also got the new PS I love you body spray, its smells so pretty.

Tonight Im heading to Old Navy for their outerwear sale, hopefully I can find a cute new jacket or maybe 2. Also I might buy this gorgeous new nightie from Aerie, that I will wear as a dress for my birthday...yay for shopping!

Ciao,
Amanda

The plague

Yup Im pretty sure I had it last week. Im still trying to get over it but I couldnt miss anymore work or school so Im trying to stick it out today. I feel very frowny. Due to that my blogging has been less than stellar and until I get everything back under some sort of control its still gonna suck. Sorry.


My crafting has been sucking it up too. I have lots of projects and supplies EVERYWHERE but no time or energy. That sucks as well. I found cheap fur for a vest project and other just plain cute fabric for something, its fabric I've been lusting over for a while. I even got it for $1/yd but I cant use it yet.....

I wanna DIY this tee too, its cute!




I have more to post but Im too exhausted to think.
