I LOVE HALLOWEEN!

Hey girls!

WOOO HOOO!!!!!! Today is the beginning of my HALLOWEEN celebration! I did lots of school work this morning and I still have Laryngitis, so whats better then watching scary movies all day! (Nothing good is on LMN!)
I am so excited, it is my 2nd favorite holiday! There is one thing I always do every October and starting today, I am in Halloween mode!

I always, always, always have a marathon of all of the Halloween Movies (Michael Myers!!!)
I love them, I read the story on the official website about each movie...every year! Then I start with Halloween I and go to Halloween H20! I have the other 2...but they suck! They are not classics like the rest of them. Halloween I and II are my absolute favorites! Jamie Lee Curtis does an excellent job as Laurie Strode! The suspense is just unbelievable! Considering Halloween I was extremely low budget it is an amazing movie...maybe some people could learn from that and realize every movie doesn't have to cost a million dollars and have special effects to be good!
I also make sure I watch the Halloweens on AMC! Yes...I am a little obsessed, but Halloween I and II could easily happen!
I also get scared EVERY YEAR! I remember...very much against my parents wishes, I watched Halloween II when I was 12, and I swear therapy was almost necessary because I could not sleep for a year!
My mom says that horror movies really shouldn't be my favorite, and I can see why I mean there is absolutely nothing Christian or morally right about them! But a good scare is fun sometimes, especially this time of year!
I bought Halloween I and II today and I have H20, Resurrection, and the newest one (that should be banned!) I cant believe in the newest one how that kid is so awful, I would never let my child star in a movie where he/she has to curse, or kill someone...I just think its awful!

Anyways, back in Salisbury every year my sweet parents throw an Oyster Roast/Hot Dog Cookout for the whole neighborhood, and anyone else who wants to drop by! You will never see as many golf carts in one yard! When I was home for Halloween, it was always so great and my mom makes the best Oyster Stew! I miss that tradition so much!
One time, this kid and his family came and they weren't from around the area but hey whoever wants to come is welcome! Anyways so he was making his hot dog and he was maybe 9...and my Dad...who always uses HUGE words sometimes I don't even understand said "Hey buddy, do you want some condiments?" The kid goes "YOU GOT CONDOMS!" HAHAHAHA! My dad was so embarrassed! It was too funny! What a great memory, the kid was so cute though, he was Spiderman!

One year, my friend Tom and I went and he had an old mans mask and an outfit to match it with a pillow to add some weight and I was his trophy wife! We went around to each house in the neighborhood to see neighbors and drop in on some cute parties! Oh, it was so much fun!!

Here are some pictures from Freshman and Sophomore year! I went to Franklin St. with the girls both years. Freshman year, I was an MC Cheerleader. Sophomore, me and my boyfriend (at the time) dressed as a Stepford Husband/Wife...I will never forget the big mean police officer took my self painted pink and green monogrammed wine glass! GEEZ! I warned him it wouldn't go with his outfit, but did he care? NO!

The next night, I was a bunny at a frat party! I absolutely love Halloween!

Have a great Sunday! (The one of me at the bottom my cute suitemate took and she says I look like Elle Woods...pshh but MY LORD it scares me!) ALSO, my how times have changed, cant believe I wore long sleeves on Franklin...modest little me!

In The Christmas Spirit?!

Hey girls!

Christmas is still a good ways away, but that doesnt matter to me because I listen to Christmas Music all year round!

I just found the best album, its by BarlowGirl and its called Home For Christmas.
I know, its a little early, but I am already listening. They are so good anyway, they are a great Christian girl band and I have always loved their music.

Even though I am a Christmas Fanatic, I am not ready for Christmas yet, that means half the year is over, and I am not ready for that quite yet!

I hope everybody has a great day!

What a happy,confusing, fun weekend!

Hey girls!

Again, so sorry my posts havent been daily yet, one of these days I am going to get back on top of it!

Great news first!

Oh my Lord! It is finally looking like the stalker situation is over! I am so happy about that! I look back now and I still am going to be very cautious, and also pray about 100 more times a day!

On another note, nothing sketchy has happened lately and thank goodness for that but I had totally forgotten that I had made 2 drs appts during the summer for this past Monday so not only did I get a long weekend at home with my family, but I also had a Beverly Hills 90210 weekend! I actually didnt go home until Saturday because a bunch of us went to Delta Sig on Friday night for a band party and they had the best 80's band! I have never heard such great music!

Well, my drs appts went well, but yes I am going to vent again! I had a routine physical, which I mean clearly that was fine! The only thing was I still get gosh awful bruises on my arms and legs, and I am still so tired all the time! So my doctor checked my b12 again, and its even lower then last time. So apparently the vitamins didnt work so now I have to get shots. Really, thats just fine with me though! The nurses at our health clinic are so sweet, and I really am just going to be glad to get to feeling better again!
At my other appt which was the dermatoligst, I had 2 more spots removed. 1 was absolutely no big deal I know for sure, I just got it gone to get it gone. The other one is in a very random place and when my hailarious doctor saw it (I have been going to her for years, shes very fun!) she goes "Oh my Lord!" Then she calmly looked me in the eye and said "its okay sweetie I treated a nun for the same thing not long ago!"
HAHA! A nun, with melanoma!
She told me by looking at the spot that she could tell it was most likely melanoma but it didnt look malignant which is great!
She even thinks she probably got it all out with a biposy, and more surgery is probable but probably not!
I just hate when doctors put the fear of God in you and then its totally fine, it makes me feel worse!
Oh well, atleast by the end of this week I will know whats in store!
Im sorry for all of the ranting!
Other then that, my week has been great though! Like I said, I got a long weekend, my roomate and I have started walking (and feeling safe) again! haha, and I made it back in time for One Tree Hill last night!
Did anybody else see it?! I love that show...im glad they killed the crazy nanny! What a bitch!

ALSO! I went to dicks sporting goods to find some of those cute nike tempo shorts, I love to walk in them! AND I came across the cutest hot pink north face fleece i've ever seen, y'all all need to find a Dicks Sporting Goods and go get one! It is so comfortable, then I went to Banana Republic, and Ann Taylor online! CUTEST stuff right now! It looks like fall stuff is finally coming out! So excited!

Have a great rest of your day!

Ill post more tomorrow!

Lordy Lord!

Hey girls!

Today is a much better day, I have a day full of meetings and class! It is good to be out of the house for a little bit.

Nothing major happened last night, so thats great! I am trying to find cute things to make a treat bag with. The adorable little guy that I babysit for loves prizes so I think I am going to go hunt down some candy and stuff. Any ideas?

Last night, I finally got my printer installed!! It is about time! I had to go and work at this thing for my publicity class from 8pm to 11pm and set up for an opening night reception. It was a bitch at first because HELLO I am a com major and I didnt know a soul! BUT later on into the night, I saw this guy who is a teacher and he apparently used to be a soap opera actor and out of the blue he came up to me and told me I looked like a politicians wife (black dress, yellow tweed blazer, gold flats) I told him that in this day and time you never know if thats a good or a bad thing. He told me I was attractive and it was a good thing and then he asked what I wanted to do when I get out of school. I told him about how my dream is to be on the Today show and he just kept talking about having faith and achieving goals and dreams. It was very motivational, and it just made my night! I loved it, and he is just the nicest fella!

I hope you all have a great Wednesday, I will post more later!
