What a Week!

This week has been super crazy with school (3 tests! Yikes!) and work. And on top of all that craziness, Shaundawg broke her foot. But first, my week in review:

Emo Easter Eggs

Easter Sunday the fam got together and dyed Easter Eggs. All of mine were emo eggs except for my James Blunt and Smithers eggs.



I had actually done a way cooler purple egg of The Black Parade, but my sister smashed it. On purpose. Grrrr.


This egg is my dedication to Emo Kid. Last semester I had Intro to Forensics with this way cute kid. I have no idea what is name is (I think it might be Jason), but one day he wore a MCR t-shirt and I HAVE THE SAME ONE. I think he is absolutely adorable and I still see him all the time at school. Maybe I should talk to him. . . .

And of course, one for Gerard.

Shaundawg Breaks Her Foot

So Tuesday, Shaundawg slipped on a dress at work and broke her foot. They didn't know if she needed surgery or not, so they didn't cast just yet. Well, I was playing around with her crutches and whilst I was doing so I jumped on the couch. I had slippers on and totally fell backwards, like flying through the air. And my head landed right on Shaundawg's (uncast) foot. I felt so awful. Even though the screw from the crutches had left a small gash on my wrist, I was so worried about my mom I didn't even care. However, when she went into the doctor, he looked at her first x-ray and said she would definitely need surgery, but he decided to take another x-ray just to be sure. The second one looked better than the first. Yeah, my head had straightened out her foot. I just have a miracle noggin.

The heater in our house wasn't functioning so we put one of my fuzzy socks over mom's cast so her toes wouldn't freeze off.


Snowflake taking advantage of the fact that Shaundawg can't hobble up the stairs to her bed.

12 More Days!!!

Less than two weeks to the greatest show ever!!! I am so excited! I can't wait to see MCR again.


Pick an outfit

I already have 3 MCR shirts and a jacket, but I thought it would be coolio to have something new to wear to the concert. I have to pick fast if I want it in time though. I do have a favorite, but I would definitely appreciate second, third, fourth, etc. opinions. Place your votes people!

Option #1

I just saw this shirt on their website and I love it. If I can't get it for the concert, I may just wear it anyway.

Option #2

I am in love with this hat. It is so cute. I want to wear the t-shirt over a long black shirt. The front is hard to read in this picture, but it says, "Gerard's Personal Assistant: You want him, you gotta go through ME"




If you have any other ideas, please let me know! P.S. I am thinking of dying my hair black for the occasion, but that might be a little extreme.
iPod picks of the week:
"Nine in the Afternoon" - Panic! At the Disco
"I've Just Seen a Face" - Jim Sturgess (Across the Universe Soundtrack)
"Here I Stand" - Madina Lake
"I Shall Not Walk Alone" - The Blind Boys of Alabama
And I'm feelin' a little "Cemetery Drive" and "Skylines and Turnstiles" too.

Hope your day is fabulous. Because you are!

Vote for David Cook!!

I love American Idol! And I have my favorite pick for this year: the ultra cute David Cook! I LOVE him! I would almost say he is as good as Chris Daughtry. He is so amazing. I've got his version of "Eleanor Rigby" on my iTunes. I love it. So vote for David every week! Woot! Woot!


P.S. New favorite song this week: "Jersey" by Mayday Parade

Happy Pi Day!

Yes! My inner nerd is coming out. Today is 3/14. Woohoo! Kudos to wheels, cakes, buttons, and all other things circular.



In other news, I finally saw The Goonies! A couple months ago I bought this:

My very own Goonies lunch box! However, I had never seen the movie. Haha. Whoops! I just loved the skull and the pink/green plaid interior.

Today my mom and I stopped by Target and they had the DVD for ten bucks so we bought it and I thought it was hilarious. My favorite part is Chunk's confession:

"But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I love it!

Just for fun



HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!




Friday was my birthday and I am now of legal age to buy alcohol. :) My bro was in town for an interview with the BYU MBA program so all the family was together for my big day. We had dinner and presents. I got an emo balloon too. Well, not really emo, but it was black. And then we had cheesecake. We were going to have ice cream cake, but Shaundawg schruted that. :)


I have the greatest news too! I got my tickets today for the greatest concert of all time: My Chemical Romance!!!



These are my boys!!! I <3 the one in the middle.
Also good news! I made the top favorite people list of Kimm Hanni! Check it out: http://shimmdoctor.blogspot.com/ This is Angela's sister and she obviously has impeccable taste to choose me as one of her favorite people.
