Senioritis

Comments you'd hear from me lately:

*I've already passed all my classes; can I just skip finals??

*What can I cook up to go home early for Christmas? It's my sister's birthday . . . the Saturday after finals . . . I'll work it!

*To my friends: "Let's all go iceskating!! Oh, right, you're all studying . . ." (actually, I find the less I study, the better grades I get! :D )

*Well, my dorm room had to be decorated for Christmas . . .

*Studying while constantly keeping my eye on the clock: "Ope! I think it's time to eat again!" The book flies down. (See, I do study. ;) )

*To my friend's parents the day before Thanksgiving break: "Good thing Candace* and I planned on dressing like Pride and Predudice characters--it's the only reason we attended classes today!

Ssssssssssshhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta love a senior. :)

*Name changed to protect the guilty. hehe ;)

Back In Time . . . As Emma



My talented friend Crystal and I decided to toss the books and have fun this weekend, so we made (well, at least I ironed...and learned ;) ) this beautiful Jane Austen dress above. Tomorrow we are going to come to school as Jane (me--and another time I'll take on the role of Emma) and Lizzie Bennett (she gets the starring role because she has darker hair! :) ). Fun!



Here you can see more of the intricate lace work. We even had enough of this lace left over to make chokers. :)

Do I have sunglasses on in every photo???

As my favorite Charlie Brown says, "Good grief!"

Mary Kay-- ooo, la la!

I have been attending a multitude of MK classes in the past few weeks and learning a lot -- as well as having a lot of goofy pictures taken of my friends and I, most of which will NOT be disclosed here . . . ;) I attended this particular class with my friend's 82-year-old grandmother--what a peppy kick! I guess that back in the 1940s-'60s or so she made her way as a makeup artist and photographer. How cool is that! I need to get some '40s make up tips from her!








Mua and Crystal -- ooo ooo!

Mary Kay ;), mua, Crystal, Andrea (I feel so. . . tall :) YES!)
