Oh what a gift!!

Imri gave me the most perfect megan gift for Christmas.

Oh what an effen day thus far...

It started here:

Then we played speed scrabble...
and I lost so I had to make this:(with Imri's help)

Then we were productive a bit.
Took some pictures.
Then we hit this up:

How'd you get all that meow, all the meow inside that mix?!?!

Sometimes we like to get fancy. Sometimes I get suckered by those people at the mall who ask what kind of lotion I use and I end up spending WAY too much for skin care treatments from the dead see... (I'll get you Itai). Sometimes we watch really depressing movies late at night. Sometimes my car leaks when it rains. Sometimes I blog from Imri's mac book. Sometimes we go out for breakfast. Sometimes I fall asleep to Kaldean doing a shadow puppet show. Sometimes I get my Urban Outfitters shiz in the mail. Sometimes I laugh at my own jokes.

I'm just one of those peole who loves a bit of cake. CAKE!

Somethings that I currently love:

1. Crafting Christmas gifts
2. Crocheting/knitting Christmas gifts
   
3. Winning scrabble (note: win was made possible due to a main competitor declining to play)
4. Fionn in the car.... Fionn Regan any time!
5. Little Britain (and when people quote it)
   
6. Giving shout outs to Tim Glenn
   
7. The book Believing Christ
   
8. Hand and Himri
   
9. Trader Joe's

Something that I don't currently love:

1. Thinking that it's going to be hot outside and dressing accordingly then being freezing
   
2. losing bets in line at Trader Joe's
   
3. questionable weirdness between individuals
   
4. finding hair in your food
5. talking about finding hair in your food while your eating
   
6. hearing that Tim's car got broken into and all his stuff stolen :(
   
7. people studying for/preparing for finals... boring!
   
8. stomach aches
   
9. too much sugar

If that list made you sad, than this will make you happy: be good or be gone

Never go against a visional arts major when creativity is on the line…

Hans and I made cookies for people. This cookies were not your average chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies, these cookies represent the recipients' souls.kaldean got a magic witch

Cassie got a robot wearing a diaper. Melissa received a kitty with a "meow."

My cookies designs were on a 3rd grade level. I felt like a 3rd grader with frosting all over my hands too. Hans' skill is more on the high paying sculpture level, he was very detailed with his sushi and boot cookies.

I GOT IN!!!!!!

I received a letter in the mail today that informed/congratulated me on being accepted into Seattle University's Grad school! I think at this point I can humbling say "I'M AWESOME!!"

Some thoughts...

I want to be a personal trainer! I love bossing people around at the gym and saying "good job" and "5 more and come on you get this." I would tell people to take their favorite treat, chocolate or cake (Oh I love the cake!) and cut it in half... then it's just half the calories so they can eat twice as much.
There mare a few challegenes in the way of this desire. #1 I don't know all the names of the muscles. I just point to my arm or my legs and say we're going to work this. #2 I would have to become friends with other personal trainers. why is this so bad? let me make a not too accurate blanket statement personal trainers usually = meetheads. and #3 I love sugar too much!

duvets and gussets

Where do I start? I'm back in Seattle. And my skin is grateful.

While I was in Utah I realized that I have some funny girl friends. Kate, Court, and I had an evening out. I laughed so hard the inhale was present. I'm not sure if we did anything really awesome, but I had so much fun. We laptoped, we determine what dress looked the hottest , Tim came over, Kate made everyone ice cream plus milk mixture and court loved the phrase "dust? anyone? no?"

Back in Seattle Imri, Hans and I may or may not have done some yoga moves. There was talk of pilates and a short attempt at the 100. Glad to be back.

I also decided to face the ugly beast of drama head on. So far results appears to be successful.

Explaining Seattle to Utah

Being back in Utah I get questioned about my life in Seattle a lot. Since I don't currently go to school or have a job my normal response to basic questions is "no." For example: "So do you have a job in Seattle?" "Are you going to school up there?" "Do you have a lot of gay friends now?" "Have you found how Stella got her groove back?" and "what do you do all day?" A "no" response to these question has a negative connotation, which leads people to believe that I am not contributing my part to society. Lucky for me I planned a pre-emptive strike before I came to Utah to avoid such judgments.

The plan is two fold.
First, I prepared responses and deceivers for common questions. This is how it’s done: when people ask what I’m doing in Seattle I say waiting to hear back from Seattle U's grad school. The trick is to emphasis the words “grad school” and then quickly mentions the crazy interview. At this point I go off on how weird the interview was and get people focused on that. Now these individuals aren't even thinking if I'm a valuable member or society, they're thinking "what would I have done in that interview" or "that is really weird."
This brings me to the second portion that I prepared- the pictures. I ask if they want to see pictures of my life in Seattle (pictures shown below). And they’re thinking, “Oh who is this attractive individual" and "That Megan appears to be a delight to be around." At this point I have successfully presented myself as a fun, intelligent, creative, easy on the eyes, well rounded, punctual, clean, healthy, energetic, tired, fashionable, hospitable, social, little gem.

It's that easy. meow.
