Ouchhh

Number 35, another piercing!!!! I must say Incredible Ink is the best place to get your piercings done, every piercing and tattoo I have is from Incredible Ink. Due to fair prices and awesome staff I couldn't go anywhere else (this is the downtown location, I once went to the I-Drive one and someone was kinda rude). I tried to try one new place down 436, yaaa they were going to charge me $50 bucks to get my earlobe pierced on both sides. Yaaaa umm no?? The quality of the jewelery was not even that great and everything was really overpriced. Incredible Ink charged $30 and Piercing Pete had new jewelry come in, so we waited while he sterilized them and got the best :) Anywho my room mate and I (kay, shown in pics below, she got her cartilage done) went downtown and I got it done. It kinda hurt, you can see my face below, the initial reaction was worse but the camera didn't go off in time lol. Overall it was a fun night and I love my new piercings.








Number 35........

#42 color my hair :)


So the one on the left is during the process, I only did the bottom. And the one below is before!!





















So I was planning on doing the top and bottom different colors, but since I did it on my own I decided to go the safe route and only do the bottom. It doesn't seem like it would be very hard but I ended up having to find some very awkward and weird positions to make sure I was getting all of the spots and not leaving anything out!! It looks okay so far, but it isn't dry yet so we will have to wait until morning to see the end results.....very exciteddd!






Cont. on rice crispy treats

So i got tired last night and didn't finish blogging about the rice cripsy treat adventure. It started out ok, we all (mere, her bf, and me) got to Walmart and went inside to find the rice crispy box. But unfortunatly the Walmart was not a Super Walmart, and I guess they don't sell food. So we got in my Mazda and went to the SUPER Walmart off of 441 and there we found the stuff we needed. Marshmellows, Butter, and rice crispys treats....that was all that was required.
How to make rice crispy treats:
Melt the butter (4 tbl spoons)
Pour in marshmellows, slowlyyyy, and let them all melt
^^^^make sure you don't burn them and keep the heat low
When marshmellows and butter is all melted you take the pan off the heat
Then you slowly add in the rice krispies while stirring
When it is all stirred and goopy you lay it out in a pan (like you use for brownies) and let it sit
Then you enjoy :)

MAKE SURE YOU USE REAL BUTTER, BECAUSE I DIDN'T, AND MY CO-WORKERS COULD TELLL!!! THEY SAID IT WAS STILL GOOD BUTTT YOU COULD TELL THE DIFFERENCE AND IT WASN'T "SUGARY ENOUGH".

Overall making rice crispy treats was pretty simple, I still didn't taste any difference by using "I cannot believe its not butter" stuff but whatev!

Number 60, Rice Crispys Completed!!!





#69, Charity Walk....

For my number 69 Charity Walk I chose the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk. It is at Lake Eola, registration starts at 7am and it begins at 8am, it is on October 31st, I know it is halloween but it is in the morning before the parties. I chose this Charity Walk because it is personal to me, two of my aunts have had Breast Cancer (one still going through the process) and have seen how hard it is to overcome and the personal things you have to go through. My family is pretty close and I have seen the support and love go around, so now I am going to contribute by walking in this Lake Eola Breast Cancer event. If anyone is interested in joining my team or contributing please let me know, I am going to try and get shirts made, and if we get at least $100.00 donated we get event shirts. I am asking for just $5 for "The Pinkies," haha thats my team name, you like??? So far I have about fifteen people interested in walking with me, hopefully we will get the team bigger. I will have to update #69 after it happens with pictures and how it goes. Down below is the link to my contributing page, the link kept messing up so just copy and paste it in another window :) thanks and love you all!!

#64, Giving my longest best friend a place to stay <3


















Today Mere started to move her stuff in, so I think it is safe to say I can cross of number 64!! The room was an office or something before. I'm not really sure, but she is being given the boot and needs somewhere to go :) Plus some of you might not know when I left my ex I had no where to go and she let me stay with her. So now it is my turn to give back to her, which isn't to hard because I like living with her.
As of right there are four females in this house, 4 bedrooms (one makeshift) and two bathrooms. Let the fun begin!! Hopefully we will not kill one another, I think the best way to stay positive is to have complete opposite schedules.....jk so far not so bad. One and a half of us know how to cook (I say half because I am in the process, and it is on my list so only another half to go). And the other two do the dishes (I hate doing dishes, actually loathe them) plus vacuum the floor.

*I will have to keep this one updated, 4 girls in one house does not go on without consequences*

Tonight I will attempt #60, make rice crispy treats. I have heard it is a sin to have not made them before and I am interested how hard it is to make them (you have to keep in mind the only things I can cook are boxed items and baked ziti). Everything will be made from scratch too no cheating.
