I love Ann for her awkwardness and I totally knew she was going to win from the beginning. I am ashamed to say that I kinda started missing it this season, but it's up against Hell's Kitchen. What's a girl to do? Oxygen plays marathons of whole seasons of ANTM on Saturdays sometimes so I look forward to catching up on the whole season. But I was very happy to see that Ann won. Yay!!

What are you reading?
Started almost 6 years ago · Last post over 1 year ago ·
They had this HUGE vampire display at my local library for Halloween, so I just got done reading this book called Mozart's Blood by Louise Marley. It was pretty good, but it took me forever to read. It just didnt get me hooked like some books. Now I'm reading Skinners:Teeth of Beasts by Marcus Pelegrimas. Its really good. But at the same time....my guilty pleasure lately has been these dime-a-dozen vampire/werewolf/whatever supernatural thing novels. They're good books and I enjoy reading them, but I feel bad because there's just so many of them, it seems like there just can't be any substance to them...But i read them anyway lol

christmas gift ideas
Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
I make Christmas ornaments every year for everyone. So far this year I've made some like the last featured project, Pleated Paper Flowers, I think. They turned out really nice. Last year I cut stars out of old jeans and then put scraps of ribbon and glitter and sequins and stuff on them.

haha, my boyfriend, who has been against Harry Potter from the beginning (he's Irish, so he thinks he needs to hate all things British--lol) actually said he wants to see that movie, he said it looks good even if it is Harry Potter. LMAO, I can't wait!!!

Tattoo Question..
Started over 2 years ago · Last post almost 2 years ago ·
I have 7 tattoos, 6 black and one color. The color one is my oldest, about 5 years, and although it's not as colorful as when I first got it done, it hasn't faded anymore. They will always be more vibrant right at first, while the ink is still fresh in your skin.
On a side note, do not ever get a ring tattoo. It hurts like a bitch, it's the worst pain ever, it made me faint and I have a high threshold for pain, (I have pierced myself in the past) but that was so bad, and on top of that, it totally fades from your skin. My ring is completely gone on the inside, the palm of my hand, and sorta faded on the outside. So yeah....skip the finger tats...lol

How can I make this skirt look more casual??
Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
Wear it over some jeans. It's a cute way to dress down a skirt and good for winter months when you want to wear your cute skirts but it's too frickin' freezing. lol

True Blood
Started about 3 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
I haven't watched Season 3 yet but I've read most of the more recent books but not the first ones. So while I know what happens later...I don't know what just happened now!!!! I don't get HBO so I have to wait until it comes out on DVD. I can't wait!!!! I love Eric and Pam, they are great, so funny and their dynamic together is just amazing. One of my fave lines from Season 1 is when Bill says something to Pam about being up Eric's butt and she says "It's nice, you should try it." LMAO love them :D

Ghost in the Shell
Sailor Moon
anything Miyasaki, esp. Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle
