Frustrated:(

WOW!!! So trying to learn AutoCad is very very frustrating:(
I am sitting here on my laptop and trying to figure out how to draw lines which is very easy but then I zoom in, and then when I zoom out.....ugh I then can't see my whole rectangle and when I try to get my rectangle on the screen I lost the whole image I was trying to build and then could not find it:( ugh maybe I will just stick with adobe illustrator I know how to use that program. However if I keep putting off AutoCad then I will never learn it:(

Geez I wish it was just an easy program to use. And perhaps it is once you know what you are doing. Maybe I just need someone to show me the ropes? I don't know. If I don't learn now, I want to learn over Christmas break, but see that's me just putting it off again:( Oh well.

Maybe I just have to sit down with it for a couple of hours, when I have more time and learn. Start with simple steps. Like I do know how to draw a rectangle and a circle. But I need to know how to walls for when I draw building plans and sections. That's it I will start simple, maybe that will get my hopes up:)

If anyone has any pointers let me know:)

My Two Front Teeth

"All I want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth"
Ah that's all I wanted when I was 9. But that's not the case now. I don't know, for some reason this year I have no idea what I would like for Christmas? Its baffling, because usually there is something that I am in need of, but this year nothing and I have no idea what to get members of my family!!:(

But then today I had an epiphany!!!! I was checkin' out the New England Patriots game stats on the NFL website, because I am extremely devoted to the Patriots!! Favourite team ever!!! And there was a link to their shop. So they had jeans and ball caps, but now the site has Jerseys for women and that's what I would like, a Patriots Jersey. I have yet to decide though if it should be with my last name on the back and my favourite number or with the quarter back's name on it and his number....I think I will go with my name:) Here a photo above for help:)

But yeah, so now I know what I have in mind for Christmas, but what should I get the rest of my family. My sister is easy because hey I can go to the mall, into a clothing or make-up store and find anything. But the little men - hmmmmm I would suggest a board game or something, but I get them that every year or a t-shirt. And the rents, well last year I gave them towels with their names on them, I don't know, a bottle of wine or lottery tickets?? No, I guess I will just have to sit down and give it some thought:) Maybe create a list of ideas for each member of my family and then when I go shopping I will check out each item to see their price and their condition and then pick which one I like best:) That seems like the most sensible idea.

Well Happy Christmas shopping for everybody!

Luck

Today I had the best of luck catching the street-car's and subway trains on my way to and from school. It seemed like I just about made it on to each one, without running. I was extremely surprised, because usually I have to wait for each.

So what did I do about my so-called luck. Well I bought a couple of scratch tickets of course. And the first scratch ticket was disappointing and I didn't win anything, but the second one however I earned a total of 3 bucks. Just enough to go and get another one.

But what does luck mean exactly. Well according to my trusty Oxford Dictionary, Luck means success or failure apparently brought by chance. And overall I guess today just wasn't as lucky as I thought it would.

Is it sad that I was already beginning to think of what I would do with my winnings, had luck been on my side? Well, at least it brightened up my day and put a smile to my face.

I guess we can't by luck, we just have to make our own.
Good Luck Everyone

Clubin' Good Times

So, actually went out and celebrated my best friend's birthday!!! We pre-drank at her house, took a limo into the city and went clubin'!!!! Awesome good times!!

I was in a sexy black dress with white heels and if I do say so myself looked pretty hot:) lol but hey maybe that's just my confidence burst for the day:)

So I ended up getting really drunk and made out with a guy at the club. Then he added me on facebook. Hopefully he's not expecting anything...like a relationship:(

Overall had a good night. Took so many shots, was in so many photos, met a lot of great people:) Definate PARTY!!!! So why do I still have a headache!!! I just want it to go away. But I guess that is what I get for having a little too much to drink:)

Next time, if there is a next time. I want to walk out of a club and not stumble and rely on anyone to hold me up straight:) However, I can't make any promises, because you never really know what's gonna happen until it does:) Spontaneous!!

A night I will never forget!!

Does anyone know anything about The Thirty Years War??

I have a History essay written on the topic due on Thursday and I am having difficulties.
My thesis is that The Thirty Years War was one of the most meaningless wars of European history because nothing resulted from the war.

I am still trying to come up with my sub-topics and am struggling slightly.

Honestly I thought the topic was on something else entirely and would have looked so dumb if I handed in my paper on what I thought the Thirty Years War was actually. But then getting into books and papers I found out that it was on a war that holds no significance in Europe other than it happened. I probably should have started this essay about a week ago but other things come up and you get so busy studying for mid-terms and other projects it's just hard.
What I dislike was that I am friends with this boy in my class and he is in the business program at my school. Of course he started his essay two weeks ago and has been, how should I put this, bragging about his progress on his essay. He has more free time, its just that he doesn't seem to understand that he has it easy. And that Architecture is a much more demanding program than business. Not saying that business is an easy program and architecture is a hard program. It's just that my program has so many more deadlines than business that there is many more things that I have to account for, than he does. For example: he said that his program has 3 take home exams, well I'll be. what a shocker!! How simple? He can look up the answers, go online, ask classmates. My program, I have 5 exams all written and in a gym or classroom and I have to study for them! No open book! Not that I am complaining because I would much rather be in architecture than business any day, but he just doesn't realize that some people don't have what he has. Ugh!! so frustrating. I mean the guy is nice, i just don't think he realizes that he is bragging.

What a life.
Well if anyone has any ideas, or in depth knowledge of The Thirty Years War, let me know:)

Blogs in General

Blog: a personal website on which an individual records opinions, links to other sites, etc. on a regular basis

I was thinking about this yesterday, how do people begin to blog? Why?

I can only answer these questions because I have been there and know the answer, just like anyone else who begins their blog. But in truth, I believe people begin their blogs for completely different reasons. I started mine because I felt alone even though I always have someone near by and maybe, just maybe someone will read and understand what I have to say. I don't know. My blog in reality just gives me a space to write, imagine, think. Perhaps pose some questions with the hopes of someone else answering them or maybe posing their own questions on the same matter. Maybe I just want someone to listen. Is that selfish? Do I spend too much time listening to other people, and now maybe for a second I would like other people to listen to what I have to say. I don't know.

Wow I have strayed off topic:) I think a blog is personal. We talk about things we like. Show pictures of things we like and places to where we have been or where we would like to go. They are written are all over the world, written by tonnes of people with the hopes of being heard, in all different languages and dialects.
It's our way to make an impact. What do you think?? Why did you start your blog? Why are you still writing it?
