what i hate the most about cashier-ing

2009-06-18T00:06:00.003-06:00

when people come up to pay for their stuff and they're on their cell phone. can you seriously not take the few minutes, tell the person to hang on, and at least acknowledge me and answer my questions?

"hello, how are you today?"

*nod*

"did anyone help you out today?"

*shake head* (because they don't want to interrupt their conversation and actually tell me)

i ring their stuff through.

"your total comes to $$.$$"

*hands me card while still gabbering and laughing away on their phone*

"reciept with you or in the bag?"

*points to bag*

"have a nice night"

*nods*

i swear to god nothing pisses me off more than this.

ugh.

the worst morning ever

2009-06-10T13:55:00.011-06:00

how smart is kayla?

not very smart. actually, that is a lie. i'm pretty smart i guess. i just make mistakes like all humans tend to do. human error. it happens a lot. i watched oprah yesterday and they had medical human errors on and featured a girl who was told she had breast cancer when in fact she didn't at all. things like that. people make mistakes.

i had spare first class this morning, meaning no class. meaning i could sleep in. which i did. then my friend, brooke, texted me asking for a ride and that if i wanted we could go to tim horton's and she'd pay for a coffee or something. she ended up paying for a french vanilla and a sandwich for lunch, so i was all smiles. until we walk back out to my car..

i locked my keys in the car.

including my house key, her backpack, and all my school stuff.

f. m. l.

at least our school is only a five minute walk from that particular tim's. we walk back to school, all the while cursing and talking to myself out loud about what a retard i am. we were definitely late for second class; i had science. oh well that wasn't even the worst part.

i walk into science with my french vanilla and purse and i'm all sweaty and breathing heavily cause that five minute walk was probably the most i've walked in a while. everyone just kinda stares at me as i walk in, and i rush to charndog (my teacher; charndog is not his real last name) and quickly tell him about my incident and that i am going to the office to get excused so i can figure out what the heck i need to do. a few kids in my class mutter, "that sucks" and charndog giggles a bit and says "good luck with that." (i was told by one of my classmates later on in the day that my face was beating red from embarrassment, yeah i can imagine that.)

this is the shitty part. i walk to the office, and explain the situation quickly to the lady that sits there calling parents of kids who haven't shown up to school, and whatever else. i call my stepmom, who basically laughs her ass off at me, and then i pass the phone to the lady so my stepmom can excuse me for an hour or so. and then the lady starts laughing. great. oh well, at least i don't feel so bad for missing school now.

so basically what i had to do was walk across the highway to the west part of my city to get to my younger brother's school. that was a fifteen or twenty minute walk on it's own. i haven't walked that much in a long time. it actually felt nice, and it was good to get some fresh air and sun instead of being in science class reviewing for the diploma. i just kept running all those "i'm stupid" thoughts through my head. there my car was sitting in the tim horton's parking lot, with my keys and my new to live is to die book sitting in open view. although nobody would steal my car; it's old and worn out. but still i was freaking out. i get to his school, and the office calls him down, and he's kinda all "wtf" towards me. i'm like "i need your house key, mine is in my car which is at tim's because i locked them in there by accident." yup, he laughed at me too. no surprise there.

then i make the trip back home, another fifteen minutes or so. by this time, my heels are starting to blister up from the flats i'm wearing. proof that my feet aren't used to walking that much; i've been driving everywhere since i got my license. i guess one good thing happened out of that walk though, besides the fresh air, and the perspiration. i passed by the elementary school that's right by my house and a bunch of second graders were outside playing on the playground. it just made me think about those times and miss them and it's absolutely crazy that i have three days of high school left.

i made it home. the key worked. i quickly switched into some flip flops and took a piss cause i hate my school's bathrooms. mostly cause the girls in the younger grades are immature as fuck and it annoys the shit out of me. i then grabbed my car's spare keys (yay) and then began the walk back to tim's. about another twenty minute walk. i had now missed all of science class and was missing the first bit of one of my computer options, the better of the two that i'm taking. fortunately, i get to the parking lot, and my car still sits. with everything in it. my heart skipped a beat. i think i hugged my steering wheel when i got in the car. i was so relieved. and for a few seconds it felt weird to drive. maybe it was the flip flops. maybe it was the mass amount of heat in my car. but it felt strange. maybe because i used to walk everywhere, and i mean everywhere, before i started driving. those walks i used to walk all the time.

i got to school, was able to get a late slip, the lady in the office greeted me. i walked up to the class brooke was in so i could give her her backpack. walked to my class. i started to explain to mr. bp about why i was late. he stopped me from speaking and dead seriously asked, "first, explain to me what's up with that shirt you're wearing." i love the slack teachers give twelfth graders, honestly. it's the best.

anyways, to catch up on the last week and a day: i'm a huge-part time workaholic now. honestly. i've been at work so much after school and i don't get home till 10:30, and i've actually been going to bed before midnight. and this past saturday i did inventory (which is a huge load of shit when your store has close to 40,000 items) and i was there from 4:30 in the afternoon till 1:30 on sunday morning). and i don't really have any motivation lately. blogger's block maybe? oh well this was a good way to fix that. have something brutal happen to you. and then it gives you something to share with the world that will hopefully be interesting.

oh and i've been told this situation won't happen just once either. great. any similar stories happen to you?

love, kayla

it is funny that the two things men are most proud of is the thing that any man can do and does in the same way - that is being drunk and being the father of their son.

my love, all gulped up

{starbucks venti passion tea lemonade}

i never make my bed. there's just something so wonderful about messy quilts. don't you love mine? they're so old and have funky old grandma patterns. they completely don't even go with my room, but i would never give them away. i love them too much.

i was reorganizing my closet. i took some hangers from work so i'm using those instead of these. but i thought these made the coolest pattern strewn all over my floor. even right now, they still are all there. i have a huge urge to just, hang them on my walls.

the clouds looked so pretty today

my neighbourhood through my bedroom window.

peek-a-boo

fun fact: i love that brown spot on my cheek.

this is how happy you make me.
i hope your day was lovely.

mtv movie awards

2009-05-31T19:44:00.009-06:00

sorry for not posting this weekend. i have been a little bit busy. i think i have realized that i won't be able to post everyday, unfortunately.

so, the mtv movie awards is kind of the big hype right now i guess? i watched a little bit of it upstairs. luckily i caught a glimpse of cam gigandet who is mighty damn fine as usual, and i actually had no idea he was in the twilight movie (i still haven't seen it, and it may be on my to-do list now just because of cam). so i gawked for a while. the only reason i think he is so sweet is because i am an oc diehard fanatic. i have all the seasons, and just love everything about that show. cam played kevin volchok who took the cake from ryan in terms of sexiness, imo. but i will always go back to him as the guy who basically killed marissa. (sorry to those who have never watched anything past the end of the 3rd season, i just ruined it all)

anyways, now that i know he is in twilight, why do all the girls go for edward? yes he is kind of attractive in the weirdest way, but cam is just plain drop dead gorgeous. maybe it's the long hair that ruins it. but let's rewind back to the time when he played kevin in the oc. yes?

and now a long haired james

anyways, him and robert pattison won the award for best fight tonight. that was when i was being all 'omg, he's so dreamy.' and my brother was like 'isn't that the guy from the oc?' haha. he knew better than me.

he's making a strange expression. but he's still cute.

okay so this is going to be my first c&c of my blog. comment and criticize. bash and love. whatever.

megan fox, oh you are a hot babe. but your hair looks really disgusting tonight. this rest is good. i want your tan and legs. and your shoes.

and your eyebrows except in blonde

{megan fox}

i'm not a fan of this dress, vaness! i think you could've done better. your necklaces are pretty though. (:

i want your waves, and your tan

{vanessa hudgens}

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
her face cracks me up. and the dress looks too weird.

{miley cyrus}

everything about this look is perfect. her makeup, the outfit, her smile, her pose. a++ in my books hayden.

{hayden panettiere}

so paris is actually looking decent. her man's expression is really awesome though. like "look how tough i am, i can keep a 90 pound woman from falling over" or something. i like her clutch, shoes, and hair. and i like his whole outfit. and his face.

{paris hilton & doug reinhardt}

i don't even know who lauren conrad is. but, ew.

{lauren conrad}

i'm lovin' the plaid. lovin' the smiles. lovin' the sunglasses.

{tyrese gibson & soulja boy}

no! go back to blonde!

wow, you look hot. wow, i can't take my eyes off you. wow, those shoes are gorg. wow, that dress is flattering. wow, you're ashley tisdale. /puke. {although she doesn't look like herself at all! mad props.}

{ashley tisdale}

my favorite so far. a++++++

{bruno}

awhhhhh yeah. best lookin' four. the hair, the seriousness. the man on the right is sexy. the outfits, the style, the stripes, the shades. you boys are stunning.

{kings of leon}

holy ..... hot. this is the sexiest business-looking outfit i've ever seen. i want it. i want all of it. ow, ow. she pulls that off so very well. i love how white outfits make you look so tan. but she's still tan either way. just saying.

{malin akerman}

i love this eye makeup on her. that is one hella good smokey eye. and i love the nude lips and the complexion. love love love. the only thing wrong with this is her roots. i know they're not that bad, but they stand out. fix them.

{stephanie pratt}

"hun, that bright yellow clutch looks disastrous with your outfit." "but i want to stand out." "then pick a different dress. at least make it work together." "black, white, yellow! what more do i need?" "you look retarded."

{ashley greene}

yes steve-o, that's exactly what you want to do. wear your everyday clothes to a big huge awards show. jackass. (haha)

{steve-o}

oh man. her necklace is the first thing i noticed, and the only thing i'm loving. that's prime material, right there.

{caridee english}

she's cute!

{shawn johnson}

overall, i think it's like any other awards show. well, any other teenage awards show, basically. the country music awards, and oscars are a little bit different. you have to dress a little bit nicer.

what do you guys think? love, hate, agree? leave your opinion, especially if you watched it like i should've.

love, kayla.

a big part of who i am is just the way i was raised. nobody is better than anyone else, and if you really work hard, you might get lucky and get what you want.

sissing like a snake

2009-05-29T22:53:00.006-06:00

the only outfit shots i got this week were from the 25th (monday). if you remember back from my i don't like mondays post, you'll remember that i said that we sold a top at work that looked pretty close to the gray dress shirt that i posted. well, here it is! i added a belt for fun, but posted a pic without as well.

my hair was really messy that day, and my face looks retarded in these. but the outfit is what matters! yes. click to view larger.

{hooray for bobby pins like crazy}

here is the same shirt with no belt and a set of brown wedges. i should've taken a close up of those wedges; they are my huge love and obsession right at the moment! i am so loving them right now. they are really comfortable too. but i think i will always wear this shirt with a belt. unless i'm really lounging.

dress shirt & snake belt from urban behavior. flats from spring shoes.

i am making a fashion website for my info pro class. maybe i'll show you guys when i'm done it. i'm whipping it together this weekend because it's way long past due, so it definitely will not show the html skills that i know i am capable of. or maybe i'll just keep it for myself and my ass of a teacher.

on a side note: today was 26 degrees! it was so warm! it was lovely.

how were your fridays? did you do anything exciting? ask me some questions while you're commenting away. what do you think of my outfit above?

love from, kayla.

this girl gives me crazy goosebumps

check out more of her covers here.
rather than posting my own video today (i have nothing good to say anyways) i decided listening to this girl's amamamazing voice would be tons better. i deeply apologize for no tuesday or wednesday segments. i would save this stuff for saturdays, but i have legit excuses. which i will actually tell you about on saturday. so sorry, we will go through with them next week. i actually have a really great rant for you all on tuesday.

aaaaand hooray. i have a new follower! her name is emma, and she has a pretty lovely blog, which you should check out right now. thanks emma! i am now up to 11 followers, and this is pretty dang fabulous. thanks for everything you guys!

oh! i just want to let you all know that i am actually becoming very more active on twitter. so if you wish to follow me and stuff, just do so! there's a link over on the sidebar. i do a lot of replying to people, so chances are i will probably reply to you. (: and, i want to be able to answer a bunch of questions! so please ask away! having an email sent is preferred, but you can leave some in the comments.

i might end up posting another video today. one that i actually made! we'll see! i hope you all have a wonderful thursday.

kissing is a means of getting two people so close together that they can't see anything wrong with each other.

ask me sundays

2009-05-24T20:25:00.009-06:00

today was a beautiful day. i spent most of it inside at work. but i wore a pair of denim short shorts and sandals to make up for it. and i put curling mousse in my hair, so that even right now, at 8:30 pm, my hair still looks wet. it's a great summer time look, and takes seriously two seconds to do in the morning.

ask me sundays is the day where i'll post answers to questions that have been asked throughout the week. either in comments or in email; preferably email. so if you have any questions, just pop one my way, and i will answer it. this way you get to know me a bit more than just the girl with the sweet posts.

right now i have no questions that have been asked, so i snagged a survey that i found on facebook, and i will fill this out for the time being. (:

what is more difficult for you? looking into someones eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they are telling you how they feel? i find it equally stressful, but most hardest when i'm telling them how i feel. i tend to look away to something to the side or something right behind them, like a chair or a wall or something. i think most people are like that, and i couldn't tell you why.

Think of the last time you were REALLY angry or sad. Why were you angry or sad? i don't remember the last time i felt this way. and that is a very good thing. (:

You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You get enough time to make ONE phone call. Who would you call? (first of all. why honolulu to chicago? why non-stop? what a random way to start a question. just saying.) i would call my old man. make sure he knows how much he's really impacted my life, and that he's the reason why i am the way i am.

you are at the doctor's office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. Do you tell anyone and everyone you are going to die? (again, why is the doctor a she? why not a he?) not anyone and everyone. just family, and the friends i talk to on a daily basis. What do you do with your remaining days? i would visit places like europe if i could. if not, i would be with my family and close friends. and i would probably go bowling everyday too. would you be afraid? not of dying itself. well actually, yeah i'd be scared. but if i cried, it would be because i'm going to miss everyone and everything.

You can have one of the following two things: trust or love. Which do you choose? this is a tough question. i love to love. but love is nothing without trust.

You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late even once more, you are fired. Do you save it? of course, and if the boss has a problem with one of his or her employees trying to save a dog that's almost dying and pleading for help, then i wouldn't want to work for that kind of asshole anyways, and i would probably quit before the boss could fire me.

You are unfaithful to your spouse or significant other. Do you tell him or her? yes. i have in the past, and i am the kind of person to tell the truth.

Think of the last person who you know that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give one year of your life. Do you do it? the last person that died was my great-grandma, and i'm not sure if i would or not. she lived a long ass life. and she was very caring towards us great-grandchildren. i'm pretty sure that if i gave her another mere hour of life but had to give a whole 365 days of mine for that, she would slap me across the face and ask what the hell was wrong with me. or laugh and shake her head silently. either way i'm pretty sure she would think it was all nonsense.

are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend? for sure. i've been told that i'm entertaining and hilarious, which i am! i do talk a lot though, but i like listening to people, so i'd listen to me.

Does love = sex? no way. but the way i see it, if love is the milk chocolate of a kinder surprise, the sex is the toy inside. an added bonus. (i just made that up)

Your boss tells your co-worker that they have to let them go because of work shortage, and they are the newest employee. You have been there much longer. Your co-worker has a family to support and no other means of income. Do you go to your boss and offer to leave the company? hell no, because i don't have any other means of income either, so i'm keeping my job! and what if i have a family too! the reason they're letting the noob go because of work shortage is because they need to keep the people that know their shit. so eff that, i'm staying.

When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you feel? i swear i do that everyday. but i remember doing it a few days ago, and hurting someone. but hey, i was honest. that's what matters most.

What would be harder for you, to tell someone you love them or that you do not love them back? i think it's easy to tell someone you love them. telling someone you don't love them, you know you're breaking their heart, and that's way harder.

what do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up? family. Why would it be hard to lose? because it's family and they've been there with you through everything.

When was the last time your parents told you they loved you? last night, chk yeah.

If you had to go back in time and change one thing, if you HAD to, even if you have no regrets? i don't know. i don't think i'd change anything actually. oh yes i would. my marks on tests. aha.

Imagine. It is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear someone walking around outside your window. WHO do you wish was there with you? this is such a dumb question. but being with dave would be sweet cause we'd just blast some "i'm on a boat" and sing along and forget about the someone outside the window.

Would you give a homeless person cpr if they were dying? i don't know cpr so i would just call 911. of course i would, it's still a person. who cares if they own a roof or not.

You are holding onto your grandmother's hand and the hand of a newborn that you do not know as they hang over the edge of a cliff. You have to let one go to save the other which one would it be? grandma. she's old and has seen the sun millions of times. i love you grandma, hope no feelings are harmed.

Are you old-fashioned? somewhat. i love the idea of vintage coming back. but in the sense of old-fashioned ways, not really. i love technology. i love trying out new things that are coming out. but i guess i still love the idea of getting a letter in the mail and baking from scratch.

Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a heart break or have never loved before? loved and lost. everyone needs to experience some lovin'.

Choose if you could do anything OR wish anything, what would it be? change someone's life, again. i've impacted one of my ex-boyfriends life pretty huge (long story) and would like to do that again because the feeling you get when you know you have done that is amazing.

the weekend is finally at an end. i hope this week starts off on a good note.

love, kayla.

week in review; 17 - 23

2009-05-23T22:29:00.008-06:00

guess what my choice for awesome saturdays are? that's right, week in review. it's a much better way to share everything i did the past week in one day, then to talk about my whole week everyday. or something. i don't really know. all that i know is my week was pretty grand.

sunday, may 17: a splendid sunday. it was the middle of the long weekend for us canadians. i spent most of the day in a bowling alley. a scholarship tournament for bowling in alberta is held every year on the may long weekend, and i had bowled in it on the previous friday and saturday, but on sunday i had just decided to watch a few friends and talk with them. it ended up to be a really boring day, honestly. i was supposed to hang out with one of my good bowling friends, adam afterwards but that never happened. i was actually pretty bummed that i was not outside the whole day as it was sunny and just gorgeous. after the bowling alley sitting around time, i went over to my friend, nathan's house and we watched tv, i think. my brain is fried.

monday, may 18: victoria day! holiday! and it snowed! this is alberta for you.. complete summer weather one day followed by some awesome snow. i know my ex, devan was happy that day. he hates summer. then again he's the guy that is making snowmobiling his career. we'll see how far that goes. i worked most of the day at the cash registers, which was pretty good, but i was pulled off towards the end of my shift to help clean the store. it was a sort of good way to spend a day off school. i guess.

tuesday, may 19: school. it was not a monday's schedule. i had double science that day, and was informed about our exam that would be on friday. bummer. i don't remember what i did tuesday night.

wednesday, may 20: school. followed by work. kind of a simple day.

thursday, may 21: this was a monday schedule so i had double spare (spare in canada means no class. double spare for me is a break between 10:41 am and 1:47 pm. it's an amazing break. i love double spare). it was a pretty easy-breezy day. i almost had to work too, but luckily that backfired.

friday, may 22: my science exam! it was actually so easy. like, i can't even describe how easy it was! so that was a huge plus to my day. also, school days on friday's are shortened. so instead of getting out of school at 3, we get out at 1. it's actually really awesome. although i was at the school till 3 anyways (kind of) because we painted the fence across the street from my school. as a way to pay back the community for all of the vandalism that a few assholes in my grade decided to do. it was actually a lot of fun.. didn't really feel like volunteering. and we got free pizza afterwards! bonus. there were a few pictures captured too. {remember two posts ago, when i said that i was going to paint? this is it!}

neil and matt. they were absolutely covered! which sucked for them because the paint we were using was oil-based, simply meaning, it doesn't come out!

my friends {l-r} amanda, brittany, ashleen, (me), and leigh

i love this picture!

my evening was spent at work, again, and then after that i went to nathan's house to watch a movie for a bit.

saturday, may 23: today was gorgeous outside. sunny and just beautiful. i hung out with my ex-boyfriend, and his mom and sister. his mom just opened her own smoke shop here, so we spent the afternoon there. it's right behind the fire hall here, and they had a huge event going on where families could come and see the firetrucks and other things. apparently the stars helicopter was supposed to land at 1 pm but by 4, when devan was taking me home, it still hadn't been there. dev apologized like crazy for wasting my day, but it wasn't wasted. his mom is bitchin. she is like a teenager in a 43-year-old body, i kid you not. she wears lulu lemon pants as well, and her ass looks great. she is thin, and pretty. however, she smokes a lot (hence opening up her own smoke shop) and you can really tell in her skin. she's still pretty nonetheless. i love her to death. then i went into work and worked on the cash all night. and i learned how to close! it was brilliant. there's just so much to know and do! luckily the fab co-worker kelsey has a really specific list. so i will never get lost, hopefully! i feel very profesh when i have to sign so many documents. i like working on the floor, but cash is great because we don't have to deal with the messy store and the cleaning and folding and hanging, and we don't really deal with bitchy customers. okay, that was a lie. we still deal with them, but not so much as when you're on the sales floor.

and now i am home. full from some sweet mcdonalds. and i think i'm going to go catch up on all my blogs, and then perhaps watch a movie? actually i may see what my friend is up to and i might go hang out for a bit. we'll see!

how was your week? let me know in the comments.

that is what my starbucks cup said today. my coworker, eden told me a few weeks ago to try the iced passion tea lemonade with apple juice. oh man what a difference that made. i ordered a venti, along with a marble cookie. marble cookies seem to be my fancy with iced passion tea lemonades. that is usually what i get at starbucks; i'm not really a fan of the other things. anyways, i would just like to thank eden for the apple juice suggestion, and i am passing it on to you.

if you have not even tried the iced passion tea lemonade drink, well you are missing out, and you must go on over to a starbucks near you and order one. (: i actually plan to buy my own ingredients so i can make my own passion tea lemonades at home, because the 3.50 hand-over everytime i get one just doesn't feel right; but i still do it. i found the recipe. if you would like it as well, refer to here.

what is your favorite starbucks drink? have you tried the iced passion tea lemonade? what do you think of it?

i don't like mondays

i actually do like mondays this term, because i have a 3 hour lunch. but besides that, i don't like mondays is an online fashion boutique. i discovered it today while blog-roaming, and being awesome. the clothes are great. there's some pieces i especially want. my one problem i have is the price! ohemgee, these are expensive items! it makes me think that overall, it's not exactly worth it. some of these i could probably find a really cheap alternative to. find a steal, or however you want to say it. or even make them myself, seriously. i would probably never purchase anything from here, just because nearly all of these items cost more than my cell phone bill and car insurance put together. no lies there either folks. but, window shopping and eye candy doesn't harm anyone. i'm pretty much glad i do not have a credit card at the moment, although i know i would stop myself because that's the way i am. i know if i get a credit card it will be for one reason: online shopping.

here's a few things from i don't like mondays that i really adore. and would like. but will not get. /sigh.

cobweb top. i really love this. then again i'm one that really adores see-through tops with tanks underneath. i think it looks sweet.

aren't these pants fabulous? i like that high-waisted bottoms are coming back in style. but you just have to make sure it fits right. there's this girl that i go to school with that wears the high-waisted unfashionable jeans. like the kind my mom wears because she has huge hips and can't wear anything low-rise. except the girl is my size..

we sell a top at my work that looks almost identical to this. i think i might just buy it today just so i can prove that you can find something that looks like a $140 item, that is actually $20.

i really love these leggings. in fact i love a lot of leggings and tights. then again i have those nice thin legs that suits them well. but $96 for these things? that's way too much for me. i like spending $10.

i'm loving this nude tee. but priced at $98, i'm sure i could find something like this somewhere else. or just do a diy.

i think the website as a whole is pretty overpriced. especially since most of the items are tees and other really thinned materials that probably cost five dollars to make. but this is the joy of internet roaming. eyes and opinions only. but actually the one thing i really do love about this website besides the clothes itself, is the way they show the clothes. i like that everything is shown on somebody, and i think the poses are sweet, and i love how the girls don't wear tops when they're advertising the jeans only. (:

i hope by now you've caught on to my set theme of friday being devoted to fashion. yeah, fashion fridays. i rock. i'll post outfits and talk about fashion, and whatever else tickles my fancy when it comes to shoes, clothes, and jewelry maybe. i should probably post an outfit that i wore quite a while ago but never posted.

top from sirens. leggings from urban behavior. {poladroid rocks, btdubs}

last week i went to my work and spent a good chunk of money on a bunch of clothes. i'll be set for a while; i don't think i'll need to buy anything. well, maybe shoes of course.

blogging feels so wonderful. i knew i missed it. but i must get off now, eat some lunch, quickly go over my notes for my science exam that i'm writing in a half an hour, and then bugger off to school again. then i get to paint. more about that later.

have a wonderful afternoon and evening. it's extremely sunny and 17 degrees here today! perfect early spring weather, although it really should be warmer for may. i hope you all have a great start to your weekend.

love, kayla.

hiatus cut short. i'm back, ya'll!

do you like my new header? i do. i had to put something from grad in it. and it'd be awesome if you left lots of love down below (that sounds raunchy) because it makes me happy.

love, kayla (who's stoked to be back, of course)
