Weekend recap!

My mom is pretty darn cute, just thought you should all know.

Okay, so anyway, my weekend was... well... not long enough!! Aric was sick, so that was sad, but

I spent time with mom, which was nice!I got a bunch of new colorful tights from walmart. YAY! I love tights... I'm on the lookoutfor more, so if anyone knows a good place to get tights let me know!! We're still rehearsing for our show, which is exciting, but its coming up so fast!! (The show opens next week.) Its a whooooole lot of fun, but super tiring. It makes me look forward to the weekend. Like I am now. I'm very tired right now. Yes, yes I am. I would love to take a nap, but... I have class in an hour. Dangit. Anyway, I'm watching paranormal state right now, and I'm all snuggly and stuff, so I'm going to go try to rest before I have to go to class. I'll post later, I don't know if it will be tonight or tomorrow, but I'll post again with things that inspire me. 

Bye pumpkins! 

This is your cat...

This is your cat. 

This is your cat on drugs. 

We grow catnip in our backyard (I think we have 5 or 6 bushes of it.) Evidently we support our cat's drug habits. 

I'm going to post for real later, but for now I'm bored in class and I just finished editing some photos and found these, so... enjoy for now haha. 

Bye bye pumpkins. 

Talk to you soon. 

Oh my.

Okay... wow. Well. today was interesting. I don't even know what to say about today. It was kinda one of those days where everything starts off well but because you're tired and already bottling up emotions you kinda end up exploding by the end of the day. So... I skipped comicking class tonight and spent the evening talking to Aric, and deciding that i want to save up over the summer for a tattoo on the palm-ish area of my right ring finger of a heart to remind myself that I need to love myself. That was a weird sentence.

Anyway, moving on. I forget if I posted about this or not, but I had a mystery container of manic panic in my cabinet that I had used half of once for about 5 minutes to tint my hair red. Well anyway, my hair is not bleached and I couldn't find an example of this color with non-bleached hair so I really had no clue what it was going to turn out like. So... my normally red-orange hair had faded and I was bored, so what am I to do but throw that on my head? No fear guys, no fear. 

Well, 25 minutes of processing later I ended up with berry colored hair. I actually like it... a lot. At first I really missed my old orange-y hue but.... I'm kinda digging this almost pink thing I've got going on. So much so that depending on what job I get for the summer, I think I'm going to go MORE pink. (and the to be followed by manic panic's Atomic Turquoise, thank you very much.) So... yeah, anyway, that was about my day in a nutshell. No rehearsals tonight, yay for breaks! I'm posting a picture of my new hair and then I'm off to go hide from the cat that has been waking me up every 20 minutes for the past 3 nights. Not tonight Daniel. I'm hiding and you won't find me, my recently given title of "stage ninja" is going to be handy tonight. 

Oh! Wait, I forgot. So I made my camera strap today! I'm in love with it. Seriously. It's blue with little blue birds all over it. In. Love. It's pretty stellar if I do say so myself. I think I'm going to make more and sell them on etsy. I don't have a picture of it yet, but I have photos of flowers blooming in my backyard that I need to edit/post tomorrow so... I'll make sure I get a picture of the strap for then. For now though, my lovelies, have fun looking at my new hair, and enjoy your night!!!! 

Have you guys ever had a hair color accident gone terribly right, or do you have any strange colors you want to dye your hair?? 

Love you all my pumpkins!

Whirlwind.

Wow, well today was a whirlwind to say the least. Last night was too but.... that's okay. It was just insanity to the max. I don't even know where to start. I had rehearsal last night for the show I'm in. Um yeah, most amusing rehearsal ever. We played red-light-green-light. Yeah, you just read. that right. Anyway, it was great. I kinda felt like I was in the fourth grade, but hey... that's not exactly a bad thing. Today... I don't even know where today went. I meant to craft a bit, I wanted. to makeover my camera strap, so I went to Joannes and got this cute little bird fabric but... that will have to wait hahaI went over to Aric's house, but we were both working on things so we didn't talk much, but it was still nice spending time with him. Anyway, um... I can't think of anything else to say tonight. Anyway, anyone have any fun crafts that they're doing? I really want some crafts to line up for the summer and... I can only think of a few things I want to do... currently the camera strap is taking precedence. So... I'm hopefully going to post a photo of that soon. Oh!! Wait, I do have a funny story, today I got sick of the fact that my hair was fading so I decided to attempt to color my hair with a random container of manic panic that i found in my bathroom and... I like the result. Pictures soon. That is all. 

Much love. 

Little lovelies!

Hey guys!

See, I told you I'd be posting again today!! 

So, tonight I'm posting a collection of things

that inspire me!! I plan on keeping this up because...

well... I need to stay inspired!! So... I already have WAY too 

many things I want to post, so I'm going to post 2/3 of them

and then post the rest tomorrow because... yeah, like I said, 

I have a GIANT stack of things that inspire me that I want

to post. I think today's theme should be houses, so here's 

some things that will inspire my house one day. Enjoy!

I'm pretty sure I'm going to morph my room into 

this one over the summer. Its just too perfect! 

I want this bedroom so bad I can hardly 

stand it. I want my bedroom to look like this

when I have my own house.

The only way it could be more

perfect is if it had flowers and twinkle lights. 

Weekend recap!

So... I wrote this giant post and... it just got deleted. Yay.... okay, anyway. These photos are from our wonderful-weather weekend!! It finally feels like spring, and we all know what that means, don't we?? Ash gets to break out her jelly shoes!!!!!! (see last picture.) Ummmm yeah. I'm going to post again later tonight (hopefully) about things that inspire me, but right now I just wanted to give a weekend recap. It was lots of fun, but I'm not going to talk your ear off... or.... write your eyes off? Yeah, um, nevermind. Lets just avoid that phrase, okay? So this begins a little project Aric and I are starting in which we take a photo every time we're together. So... this is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. 

Hah okay, so the reason I'm posting this one is because you can see my prized possessions, Aric and my metallic bronze cowboy boots. And... because I picked on my mom for making this face in a photo and I did it now. What can I say? The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... 

New favorite word "wongwatape". 

Aviators are kinda our thing. I told Aric one day we're going to make a family crest that includes a pair. Mine are new and they were $3. Yay!!! 

Hah so... I decided it would be a good idea to sit on the ledge of a 5 story parking garage that had no form of catching devices on the other side. Aric however, decided this was a terrible idea and pulled me off haha. Poor boy. I put him through so much. 

My pretty new skirt/dress!! $3.00 thank you very much. 

Love you all, pumpkins!!!!

To be or not to be... selfish, that is.

Here, have a photo from a few weeks ago. 

So. 

I'm waiting. 

Aric is on his way. 

The weather is nice tonight,

so we're going on a bicycle ride! Yay!

I had a doctor's appointment today

I wasn't a huge fan of it, but...

it just means I'm closer to 

knowing what is

wrong. 

yep. 

I 

was cast 

in a show at school

the hours are insane, and I 

really don't want to be in it now that

I know the schedule. I can't do it without

getting sick. Unfortunately I have the 

lead role. I was give the opportunity

to back out if I wanted. But........

if I back out I'm afraid they're 

not going to recast and just

decide to drop the scene. 

I don't want to hurt

all my friends. 

I don't know 

what to 

do. 

I'm 

not a 

fan of this.

No sir. 

No. 

I'm

trying not

to panic. I'm trying

to keep a level head. I'm 

trying to decide what's the best

for me, and for others. The greater-good

and all that jazz. I hate that stuff sometimes. 

I just want to be selfish and back out

without caring who its going to 

affect and blah blah blah. 

But... I'm not that type

of girl. I wish I was

but.......... only.....

SOMETIMES.  

sad-face.

oh well. 

....

To

be. Or 

not to be?...

selfish that is. 

...That is my only

...question...

currently.

Anyway, 

I'm still looking

forward to my bike ride

and probably hooping adventure. 

I think it will be good. I'm pretty sure 

I should bring my camera along.

I think that's a good idea.  

Yeah. For sure. 

I will. 

Peace out pumpkins. 

Love always, 

Ash

p.s. I really want tea right now. just so everyone knows. 

Reminiscence

So. 

I'm just sitting here, 

drinking the tea I just made

(Its too sweet of course... just the way I like it)

in my jammies (today a sweater, t shirt and sweat pants)

and basking in the glow of the lamp, the fire place, and ghost hunters on t.v.

but.... I'm not going to lie and say I'm paying attention to the screen

I'm thinking about a lot of things tonight, I suppose. 

I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow.

I've been waiting for this one since

NOVEMBER. 

So,

needless to say I'm pretty excited. 

I haven't been feeling well... okay, that's an understatement. 

But, I digress, I'm just happy about the fact that I get to know what's wrong. 

What's wrong with my body. I don't even care at this point

if its good/bad. I just want to know. You know?

Anyway. 

I'm drinking my tea

 and thinking about tonight. 

We sat on the playground, you and I. 

Well, okay, I'm not going to be a liar and pretend we didn't play

We might be grown-ups now, but... when has that ever stopped us? 

"Grown-up" is just a word. 

A silly little word that tells people we shouldn't color outside the lines. 

That we can't play on the swings, like juicy juice, have glitter collections, play with our food, 

and dare I say it, hula hoop?? (and we all know I don't abide by THAT rule.)

But "grown-up" is just a silly little word. Society makes it so that it tries to 

DEFINE people but... who needs that business?

Not me, that's for sure. I refuse 

to let that word rule my life.

Anyway, 

back to what I was saying. 

So there we were tuckered out from sliding down slides

and then playing static-charge-tag (which was more fun than it should have been).

We were sitting on the playground equipment and I looked over at you, I'm not even sure you knew that I was looking, but I was, as always, just watching you, trying to memorize

your every feature. I want to burn it all into my memory.......

your hair was blowing in the wind and all I could think was

how I never wanted this to end. I don't mean us. 

I know we won't end. No matter what. 

But I didn't want that moment 

to ever ever end. 

Ever. 

But I looked at you

and I knew then, more than ever

just how much I loved you. You're my all. 

I mean that and I know I say that all the time, 

But I always seem to remember it the most when we're just sitting

Not necessarily talking, but when I can just feel you beside me. 

Feel the way you touch my heart with just your presence. 

I've never felt anything like this. I mean it. 

I wish tonight didn't have to end. 

I wish I had gotten more than

2 hours with you, but,

I'll take what I can get. 

Any amount of time with you it worth it. 

I wish I had skipped class though tonight. tI really 

wasn't worth missing time with you. I know I saw you a lot

this weekend and last week, but somehow that makes the fact that we can't always be 

together even more maddening. I think maybe that's a good sign, 

aren't you supposed to be sick of people after spending

SO much time together? Yeah, I think so. 

More proof you're the one for me.

(as if I needed more...)

All in all, 

I wanted to write this

to tell you I love you so much. 

I think you're a beautiful person. 

Inside and out. You're amazing. 

In fact, I think you're 

STELLAR.

I love you

As big as the UNIVERSE!

That's super big.

Yes it is. 

Mhm. 

I've been gone for a while, haven't I?

Well... its been a few months since my last post. 

Lame. So so very lame. 

A lot has happened since then, 

My dad got married

I was in a show at school

I got cast in another show

I got three new hoops

I got a new camera

(and am in love with it so much)

I've been on many adventure!

I've made new friends!!

And Aric and I went to visit our friends in NC!

How exciting!!!

I want to share all these things with you, 

but I'll hit you with it all slowly. 

No worries. 

Today I'll share with you a few of my favorite photos from our trip to North Carolina!
