HE'S TRAINED!!

Busa! Is! Potty! Trained! He now goes to the door taps it once and then sits there till he can't hold it anymore lol. BUT IM SO EXCITED!! My puppy is now potty trained and I dont have to watch him every second to see if he is peeing or pooping!! OHMY GOODNESS! I am so relieved. He is such a good puppy, it has taken some time but hes done it!! :) I didn't really figure it out till a little bit ago. I had notice that he would go to the door when I would be in the living room and then when I'm in my room with the door closed I would see him go to my door. And I didn't really notice but he would tap the door and then look to see if either Chris or I had heard or knew where he was. It's just so nice to have that done.

Ive been trying to get my projects done, I have gotten 20 of the 40 sketches that I needed to get done by next week so hopefully I can get the rest of them done on time by next wednesday. I have my color theory project to start and I need to do my 50 thumbnails for my design class. Which is on mythology! I'm super excited because I have already been working on the phoenix so that has helped me for this project. Needless to say that I'm going to be doing a phoenix.

I feel a little bit better but its really hard to get my work done when busa peed on my bed earlier, which was my fault in a way (because I told him to come back to my room and later I figured out that he was probably going to the door to tell me he wanted out.) but he should know better, there was a puppy pad on the floor for him to go on.

I'm going to finish my thumbnails tonight so I should go before I pass out. Hopefully I will feel even better tomorrow.

And people think Mondays aren't bad

So since I've left the house today I have received a chip/crack in my windshield and it's about an inch long. Hopefully my insurance will cover it or help pay for it. I get to school and walking up my left flipflop broke lol I e had this pair of flip-flops for about five years and they just now broke. I'm glad to say that they have def over fulfilled it's life goal at least two to three times. Hopefully I'm saying that right. For some reason my Mondays have just been sucking horribly . I don't know what it is but this time I'm not going to get upset about it. It's just a Monday and Mondays suck just a fact of life for me at the moment. The good thing is, is that my morning went well. I'm just waiting for what's going to happen on my way home today. I might get in a wreck or something but hopefully it won't be my fault so that I don't have to pay for the damage lol. What a way to look at it lol. My theory is if something bad is going to happen there's going to be a silver lining.

Oh and I got free cookies since it's student appreciation week this week :)

Nothing that interesting

I seem to get really emotional every time Chris leaves to go back to Pendleton. It sucks, I'm waiting for my pictures to upload so that I can do my sketches on my break from algebra today so then tonight I can do the rest of my color theory project dealing with showing mood only using color but by still using the same image. I'm kinda behind on my observation drawings but I'm getting there I'm trying to catch up. Yesterday I tried emailing myself the pictures I've taken on my phone of the homework that Ive done and then it never sent. So I finally got my camera to hook up to my computer so now I can do it that way.

I want to go back home, I miss my family and because I don't really have any friends out here I'm stuck at home esp cuz theres nothing to do out here. I'm trying to do stuff with friends before and after school since I'm already out there but most of the people in my classes don't have cars. Which I mean I don't mind picking up and dropping off but if they don't wanna chill they don't wanna chill. It is what it is. I'm going to be back home (hopefully) while Chris is on deployment, which I would feel a whole lot more comfortable being back home. Everything is cheaper and I'll be with my parents and close to friends that I've built trust and relationships in. Plus the housing for the AI in Dallas is freaking nice! Its better than what they have here in Cali, but maybe I'm bias lol. I'm going to finish my coffee and then head up to my class. Which I wish that I could do something productive on my drive other than just driving.

p.s. I'm feeling better I actually got up at a decent time this morning and got to catch Busa before he went potty on my floor lol.

I'm not the same kid from your memory

A lot has gone one and thought about since last time I posted. The last couple days ive been sick. Christina thinks its a cold. Which makes sense I've had constant headaches, body aches, low energy and some coughing. Busa still isn't potty trained but he is create trained.

Last night he peed on my bed when I already wanted to be asleep it didn't get in my bed, but it did get in my foam that is ontop of the bed..so i had a lot of cleaning up to do. Once I finally got to sleep I had the WEIRDEST dream but cool at the same time. I was in this awesome castle and there was a party going on. Apparently I was a well known person cuz everyone knew me but it was weird cuz I got sick and my nose kept getting clogged so I'd had to stay in the bathroom and constantly blow my nose. And what was coming out was wasn't snot, it was throw up and like chuncks of stuff would get stuck in my nose and it was gross. So that ended and we all cleaned up where the party was going on and we went to bed. Later that night (in my dream) my mom was in the courtyard and something was wrong and she started floating in the air and then certain lights turned red and then some of the statues in the area turned sad or mad. It was.. different lol. I started running towards the castle and the wind started blowing hard and was pushing me down. The next day some friends (that i don't know in real life) were there and we were all hanging out and then these guys we didn't like challenged us to this thing idk what it even was but there was this drink that we drank and it would turn us into dragons for a certain amount of time. So of course I went first against this big guy. He kind of looked like someone, who I use to call my best friend but betrayed me and my trust and is a complete asshole and can have a miserable life like I know he is going to have, and we both turned into dragons and went into like this dual kind of situation. The first time I lost because it was my first time and didn't understand hat was going on. BUT the second time I freaking demolished him and he almost died. I was the bigger, stronger, faster more awesome looking dragon lol. It sounds medieval but it was all modern.

This week I had a lot due and ended up not going to my drawing class because I was sick and im pretty sure its something that is going around cuz amber is sick and christina is starting to feel it. I wish I didn't have to miss it cuz we learned how to start drawing people and I totally suck at drawing people. I was going to go to the museum for my color theory class today but I'm still feeling pretty crappy. Ill try to remember to post some of my art work that ive finished but I need to get to my projects cuz I'm kind of behind.

Not the best day ever

It started out last night when I couldn't for the life of me fall asleep. I laid down for a good 3 hours and couldn't sleep. I tried closing my eyes, turned on the tv, cuddled with Busa, went to the bathroom, drank some water. Nothing was working.. I woke up this morning with my middle finger swollen to the size a little bit smaller than a quarter and hurting/itching really bad and my pinky was swollen too due to some sort of bug bites, I think that its spiders but im not sure. I got one on my arm on a leaf of my tattoo and on my eye brow. So I went to school early for a registration workshop for this next quarter and got their early.. I started getting sick and being really tired.. I got free food, but I wasn't hungry. I went to Algebra and freaking bombed my midterm, which is EXTREMELY ODD my professor was even confused be was like what happened?! So I'm retaking it again tomorrow.. night. so I will be at school for almost 12 hours.. I'm not excited. I was bumbed about my midterm and didn't feel good. I'm driving home started smoking and in trying to get my ipod/getting cut off my bud came off went inbetween my legs burnt my seat and burned my inner thigh multiple times.. I just wanted to get home to sleep I was so ready to be home but no I have a freaking 1hr and 15 min drive home..
like I said not the best day ever

Busa still wont go to the bathroom outside and I'm about to go nuts with how many times I have to spot clean the carpet.. I really hope I can get something done tomorrow in the longest break of my life..
I'm going to try to sleep and hopefully it works.
I miss my hubby a whole bunch and wish he was home, this sucks.

Broken hearts and new companions

I don't even know where to start. We took Lexi to the shelter, I feel bad but I could not stand her anymore Ive tried disciplining her and trying everything that I could while trying to take care of my school and nothing was working. Last week she pooped in her cage and for those of you who haven't heard what happened heres what happened. Wednesdays are my long days at school, and I wasn't having the best day ever. My period came at the worst time, and the one day I forgot my supplies is when it comes. I didn't get to talk to Chris most of the day so that didn't help. Before I left for school I was rushing to finish up my projects since I didn't get them done on the weekend. Lexi wasn't helping and she kept having to go to the bathroom so I was attempting to get my stuff done and let her out and then let her in because she was barking at anything and everything. I didn't have time to make my lunch/dinner so I ended up going to Jack in tha Crack with my new friend Amber who is in both of my classes on Wednesday. I go to class and I was having issues concentrating and I was all kinds of moody. But on my break between my color theory and Observational drawing classes one of my friends friends thought that I was a fashion major since I was "fashionable" lol it was a guy but i thanked him for the compliment and told him that I was graphic design major and he was like oh. But anyways I get home and I open the door to my apartment and this wave of $%!# smell came and slapped me in the face. (which I was soooooo freaking excited to come home to) I got up to Lexi's kennel and theres a spot where the poop was, but it was missing... (great she ate her poop, awesome..) I let her outside to relieve herself and in the process I notice that we got a package so I brought it inside. While Lexi was outside I cleaned the crate and in the process the towel that was in there had poop in it and while I was taking out that towel it fell to the floor. -_-, I finished cleaning that up too and let Lexi in. I started opening up the package and she throws up, and what is it that she throws up you ask. HER POOP THAT SHE ATE, but in liquid form along with saliva and acid from her stomach. I get up go to get a bag to put it in and while im not looking she vomits two more times. 2! in the matter of one min. The first one is like small no big deal, but the second one, oh my goodness its a full turd and liquid. I don't know if that many people have ever came in to contact with regurgitated poop but it smells waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy freaking worse when it comes up the second time. I kicked her out while I cleaned this nastiness up and she threw more up outside (thank god, I was getting tired of the smell) My question is, isn't a dog smart enough to not eat its own poo, they eat other animals poo but their own?! Why?! I have never heard of a dog doing that.
All I wanted to do was come home and sleep.. and not have to clean up nasty poo throw up. The next day she ended up eating my food that was on the table for the 100th time. At that point I just couldn't take it anymore. I tried contacting the Border Collie rescue here in California but they couldn't take her but they also didn't get back to me till after we took her to the shelter. The humane society in Palm Springs is freaking rude, don't ever do anything with them, not that you guys will but if you ever come to live in cali don't do anything with them. We tried the humane society in Joshua Tree and they had a waiting list, so we went to the shelter in 29. I felt so bad for her, I love her but I just couldn't do it anymore, she already drained us of money and she wouldn't listen to me. When we took her in she wouldn't eat a treat and her ears went back and had the saddest eyes.. the worst part is that she looked at me and you could tell that if she could talk she would have said why are you doing this to me, I'm sorry but please don't leave me here. I still feel horrible but theres nothing that I could do to help her. Before we went to drop her off I looked up Dachshund puppies so then we could get one and man are they expensive!! The ones that I was finding were 825 a pop and I stopped at 1200. I continued looking and found someone who had puppies still and they were only 200 so I called the lady up and told her that I would like to come look. So thats where we went after we dropped Lexi off. We ended up getting Busa (short for hayabusa, the bike that Suzuki makes) He is soooo cute, he's been doing so well. He is 14 weeks and is catching on well. Were still having potty training issues but were working on it. He sleeps alot and he has to be with me at all times or he cries uncontrollably lol. He is very playful and super cute and loving. He is such a better fit than lexi. He doesn't run off when we go outside he doesn't even need a leash cuz he stays close.
I dyed my hair lol what a surprise right.
I was getting tired of my faded hair so I had to do something to it. :) you can't see the black streak in it but its there and it looks bad a, it makes me happy. I still don't know where to get my hair done so I'm doing it myself till we go back home to Texas.
Heres the start of my Fund. of design project. Its for the Record of the biggest bird in the world, which is a Steller's Sea Eagle if you are wondering. When i'm finished I'll post it. I have other sketches that I did this week but I really dont care a whole lot about them. I could put them up.. nah.
I think thats all thats been going on for the past week, if I remember something I'll post it or what not.
