So I know I should be working on my Music presentation but I am feeling icky. So I am going to take a break and post here instead. Today I do plan on getting my presentation speech together and figure I'll finish the powerpoint tomorrow full of graphics and everything. I will also study for my quiz tomorrow and on friday I will finish the accounting homework and do some reading. Over the weekend I will practice my Music presentation and finish up and homework I did not do.
With that said I have been watching hsn again. Partly because my nose has been totally stuffy, I am starting to think I have to see a doctor. My allergies are particularly bad, Benedryll and Claritin D 24 hour have had no impact on me whatsoever.
anyways I saw these ring sets that I feel deserve mentioning. Ok the above picture does not do this ring justice. It is definitely a flashy look at me ring set. I love the gallery and basket of this ring. Plus the yellow makes it really stand out. I dont think I would like it if it was just clear diamonds.
This set reminds me of what I would wear all the time. It is a radiant center stone of 1.5 carats. A little bigger than my real diamond. It is also in yellow gold over silver. Sometimes I like the yellow look. I also really like this paired with a square eternity band ring. I dont like the underneath of these rings because they skimped on the metal. But they look really good together and I see myself gravitate toward wearing my solitaire set and wedding band more often than I wear the flashy big and bold jewelry. I see this as more as an everyday set and the other kind as more of a special occasion set.
Ok I should probably get back to doing music now. Ugh I find it so frustrating because I dont really know where to start. to help myself out I am going to do a quick outline here. So please don't bother reading further.

School is exhausting
I never got around to cleaning today. I just made my bed to feel a little better about it. I started to do the accounting problems today and I am totally stuck. It is only two problems but they include stuff mentioned no where in the chapter. The topic isn't even in the index of the book. Argh! I did manage to do some music research though. I just have to go over all those sites that I saved and then I think I can create a draft ppt tomorrow night after I see Zeba. I figure I can add photos and stuff on saturday so that my ppt will be done. I can work on the presentation delivery during the week. I also did some of the reading and problems for my french class. Over the weekend I still have the following to do.
1. Finish french music ppt and begin presenation
2. Finish reading and all questions for french raeding
3. Write french paper
4. read chapter 6 and study chapter 4 for accounting test
5. Finish the accounting problem
6. At least clean bedrooms.
Ugh! so gross.
I think I prolly won' be able to visit my family till the end of October:( Maybe we can plan a trip to monterey then to celebrate.

Annoyed
I am so annoyed right now. I really wanted to clean, which I think I will at least try to tidy up the bedroom and do the in depth cleaning slowly. I have to do my music project but also have additional paper, reading, a test for accounting, and accounting hmk. Argh!!!

Cleaning and school sched
So I want to clean my entire house and come up with ideas for decorating my home (when I get one) But for now I would like to at least be able to keep it clean, this means I have to thoroughly clean everything and not just tidy up.
Thursday (Clean bedroom,and hall closet)
I will have to take out all recyclable things, and bag clothes to donate at donation box. I will place these clothes in plastic bags and place them in the garage temporarily. (They can be donated this weekend)
Hmk: Reading for French class, Study info on Music in France for presentation.
Tuesday (school)
Do accounting hmk
Wed (work and school)
Do accounting hmk
Work:client work, deal with payroll info and review payroll calling information)
Friday: Work
mall with Zeba
Saturday: (Clean closet for bedrooms and bathroom closet, Clean living room)
Get rid of recyclables and create bag for stuff to shred (bag this to take to work)
Get mr clean sponge and other cleaning material to clean living room, and vacuum.
Reading for accounting. Outline Music presentation
Sunday: (Clean kitchen including all cabinets and oven)
Draft Music Presentation
Remaining cleaning for next week (Clean my bedroom and whatever needs a second pass)
After thoroughly cleaning, I want to devote an area to cleaning materials, a place to put the vacuum etc. I think maybe I will either take a portion of my bedroom or take the hallway closet and use that for cleaning supplies. Right now it just has a bunch of crap in there.
Large cleaning supplies
bissell steam shot hard surface steamer (this helps remove gross dried in foot and other stuff)
Singer steam press: This works like an iron, and looks like something I can use. It would be nice for all my clothes to at least be neat looking.
hand held shark vacuum, I love the green color for this.
So far this is all that is on my cleaning wish list.
Other home items include, a fan and massager that attaches to a chair.

cowboy boots
I have been liking the whole cowboy boot look lately. I like it because you can wear it with a skirt, shorts, or pants.
I love the very western feel of this boot and the neutral color.
Dingo shoes. I actually prefer the style of the black ones. But when it comes to taller boots I like the tan shades. also these are a little less cowboy like, more like cowboy inspired.
Dig them with these seven shorts or this victoria dress
Here is a picture that I really liked.
with shorts
seven safari shorts
This is how I originally would think to wear cowboy boots. Or with regular jeans.

Wen pumpkin spice review
So I have been using this cleansing conditioner for about a week and a half. I have noticed an incredible difference in my hair for the past couple of days. It has incredible body and is smooth after the first wash. I am unsure if that is because of combing my hair or because of the cleanser. However the second day hair my hair is incredibly shiny, bouncy, and while i can't get my hair to curl naturally, I virtually do have hair just like the girls in the ad. I am very impressed, only wish that they made this cleanser in a large bottle and made all the scents smell like this. I have tried other wen scents and some of them smell really bad.

cool stuff and more pretty tops
by cuisineart
This is a blender, I love the idea of being able to blend food without having to lug out the blender. the great thing about this one is that the blending part is removable and washable.
I really like the lace design on this wide band ring. It reminds me a little of a ring that my aunt Sheping gave my mother. My mothers ring is gold and diamonds though. This one I believe is silver and diamond simulant stones.
I have to say I love the gallery and allover design of this ring by Verragio. the only thing I am unsure of is the gold accent.
I also got a new Victoria Secret catalog and saw these two tops that I think are really pretty.

fluidity workout review
So I began the fluidity workout with the actual barre and dvd today. I must admit that it was much easier working out using a chair. I do however feel like I got a much better workout with the barre. I had to use the beginner moves for everything because I am apparently extremely out of shape. The nice thing is that it is a short video and I can definitely set aside half an hour to do this. Also since I only have one dvd player I have to be able to workout in my bedroom, it is perfect because the barre fits exactly in the open space in my bedroom. the barre also folds away nicely.

New Fashion finds from Victoria secret
Faux fur cape
I love this open back top over a solid black tank with either a mini skirt and tights or a pair of leggings and boots.

Battle of the Bulge
So I have primarily been walking lately. But I invested in the fluidity ballet bar which I got on amazon.
I figure I can do this twice a week and continue with my walking or Zumba three days a week. The thing is when I do the Walking and Zumba give me the cardio workout while the ballet barre gives me the toning that I need. In the meantime I have been trying to do ballet stretches. I use my table like a barre but I like this barre because I can fold it into the closet and do pull ups to workout my arms. I honestly don't workout for very long. It takes approximately thirty-45 minutes when Im walking either 2-3 miles. It takes 20 minutes to do zumba and the toning will take 30 minutes.
I always have to follow this with a shower so I tend to do this on my days off or in the evening. When I have class I think doing the half hour of barre would be great because I usually don't want to do cardio after 10 when I get back from school, but need some stretching to kind of shake out my legs from sitting for three hours.

HAIR
My hair is like a battlefield!
When I do my hair I either do nothing at all and let it do whatever it wants.
or I have to attack it like im going to war.
I even have an entire arsenal of tools for my hair. When I do manage to deal with my hair it can actually look pretty good. This is a huge improvement since I used to have spider hair. Back when I had spider hair, my mom went to a hairdresser who introduced hair food which really helped to heal my hair. It is very thick and and rich so it was perfect for my course dry and thick hair. I used to use about a quarter of it on my long hair and then used a dime size when my hair was short.
now before I shower I untangle my hair with this comb which I also use after I shower. It helps to get to all my hair. It is also great for trimming.
I use it during the drying process too.
While I shower I alternate between using shampoo like head and shoulders and conditioner like Pureology and Bed Head with Wen Cleansing Conditioner.
I mostly use wen but I tend to use the head and shoulders on my foots only.
I love the new pumpkin spice scent. When I feel like it (usually once a week) I use 6 thirteen which is a treatment. I use this after I do my barre exercises.
When drying my hair I use a towel and these absorbent kitchen towels from Trader Joes. I then put in leave in product and style.
When I want my hair straight I use either my straightener or the blow dryer and my straightening brush.
I always use this on my bangs. I love how this helps a lot when I blow dry. It helps it not fly everywhere.
This is the fastest way to style my hair.
Sometimes I have a little more time and feel like having big chaz dean waves.
(wen girls)
To do this I use two round brushes and section my hair in hair clips.
Spornete porcupine 36XL
and
Philip B Boar bristle brush
This takes me about fifteen minutes to do.
To get my hair more curly I use the topstyler with two finger curls.
I use ten shells on half my head. Let it sit for twenty minutes. Remove shells and do the other half of head
These are all pretty time consuming for me. So after I style, I will generally let it be for a few days. So I won't usually style it more than once a week.

costume
So this year
I will either dress up as
1. Scream (i like this because it looks comfy)
I would prolly wear this without the socks. I could also turn it into a witch costume.
2. Wednesday Adams
I would wear a collared shirt with a black sweater and a black skirt and striped stockings. I would match it with pigtails and black eyeliner.
3. Gogo Yubari (kill bill)
I have a black blazer I could use. I would just need a white shirt, a plaid skirt, knee socks, and the ball thingy. I think I could be an overweight version of her because all I need to do is straighten my hair and make my bangs obvious.
4, Red riding hood
I would just do the cloak and prolly wear my nightgown under it. Its an easy to wear costume too.
