The Worst Holiday Ever Invented Is Almost Here!

Yes, I am talking about Valentine's Day. I have hated Valentine's Day since the 5th grade. Why the 5th grade? In the 5th grade, Buddy Bruhn took the Valentine I gave him, showed it to his friends and laughed in my face. And every year since, I haven't had a "Valentine." Sure, in grade school your mum makes you give Valentines to your schoolmates. But, there's always that special Valentine you give to your crush or your boyfriend. Screw that shit! Valentine's Day is stupid. And yes, you can say that I'm just being bitchy about it because I am single.

Speaking of me being single, let's think back to the times I wasn't single. Well, that time doesn't exist. Sure, I've gone on a few dates (a few being 3). But, I have always been single. Why? I don't know why!!!! I wish I knew why!

Let's see.....let's rate the successfulness of the "dates" I've been on....

Date #1:

Guy: Shane
When: Freshman year of high school
Where: A musical at my school
Hand holding: yes
Hugs: yes
Kiss: yes
Good conversation: yes
2nd Date: No

Date #2:

Guy: Adam
When: Senior year of high school
Where: Chinese, Target, his house
Hand holding: no
Hugs: No
Kiss: No
2nd Date: Yes

Date #3:
Guy: Adam
When: Senior year of high school
Where: his house
Hand holding: sort of?
Hugs: 1
Kiss: No
3rd Date: No


Were those dates successful? Date #2 was obviously more successful than Dates #1 and #3. HOWEVER, I still ended up fucking miserable. The guy from Date #1 was only trying to get to my best friend. I don't know about the guy from Dates #2 and #3. We don't even talk anymore so I'm going to say he's just a jerk? And the sad thing is, I don't even know what went wrong.

Okay, I'm going to stop being bitter because it's just making my day worse than it already is. I'm going to go watch a movie and keep being the hopeless romantic that everyone seems to hate.

PEACE

I'm going to Pigfarts! It's on Mars!

Hola muchachos!!!!

School started back last week on tuesday. Then we were out of school on thursday because of "snow." IT DIDN'T SNOW! It flurried. They were big ass flurries, but nothing stuck to the ground. It was quite upsetting. But, not as upsetting as my mother telling me I can't go to PULSE dance convention this weekend......I almost cried. But, at least I have a solo in this year's dance recital. BOO YAH, bitches! Anywho......I just started a collab channel with my best friend Cydney. THEAUDIOADDICTS!!!! Yeah, we're gonna be talking about music and stuff....mostly music. The stuff's gonna be left on our own channels....like the video of me blowing up a balloon and letting all the air out....Yes, I am aware that I have issues. I think I want to learn Romanian again. It was fun. Even though I can't remember any of it.

Okay. So, I really need to get to studying and doing my homework because I really want to go to LA in July to go to VidCon. So, I need to kick some ass this semester. I REALLY WANT TO GO!!!!!! Okay, going to study now.

PEACE

Oh yeah, since Tuesday is my day to put up videos, I will also be posting the songs that I talk about on here! Look Out!!!

Happy New Year Guys and Dolls!

Well, it's the beginning of a new year which means that I am going to start doing what I said I was going to do. If you look at my header, it says "Knitting + Stories + Boys + Music + Random Shit." Well, so far, I've only posted Boys + Music + Random Shit.......where's the Knitting and the Stories?

Here's what's going to go down. Every time I make up a new pattern or knit something I am really proud of, I will post it here. Starting..........NOW!

I just finished a pair of armwarmers based on a pattern I made during Thanksgiving called Seafoam. However, the stripe pattern is different on this pair. On the first pair, I went for a blue stripe pattern. Well, this new pair is a gift for Sera and they are Hufflepuff armwarmers, in black and yellow.

Here's Seafoam in the original stripe pattern:
And here's Seafoam in the Hufflepuff stripe pattern:
