Happy Holidays!

Just like every year, I made my Christmas cards myself. This year I used linocut technique, cut myself twice (once badly), because the linoleum wasn't soft enough, applied some color on my stamps and pressed them. Yay! E. said he hoped I would make a mess and I did.

Making reeeaaalllyyy good and fancy *perfect* cards is NOT the point. I'm not good at crafts, I just enjoy them very very much. From time to time. :) I think the only thing important here is the love you put in your work. :)

Do you make your Christmas cards or not? Do they look better than mine? Probably yes. :) Do you send your family photos on Christmas? In Slovenia we don't do that. We're all so close together this isn't necessary. :)

So ... I wish you all some very nice Christmas holidays and a very very happy New year. :)

Good Music

Good morning, everyone,

I'm still recovering from my hell of a exam yesterday. It was horrible.
I just wanted to suggest some hell of a good singer to you. It's a good recovery music. Want some good music? I just can't get enough of this song. Adele so rocks.

Enjoy :)

Motivation

I just HAD to post this video. It's the last day before the exam tomorrow. I understand it's midterm / finals week in US too?

Anyway, yesterday I just wanted to kill myself. Couldn't sleep, couldn't study ... could eat, thought ... :P

I decided I HAVE to study hard today so I found myself a little motivation video on YouTube. It's funny, you should see it. :)

I CAN DO IT! :))

Wish me luck ;)

Dear Santa!

So, I've been a good girl. I've done OK at school, I have a job, I like to help others, especially my colleagues, who always need my notes, when it comes to exam period. Here's what I want:

1) A car. Not necessarily a new one, I'm OK with a smaller one, like 2009 Opel Corsa or Ford Fiesta, as long as it has a tank that never runs out of gas and winter tyres I'm fine with it.

2) A good sense for fashion. I like it but don't know exactly how to do it. Some clothing ideas and longer legs would be nice, too. Extra 10 cm please.

3) A new cell phone. White, with a good camera, GPS and free internet. And someone on the other side who'll always have time to chat.

4) Good grades at school. I really want and need this, because good grades = higher grant, see? Thanks.

5) I REAAAAAALY need some good ideas for my thesis. One for English and one for Slovene language. Because I really have no idea.

6) I have an addition to number 2: I'd like to be able to put make up on my face, could you bring me the ability to do that, please? I usually fail miserably ...

Well, actually, I don't really need all of those. It would be lovely to have them, but you know ... I'm a realistic person. I mean, make up? Impossible.

What I would really like to have is some good ideas for Christmas presents for my family, my boyfriends and my friends, can you do that? And could you please deliver them early, a few days before Christmas?

Thanks.

I'll leave you some milk and cookies. ;)

First snow

It is nice to look outside the windows now that I'm at home. The snow covered the mountain tops around our valley. Lovely, huh?

Not yesterday. Yesterday I hated snow. Road workers obviously weren't ready for all that snow. I've also heard they are saving money so they simply didn't plow the snow from the roads. I mean, what?? Let me just show you what my view was like aaaaaalll yesterday afternoon.

Like That:

Me and my colleague spent 7 hours in the car, trying to get home. 7 hours for 220 kilometers! (that's 137 miles). I almost lost it.

Snow plow drivers, move your lazy asses and clean the roads, because I have to go back to campus tomorrow!

Annoying FB statuses

You probably know what I mean, right?

*If you love someone copy this in your status.

* If you have the best mom / dad / sister / brother in the world, copy this in your status.
* If you hate school copy this in your status.* Like my status and I'll add you as my sister.

And so on and on and on ...

But there are two of them that I like! The first one was when people started to make fun of these statuses:

*If you were ever eaten by a dragon or you know someone that was, copy this in your status in order to show your support. There's nothing to be ashamed about!* :D

Today there is a whole different thing going on over there. It started a few days ago:

*Replace your profile picture with a picture of your favourite cartoon character. Let's look at cartoons for a week, not people's faces.*

Now that's fun! I LOVE cartoons! As you can see my character is DeeDee. And guess what? My brother chose Dexter and our mum chose Dexter's mum, of course.

Do you want to see what my Facebook photos look like right now? :)

It's pure FUN! :)

... ko smo že pri piškotih

Piškotarjenje sploh ni zanimivo, če nimaš zanimivih modelčkov. Prejšnji piškoti naj bi bili v obliki pomarančnih krhljev, zato so bili temu primerno dolgočasni. Tudi tiste zvezdice in krogci me ne navdušijo kaj preveč. Ko enkrat najdeš RES zanimive modelčke za piškote, potem so tisti navadni samo še za "gužvo.

Naj vam predstavim skupinico svojih najljubših piškotnih prijateljev:

Krogci, zvezdice in srčki? Naaaah.

Povodni konj, veverička in lisica? WAAAAAY cooler. :)

V navadnih trgovinah seveda zanimivih modelčkov sploh ne dobiš. Lani me je rešila IKEA, pa tudi letos se obeta ena lepa božična skupinica:

Darilce in možek s kapo, yaaay! :)

Komaj čakam piškote X-mas edition. :)
