Seeing my boyfriend in New Jersey

Yesterday, I came back from my mini vacation to the East coast. I had so much fun seeing the love of my life, finally, after 9-10 years. And, his family made sure to remind me countless times that he isn't allowed to move to California! So, if I'm planning on staying with him, which I am, I got to get my shit together and move out there! Which, if I'm with him, I don't mind. For me, everything felt perfect. Conversation between us wasn't forced, and of course the first few hours we were both pretty shy.... until I took the lunge and kissed him!! It was so weird to see him in person. From when he picked me up @ the airport, up until when he drove me back to the airport, I couldn't stop staring at him while he drove us around with this big goofy smile on my face.

We weren't able to go out a lot because I got really bad cramps that lasted 3 days, but we were both fine cuddling up and watching TV or talking in his bed about us and the past and our future together. I'm so happy we finally took the initiative to have this happen. We also talked about when he's coming here, and hopefully, he's going to try to come in December. I can barely hold on until then, the pain of leaving was so bad. Skype and the phone have to keep me company until he can smile his eye wrinkling smile in person and wrap his arms around me and cuddle into my chest.

 

 

 

I can't wait to start on my photo diary of Marcy's pregnancy

 

 

 

 

Update

Instead of doing "Fantasy Friday" today, and also missing the other weekly posts, I've decided to just give an update on what's been going on. I kind of fell into a mini depression this week because I was realizing my job isn't going to pay anything with how far and how little shifts I get, and I was also depressed because I couldn't see myself getting into my new Filofax: Cover story

That feeling has changed, I went to Michael's and bought new paper, made new dividers, gave them a faux laminated feeling with clear duct tape, and I threw away the weeks I had stuff written in to start anew. Hey, I can do that since I have 5 other planners sitting around!

With what's been going on lately at home, I really need a vacation..

1. Miami: I would want to ride a bike on the boardwalk, have drinks and go out to all the trashy clubs. I would want to lounge out near the pool/beach and read silly books, most likely BJ Novak's new book. I would want to do all the tourist things all well
2. Santa Monica: I've always wanted to go back to Santa Monica once I learned that there's a 2-3 story Lomography store there. I read that they have classes there that teach you how to use different cameras and film, and they develop the film there for you as well. I've always wanted to get my film cross-processed
3. Huntington Beach: I've wanted to go because there's a really pretty Ferris wheel that over looks the beach. Irvine, and Santa Monica have one as well, but the one @ Huntington is so much prettier, also across the way they have a haunted ghost ship (that I had a lot of fun staying on)
4. New York: I'm not sure if I would go there right now because I'm sure it's hot. Also, I'm sure there are a ton of tourists there too as well. I want to for the bagels, to spot famous people, window shop at all the stores I can't afford or fit into, and see the same sorts of skyscrapers that are seen on Tumblr
5. New Jersey: For obvious reasons

School is finished next week!

A list of things I want to accomplish once school is finished includes:

• More Smash*
• More Keri Smith
• More outgoing mail
• More time spent on my blog
• More time doing creative things
• More DIY!

Hello, my name is Marisa. I'm 23 years old. Today, I wanted to put up a personal post about me, and some of my likes and dislikes.

I'm a part time cashier @ Ikea, as well as a part time student @ community college. I used to want to be an American Sign Language Interpreter, but as of late I'm not so sure anymore. This summer
2014, I'm getting gastric bypass surgery. From there on out my time will be spent working part time/ full time, and getting a gym membership! I'm so excited.

Some of my likes include:

• Snail mail
• Pretty envelopes
• Washitape
• Cooking
• Going shopping for markers, pencils and pens
• Fruity alcoholic drinks
• Stickers
• Hello Kitty
• My pen pals and real life friends
• Movies and TV shows

Some of my dislikes include:

• Rude people
• Cleaning up after my sister who never helps out, with anything
• Rain the day after washing my car
• Falling leafs after sweeping an area
• Hot coffee
• Lima beans
• When bits of tea seep out of the bag once you added the hot water :|

23: Birthday weekend!

My birthday was filled with a trip to Baja Betty's for Mexican food and drinks, and a penis hat made out of balloons! Everyone wanted a photo with me, and my waitress was getting a little TOO handsy with my body..... and I even got a sloppy kiss from her -.- Before that day, I got my makeover from Sephora thanks to my baby.... and a few days before that I ended up getting my Monroe pierced! Back to the present, yesterday I had my friends over for my birthday dinner, which I ended up cooking. My guacamole killed it -as always! Included in the photos are two of my favorite gifts. My mom and dad went on a cruise, so I couldn't celebrate Mother's day with her, our family is going to celebrate when they get back (:

Urban Decay review

Today I went to Sephora with a friend of mine and we were checking out this palette that she wants to buy her girlfriend. I sampled all the colors on my hand, and with my dark complexion, I love them all! For around $47 with tax, you get this new Electric Palette from Urban Decay. I love the silver glitter on the left, I mixed it with all the colors. The associate helping us also told us that these colors work as hair chalk. If I had extra money laying around, I'd for sure make this purchase. My first purchase would be one of the Naked palettes though, they're amazing looking.

In my spare time, I like to photograph my friends

    

I think I found a new pen pal from IG. Ignore my Ikea outfit -lame

Marshalls for $2.99, girl, it's a def. buy

With everything being busy, I finally found time to go out
with my friend to the coffee house



Mini Update of sorts

With our birthdays coming up, I've been busy making gifts for him and getting everything ready for us turning 23!

A small glance at my week

Monday: Spring break is over now, back to school D; I have a museum paper I have to write and I need to find out the details about my midterm for my Black Studies class. When I finish with school, I need to get some exercise in, get a load of laundry started, and call my nutritionist

Tuesday: My day off from school, and work. I get to spend time with my boo, and I need to finish my paper because I'm sure I'll procrastinate on Monday

Wednesday: My museum paper is due, the spring card swap I signed up for is closed and I sent my card out already so I'm ahead on that! I also have work @ Ikea!
