Mud on the Tires

We went to Texas Roadhouse for my cute little blonde friends 19th Birthday. They made her ride the saddle and lasso with the napkin while the whole restaurant shouted "YEE HA." Pretty sure she is the best sport in the world (minus the lasso) because she was smiling the whole time.

We ordered the huge slab of fall-off-the-bone ribs... My mouth is watering just thinking about them. I turned my books in today and my parents are on their way! 3 more easy finals left and I am OUTTA HERE!! Hello Seattle, I have greatly missed you and cannot wait to be reunited.

Have a smiley, happy, great, amazing, fantastic, outstanding, bomtastic day!!!

p.s. it's raining, and I LOVE IT!

Two Birds On A Wire

I was listening to the newest Regina Spektor CD and came across the song 'Two Birds' and I really liked what I heard! This video isn't her, but it is the song, and I enjoyed their interpretation of the song.

So living up to my nickname of Art Major in the apartment, I decided to let myself be inspired by the song and use my canvas (that I spray painted black a while back). I was going to use the black one for a different project but I knew that the birds would pop so much better on black. Here is the finished product as of right now:

 I think I may add some words a little later, but I really just love my birds on a wire!

I made the birds out of colored cardstock, and the "wire" is made out of some extra hemp string I had laying around. I didn't have any massive staples to staple it to the canvas so I just super-glued it! Works great.

This is where it is hanging in my room. Right next to Cory Monteith;) and above my barrier of blankets and pillows.

I finally decided to use my white canvas that has been sitting on my shelf.

 and of course.. there is glitter!!

a song that makes me feel good should get it's lyrics on a canvas.

Mumford & Sons addict

I have been listening to this melodic band all day. Some days you just have to plug in the little white buds and tune out everything else. Today is definitely one of those days..
