The Friday Collective(on sunday! lol): 9-21-12

 So this week I haven't posted because I have been busy with school work, and playing with my new kitten.  I have some new photos of him, and some photos of my recent hauls. I think I am going to change the name to The Weekend Collective, so that I can post whenever I want on the weekends. I am going to be posting on Sundays until the end of October when the Marching Band goes to State Finals, so I can capture the weeks Marching Band recaps into this post as well. :)

Up first I have two photos of my hauls this week.  I also hauled more on saturday, but I wasn't able to take a photo of those. 

Sally's had their Half Off Clearance Merchandise Sale this weekend and I stocked up on some new polishes! I was able to complete my On Safari Collection this weekend!

I also got these 3 butter London Polishes and Matte Topcoat from Coterie this past week for $11! YES $11 TOTAL!  It was a steal at that price, and I am so glad I got in on the sale, I got Wallis, Bluey and Pillar Box Red.

And Charcoal again! Here are my favorite pictures from this week.

Friday I went to a Continuing Education training that was open to students at my school called Not For Sale. It was aimed at Nursing Students and it is about Human Trafficking and what Nurses and physicians can do to help recognize when someone is a victim of trafficking and the steps to take when they suspect a trafficking victim is in their care. I am not a nursing major, quite far from it actually, I am just interested in Human Trafficking and I wanted to go to be more informed about the current situation. It was very informative and if you are interested in checking it out, you can check out their website: http://www.notforsalecampaign.org/

Also, my Sister is a member of my high school's marching band and they played at 2 competitions this weekend on Saturday.  At the second competition they won Best Hornline and 1st place in 3A. I'm so proud of them! They have a long way to go, but they can definitely do it!

The Friday Collective(on Saturday!) 9-15-12

 I got a Kitten! This is why this post is on Saturday as opposed to Friday like normal.  I am super excited to share with the world my new kitten. Yesterday a friend posted that they found a kitten in their driveway, and as soon as I saw the picture I knew this was my kitten. So I went to pick him up and brought him home. :)

I present to you: Charcoal. Charlie for short. We named him Charcoal because he looks like he has been playing around in my charcoal from art class! lol

He is one of the sweetest, loving kittens I have ever met. He is so cuddly and playful, and has already figured out where his food and litterbox are! He is so smart. He really only meows when I pick him up or he needs something and is trying to communicate.

I love this little boy to death. just look at his gorgeous blue eyes. 

Sleepy kitten. :)

Hungry kitten. :)

And of course there will be more photos to come on my blog of this sweet little baby. :)


Other interesting things that have been happening in my life: School! Yes I have really been enjoying school, especially since I transferred to Lander. I am also an art major, and am really enjoying all of the classes I am taking this semester.

Here is a photo from my History of Photography class. We took a pinhole camera outside to take a photo and then went into the dark room to develop it. It is a cool process, and we are going to go more indepth and make our own pinhole camera in class next week!

By the way, my teacher is really awesome. His name is Jon Holloway and he is an amazing photographer. 

Here is an outfit that i wore recently. I love my brogues, and this dress with the peter pan collar. <3

I have been listening to classical music alot, especially since I started back college, and am taking 2 studio art classes. This is one of my favorite songs from the movie Pride and Prejudice(2005) titled A Postcard to Henry Purcell.




These are my thoughts for the week. I hope you have had a great week as well!
