A list of stuff I never want to do.

Listography. I got the idea from my Aunt's - boyfriend's - daughter. She bought a book about listography. It's basically a book with lists. I've decided to start doing it on here. My only rule is to write at least 15 things. Who doesn't like making lists?

A list of things I don't want to do. Ever

1. Bungee Jump.
2. Go through a divorce.
3. Have anyone else I know die.
4. Sky dive.
5. Get fat.
6. Break-up with my boyfriend.
7. Fail any classes.
8. Go blind.
9. Go deaf.
10. Loose a limb.
11. Get in another car accident.
12. Fail a life.
13. Die alone.
14. Have a house burn down.
15. Have to put an animal down.
16. Get trampled by a horse.
17. Be on a boat that's sinking.
18. Drown.

Oh yeah. Grades.

Sup, twenty-ten?

Well, it's 2010. That sounds so crazy. 2010.

I spent my New Years with my boyfriend. We rented Jennifer's Body (If it wasn't for Megan Fox I would never have finished watching it, it was that stupid), Extract (I found it pretty funny). We also got a baking lesson from his Mom. She taught us how to make Score Squares. I think it's my new favourite treat. I'm a huge failure when it comes to anything in the kitchen but these are super easy to make and they taste great.

We slept in this morning until about 1:30p which is really weird for me especially since I'm never asleep anymore past 10a. I got home a few hours ago and spent all day, literally, lying in bed half sleeping. It's a snow storm out right now and I'm just waiting for Scott to get done working out so we can go driving in the white mess outside. I swear, the only thing I like about snow is that you can easily do donuts in parking lots.

As you can also probably tell, assuming you've visited my site more than once.. I got a new layout. I needed something that was really simple, yet fun. Hence the black and white with coloured accents. Excellent.

Ps: I've had the God-Damned Lady Gaga 'Bad Romance' chorus stuck in my head for about three days now. Rage.

My family is an amazing bunch of people, I really couldn't ask for a better family. I love them so much and I know I don't show it enough. Which brings me to my new years resolution(s) :

Be nicer to my family, do more house work to help out, verbally tell them how appreciative I am for everything they have done and continue to do for me. Tell them I love them more.

Speaking of New Years -Scott and I were going to go to the Casino. Then I realized I'd have to wander around and find a dress of some sort. I hate wearing dresses. We've [I] decided that we're going to spend the night at his place and rent a movie and probably stuff our faces with greasy food of some sort and just spend some actual time together. Time that doesn't just involve sleeping or him driving me places.

Renovations.

I'm sure you can all see the changes. I needed something that matched.

I'm not going to take credit for designing the layout or the coding. If you go into the source there's a paragraph stating who designed it, etc.. :)

- - -

I came up with an awesome idea, I'm going to start doing a few video entries. I have no idea when I'll get around to it, but I will.

There's so many resources that I take for granted. It's time to start using some of them.

School is busy, we have two client projects on the go. One poster, one logo/branding/identity type thing.
