Britney Spears post? I think YES!

So simply put, i can jive to some Britney Spears. Well not her earlier stuff. No, just the songs created while and after she went crazy (PUN!). Hahahaha Oh god, oh god. *gasp*

So today in my Twitter feed i was linked to a cover of Britney Spears' song Toxic.

and well it was AWESOME! Here, just watch for yourself.

Probably the best cover I've seen in a while.

BAM! What awesome covers to songs have you seen? (or heard?)

Scarves are FABULOUS!

Lets admit it, everyone loves a scarf. they are the end all fashion accessory! Well that's my opinion anyways. I love scarfs because they allow you to add a touch of your personality to the outfit you have on (I also do that with socks :D ) But do you know what beats having scarfs?

*Jeopardy theme music*

Well for me it is making a scarf. I can pick out the color, design, length and width. You can not get that kind of customization for the same price as a spool or two or yarn.

So the Scarf that I embarked on was the Doctor Who scarf:

Yeah...this isnt the exact one i made, since there was multiple versions.

No my pattern came from @Tardis_Tara and her website http://wittylittleknitter.com/
Mine is the original Season 12 Scarf and it took me the better part of a month to finish. I couldnt be happier.

Whats that? You want to see a picture of mine? Why of course ;)

I think the SockMonkey Slippers set it off no?
So what kind of crafts are you into?

An Eye for and Eye and a Pound for a Pound

Today I decided that I needed some sort of motivation to being and keep me on track to actually exercise more and become healthy (and skinny!)

So I decided to join in on The Biggest Losers Pound For Pound Challenge.

So if you want to join me and the Pound for Pound Challenge click this Link! or the one above and sign up. and if you want to be teammates (which is awesome!) my team is called Lose 2 Win from Everywhere Michigan (not a real town). There's also a facebook page for my team too -> Click me. You know you want tooooooo! 

So, whats new with you?

Adorable Commercial

Lets face it, little kids are adorable. Their view on the world around them is so unique. that is why i need to share this.


How cute! i cant stop giggling after watching it.

Caring more than you know.

Today something happened that I never thought would happen. My Alma matar closed today along with the surrounding schools and hospital due to a phone/online threat to the campus, its students, faculty and staff. The details still havent been confirmed but the jift of the story is there was a threat that a student/person was going to open fire on the Campus of NMU.

The threat as is stated that they wanted to be the death/victim record of Virginia Tech. this is just wrong!

I get that since my school is in the North that theres less sun so people tend to get depressed, or so i have heard, but for this to happen just doesnt seem real.

I guess its the "that's so horrible but would never happen to me" theory talking. As of right now the school says everything is fine but there is no reports of an arrest and the campus is still on lockdown. I just hope that if school resumes tomorrow that nothing horrible happens that would have happened today.

Its getting hard in here.

One year ago I arrived back into Rome from spending a month traveling around England. It has this hold on my that i never realized until i started to look for a real job/career. the only thing i can think of is getting a job in and living in England. i want nothing else than that. If i were to win the lotto today, being able to do anything and go anywhere, my first stop would be to England. 

I have never felt a real connection to the US. *gasp* the horror. but its America!

but it is true. i have never held America in its glory that everyone else does. I never enjoyed reciting the pledge of allegiance. I kind of wish that the British had won the Revolutionary War so i could have a cool British accent.

So I dont know what to do, because it would take a miracle to get a job over there. Anyone have a suggestion?
