my etsy shop.

So I’ve been super busy the last few days with some orders (yay). That I haven’t had time to update my blog on here (sorry). I wonder if anyone visits anyways? Probably just some of my friends. lol Anyways I started a new blog for my shop. You may find it at http://y0omii.blogspot.com. Also I added y0omii on twitter, so follow me on there too~ More to come soon :)

best invention ever.

3 words: Tide to GO!
This stuff is truly awesome! So here’s the story. I was sitting on the bus, with my dad and my sister, on our way to the mall. There was this lady standing in front of us (the bus was somewhat full)… she was holding her cup of Tim Hortons coffee in one hand, and her cell phone in the other. Well, as you know, when buses get cramped, pushing and shoving by passengers start to occur… and unfortunately, someone had bumped into that lady with the coffee.. and the coffee had splashed on my sister… my dad… and me!…. The lady was really sorry about what happened, but it was understandable since it wasn’t her fault. But all I could think of at the time (while half awake and wondering why coffee had landed on me), was “I should go to Shoppers and buy one of those Tide-sticks”. Not knowing if it would actually work or not, I was very eager to go out and get it before the coffee dried up on my jeans and my bag. I am SO GLAD that it worked. It doesn’t even look like coffee landed on my bag or my pants at all! Unfortunately, my bag still smells like Tim Hortons coffee… and I’m sure my pants do too… BUT at least the stain came out :)

sorry for my absence.

I have been really busy the past few weeks. A lot of stuff has been going on with school, family, and personal matters. I have also been getting my online shop ready! What!? yep I have decided to make an online shop and do what people have suggested, and that is to start selling the things that I knit :) So I have been trying to get that all set up as well. Nothing is listed yet but if you would like to bookmark me for future visits, the link is: http://y0omii.etsy.com :) Check back in a week or so and you will see stuff in my shop! I am currently making cute pandas but I am having much difficulty with the eyes :(

updated.

I’m sick today. Well… I’ve been sick for a couple days. I didn’t get any sleep last night (again) which sucks. And I have school tomorrow (which sucks.. my 4 month ‘holiday’ has come to an end). Some good news though. Since I couldn’t sleep my brain was busy brainstorming different designs and stuff, and I finished some of them today. Made a new layout for the shutterbugs website, as well as a poster. Yey. Lol. I don’t want to go to school tomorrow :(

reliving childhood.

Despite the fact that it was freezing cold today, and regardless whether or not the snow would pack together nicely in order to make a big snowman, that 20 minutes we played outside was really fun. Although we weren’t able to make a big one… we managed to make a couple of mini snowmen…and played in the snow like we were kids. Thanks for creating such a fun memory today!

Mini Snowmen Dec. 2008


BTW only a few days left until christmas! Horray!!

snow storm.

Snow, snow, and even more snow. I was suppose to go domewhere today but because of the storm I am stuck indoors. Guess I woke up early for nothing. I still want to go out and build a snowman or something, but perhaps that can wait until after the storm. It’s suppose to snow here today, tomorrow, Sunday, and Tuesday. Is there such a thing as TOO MUCH snow?????

strange coincidence.

Today of all days… something strangely familiar had to take place… thinking about it brings tears to my eyes. Why did it have to happen today? I hope my little hamster will be fine. I cried so loudly… and cried sooo much today when remembering my cat. I hope that all my pets… my hamster.. my fishies… and my shrimp… will all be okay.

But yeah, for the first time in a while… since no one was home… I cried my heart out. I don’t think my parents even remembered what day it was. And I had brought up the subject to my sister…I guess I’m the only one who ever really cared :(

On a side note: I’ve been having really, really strange dreams lately. Some have been about death (mine)… some have been about competition…something to do with water? and racing? I don’t know why I have really weird random dreams sometimes. Maybe the water one is due to me listening to the sound of water while I sleep? I had downloaded this app to my ipod that is suppose to play certain sounds… like nature.. rain… ocean waves… birds chirping.. etc… in order to help one get to sleep (since I’ve been having trouble falling asleep… internal clock is all out of tune). For the most part it helps me fall asleep. But then I get weird dreams. What to do.

Other than that.. I’m about half way finished knitting my scarf!! YAY! Simple design. Could have been better. But its a start. Then I will make another quick pair of legwarmers (can’t have too many)…and THEN i will start a knitting project…making a bag with a monkey face (or bunny face…. or lion face…) on it :)

lovingly remembered.

There comes a time in ones life when one needs to face reality. It has now been 3 years and each year on this very day I’m reminded about you. I haven’t forgotten and I will always remember and cherish our memories. So today, just like last year and the year before, I will try to live happily in your memory but I know that I will end up crying anyways, as hard as I try not to. I am a real softy when it comes to animals…I wish that you were still around. I miss you Tabi… you’ll always be my lovely, and cute mister kitty.
