yeah, I know, I haven't done one of these since the 12th and I said I was going to do one every day. eh well, I didn't feel like it.

any way, I used make-up for this one since my old make-up I never use was all in the bathroom. so yay. it doesn’t look all that great, actually it looks like some thing a little kid would have done, but oh well.

87. Make a painting using tools from the bathroom. )

43. Recall your favorite childhood game.
the game I loved most when I was little was Wolves. it was a make believe game where we'd all pretend we were wolfs and just let the story unfold. sorta like role playing, but we didn't have any set rules. I think it was Aileen that came up with the idea first since her and her cousins played that a lot.

let see, other games I liked when I was little. there was this one game we would play in my day care that involved building a small fort out of foam bricks and trying to demolish the other teams wall by throwing a ball back and forth. I can't recall what it was called, but I loved that game a lot when I was little.

7. Expose yourself to a new artist. Write about what moves you about it.

so I did a search on flickr and I found this set really interesting.
ok, I'm not good at talking about an artist and their work, I never have been! I always fail this in art class, why would I do a good job in my personal LJ? so just go look at the photos and decided for your self if you like them or not.

25. Read a book in one day.

wow umm... considering how slowly I read I may or may not be able to do this. unless I re-read a cool moonlight, that's a really short book. also one I really like.
but no, I think I'm going to read something I haven't actually read yet. like The Secret Garden. maybe....
I'll update this post when/if I finish a book

83. Write about your day in an encyclopedic fashion. (i.e. organize by subject.)


Gloomy Bear
I bought these gloomy bear plushies from Yukaris Kawaii Shop about 2 weeks ago and they just got here today! they are so cute and soft. I just love these little guys ^_^

100 Ideas
I completed 3 things off of the list. idea 85, idea 22 and this one. I really did not like how idea 85 turned out, but you'd be amazed what adding in a few swirling lines can do to a page. ok, it's still not perfect but I like it and that's all that really matters.

ten things
I started off my morning by taking a shower before doing some yoga. I fallowed some of the routines in Total Yoga.
After that I went out for a short walk around the block. thankfully it wasn't too early (around 8:30am) so everyone going to school and work were there already so there weren't many people around. actually aside from people in their cars I didn't see any one around.
I then read a chapter of American Purgatorio outside. after that I brewed some tea and read a magazine article in Body + Soul.

lunch
for lunch me and mom went to Whole Foods. I got some mac and cheese and she got some broccoli. I also got more water, bottled tea, sugar scrub, bath salt and cat food. I also picked up some tofu jerky, it's actually pretty good. I'm not sure why I wanted to try it but it actually would make a pretty good snack.

Jeff
Jeff got off of work early since it started to rain and said he was coming home. but then he called back and said he was going to go hang out with Joe. eh, he needs to hang out with his friends more often any way, I keep preventing him from going to his meetings with his friends since we get side tracked in what ever we're doing. (shopping, having coffee, whatever) I kinda feel guilty about it, so it's good he got to hang out with one of his friends today.

Chiropractor
me and mom went to the chiropractor around 4pm today. my neck feels a whole lot better now ^_^
I tried to make an appointment for Jeff but he keeps saying he dosen't need to go that badly. even if he's been complaining about his back constantly for the past couple of days *rolls eyes* well, I'm sure he'll want to go some day. at least I know my chiropractor isn't going any where any time soon. that would actually really suck if I had to find a new chiropractor. good chiropractors are hard to find and I still think dr.hammer did more harm than good.

I actually did this one before the last one I posted, but I was waiting for it to dry before scanning it. I really don't like how it turned out, but whatever.
EDIT: I decided to add a few things and I like it more now that it dosen't look as plain

85. Cut a random shape out of several layers of a magazine. Make a collage out of the results.  )

yay for hanging random things on my tree! ^_^
I remember once long ago I was outside in the backyard throwing string up in the tress (cuz I thought it looked pretty) and suddenly I noticed some guy next door staring straight into the yard! I told him it wasn't very nice to stare into other peoples yards and he took off.

22. Hang found objects from tree branches.  )
