More of an update...

So here's what's been going on since I posted last...

I'm still unemployed, and becoming very, very upset about it. I'd like a job very much please. I've purchased three books for studying- the GACE for early childhood education study guide (the GACE is an exam one must take for Georgia teacher certification- I'm exempt from the first test because of my SAT scores), an MAT study guide and a GRE study guide. I plan on taking at least two of the tests in the next six months.

Kerry and I went to Walt Disney World for the long weekend. I worked a day, we played a day.

Remember how I mentioned (in July) that Kerry and I went to the Morikami Museum, which was a place I've wanted to get married since I was a little girl? We've got it! Our wedding date is October 18, 2009. We've registered for some stuff, but we need to add more. Apparently, if we're expecting 100 guests, we need to have about 150 things on our registries (combined). We currently have 90.

Yarn. Kerry's mother gave me a gift certificate to Knit Picks for my birthday. I used it to buy yarn to make a cute hoodie. It's going to have cables and will be red. And it's called the Central Park Hoodie. Pics (from the pattern's site, though I paid for the pattern):

Looooong time since an update

I know, I know, I haven't updated in almost 2 months. But when life catches up with you, it gets hectic. So what's been going on...

Went home. Went to Disney World (where I wasn't Jiminy Cricket, like I was supposed to be- my legs are 1 1/2 inches too long for it) with Mom and her best friend, and had a blast. Mom and her friend even came to visit me!


(Mom on left, friend on right. Guess where I am?)

After that, I came back to town, and Kerry and I went to Williamsburg for a few days. Except for feeling like I was eaten alive by bugs, it was fun!

I've also been knitting. I finished Monkey socks, but they're too big, so they're more like lounging around the house socks.

School started, too. And I'm doing relatively well! It's amazing how much easier school gets once you're taking the classes just for your degree!

I have a cool roommate, too. And Kerry and I are still doing really well. He's traveling again, so I get bored easily (again). I found a new LYS (which I'm now calling my LYS, instead of the two places in my town, because, although the LYS I've now declared closest is actually 20 minutes away, instead of 5, they have a better selection of yarn. YAY Mosaic! ) I got some yarn there for Mom's Hanukkah present there, and some Regia Bamboo Color for myself, too. Mom was saying that she wanted wool-free sock yarn and a sock pattern for Hanukkah. No problem. Got the yarn. Was going to buy nice needles, too. But then she said she didn't really care if the yarn had wool in it anymore. ARGH! So now she's getting wool-less yarn and yarn with wool for Hanukkah. And I bought myself some of this from Artsygal Hand Paints-


Ooh...pretty...*drools* I can't wait for it to come in! I plan to make Coupling with it. It's gonna be purty...

Okay, seriously though, I need to work on some homework. I need to work really hard, too, because I have a project to work on where my professor is Deaf, and I want to try to sign my project. Adios!
