Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! This is the first Halloween since my single-digit years that I've had a legitimate costume, instead of one that I slopped together the day of. And I wasn't creative with it or anything, just purchased it from a store in Chicago, but who cares, it was awesome! ^_^ (It's Chun-Li from the game Street Fighter, if you didn't know.)

Well it's gotten to the point that I'm so swamped with graphic design that I now only sleep a few days out of the week, heh. I think my next job should be a professional spokeswoman for Monster energy drinks - they work! There's no particular reason why I chose that drink either, I got a free sample from an AIGA meeting, and I've just stuck with it. I drink the one that's called ASSAULT. I'd get the chaos one, because I like pronouncing that word "chows", but unfortunately Monster markets it as "KHAOS" and that ruins the fun.

Also, I have new roommates! Meet Peanut and Arthur:

I've always wanted my own pets, and I realize that it's going to be a few years until I get a puppy or a cat. Also, hamsters won't ruin my design homework, are low-maintenance, but are still furry and playful! But now my apartment smells like hamsta-poo. :(

November is only a day away, and it's going to be a fun-filled month! I'm already counting down the days until Thanksgiving and Christmas ^_^ Aaah, my favorite times of the year... maybe this year I'll make the turkey?

My Parents Love Me

The dinner my parents had prepared for me when I came back to Louisville Thursday night:

Catfish in soy sauce (my favorite way of preparing fish), water spinach (my favorite vegetable dish), a soup with pork ribs (one of my favorite meat dishes) and quail eggs (my favorite egg), and sweet tea with boba that my mom saved from the restaurant (one of my favorite drinks).

Also, the dinner was ready fifteen minutes after I walked in the door. ^_^

I can't wait for the holidays.
