My First Doc Martens!

I totally intended on posting last month, I have pictures and everything all planned out, but obviously that didn't work out.  Life is a mystery sometimes and to be honest some things came up and I wasn't up for posting anything at all till now since I kind of only have a half day of school today. 


But I do have a post for you all today, about my first pair of Doc Martens. 

I have never owned a pair before but I always wanted to.  So with the money I had from working long hours at the Fair this summer I went to Jouneys and bought this pair here.  And I am very excited about it because for the first time I bought, with my own money, a really nice pair of boots.  They cost me $140, the most I have ever spent on one buy or even in one month.  I never have that kind of money.

 

I have only worn them three times so far and on the back of each ankle I got a nasty blister from breaking them in.  But each time I wear them they get more comfortable, as is usual with boots.  I hope they last a long time, they appear like they will.

Some Halloween Related Cliches; Week 2

Sorry for this post being like a week late but I've been really busy with school at the moment. 

So I didn't necessarily skip Week 1 but I kind of made a post about my thoughts on Halloween last year so I figured that I'd cheat and just put the link up, here.  Basically though, I really do hate it when people accuse Satan of having a birthday or a day to himself because he doesn't have a birthday and God is in control everyday of the year...plus it's just disturbing to even think that way about it.  Some things I like though would be making decorations and carving pumpkins!  And candy...always candy...

Moving on now... Some cliches that I have that relate to Halloween are you, goth cliches too more or less.  For instance the whole spooky creepy like stuff that only comes out during this time of the year like my love of skulls and bats.

I like to watch movies such as Arsenic and Old Lace (1944) and Young Frankenstein (1974) or movies that have the whole Halloween cliche thing going on that sometimes it seems slightly ridiculous and overused.  I usually watch these movies on Halloween or close enough.  Oh, and Hocus Pocus (1993).

I also like to try and dress up, and take myself little sister trick or treating with my mom.  This year I kind of want to do something vampire like, but I'm not sure, I usually do something like a witch.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

The Halloween Challenge

Since I know I won't have ideas for all 31 days of October, I just decided it would be practical to do one for every week.  Plus, that way if you are like me and don't have time to post everyday, you can just choose a day out of your week to post.  I think I will post every Wednesday or Thursday...

So here are the weeks that lead up to Halloween:

Week One: What is your favorite things about Halloween? What are your thoughts on Halloween?

Week Two: What are some of your Halloween related cliches?

Week Three: What is one of your favorite Halloween costume? If you still like to dress up, what are you wearing this year?

Week Four: Make a spooky treat to eat.

Week Five: What are your plans for Halloween? Share some pictures of your spooky Halloween. (Like throughout your day or pictures of the party you are going to or something.)

It's just something that I thought would be a fun thing to do for the occasion.  I hope you all would like to join me in this, and don't for get to link to me if you do. ^-^

Some Music of the Moment

I did a post like this before a while back, here.  And well, here is it again.

I am into a lot of different music genres and have a variety of music tastes, and I often go through "stages" where I will listen to a certain genre or song for sometimes a week and then suddenly flip around to a totally different one.  It all depends on the mood I'm in I suppose. 

Here are some of the songs that I have been "into" this month as it were, hope you enjoy!  Plus, I'm feeling rather lazy so a video post naturally sounds good to me.

1. Thousand Foot Krutch (one of my all time favorite bands) - Broken Wing  (Sorry it's kind of crappy, but it's the best one I could find on YouTube.)

2. Unspoken - Who You Are  
Now this one I heard on the radio while listening to Air1 and it just kind of stuck with me.  (What kind of goth/alternative listens to this kind of music?!  Uh, this one. :P )

3. Owl City - Shooting Star
This is a new song from Owl City, so naturally I had to check it out and loved it.

4. The Birthday Massacre - Burn Away
This is of their EP Imaginary Monsters, and I really want it, and maybe I will.

5. The Cure - The End of the World
I always seem to come back get this song stuck in my head...

 

 

 

 

6. For King & Country - The Proof of Your Love

I absolutely love the message of this song, and it is not shown enough, even with Christians.  Love is the most powerful thing in the world, more powerful than hate, and it is not just some stupid feeling that gets you into trouble and all that, it's so much more.

Update

I have no Internet connection on my laptop for the time being, for about a month now actually, and for some reason blogger would no let me put up the poll for the Halloween challenge, till now. 

I have been terribly preoccupied with school, church, and life this month, and when I did have free time to get on and post, I didn't think about it and instead did other things like read for fun and draw and all that good stuff.  But with this Challenge, I think I'll be on here more.

Recently this month and last month I have been doing programing lights for weekend every other week and for Rift.  I've been running lights for a couple of years now but I have only programmed by myself a couple of times till this summer.  I never did it earlier because there was always a certain someone (who I shall not name) who was doing the lights instead all last year for Rift, but now that he is going to college there is only me to do lights for Rift.  I should show you guys some pictures of the place sometime.

As far as school goes, well it's a whole lot better than last year, my junior year, because not only do I have less subjects that I am taking but also because it is a little calmer I think. 

Currently I am taking:

• Algebra II
• Modern Literature/Speech
• U.S. History (2nd half)/Economics
• Bible
• Geology + lab/ Psychology (college courses at MSUBillings)
• Latin I (and by November), Latin II
• Personal Finance (which instead of doing it in one semester I am doing it through the whole school year)
• Geography (1/4 credit)

Next semester will look a little different, the slash (or is it dash? *brain just died*) represents the semesters.

Tah-tah for now!
