Give Me A Break!

MARCH BREAK!


Boy was this well needed! Being about a month and a half into second semester I'm already behind on homework! So I'd say this is the perfect time to get all caught up and kick back and relax a bit.


My March Break started off at work. Saturday and Sunday both 8-3 shifts. After work on Saturday, I decided to complete my art assignment. I had been working on it for two and a half weeks and thought it was time for it to be done! After working on it for so long, I started getting bored of drawing/colouring it. Thankfully I completed it that night!

Mutation Art- Peas & Corn.

On Sunday after work, my aunt dropped off her puppy for my mom and I to babysit. Just over a week ago my aunt added a new addition to her family. A Shih-Tzu named Tucker. Seeing as he is not even one year old yet, he needed to be watched while my aunt, uncle and cousin went away for a hockey tournament. He is just the cutest little thing! We watched him Sunday, Monday and Tuesday and I didn't want to give him back!


Even after the weekend my March Break still didn't exactly start seeing as I had to work Monday and Tuesday night as well! However I was definitely kept busy during the morning! Monday morning I was out and about with my mom gathering materials for Alex's birthday. His birthday was on Wednesday and I wanted to make him a big birthday card and cupcakes.


So first my mom and I headed to Dollarama. There were SO many different scrapbook stickers, I wanted to buy them all! But I had to choose the ones that fit best with the birthday card. After Dollarama, we headed to Shoppers Drugmart so I could print off some photos.


I had ten photos that I wanted to print off for the birthday card and I had never used the machine before so I carefully read through the instructions to make sure the pictures would be perfect. As I was editing my photos on the machine, a lady walks over to me and asks me how many photos I was printing. I told her ten. She asked me how long I was going to be because she had a couple photos she wanted to print off. Basically breathing over my shoulder, she stood there and waited for me. Honestly, some people have nerve! I was there before she was, so she just has to wait her turn! I thought it was quite rude. So when I was finished with my photos, she went right to the machine. After receiving my photos and shopping around a bit, before we left the store, she wasn't even finished at the machine yet. A couple of photos? Yeah right.


After Shoppers Drugmart, we headed to No Frills so I could grab my ingredients to make the cupcakes! I was getting super excited for my creations! I love baking, and I love scrapbooking. The scrapbook birthday card turned out really good and Alex loved it. The cupcakes also turned out amazingly and looked so colourful! I made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing dipped into rainbow sprinkles with a single gummy bear in the center. Alex turned nineteen so I gave him nineteen cupcakes with nineteen candles, one in each cupcake. They couldn't have been better. I think there are four left? We basically inhaled them!

Nineteen cupcakes for nineteen years! :)

So yesterday was Alex's birthday and he said it was the best birthday yet! After waking up we decided to go to the mall. It was his birthday, yet he let me do my shopping, best boyfriend ever? I think so! So while we were at the mall, I figured I would do some prom dress browsing. I wasn't planning on buying a dress, just looking around to see what's out there. But, I ended up buying a dress! I had a dress in mind that I wanted, and this dress was similar to what I wanted, but better! It's a beige/cream coloured strapless dress just above the knees and has a design embedded into it. FOR $60! I highly doubt I would have gotten anything cheaper seeing as my price limit was $200. What a great deal!

Ignore my face, this is my prom dress! :)

So today, is our one year one month! We were supposed to go out for dinner at Pizza Hut, but we are both still so exhausted from shopping around at the mall yesterday, that we don't want to go anymore! So I don't know what we're going to do today, but even if we just relax, it's still a special day. :)


As for the rest of my March Break... Relax, Homework, Work. :)
