Autumn Photoshoot: 10.22.2009

President's Weekend Saturday

was spent at the playground at Hedden Park, near my cousin's house.

In A Trance

Tip of the Week: "Hypnotizing" Your Rabbit
Often a bunny can be "hypnotized" by cradling him on his back in your arms or across your lap, tipping the head backwards and repeatedly stroking from the bridge of his nose to his ears until he's "out." It's helpful to do this when cleaning bunny's sensitive areas, like the face. feet, or under the tail. If the hind feet seem to be vibrating, touching them will stop it. -from rabbit.org

Here's Another One

If anyone knows where to get more of these 3d puzzles, please tell.

Since I Talked About

one of my previous hobbies already, here's another one I loved. Then I couldn't find any to make anymore. :-(

Thank God for This

as bunny had an accident.

On My Facebook Page

there is a quote that reads: Depend on the rabbit's foot if you will, but remember it didn't work for the rabbit. ~R.E. Shay. Well, since my rabbit's foot is still attached to its owner, maybe it'll bring me some luck on tomorrow's math quiz. Update: 1 wrong... blegh

This Got Me Hooked

on paper-macheing. It's built around a bottle, so there's an opening for flowers and such. It took me a long to get a even just semi-decent picture because the varnish kept reflecting the light. The squirrel is propped against a mossy tree trunk upon which a butterfly decided to land. There's also a cute-as-a-button ladybug on the other side.

College is looming

I have a box of letters that I have to look over during spring break.

If procrastination were a sport

I would no doubt be an international champion.












It took me two weeks to finally clean my room. I did a little each day. The before pictures are here. Amazing what a new bookshelf and some stacking of papers will do.



















The room is also rabbitproof now! Cinnamon can't hide underneath the bed anymore and chew the bed, and I added a carrier next to the desk so that he has a timeout/toilet place. No more poopies.

Chance of Being a Vet

just went *poof* today with that one lousy grade on AP chemistry midterm. How ironic that I got high As - A+s on every-frigging-thing else. Maybe vet school's just not the the path for me.


But just to keep things on a happy note, here's a rare picture of Cinnamon with my cousin's rabbit, Pookie. Before Cinnamon had the surgery, Pookie usually hightailed it out of the area whenever he saw him, but now that both of them are sans testicles, Pookie's the terror.

Snow Day Yesterday

which meant that I had more time to study for my midterms and take pictures of Cinnamon in the snow. The entire time outside, he didn't move. I'm not sure what he hates more, the parka or the snow, but it's only a max of 3 min. and then he's back in eating treats. Snow wasn't really deep... it was the ice that kept us out of school.

My Mom's Birthday Present

is me cleaning my room.
*While it is extremely messy, there is no food lying around. No nasty little cockroaches running around. It's really all just papers - tests from 10th grade, maps from DC trip, SAT stuff, etc.

Before:

Happy 48th Birthday, Mom!

Thanks for always being there for me. I love you.

My 1st Sleepover Ever

at a non-relative's house was last night and spent 3 hours playing Settlers of Catan. What was particularly funny was that my host, who is easily offended by sexuality, admitted that the cover disgusted her. Once I realized what she was talking about, I couldn't stop laughing because only someone as paranoid as her would notice it.















Alas, I didn't win, which wouldn't have been so bad if the girl who did hadn't been so utterly clueless about everything. On the other hand, I was as sneaky as can be and planned it all out, and I still couldn't beat her. I did end up a not too distant second, though, thanks to the wheat cards. So close, yet so far from world domination.














The best part of staying over at Liz's house was cuddling with Heidi, a sweet cocker spaniel x poodle. She know how to chill.

So this is Inauguration Day

and I'm flabbergasted at the hype around Mrs. Obama's fashion. I even saw website praising her hairstyle, and the media's calling the 1st Family's $400 clothing budget friendly. Gork. The My Country 'Tis of Thee rendition didn't impress either... you only have to look at the youtube comments to see what many thought about it.

Cinnamon doesn't really have an opinion about the whole debacle, as long as he keeps getting fed.
