So remember my bedset quest for a zebra themed room?
Well, the search is over! I went to Target last weekend and for only 64 bucks I managed to get myself a Zebra print Bed-In-A-Bag. Granted: it is not ONLY zebra print. Its got a pretty bright pink lining and I suppose thats okay. My room definitely does not have to be pink. but i just soo figured that i could work around pink purple and yellow for my room since my two favorite colors of all time are purple and yellow and pink was just so nicely thrust upon me! Ah well.
By the way, I also managed to snag up an awesome zebra print stool! For only 10 bucks at ROSS!

Feeling better!
Ahhhh, How much better I now feel!
After getting the stye relief (which somewhat helped.. ), Kenneth dropped off some antibiotics from his house. Now, I know that goes against alot of Doctors recommendations but I don't really care. He dropped off 5mL of Tobramycin Ophthalmic Solution which is "treatment of external infections of the eye".
I got the solution at around 11AM yesterday and since then I have been using it as directed. My eye is no longer swollen or leaking. Its slightly pink and it does itch a little but all types of irritation is almost completely gone! Whoah, How amazing? I'm so glad that Im feeling better that I actually had time to make some cream puffs and fill them up with pastry cream :D
What a quick and easy process ! Hmm, I'll probably try reinventing some type of desert later on due to my boredom. So I might just make is two posts for today xP

Pink Eye
I have it.
And it's absolutely disgusting. It all started around some time last week, since last week I had babysat alot. I babysay my aunts friends son. His name's Christian, and just like any other kid he's absolutely adorable as well as a HANDFUL. He usually listens to me because most kids do. I like to keep a good balance of authority and fun when I babysit, if that makes sense. Anyhow, So after babysitting him I started to have a soar throat.. It hurt a whole ton, and when Christians' mom informed that he had had strep throat once before and looked as if he was to get it again, I figured I'd be getting strep throat. Wrong, I woke up with crusties on my eye yesterday morning.. A whole ton. Again I figured this was just my body fighting an infection, wrong, wrong, wrong. Around my lunch period everything started getting cloudy. There was a ton of mucus build up in my eye and it felt completely dry.
That was around 11.
Three 'o' clock comes and my eye is in way to much pain. Mind you, I had things to do. Ugh, After getting everything done after school (which took about a half hour). I went straight to my aunts job and she gave us a ride home. She brought home some medicine around 8. Which happened to be "Similisan: Stye Eye Relief" eyedrops.
I don't even have a stye ! I was kind of upset, but I didnt say anything because I understood that she was trying to make me feel better. Thanks, aunt.
The eyedrops at first seemed to make my eye worse. Not only was my eye swollen, itchy and red now, it was also hot and more dry than before. After about half hour though the pain subsided. Blinking still hurt though, so I finished an amazing episode of Law & Order SVU (which would get my four stars anyday) and went to bed.
Sleep did not easily come to me. What with the phone calls I kept getting from Alexis who wanted to talk but didnt understand my desire for sleep because of the pain in my eye and took me wanting to get off the phone personally. I constantly woke up during the night to moisture leaking out of my eye and srust sealing it shut. What a horrible night. However my eye does feel slightly better today..
I do happen to resembe The Dark Lord right now with a tan of course, and hair, and a nose. aha.
I hope this goes away soon!

Decorating
I'm buying things to decorate my room with.
This wouldn't be a problem at all.. if I had all the money in the world, but sadly, I do not. So I have to buy things under my budget. That's lame.
My theme however is ZEBRA! I wanted to go for more of a safari meets jungle theme.. but my aunt didntlike the clash of the zebra and cheetah prints which usually look good, but we'd have to get seperate furniture which means to many shades of zebra versus shades of cheetah, if that makes sense.. aha.
Well, we'll see. Since Target.com didn't really help me much, guess it's off to Caigslist !

Being unhappy
Is it normal? To be so unhappy.. so often? Maybe it's because I'm a teen and I'm convinced that "no one" understands.. ? I don't quite know.
I do know, however, that I'm very unhappy at the moment. I spent all of thursday afternoon crying relentless into a box of girl scout Thin Mint cookies because I found a letter Alexis had sent me while I was packing things away.. How pathetic. I sometimes feel like.. Im waiting for something that I know is never going to happen.. or more so, that something is missing. All I know is that,right now, I feel more serious than any sixteen year old girl should ever feel. I just want to go home. 'm so tired of everyone pushing me around because they can. Yelling at me. Telling me that I'm stupid or wrong. Shut up, leave me alone. I wish I could scream and cry and punch right now. What is there to do when you feel like everyone around you is inadequate of sympathizing with your position?

Practice, Practice, Practice
So for the passed two days, since Scott Lowe isn't allowed over, we've been jogging after school. I'd say 'about' two miles a day.. How terrible is that?
I'm sixteen years old and I have a gut. I should be active enough to have a nice firm and tight body. Working out does make me feel good about myself though. Though I assume jogging isn't really much of a work out, I intend on starting something more serious with Scott. I enjoy taking the time with him to better ourselves. Away from everything else.. school and work and home and just everything that isn't about ME, in order to make it just about ME. Me, me, me. That sounds selfish.. but in a house of seven with five kids and me being the oldest. I feel i deserve a little bit of selfishness. I want, for once, to take care of myself, BEFORE i take care of everyone else. Hopefully this works out.
Wish me luck.

My Junior Paper
Today I had a talk with my english teacher and asked him for his "opinion" on my Junior Research Paper Topic, since of course he was against assigning a topic because he wanted us to enjoy our learning experience. However, after handing in my top three topics I found myself incapable of narrowing them down further. I loved baking.. which was my first topic but it seemed unreasonable to correctly follow through with such a topis as "White Sauces". My next topic was Blood Diamonds in Africa which I dont much about at all since all I know is what I saw in the movie..
Ah, My third topic was The Mob, and when I brought this particular topic up to my teacher he asked me to be a tad more specific. I didn't know how to reply besides "..Al Capone.. ?" He laughed and further questioned me on what I knew and or wanted to learn about The Mob or Al Capone or The Prohibition Era.
I want to know everything.
That's how I decided upon researching the mob.
I feel that this paper should be fun and exciting and though I'm sure most of my fellow classmates disagree, I feel intrigued and challenged. Who doesn't enjoy a challenge?
I also have every intention on watching "The Untouchables".
