Happy Halloween!!!

Well first off I have to start by saying HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!! It's my favorite holiday!! I just love getting to dress up and the decorating. It's such a wonderful time to be creative and it's fun to see what everyone else comes up with too! Daniel and I had our first party a couple weeks ago and it was a Halloween party. We played games and everyone came dressed up. I even made little pumpkin awards for the costume contest! We had a lot of fun getting ready for that party. This Saturday we went out with out friend Sami to Morgantown to celebrate Halloween college style! And by that I mean bar hopping. lol. Had a few drinks and went to a couple new bars. I love Bent Wileys! It's so nice! It was such a great time getting to go hang out and have fun with friends!
And of course today I'm not going to miss the chance to dress up. We're going to go over to my grandmas to give out candy (we live in an attic apartment so I'm pretty sure we aren't going to get anyone here haha). Oh! And I need to mention out costumes! Daniel is a pirate! He actually ended up being that because it was the costume he put together for the Renn Fair we went to in September. Missy, our doggie, is going as  a witch. It's actually an old costume of my other dog, Scarlett (who lives with my mom because my mom is very attached to her haha), but Scar's going to be a pumpkin so I stole the withc for Miss. Plus Missy will wear the hat which Scarlett would NEVER do haha.
And my costume? Well I actually bought a dress from Illusive Skull that was black and purple for my costume. I had tried one on at the store and had zipper problems but we thought it was that dress  so we go another and tried the zipper. It seemed fine so I spent 40 some dollars on this dress and when I got it home this zipper busted! Before I even got to wear it! I was very upset to have wasted my money on such a badly made costume (and they don't do refunds. I understand why for the most part. But I mean if the costume is that badly made there really should be an exception). Luckly they had had yard sales a couple times this year and I had bought some costumes for 10 (and these are usually around 90 dollars. These are really nice costumes...unlike the one I got for Halloween haha) for the Renn fair so I was able to throw something together. Even luckier one still matched the hat Daniel got me to go with the other outfit. So we went to the Dollar store got some freaky fabric and spider webs and took so plastic spider friends and made me a ghost! I actually ended up liking what we made waaay better that the one I had bought!
I'm really excited to get my Missy babe dressed up. It's out frist Halloween with her! We had just adopted her in June from Pet Helpers. He other owner was an older man and he died :(  So now she our puppy dog. But I love her so much! She's such a sweet heart!

Well why not take this oppertunity to brag. In 18 days I'm leaving for Disney World!!! I love Disney World so much! It really is my favorite place on Earth! I can't wait to be down there in Florida, in this awesome Hilton hotel room and enjoying the parks and the restraunts all of which Daniel planned and paid for! Sooooo excited!!! I can't wait!!! : D

Well I suppose that's all for now. Only other thing going on in my life is my last semester of college which is taking up a lot of time. I am doing my research project now for foundations and it's so hard to find subjects! I didn't think it would be this hard to find people to give me 5 mins of their time. It's times like these I realize how much of a loner I am and how that doesn't come in handy. But by December 17th I'll be done and out of this school and ready to start new in my life! And that fresh start will the best thing for me!


Well enough for now!

Peace and Love,

Andie Claire

To Begin At The Beginning

Well I never really know how to begin blogs or journals. It seems weird to just start writing about my life without ever being introduced...and plus today was rather boring. So I'll just start by telling about me. My name's Andie. In my last semester of college for a psychology degree which I have no idea what I'm going to do with. I live with my boyfriend, Daniel, and my dog which we just recently adopted named Missy. I love them both so much. Any time I have a bad day getting to come home to them always feels me with warm fuzzies. haha
 I'm very artistic. I love to sing, dance, act, and do crafts. I also love to read. My favorite author is Stephen King and I'm just starting the 7th Dark Tower book right now. I can't watch horror movies but I love to read them. I also like to read vampire books. They're my favorite supernatural character.
I LOVE Disney!! I love their movies, especially the princesses. And of course I love Disney World! I am actually going in 21 days with my boyfriend who planned the entire trip for me!! I am sooo excited to be down in Florida at one of my favorite places in the world!
I am also a big fan of musicals, love to shop, and go to new places. I would really love to travel and see other countries. I hope I get the oppertunity to do that in my life.
I'm very shy and it makes the things I love hard because the people who usually love to perform and such aren't shy haha. But it makes it really hard to notice someone like me who wants to learn more about it.
My life is a mystery right now. I don't really know who I am or where I'm going, but maybe that's normal about graduation? Anyway, all I know is I want to move to Florida and if I could lose weight I'd love to work at Disney World .
Well I'm going to say this is as good a start as any to a blog and call it quits here. Now we'll see if I actually keep up with this. I now prefer to keep it in a journal because I can keep that with me and it's more easily ready when I want to look back on my life and things I've thought and done. But maybe I'll keep up with this too because I do like to type haha :)

Peace, Love, and Understanding,

Andie Claire
