Where have you been?

Meh around. I made an order on PLNDR today so I decided to blog about it lol of course. I bought two items for my brother's christmas bundle [I'm just going to call it bundles instead of presents]. Since PLNDR is having some amazing Thanksgiving deals, I decided to check it out. I found an awesome pair of shoes and a hat for my brodie. I think it'll be nice with the shirt and sweater I already got him. 


My total came up to $26.68 with shipping. My mom was so surprised at the total lol. I only finalized my decision to purchase these items now because I was afraid that if I waited til Cyber Monday then they would be gone and I'd be devastated lol. No worries though! Cuz best believe I will be back on the site on monday lol.

Also, the fella and I broke up on Tuesday...so...I get to have his prezzies ^_^. See the light in the darkness :3

Another Plndr package...dont judge me

This order was made before the last one though! I don't have a problem! Just extra monties, codes, and good offers! But anyways, this is the shirt for the boyfriend and pair of shoes for myself. 
Isn't it cute lol
I got the shirt as a part of the bf's christmas gift of course. Yeah I'm more than likely done with him o.o. I just keep finding stuff that I know he'll like TT_TT lol. 
It's a skeleton fella on a bike white tank. He's quite the clean fellow, so I'm not worried of him messying it up lol.
Moving on to my new pair of shoes, HA. I got another pair of those comfy Cheap Monday shoes to match my others o.o....they were lonely lol.


Don't they look so cute together :3
I'm not quite sure I like the black laces on them sadly. I don't know why, but I thought they'd be white...BUT this just gives me a reason to buy some laces >:D muahahahaha. I actually wasn't thinking about switches the laces until now heh. I really like the bottom art. I'm almost afraid to wear them in fear that it'll be all janked up. If the event of that were to occur, at least I've still got the photos lol.
Also, I made chocolate chip cookie muffins on Friday. Yes choco chip COOKIE MUFFINS lol.

 I put marshmallows on two of them....they were so good! Especially when they were warm.

Changing it up: Karmaloop.com

So karmaloop has been sending me mad coupon codes this past week, and I had a little extra cash from my ebay sales so I bought a little something something for myself...along with a little something for my brother's christmas gift. At first I was going back to get these really cute stocking that would have been paired quite adorable with my winter attire....but when I did get back to my cart...they were gone TT_TT so I kinda full-filled one of my little guilty pleasure wants. For the longest, I have wanted a pair of Huf socks. I was even talking to my boyfriend about them today while we were surfing PLNDR [Im on plndr everyday I swear -_- rehab]. They didn't have any of the socks available in the Huf shop on plndr, so I decided to look through karmaloop and low and behold they had them for $12. I snagged this pair
The maroon on top of the grey is quite aesthetically pleasing. There were two other pairs, but I preferred this. These will be a nice addition to my hipster boy wardrobe, HA. And please no judging btw :3. After using all my codes these $18 pair of socks [after s&h was added] came down to $7.88 shipping included.
The item I scored for my brodie's christmas gift was this lovely shirt

It's an All Day brand V-neck tee. Aww look he can match my socks HA.After some coupons and such this shirt came down from $17.95 s&h included to $12.06 shipping included. I hope he likes it!
 Let's see how the rest of this experience with karmaloop goes after receiving ^_^. 

Til Then

P.S. I think I may buy a pair of american flag socks to match the pair I got for the bf...getting all mooshy

Yet another PLNDR related post

My unrelated british twin, Jordie-Bear, messaged me on skype letting me know there was a 50% off code for PLNDR. The code was exclusive to him, and since he [Jordie] also wanted a Mishka hat [that I am quite jealous of actually lol] which would cost an arm and a couple butt cheeks for him to purchase since he lives in the UK, so this was a group effort ^_^. I have had a cart full of $35 worth of stuff that has been waiting to be purchased for a couple weeks now. The hat made my total $55, but with the code I got everything for about $35 [$34 and some change] with shipping included. Which is way better than my $35 worth of items plus shipping. Here's what was purchased this go:

1. The Taos Beanie in Turquoise by Coal
Most likely for the bf's christmas prezzie...unless I fall in love with it and keep
it o.o..lol jk I'll just take it from him when I want to wear it :3
Coal makes some really awesome looking beanies too! I really want a few
for myself too.
2. The Avenue Crewneck in Heather Grey by Dope Couture
This is for my brother's christmas prezzie. I don't see him with words on his stuff anymore
on account of him being 23 years old, but I feel he may just enjoy this...
hopefully...lol plus I don't think he has a lot of Winter stuff anyways so there lol.
3 & 4. The Safe Tank in Gray & Black by Copy
These are both for the bf. I liked that pocket lol, and they were $6.99 each so I decided
he could have two. I think these two are the END of shopping for the bf
though lol. I'm not keeping track of how much I already bought
anymore XD.
5. The Oversized Death Adders New Era in Black by Mishka
Oh this beautiful Gem. Oh Oh why are you not for me beautiful gem, why?
This is for Jordie-bear lol. As much as I fuss and fight about that damn snake-
tongued bear, I can just never have him lol.
'Til Next Time
I'll be editing photos from a shoot earlier today

All of the things

My mind is constantly all over the place. Right now I'm thinking about this semester, how what I'd like to do with the future will go in conversation [oh the vagueness], Christmas, Macrame bracelet making, plushie animal earrings, eBay, this weekend, rocky horror, etc etc.
I don't want to talk about this semester or the "future" so I'll skip that... people make things vague for a reason..
I'll start with Christmas, which includes macrame, plush earrings, and eBay. Well since Starfish needs monties for christmas shopping and has no job, she's been selling quite a few things on ebay. Mostly my kawaii collection. I've been meaning to downsize it for forever. The fb shop I ran for a bit could only do so much, and then everybody wanting to get things for practically free was way too much for my patience. I had a good bit of sticker flakes and memo sheets to make grabbies, so those are bringing in a good bit of revenue. I also decided to put the color themed grab bags and other such single items up for sale also. I mean I wasn't getting as much as I wanted for them, but it's close. I'm also trying to keep my macrame bracelet making game up, but for one bracelet takes fooooorrrrreeevvvveeerrrrrrr. I manly stick to the Minecraft Creeper ones since they're most popular, but like I said it takes me like 3 hours to make one =_=.  I've just started making quite cute plush animal asymmetric dangle earrings. So far, I've made a bunny with carrot and a lion with steak. I may do a giveaway for a pair when I make enough variety of animals. I'll also list them on my etsy when they're ready lol.
Why this weekend racks my brain: Friday I have to host a Passion party so I need to buy refreshments/beverages and make sure there's enough room for the amount of people that may be coming. I'm also trying to get a little "get together" of sorts for afterwards done.. After that, I have a Trixie/Trannie/Mannie workshop that I must attend on Saturday. I have to do my makeup and wear my costume. Lastly, we come to Sunday. I have to wake at 10am for an unpaid photo-shoot dealing with chalk dust and smoke -_-...I have asthma...and am not getting paid...AND ITS AT FRICKEN 10am!!! I don't even know the fricken location yet. It's like I don't want to ask any info cuz I don't really care about it since Im unpaid. I mean it's for my campus fashion mag, and publications are always nice for resumes but these people post my photos online and dont credit me for 1. 2. I had been the photographer for the fashion mag for 2 issues [they do an issue a semester] for my sophomore year, and it seemed that they had already picked a new photographer but then I got a text from the president [maybe president I dunno what her position is] asking if I'd like to do the photography for them again. So what was the problem with the other girl? lol. 3. I don't like being not paid for my time and ish. They wanted me to do a shoot monday too...kiss my sass lol.

So I just noticed that all of this is probably some serious rambles since I am quite tired and it's 2:49am....so Im going to go to bed and forget what I was typing ^_^

You can never be too early...

I've decided that I'm just going to do as much christmas shopping as I can now, and maybe do some last minute stuff closer to christmas when they do sales and stuff. I think this is a better idea since when the sales come, I really really want to spend money on myself and am all *sad faced* when I must think of my receivers first. Since I've already started with the boyfriend, and just started on mi madre, I decided why not just knock the stuff out now?! So here are plans and purchases for presents SO FAR.

For starters, whom I shopping for includes: Mom, Dad, Brodie, Boyfriend, Best Friend. [boy has my list narrowed over the years o.o]


Mom
I haven't bought anything for mi madre yet, but I always like to spend the most time on her present. Since we're best buds and all I already know what to get her :3.

What I'd like to/Plan on buying
First thing is probably a purse to put everything in. Possibly some things for her Hookah [which I purchased for her for Mother's day :3]
Neko food charm - eBay
Leo Hello Kitty Keycap - eBay 
Purple fuzzy toe socks - Sock Dreams 
Plum midcalf kitty socks [madre likes cats] - Sock Dreams 
Funk blue Calf cat socks - Sock Dreams 
Noir Cat Knee Highs - Sock Dreams

Dad
Pops is quite hard for me to purchase for...since he mainly likes electronics...and Starfish ain't got electronics money. I did have my eye on maybe a carrying case thing for his ipad, or some snazzy carrying case for multiple or any of his electronics lol.

Brodie
Also am not sure what to get this fella...maybe some clothes....most likely some clothes..

Boyfriend
Bought
PLNDR
Germany flag pin - eBay
American Flag Socks - Sock Dreams
Would like to/Plan on buying
Galaxy shirt - eBay

American Flag Backpack [my baby likes Amer. flag] - eBay

Aztec Print Socks [if he doesn't end up buying them himself -_-] - Sock Dreams
Best Friend [Sara]
Lastly, is my best friend Sara. I will more than likely be getting her a purse with some red themed jewelry pieces, and maybe some tupac things. I saw this Tupac Good Wood Gun necklace that I'm sure she'd like....just gotta find where to get my hands on it again -_-.

As you can see...I've mainly been getting things for the boyfriend...well..he's on my mind a lot and I laptop screen shop a lot and I see things he may enjoy..a lot lol.
