Fall Fashion Week: day seis

I don't have much to say today since my suns fell apart in the 4th quarter...again. so I'm pretty bummed about it. I scratched up my leg with the stupid fan things they gave us, I barely have any voice, and I have a headache that feels like a hangover although I didn't drink anything. so on top of being pissed off at my suns, I'm feeling pretty crummy.

anyways, I'm cheating. today I'm helping my aunt and cousin move so I'll be wearing a tee and shorts all day but that's no fun. so here's an outfit that I could wear whenever fall comes back. our fall seemed to have periodically left since it's in the 80's again and I'm wearing shorts. whatev.

top, jacket, & boots: kohl's
jeans: charlotte russe

hope everyone else is having a great weekend & don't forget to give love to the lovely ladies.

go here for the full list of challenge questions.

Fall Fashion Week: day cinco

I have two looks again for today. the first look is what I wore yesterday and was completely inspired by rachel's monday look where she wore an adorable lace-sleeve top. when I first think lace sleeves I think...grade schoolish? but rachel made them look so adorable and fun I told her I wanted one! well while shopping I found these lacey (& semi-poofy) sleeve tops. I was a little hesitant but it was like they were calling out to me to try something different and buy them. so in my attempt to look as beautiful and awesome as rachel I decided to give it a shot. I'm trying not to think of it as copy-ing her, just more of being inspired by her fashion. so here's my spin on it:

the whole outfit is from kohl's except the shoes. the shoes are probably the most expensive flats I've ever bought. they're from aldo. here's a close up of some of the details.

the next look is what I'm actually wearing today. today is an important day for a nerd/sports freak like me. today is the day we (and by we, I mean the suns) take our revenge on the stupid lakers. they (in combination with amar'e stoudemire's lack of playing his best) are the reason we didn't make it to the finals. we were this close! those bastards. anyways, chris & I have half season tickets and we definitely lucked out with our package because not only do we get the first home game, but we get the first home game against the lakers. so it's going to be a crazy/stressful night for me. hopefully we'll win.

suns 2010 playoff "beat la" shirt: suns team shop
jeans: wet seal
booties: kohl's

I'm also including this picture because chris says it's my natural smile which he loves. :) for some reason when I take pictures I do this overly smile deal which I don't know how NOT to do. my parents were making fun of me at this moment which made me laugh and he happened to catch it. he then told me to practice it.

can't wait to see your looks whenever I get around to them! go check out how beautiful these ladies are!

Fall Fashion Week: day cuatro

wow there's so many awesome looks! I wish I had more hours in the day to be able to go through all of them (I'm still on Tuesday looks). I'll catch up eventually so don't be surprised if you get a comment from me that's days late.

I'm glad the belt was a success - I've never done a belt around a top before so I was a little hesitant. I figure now's the time to be bold though.

no date night tonight - it's been pushed back to next week. too bad - my date look was hot. ;)

I had some errands to finish since I didn't have enough time yesterday. the arizona weather is creeping back as it was a little warm today - warm enough for me to wear shorts - and I get cold easily. so here's my look, simple & comfy:

sweater top: mudd - kohl's
shorts: wet seal
head band: kohl's
boots: candies - kohl's
necklace: charming charlie

the second photo is my ho-down dance pose. I don't country dance (let alone listen to much country - although I can't get taylor swift's new cd out of my head - seriously I have a weird mashup of half the songs playing over and over in my head & I don't know why...I'm kinda scared) so I guess it's my interpretation of the ho-down. I was hoping my hair was long enough to braid into pigtails but I'm not even close. trying to grow my hair out is like jumping off a plane. it's sooo hard.....ok that was a bad analogy - it's nothing like jumping off a plane. but you get the point. maybe? it's hard. I haven't had long hair since I was in 5th grade. short hair is so wonderful and amazingly easy to handle. with longer hair I always feel obligated to do something with it as soon as I get out of the shower, otherwise it gets this funky outward curl thing on the bottom.

anyways, onto the deets:

the first pic is to show the little details of the top. it's not much, but I think it gives a little edgy feel. you can see my piles of cd's in the second pic. and I didn't realize my hair looked that red in the light.

thanks again for your sweet comments. they're definitely a picker-upper during the rough and downer week I've been having so far.

please share the love with the other fabulous ladies!

Day 13: A letter to someone who has hurt you recently

the only person who has really hurt me recently is well aware of my pain so I don't find much of a need to write it out for the world to see.....so I'll do this instead.

dear my dearest pepper,

I know you're just a pup, but seriously, you need to chill out. the constant running up and down the stairs, in and out the doggie door, and on and off the bed are driving me crazy. I can't keep track of you. I turn my back and you're on the counter! how are you getting up on the counter!! you're tiny!

speaking of how tiny you are, you aren't really that tiny. the vet said you'd be lucky to get to 30 lbs and you're well over 40 (I wouldn't be surprised if you are over 50!). you were supposed to stay tiny. you were my little puppy. you fit so well into my arms and curled up so perfectly next to my chest. what happened? your disease was supposed to stunt your growth, not work like miracle growth.

speaking of you almost dying, what the hell?! we saved you're life and you repay us by chewing every possible thing in sight and waking us me up at 2 am? you obliterated our bouganvilla plant that didn't even get the chance to bloom. you get our spatula off the counter & gnaw on it. you tear apart my underwear (although I know this is a joint effort with ginger).

and speaking of ginger, I know you idolize her, but please, PLEASE, don't follow her bad habits. don't become her. be your own dog. you already jump on people when they come to the door and now you're starting to learn to bark at every moving thing outside. don't succumb to peer pressure. don't be a follower. ginger doesn't even like you that much anyways.

but I love you. more than chris. so stop cuddling up with him and cuddle up with me again. it hurts you choose him over me. I miss you. you're so far away yet you're at my feet. come back, my little one.

love,

mom

Fall Fashion Week: day tres

I had a pretty rushed day yesterday so my look is kind of thrown together. I was able to go to kohl's and shop the hell outta that place. it's nice to make good money at work and be able to have shopping sprees. buuut it also took me like 2 and a half hours to get out which got me home (or to my parents' house) just in time for the suns game. so I have 2 looks for today (again) and no flannel! (even though I love flannel, I didn't realize that I wore it in both of my looks yesterday, whoops.) thank you all for your sweet comments. I haven't had time to check out everyone's tuesdays looks yet, but I will when I get home from work today.

so look 1 is what I actually wore for the evening (minus my shopping spree). megan, my sister (in-law), was my stand-in photographer since chris chose to spend the night at work....again. (no, I am not happy with him at the moment.)

as you can see, we're rooting for the suns. that's my mamma cheering with me. & the last picture was my way of showing that I was wearing two jerseys. I'm pretty superstitious when it comes to suns games...but that's a different story.

my second look is some of the buys I got from my kohl's shopping trip. just so I felt like I dressed up a little.

tunic: say what? - kohl's
brown leggins: candies - kohl's
bow belt: kohl's

sadly, I don't think I'll be getting my date night tomorrow since I don't know when chris will come back home. so I'll just have to dress up for home again. can't wait to see what you all are wearing!

bounce over to emery's blog to check out the other beautiful ladies!

ps: I usually don't look that put together at 5am, but I've been getting used to having to wake up at 4am to look semi-decent for work.

pss: & rachel - my hair is super major fine too and I didn't do anything to it soooooo it's totally possible you could rock longer hair. <3

Day 11 & 12 (whoops!)

Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends

me, tea, & allison on a ferry in san diego

Day 12- How you found out about Tumblr blogger and why you made one

I had to look up what tumblr was and realized I'm not using one. I found blogger by googling blogs and started one to vent about my frustrations with living with roommates. that's the story. I know. fascinating.

see the whole list here.

Fall Fashion Week: day dos

so I'm a little disappointed in my arizona weather. after going through everyone's fashion posts yesterday I've come to the conclusion that either every blogger who participated live really close to each other or my home town is just unlucky. everyone seemed to be having a rainy monday - not here in apache junction/miami, az. nope. clouds, sure, but no rain.

for those of you who are curious: here's my "out the door" look at 5 o'clock in the morning.

flannel: target
jeans: vf factory
holes in jeans: copper sulfate solution
belts: target
purple cons: kohl's

that's my: I'm-totally-awake-now-and-motivated-to-work look. I work at a copper mine. I don't have to wear a uniform persay, but we do have strict dress code policies (well not too strict, but again, the risk of getting acid on your clothes kind of prevents you from wearing anything too nice - see exhibit a: torn up jeans - totally did not buy them like this). this is what I wear to work usually (fall edition) and when I get to the mine I change into my steel toed boots, add a few more layers (it's usually around 10 degrees cooler at work - ew) put on my red hard hat, my scratch up safety glasses, and my over-sized reflective safety vest. not too cute.

I had such good intent to come home from work yesterday and take a trip to kohls to take advantage of their sale and my 30% off coupon (seriously - how does that store make any profit??) since I realized that I don't have much of a fall wardrobe. well it didn't happen because my monday sucked and I didn't feel like doing anything when I got home. I barely found the energy to get dressed up. buuuut I did.

top: charlotte russe
jeans: kohl's
black & white puppy = pepper
brown puppy = ginger

we recently got some trees for our bare backyard. I'm posing next to our new eucalyptus. I started a tradition in my family that whenever anyone in the family buys their first house, you have to plant a eucalyptus. my parents planted one when they moved into their first house, so I thought it would be neat to make it a tradition. if you've never seen a full grown eucalyptus before they get huge. monsterous. the trunk is probably as thick as I am tall minus a foot or two. (at least the one we had growing up was.) I'm not sure why ours is so funny looking though. I thought it'd be funny to pretend to pose next to a huge tree. and of course my pups couldn't resist getting in my pictures.

the accessories:

kick-ass blue cons: kohl's
peacock necklace: forever 21
key earrings: target
teal blue nail polish (if you can see it): walgreens

my "photographer" wanted to join in the fun too.

unfortunately, I don't think my outfits will get much more exciting this week as fashion week came at a bad time for me. this week is a super busy week. I've got to finish putting together my office furniture, today marks the opening of the suns season, date night wednesday (hopefully), dinner for the parents thursday, and sun home opener vs. the lakers on friday which we'll be attending. so I'll try to make time for fashion.

check out the other awesome fashionistas here!

Fall Fashion Week: day uno

the most wonderful time of the year has come once again - and no, I'm not talking about basketball season (although first suns game is TO-MOR-ROW!!!) and no, I'm not talking about christmas (although that is coming up pretty quick, isn't it?), but FALL FASHION WEEK BABY!! you must go see how stylish these lovely ladies can be, fo' sho', yo.

since I spend 10 hours of my day wearing lame work clothes where I can't express my fashionality too much due to the risks of getting cute stuff caught in moving parts and having things ruined by acid (gotta love my job), my outfits are going to be my "after-work specials." but because I get home from work soo late and I'm usually uber tired, I had to keep one step ahead this time.

with that being said, here's my saturday night look for dinner at buffalo wild wings with friends.

top: express
jeans: charlotte russe
boots: wet seal
awesome-ness: parents

don't mind the puppies roaming around and my hair's kinda dull since I just got out of the shower - I've decided I'm going to attempt to grow it out (which I haven't been able to successfully do since I was in elementary school when I wasn't aware of the amazing-ness that is short hair). it's been quite chilly the past week but I think it's going to be warm again this week, so I might not get to show off too many pairs of jeans, but we'll see. (plus I think my favorite jeans are still at my parents' - eek.)

enjoy the other looks of fashion week 2010 here.

Day 10: Songs you listen to when you are Happy, Sad, Bored, Hyped, Mad

• "your love" by midtown (it's off the punk goes 80s cd).
• "cute without the e (cut from the team)" by taking back sunday.
• "crack the shutters" by snow patrol.
• "closer" and/or "I want you" by kings of leon.
• "I want you back" by 'n sync. (don't judge me).
• "dog days are over" by florence and the machine.
• "too much time on my hands" by styx.
• "the next room" by neon trees.

those are some of my faves.

see the whole list here.

fall fashion week starts tomorrow. can't wait to see everyone's outfits.

Day 09: Something you’re proud of in the past few days

I haven't really done anything to be proud of in the past few days...I guess I haven't had any fights with chris within the past week which is good and something to be proud of. although, I'm afraid we didn't have any fights because I'm just so exhausted of fighting and don't feel like talking to him much. but hey, no fighting is a good thing right?

yesterday after work and today I've started putting together our office furniture. (chris semi-helped me yesterday.) we've got the filing cabinet and bookcase done and I just have the desk and hutch to do and it's still pretty early, so I'm proud that I'm getting it done rather than putting it off. I can't wait until our office is done & functional. :)


go here if you want to see the full challenge.

why I love copper: a prelude to a new "dreaming in copper" series

I think it's safe to say that I love copper. you might even say that I'm borderline obsessed with it. I try to hide it, but it's hard when chris is also a copper nut. I guess that's what happens when you both work at a copper mine.

I love the metallic, antique look of copper. I love how malleable it is and how you can shape it into virtually anything. I love how it changes different colors when different chemicals are applied. I love how it oxidizes to a green color. I love how it is a deep blue when concentrated in acidic solution. I love how light it typically is. I love how you can practically use it for anything - from electrical to fashion. I love the way it sounds for a dog's name (like in the fox and the hound!). I love the process in which it is extracted and made. It is truly an amazing metal.

the final product of a copper mine
(aka a bundle of copper cathodes)

native copper

native copper

where I work, I see the final product of the copper mine every day. I see it go from being a mineral in a rock, to a solution, to a big slab of copper (which is what we make in my department). (in technical terms, that's from the leaching, to solvent extraction, or SX, to electrowinning, or EW - I specifically work in the EW.) for chris and I, 2 of our 3 summer internships in college were at copper mines so we have a personal attachment to the metal. our first internship was one that we got lucky in getting (well, chris got lucky & used his charming talking skills to get me in). we spent most of the summer going around the mine collecting native copper in the berms (berms are what they call big piles of dirt that line the road to stop/slow you from going off the side of a bench/cliff). we definitely took that internship for granted because (1) we soon realized that interns are not normally allowed to drive around a mine without supervision or proper training and (2) native copper is not normally found anywhere. now we have so much native copper lying around our house and our parents' houses (because we had so much we started giving them away, which now we don't since it's so rare). 

every time we see something made of copper or copper plated or made to look copperish at the store, chris and I get waaaay overly excited. we have to fight the urge to buy anything and everything copper. it's something we both can connect on, as sad as that sounds, because we both love copper so much. our family and friends are aware of our copper obsession admiration and point out copper stuff they find. I've always wanted a beagle that I can name copper. for a while I wanted my wedding color to be copper (until I found how difficult it is to find copper colored bridesmaid dresses). chris named our internet server CopperHouse. even the downstairs of our house has a copper theme.

this lady that lives in colorado does these amazing art pieces for the corporate offices of company we work for and we just had to get one. she applies different chemicals to a sheet of copper and swirls it around to make different designs. depending on the temperature also depends on what color some of the chemicals make the copper. we have this hanging in our dining area and it looks so amazing.

chris's mom got this for us. it's some old copper tub of some sorts that we have in our living room next to our tv. we use it to store the dogs' toys.

chris mom also got us these and we placed them on our tv table on either sides of the tv.










other copper or copper looking things I/we own:

they give these copper coffee mugs to new employees in my department so I was pretty stoked when I became a new employee. I use it for hot tea though.

I got the key chain from a career fair the year after we interned at asarco. it's the shape of a copper anode which are made at the smelter. (we make copper cathodes where I work.) for the longest time it was the only key chain I had with my keys (I don't like a lot of crap on my keys) - that is until I got my suns sixth man key chain. :)

we saw this wall hanging thing at a little store in a little town in pennsylvania when we were visiting chris's grandma in new york over the summer. the lid flips open to revel little hooks. we didn't know what it was used for but chris thought it would be a good idea to store our keys in it because no one would be able to know what it is. we later found a tag on it that called it a "key holder" - he was pretty heartbroken he didn't come up with the brilliant idea.

Day 08: Short term goals for this month and why

1. get office furniture put together and placed into office and organize all that shit so that the office is a functional office. it's hard to pay bills and do anything in an office where you have no space to put anything.
2. get Bentley's oil changed. because he's been needing it for a couple of weeks now.
3. put up new fan in guest bedroom. because it gets stuffy and it needs one.
4. install garage door opener. so I don't have to get out in this cold weather to use all my energy to manually lift it up.
5. see my future fiance in the social network with chris. because I wanna see it since I heard such good things about it.
6. get something accomplished at work. because I'm starting to feel like a worthless employee.
7. hang out with a friend. because I'm lame and lonely.
8. get rid of chris's car. because I'm sick of it taking up space in our driveway when no one drives it and it's a piece of shit. seriously, it shakes violently when you drive it and I just feel dirty sitting in it.
9. finish my little craft projects. so that I can organize my stuff and use my creative juices for something.

and that's mainly what I want to get done in the next 30 days or so.

Day 07: A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you

my tata & I

my tata: he's inspired me to always continue to improve my life and my skills/trades. he was constantly doing things. and he was so talented in so many different areas. he painted beautiful sceneries, he crafter amazing furniture from wood, and made the most delicious mexican food. he's inspired me to be kind to all and to always allow people into my home. he was always helping others and making loved ones different things. my brother & I have a little chair he made us when we were little kids. mine says "'lil luvie." I remember going over to his house every christmas morning and smelling tamales and beans while he was listening to the grand canyon suite.  he was such a wonderful person and I miss him every day. he passed away almost 2 years ago, unexpectedly - at least for me.

my mom & I

my mom: my mom is my rock. she keeps me sane. she is the person who I can talk to about anything and everything. she is my best friend. she is my role model. she's taught me to be unselfish and think about others first. she's also shown me never to give up and to never stop trying.

my dad & I

my dad: sometimes I think my dad is my twin. we have the same sense of humor and same attitude and stubborness. he's taught me to laugh and never take life too seriously. he's also taught me how to work hard and not half-ass anything. you need to earn what you get and not let it be handed to you. even though my dad and I argue a lot (going back to being twins), I love my dad very much and can't imagine him not being in my life.



click here for the full list of questions.

Day 06: Favorite super hero and why

this one's hard for me to answer because I don't really have a favorite superhero. although I've seen the modern movies of Batman and Iron Man and such (Iron Man is probably my fave since, like my sister so accurately described, I love "the sense of humor that Robert Downey Jr. brings to the character") but I didn't watch the cartoons or read the comic books with the normal superheros growing up. I watched power rangers. and teenage mutant ninja turtles. and the original transformers. and when I think of superheros, those aren't the ones that come to mind.

so instead of choosing a superhero, I'm gonna go with an awesome, bad-ass cartoon character who helped save the world. and in that case, I choose leonardo from the original movies of teenage mutant ninja turtles. he was my favorite because (a) he was the blue one & blue was my favorite color at the time (b) he was the only one who I felt had a real weapon - out of the four, I think a sword would do the most damage and (c) I liked his attitude and just thought he was a total bad-ass. Michelangelo would come in second because he was funny and liked pizza....mmm...pizza.

Day 05: A picture of somewhere you’ve been to

niagra falls, canada

find the full list of the 30 day challenge here.

seriously done

your words will no longer force a tear
       I deserve better than that.
your struggles can not bring me more stress
       my support and love will never fade.
your lack of focus will not control my life
       we will get through this.

I will climb out.
I will break through the darkness.
and I will be me again.

just a sloppy poem I threw together (I haven't truly written for a good 5 years). but basically I'm turning over my new leaf today. I am motivated. I will keep myself busy doing fun things (DIY crafts!). I'm done feeling sorry for myself and feeling like my life is so horrible. there are families who can't afford a meal for days. sure my life's got it shitty situations and moments, but I am strong enough to take everything as a lesson and grow from it. there's no reason for me to be depressed. there's no reason for me not to be happy.

a lot of shit's been thrown in my face the past few weeks that I wanted to take the easy way out. I didn't want to deal with anything anymore. I was exhausted. but I'm over that. everything that happens in life is a challenge and a lesson to learn. and I should embrace it all. even if it does blow. nothing should be able to control my destiny. only I can control my destiny. only I can choose to be happy or depressed.

reasons to be happy right now:

1. got my hair done last week & I'm still oohing & ahhing over it.
2. I'm almost done with my jewelry organizer project. can't wait to show it off!
3. getting awesome office furniture tomorrow. now I can finally organize endless piles of papers and shit and decorate the office (yay suns room!)
4. chris & I get to go to our first suns game of the [pre]season!!! 
5. getting to spend endless amounts of time with the fam.
6. pepper's still growing & is more awesome every day!
7. things are good and will continue to get better with chris & mine's relationship.
8. basketball season starts in a week!!!
9. I'm going to eat lunch now. yum

Day 04: A habit that you wish you didn’t have

it took me a while to figure this one out - I have a lot of annoying habits, but one that I wish I didn't have? which of my habits hinder my ever day living to the extent that I wish I didn't have it? of course, most bad habits you wish you didn't have, but it's not the end of the world. take biting nails for instance. if I'm not biting my nails, I'm biting the skin around my nails but my nails always grow back and my skin eventually heals. so I don't find it that big of a deal.

I guess what bothers me the most - and you may find it gross - but the habit I wish I could stop is picking at pimples/zits/blackheads/whiteheads/bumps. it doesn't help when all the women in my family also do it and almost encourage it (hey, let me get that mountain on your forehead!). it takes physical effort for me not to pick at my face. and I don't have serious acne issues, but since I pick at my face so much I tend to scar and make those suckers worse.

bastards.

Day 03: A recent picture of you and your friends

phil, nell, me, kyle, & tea at my birthday bash 8/28/10

it's kinda blurry, but this is pretty much my family.♥

Day 2: The meaning behind your blog name

 I'm not very creative when it comes to putting words together. I said it one time and thought it was kinda of clever.

I really enjoy the simple things in life. I love spending time with my family whether it's watching a movie or playing board games or doing a puzzle with my mom. I'm not high maintenance - I don't spend hours on my hair or makeup. I don't waste my time worrying what other people think of me. I wear what's comfortable and cute. I used to love going on hikes and fishing and such (I've been too lazy lately but I will get back into it).

but at the same time, not only is life complicated itself, but I guess I feel like it's complicated to really get me and understand my priorities and passions. I spend too much time worrying and thinking in general so I tend to over complicate the simple.

see the full list here.

Day 1: A recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about yourself.

1. people have been calling me "sparky" since the 7th grade and it's now caught on at work.
2. I spend most of my time at work making excel worksheets and flow diagrams.
3. sometimes I feel like I'm 30 rather than 23.
4. I crave sushi more than someone who doesn't like fish should.
5. I'm starting to think I'm borderline depressed.
6. I wanted to be a storm chaser growing up.
7. I get really passionate when I watch basketball and a lose can sometimes ruin my night.
8. I currently have 3 tattoos and ideas/plans for at least 4 more.
9. whenever I get married I want my husband to take my last name, because what last name could be cooler than sparks?
10. I learned how to drive and got my license when I was 21 years old. never found much of a reason to drive before then.
11. I eat french fries a lot. probably too much, but they're my favorite.
12. I'd rather play board games than go to the bar.
13. my ultimate goal in life is to own more cd's than my dad.
14. I'm pretty plain when it comes to food and never use condiments. that includes no ketchup with my piles of french fries.
15. the thing I miss the most from my childhood is marching band.
    

see the complete list here.

30 days of questions

I came across this from a blog I just happened to take a look at. I usually am not fond of questionnaires (I find them childish and lacking truth) but I figured, why not? I really need something to distract me from my reality right now. I'm so tired of my life right now that I need something, anything, to remind me that life is good.

so here are the questions/topics. each day I'll answer them - starting tomorrow (due to lack of personal pictures at work and lack of free time when I get home tonight).
