What!?! You thought I forgot my promise?
No! See, my parents were buying a house. And they bought me and Twin a condo. So we are moving next month the 15th. So Ive been buuuusy!
Ok well, here are the pictures of my only finished shirt.
As you can tell, I didnt do it exactly liek the one on the book. I also made it a medium because I want to give it to my friend who is very tall (No! She is not fat! She is gorgeous!) But there I am shwoing it off.
This is perfect, me AND my truest love, The Dog. What purling puppies knitting blog is complete without photos of thier puppy and thier crocheted or knit shirt huh?! JEEEEEEEEEENNY She so perty.
I added this really hip little flower thing, it makes it looks so Japanese fashionable and makes it more appealing to look at. Otherwise its just so.. bland. Here you can see I did some cool double straps to hold it up. Cool huh?
This is the border... Umm its really pretty in real life but... I dunno. I also changed that a bit, but you can see how it sort of follows the shirt in the patons book.
Anyways, I finished Twin's sweater back. Twin finished a harry potter scarf on the loom and either than that I have no time. Once I move I will. Hopefully.
Whoo.

Thought I was gone did yah?! Ohoooo no! Remember that yarn I said I bought at a drug store?! Well, I have been putting it to good use, crocheting myself a lovely sweater based on this here shirt: 
I was gunna just make that but it isnt the same weight yarn, so I decided to do parts of the pattern and make it into a sweater since its coming out thicker than the shirt, and I wouldnt wear a thicker version of that XD So anyways, I will post some pics of it when its finished. And as for the back of Kesi's sweater... will it ever be done?! WILL I EVER FINISH IT?! I have alot of unfinished projects, but I just love doing new things all the time. I cant stay doing the same hting too long, thats why this sweater is nice, so much variation in the stitches. Ill also post some of my old projects when I put up my sweater, I have things like a kitchen rag thing I made to pick up pots with cause we had a lack of them and I was getting angry at that. And my harry potter top that I made for halloween. ALL THIS AND MORE... next time! Maybe.. maybe the time after. WHO KNOWS?!
I sure dont.
Anyways be back soon!

OH NO! Poopoo Jenny has a disease! (Actually, she either has an infected tick bite or a benign tumour)
I am reading The Vampire Lestat. Its not half as hot as the interview with the vampire, I am severely dissapointed as of yet, though Lestat is so hot, I absolutely dont like the name NICKI in it. It doesnt fit.
Anyways, Poo is on antibiotics. twin and I are still working somewhat diligently on the knitting website.
Heres what I have seen: 50 first dates- cute
Whale rider- really good (OI OI ARARA for JENNY!)
And AJ is giving me a valentine.
I was very angry and sad and all sorts of GRRRR on 13th and 14th, no doubt due to pms, and the fact AJ didnt call about the pie I got him. However he got in a car crash and so when I talked to him he said he loved his pie and that it was teh best.
I had to work both saturday and sunday when I thought I was going to get sunday off and I was sOOOO happy baout that. BUT NO after working saturday and then being told I was working the rest of the day saturday she goes "Ok, your working tommorrow" And I go "What, I am?"" she goes "I told you that already" Im like OH FUCK NO YOU DIDNT BITCH!
ARRRR and since I wasnt HAPPY saturday I was like ARRRRR
And I was pretty hard on the kid I babysit for but, looking back on it, I dont feel guilty. He's always pulling that "Cry when aya tries to get you to brush your teeth, say you are too tired and then when she turns off the light say you arent tired and make her angry" thing and he wouldnt put on his pajamas. He does this every time. I am no longer his baby sitter. Or, I hope I have the willpower to say no.
Anyways tommorrow Im babysitting! Thats cool! Yae for some money to pay off the vet bills.
Im babysitting for my two favorite kids, connor and Ian.
Anyways.
I tried to get my knitting project done the other day but I couldnt! I got like, five more rows done but I jsut cant do it! Arrr. Ill do it eventually.

OK! Been doing alot of serching for yarns and things to do stuff with. Noooo luck, nothing at all. I think I may work on that chenille scarf I was in the process of making. Well, I am reading Interview With the Vampire. It is the best, I decided to buy it one day cause I wanted to read Anne Rice and the movie is the epitemy of HOT. So after reading over half, I felt compelled to see the movie so I rented it, but they only had the video. I was depressed but it was all worth it because I watched it and I was like :O :O :O :O What hot men they are!
While I was in the store I decided I was a vampire because my skin felt deathly cold and I am EXTTREMELY pale. So pale its wierd, and my skin is flawless, like a vampire. So I chaed Margaritas kids around and we had fun and then I was dying of hunger and Margarita cam in and be-ed a bitch to them and Im like GRRR and next time Ill be like "YOU STUPID FUCK" (that whole making peace with god thing is a joke.)
So anyways my parents and us are gunna go look at this creepy house we saw on Saturday so I gget to go explore and scare myself shitless and tap into my psychic powerzes. I love scaring myself crapless. Currently my bird is... Well, nevermind I cant tell what it is exactl he is trying to accomplish. OH I better go finish my book. I love it so.

Done alot lately. I hope I lost my job (I really dont want to have to say it straight out that I quit)
I got some books by anne rice to test her style of writing, so far Im engaged, which is wonderful cause I usually read a while then dump it. I am currently reading Interview With the Vampire cause, hi, the movie was HAWT.
Speaking of movies being hot, I was babysitting today and we watched The Medallion and guess who had a cameo!? NICHOLAS TSE! How my body shivers with desire and absolute adoration of the word beauty in all its humanly form! How cute he is when he speak English (Mind you, he sounds much better in Cantonese. Unless, of course, you are listening to his song "Let Me Die" Cause that song kicks ass) How wierd it is that today I have been so keen to my psychic sense.
So I spent all friday cleaning Steve's house, and then today I went to Santa Cruz to go see a movie and buy some bookz. Twin and I saw Girl With a Pearl Earring. It was not as good as Id hoped, but it was good. And then I had a psychic realization. As we were leaving the store, I go "Oh look, Twin! They have the Amici forever CD" For some reason in my head I go "Canntooo alla viiiitaa!" then I thought to myself (mind you, thoughts are faster than words) "No, tthey arent cool like Josh Groban" Lo and behold when I flipped the CD over there was Canto Alla Vita!
Now you may call this a trivial thing, frivilous, if you will, but I got that quelling in my sould as I thought it, and as unneeded as that information was, it felt like something a little more than a thought. Like the stomach wrenching I get around spirits. Its the same feeling Ive got all the other times. IS IT COINCIDENCE?! Maybe. But maybe Im psychic. Either way is fine with me!
Anyways, I got them books and some food and went home.
Then I called Margarita. She wanted me to babysit for the equivalent of an hour at 10:30. Now, I realize its 10:30 right now, so it will not make much sense, but Im sure my staying up this late is some inner act of teenage defiance. I go to bed at 8, it is VERY hard for me to stay up. No, not normally, but I have been depriving myself of sleep all this week to talk to my (now fiance) AJ who gets on after 10. So Ive been staying up till 2 in the morning and waking at 7 like always.
So I feel very WEARY in the first place. Not to mention, if I was to stay up that late, Id want to babysit longer, and charge 7 dollars an hour instead of 5. No, in fact, 10 dollars feels about right to me right now. Then I could babysit only 2 hours and be fine with it, but to stay up that late Ill need at least 20.
You see, I dont believe anyone should have to pay thier arm and leg for good childcare, however, I also cannot accept such a low price for giving up that time I could be nourishing my health so I can babysit more children. You know what I mean? I dont look out for myself enough and Ive become for lack of better words Weary and run down. I have to catch a buss in the middle of the day to go work an hour, then I go across the street to hang out with Tiwn for about an hour till I need to work again. I do this cause I can take a ride home with her. Realize it costs 6 dollars to get there and back on the bus. So two hours is not sufficient. I cant do it anymore, I wont do it anymore, not for babysitting, not for anything, its wearing me out, and Im not getting skinnier off of being worn out. the only one Id do it for babysitting is Mike. Cause.. I feel sufficiently paid for the job I do.
Anyways I called her to cancel and she pulled that "RRIIIIIIIIGHT... Well, you know.. when you are babysit-" I was telling her "Oh well, maybe we can work something out" cause Im TOO DAMM NICE and then she pulled that. Dylan knows how much the phrase, and the tone of "riiiiiight" unnerves me (Mind you, only when they are serious about it. Its so CHILDISH.) So Im like "Oh yeah Im going to have to cancel." Then I hung up.
Oh Aya! Not a good thing to do to your boss! You say? She is a CHILD. It INFURIATES me sometimes how much CONFIDENCE I can have in people to ACT THIER AGE and yet they pull this SHIT with me.
I can handle normal shit pulling, but not like this. This is the second time she's tried to talk down to me and when she called me back Im like "Listen, dont pull that "riiiiiight" crap with me, I know perfectly well my responsibilities as a babysitter, better than youll ever know, Ive been doing this for years. However put yourself in my position" and I went on to explain my theory up there about babysitting.
This is the second time she's done something like this and I almost quit the first time.
The first time we were in the store and I was going to write a receipt for these two women. Well, they didnt know how to pay and she wanted me to ring it up together...
Well.. Margarita was holding the bug cage putting it in its carriying case, mind you we have two, so I paused and she goes "Well? Why ar eyou pausing, write the receipt" and since I still wasnt sure if they were buying the bug cage (They were still decided between the other things) I said "Have you figured out how you want to pay?" and they finally decided, one would pay and the other would pay her back. So Margarita, who is always telling me random things prices to price them and such nonsense goes "This bug catcher is 11.99" and I go "So they're buying it?" And she got all Well, I dont know what the attitude was she took but its the one I dont like she goes "Of course they are, what do you think!?" And I shoulda told her "Listen bitch, dont you take hat tone with me, you could well want me to put a price tag on it, with your unorganized obscure instruction, how the fuck am I supposed to know, you stupid whore." But instead I said "Oh well, I guess I must be tired *heehee* I did stay up a little late last night." and she goes "You shouldnt stay up when you knwo you have work the next morning" I said "Im a teenager." ... end of story. BUT NO THIS STORY DOESNT END THERE. She was a FUCKING idiot the rest of the day, no, not the rest, she had started before that, being really pushy about shoving things in customer's face, and giving them HORRID suggestions that I had to counteract and appologize for her forceful nature while she was out of the room.
So I blamed it on menopause and the stars. And indeed a week or two later I felt like it had never happened so Im sure it was a planet in retrograde. HOWEVER she asked me thursday to babysit saturday, I was going to babysit without Twin from 8 till 12 or so. And I agreed. Then yesterday she asked if I could babysit from 10:30 since they found extra tickets for the kids to go to a basketball game with them and I... am too nice and agreed, so technically it was my fault. But then I also really dont like it when people try to lay the guilt trip on me "Oh but I planned this with my friends two weeks ago!" You didnt know you would have sitter till two days ago! "now Ill have to cancel on them." Not my problem, girl.
Ok, enough ranting!
Too much talk, too little knit.

This is the second time she's done something like this and I almost quit the first time.
The first time we were in the store and I was going to write a receipt for these two women. Well, they didnt know how to pay and she wanted me to ring it up together...
Well.. Margarita was holding the bug cage putting it in its carriying case, mind you we have two, so I paused and she goes "Well? Why ar eyou pausing, write the receipt" and since I still wasnt sure if they were buying the bug cage (They were still decided between the other things) I said "Have you figured out how you want to pay?" and they finally decided, one would pay and the other would pay her back. So Margarita, who is always telling me random things prices to price them and such nonsense goes "This bug catcher is 11.99" and I go "So they're buying it?" And she got all Well, I dont know what the attitude was she took but its the one I dont like she goes "Of course they are, what do you think!?" And I shoulda told her "Listen bitch, dont you take hat tone with me, you could well want me to put a price tag on it, with your unorganized obscure instruction, how the fuck am I supposed to know, you stupid whore." But instead I said "Oh well, I guess I must be tired *heehee* I did stay up a little late last night." and she goes "You shouldnt stay up when you knwo you have work the next morning" I said "Im a teenager." ... end of story. BUT NO THIS STORY DOESNT END THERE. She was a FUCKING idiot the rest of the day, no, not the rest, she had started before that, being really pushy about shoving things in customer's face, and giving them HORRID suggestions that I had to counteract and appologize for her forceful nature while she was out of the room.
So I blamed it on menopause and the stars. And indeed a week or two later I felt like it had never happened so Im sure it was a planet in retrograde. HOWEVER she asked me thursday to babysit saturday, I was going to babysit without Twin from 8 till 12 or so. And I agreed. Then yesterday she asked if I could babysit from 10:30 since they found extra tickets for the kids to go to a basketball game with them and I... am too nice and agreed, so technically it was my fault. But then I also really dont like it when people try to lay the guilt trip on me "Oh but I planned this with my friends two weeks ago!" You didnt know you would have sitter till two days ago! "now Ill have to cancel on them." Not my problem, girl.
Ok, enough ranting!
Too much talk, too little knit.

She's mine! Wrahahahahah!
Still working on Twin's coat, she'll look so nice in it when its done. I realized yesterday evening I did over six rows WRONG. AUUUU! But Im not going back, Im gunna just calculate what I need to make up for it, It doesnt have to be perfect. I decided to see how a normal stockinette stitch would do on Fung...
....
....
Im still making the swatch. I think Ill make a tshirt for my bunny rabbit (its a jelly cat plushies!) out of it. It will take days, though, at this rate *eyes Fung and his two projects wearily* Im so messy.
Ill post a picture of my mess laters.
For now, I will leave you with THIS HUZZAH!
