Ok so I know I've been promising pictures of the sailor moon theme and I am planning to upload them later today but for now I'm trying to kill some time.

So today I got myself an Iphone. :) its only a 2nd gen 8gb, but it was only $40. Granted there is a crack in the screen I'm going to need to get fixed but I know a guy who says he can get it done for $35.
So all in all $75 for an Iphone is pretty good even though I'm only going to be using it as an Itouch since I already have a blackberry that I love.

Mostly I want to play with the software since software is kinda my thing and I'd love to play around with it. If I'm really unhappy I'll post it back onto Kijiji and sell it for hopefully more then I got it for.




On another note I did some shopping with my oldest friend this weekend in Toronto. Mostly window shopping but I did get one cool t-shirt with an octopus on it.



Some other things I looked at that I thought were worth mentioning were some really amazing dresses that I considered for the wedding I need to go to next month. I'm going to show you some of my favorite things. <3>



One of the best things I saw was this dress from forever21. I'm considering picking this up for a wedding I'm going to in June. I'm not sure if it will look as good in a size 12 and I didn't get a chance to try it on.




If I don't see anything else I like I will go back and try it on though. At less then 30 dollars its hard to say no.






Forever21 was full of great stuff! I also saw this bag with a panda on it for only $1.50.





I was going to buy it but I didn't have any change and there was a huge line. In the end laziness won out.


I also went into 1 million comics and saw some pretty sweet Buffy the vampire swag. There was a really sweet slayer kit that came with Buffy's cross and the ring angel gave her. I couldn't find it on amazon :(

So as I mentioned in my last post I'm working on a sailor moon theme for the blackberry and yes it is going to be free to download. So far its going pretty well, but as I'm making all the icons by hand then scanning them into photoshop to be cleaned up and pained its taking some extensive time. I don't want to just throw random items and pictures in there, I want every item to express what its being used for. So for instance, the alarm clock is going to look like sailor moons alarm clock that her mother buys her in one of the early episodes. All the games are going to have a Sailor V sprite from the video games they play in the show. I'm having a hard time thinking up all the icons but so far its been a lot of fun going over all my old sailor moon DVDs.
I'm planing to show off some screen shots of the finished icons and the wallpapers on my next post from my home PC with all my files on it.
I also want to upload some pictures of my new jewelry as well as some of my new wallpapers and drawings. so keep your eye open for some cool pictures and a few free wallpapers.
I'm also planning to do some small graphics for this blog. I'd like to go a few cute vector drawings and maybe some custom graphics.
Other then that there isn't much else going on for me to talk about other then some personal drama that I might tell you guys about a little later when I'm more upset and looking to rant a little bit.
So you all have a great day and keep your eye open for screenshots and pictures! :)

Welcome

Welcome to the first post of "I think my cats been reading my diary." I picked this blog name because its one of my favorite quotes from Glee. If your not a Glee fan don't worry, that's not what this blog is all about... Mostly.

What it is about is a collection of things that interest me.
This page is going to include a lot of things, from what I thought of last weeks episodes of Glee or The Big Bang Theory to rants about what's going on in my life. But a few things I'm going to be focusing on are:

BlackBerry themes: Custom made by myself, as well as reviews of ones I like/hate. There will be lots of free themes so keep your eye open for the first one (its going to be a Sailor Moon theme).

Jewelry: I make handmade jewelry as a hobby so there is going to be some walkthroughs on how to make your own and some pictures of my own stuff.

Book reviews: Not a lot, but if I read an interesting book I'm going to review it.

In the end this blog will probably cover much more than this. I want a place to talk about the things that interest me but I also want to share my work with others. So please if you want to see something feel free to comment!

Love
