something new

Hello Bloggers!
I've decided to try something new on this post today! I'm going to post some pictures of my favorite penguin items! I know it's probably been done on this site before but not by myself. So I figured I'd try it! Enjoy!

This is an adorable penguin pillow with a built in speaker! It has a nifty cord on the back that attaches to any ipod, mp3, or mp4 player! It's soft fabric allows you to fall asleep listening to your favorite music!

This is an AM/FM penguin radio that is capable of reaching as many stations as a standard radio! The speaker volume is adjustable with the use of the handy volume turner! Listen to your favorite stations on the go!

 

Got a brush? This little guy is an automatic penguin lint remover with an attachable lint remover brush! It not only brushes away lint and hair, it blows it away!

What's that sound? These are heavy duty plastic refrigerator containers! They sit inside the refrigerator and make a loud sound when the refrigerator door is cracked or open for too long! The penguin one is my favorite, of course!

Who doesn't like waffles? This cute penguin loves waffles but he's nice enough to bring fresh waffles to your plate! The waffles are even shaped like a penguin!

This is a fun and adorable penguin botany chamber with a special light that allows plants to grow inside! The light settings are adjustable to accommodate the growth conditions of any plant! 

  

Surfs up with this entertaining penguin desk toy! It features two penguins surfing in their fictional, aquatic environment!

These are tiny creatures called mopods! They are little animals that spin around and make sounds when a cell phone rings! With them, you'll never miss a call again!

It's cold outside but you'll stay warm with this cute penguin mug warmer! It has a  usb attachment that allows you to warm up your coffee or hot coca where ever your computer is!

Can I fix you a drink? This little cutie is a penguin drink mixer/ drink cooler! Just apply ice in one end and your favorite drink or drinks in one end then shake it!

Water dispensers have never been so cute! This penguin dispenser is light weight so it's easy to carry it from one room to the next! You can even use it outdoors!

Its time to go into the future with this little guy! It's a penguin robot and he would just love to keep you company! He enjoys rolling around, making cute sounds, and using his lights to see in the dark!

Hello, can you hear me? This is a penguin telephone! Call all of your loved ones with this little creature! Just dial the number you want and speak into the back of the telephone! It is available in pink, blue, black, purple, and green!

Zap! Watch out for this cute penguin bug zapper! He's people and animal friendly but he'll get rid of the flies and mosquitoes around your front door!

Whose up for some ping pong? Get this little penguin and you and your friends can have a virtual game of table tennis! The convenient sensors on the paddles and penguin sync up to take place of that pesky ball!

Go where no man has gone before with this navigator penguin! Advanced technology allows him to go into the depths of many seas and oceans to explore aquatic life! With a built in camera, you can see through the eyes of a penguin!

What does a penguin think about? You can find out with this touchscreen penguin computer! Use your fingers to choose options on this penguin's belly! Once you've chosen, he'll even say what you've typed!

Don't break the bank! These cute penguins will collect and count your change and then dispense them once they are done! Make sure you feed them regularly so you can see them dance!

You've probably seen this famous penguin on television! He's the new penguin robot that moves just like a real penguin! Not only can he navigate in the water, he can fly!

These are just a few of my all time favorite penguin creations! There are many more out there and I'll post them all in due time. Until then, I hope you've enjoyed looking at all of the inventions out there for penguin and technology lovers alike. Sadly, as much as I love penguins, I'd have to avoid purchasing the more expensive penguin electronics. It pains me to part with penguin items that I want but it pains me more to part with money that I need. Lol. Anyways, if anyone else spots some interesting penguin technology or anything interesting or penguin related then feel free to post some here! I know it's a needle in a haystack to think that people take enough time to not only read my posts, but respond to them. But hey, someones bound to find that needle and if it's me, I hope I have my safety gloves on! Well, I'm logging off now to spend time with my awesome and ill fiance but I wish you all a good morning/night depending on your time zone. I'll Type to all of you later!!! ^_^

how i've changed

Hello again!
As I promised, I'm here to post another blog. I know, exciting right? Well I'm about to go to bed but I thought I'd sit up and update my profile. It needed to be completely redone but I decided to stick with what I have. I did change my background which took some serious Internet searching to find one I liked. I'm not thrilled about the tiling factor but I do like the overall look of the design. I'll probably change it again though. Other than that, I updated my old pictures. The ones I had were from 2009-2010 so I needed to change those. Since I took those pictures, I had a haircut and I have managed to keep it short. I prefer it the way it is now because its easier to manage. I don't style my hair except for what I can pull back into a pony tail or pig tails. As far as style, I ditched the "sporty comfort" style, so to say. I now wear long, dressy shirts and sweater dresses over jeans. I try to buy shirts that don't have logos or childish patterns on them. Not that anything is wrong with advertising expensive brand names or wearing "emo, punk" patterns. It's just that I'm almost 23 and to be honest, some styles are meant to be left in high school. So other than that, my fashion style hasn't changed much. Besides fashion, of course I watch a lot of television and tons of movies. Since I work mostly nights, there really isn't anything to do besides watch television or sleep in on work days. I watch the same shows as listed on my profile. Except for a few new shows that have caught my attention, thank you Joseph. For instance, I recently started watching TrueBlood and I really like it. I also like watching Dexter, How I Met Your Mother, Modern Family, The Ricky Gervais Show, and a few others that my darling fiance watches. Which to be honest, again, he watches almost anything and he can quote or paraphrase most of what he watches. My movie interests are the same as they were in 2009 except now I can watch ones with actors/actresses I don't favor. As far as music, I have begun to listen to music genres I really didn't pay attention to before. For example, I listen to 94.1, 99.7, and 97.9 on my way to work when I'd use to just listen to 96.1. The stations I listen to now have techno/dance, pop/rock, and r&b artists that I've began to favor. Lady Gaga, Taio Cruz, Bruno Mars, BoB,Ke$ha, Rihanna, and Katy Perry are a few artists I listen to now. Overall, I can say that I've opened up my interests to more than just horror and rock genres. I'm definitely more open minded when is comes to the people I interact with as well. Before, I wouldn't allow myself to be in the company of people who smoked cigarettes or who drank alcohol. Since I met my fiance, I've learned to be more accepting of people who do things I wouldn't do. He has really taught me to look past the differences between someone else and myself. This has allowed me to be more tolerable and understanding about the decisions other people make. Which in turn, made me less paranoid about being around people who I thought were negative influences. I'd say, with confidence, that meeting Joseph was one of the greatest things that has ever happened to me. He has made a major contribution into making me a better person. Now, I have to give credit to God and his righteous son Jesus for being my main support and motivation through life. Without religion, I'm sure I wouldn't have the strength to overcome obstacles or the determination to keep moving on a positive path. But that's a conversation for another post, if it becomes a topic at all. Well it's getting pretty early in the morning and I should try to get some rest. Sadly, I'm not very tired so it could take 30 minutes for sleepiness to take over my eyelids. Anyways, I'm going to log off the magical Internet and go to bed. Where my loving and adoring fiance is passed out from cough medicine. Unfortunately, my love has caught a cold and hasn't felt well for the past four days. On the same note, my caring and understanding mother is also under the weather, so to say. Later on today Joseph and I will have to drive about 45 minutes to see her. I also have to get my work schedule and pay check on the way there. So at least I'll have some outdoor air in my lungs on my day off. Well I must not break my promise to my brain to give it some well deserved time off. I'll be back to post another blog again soon so don't get too bummed out. Lol. I wish all you blogger people out there a good night/morning!

oh me oh my

Hello, Bloggers! I'm back and to be honest, I forgot I had an account on this site for a while. Not that I don't like blogging and interacting with all of the people that might be reading my posts. Lol. I like to keep a level head about things so I don't get an ego the size of the Grand Canyon. Anyways, I've been up to some things since I last posted. Which was longer ago than I had previously thought. So OK I last left off with me getting a job which I still have. Thank you God. I'm still in a relationship with Joseph. I know it's about time I kept one, right. Lol. So yeah recently we got ENGAGED! I use all caps because it's a big stepping stone in a person's life and I chose to add this one to my path with him. I found an amazing guy and I'm psyched that I get to call him mine. Anyways, I'm having the mid life work blues. It's not really mid life but it feels like it some times. I'm at the point of trying to find another job, like many people these days. I'm not all gloomy about working where I do but I'm not doing cartwheels either. Not that I know how to do a cartwheel but anyways. Other than that. I have decided to return to the books and get a degree in Biology. It's not a complete 180 from Forensic Science but it will take me longer to get a degree than I had planned. I'm not gloomy about that fact either. I feel blessed to have the chance at a college education let alone have the motivation to keep seeking knowledge. With my degree, I want to become a microbiologist which is one who studies tiny living things. For example, if you get a cold then you get sick. That's not all there is though. Something causes that cold as with any illness. So I'll be studying the causes of illnesses whether they be bacteria, virus, or fungi. I'm totally excited about this turn of education and I know it will open up more doors for my career. Anyways, it's getting somewhat late and I'm hungry/tired. So I'll end this post with a promise to post again, as well as, a thank you and goodnight.

return of the blog

Hey Bloggers! It's been a while since I last posted a blog on this site. I figured I should try to post something every once in a while or just forget about the site all together. Well, I suppose a good place to start a blog is with what I've been up to lately. I have been working a good bit. I don't know if I've previously mentioned that I have a job or not. Anyways, I've been working since the week before Thanksgiving of last year. I work part time in the deli department at Kroger. It's an alright job to have so I can't say to many negative things about it. Other than working, I have been hanging out with my new boyfriend named Joseph. I know what you're thinking. The last post involved a different guy and I bet you can guess that we broke up. It wasn't meant to be because our personalities clashed so we both went our separate ways. We haven't talked in a couple of months but it's not like we were friends so it's alright. After him, I did date another guy named Stephen but you can guess that it ended as well. It also wasn't meant to be because we both found out things about each other that we didn't favor. So we tried being friends but I chose to end the friendship. It wasn't something that I wanted to do but it just wasn't working out. Anyways, I'm not a boyfriend hopper and I don't need to be in a relationship to be complete or happy. However, I am with Joseph and I really do like him. I think that I have found a great guy and I want to keep him as long as I can. So other than working and dating, I have been living life as one can assume. I've grown up and changed a lot since my last post. I've learned some new things in a short period of time. I won't go into details or specifics but I can say that I don't have any regrets. I know that I'm on the right path and that I will continue to follow it until I reach my final destination also known as Heaven. I don't really have anything else to add to this blog so I guess I'll make it a short one. I'll end this blog with a thanks and a promise to blog again soon. ^_^ Have a great day all.

life goes on

Hello Bloggers, I know I haven't blogged in a while and I said the next time that I would I'd post a story. Well, I'd have to retype and format 10 pages so it will take some time. Well my life has changed a lot since the last post. I recently got a job and it's going really well. I had a fantastic Thanksgiving with my family and it made me very thankful for all of the positive people I have in my life. Anyways in less important but still relevant news, my ex broke up with me and I went through a tough time. Good thing I had my family to help talk me through it and give me some really great advice. Life goes on. I think that's very true now. I also had God and I knew I had to pull myself up and get over it. Back to life and relationships, I've met a guy named Edward and he's great. I know I wasn't single for long when I officially began a relationship with this guy. However, we had the best conversation over the phone and we stayed up really late just talking, like 9 am. We have a lot to talk about and we enjoy each other's company which is the foundation for any relationship. So we decided to become official and it's been going really great. Anyways, Christmas is around the holiday corner and I'm hoping to see some sign of snow or even snow itself. I know the spirit of Christmas began before Halloween but now it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas just like in the song. So anyways, Happy belated Thanksgiving and I'll be back to blog again. Until then, I'll leave you all with this saying "if you can't see the bright side of life, polish the dull side."

it's a hard blog life

Recently, I've been looking at other people's blogs to help me see what fellow bloggers look for in a blog page. I've noticed that most of them are people who sell items that they have made. Some even share there drawings, photographs, and poems with others. Even though my blog doesn't have all of those creative aspects, my blog has something that most others blogs don't: stories about my life. Now I'm not saying that people should flock to my blog to read about my life but everyone likes to know that someone out there visits their site. I'm not the kind of person who follows a lot of blogs and tells others to follow mine but it seems like this is the best kind of advertisement for this site. It's difficult for me to blog because there is only so much I have to blog about or would reveal to the public. I have thought about sharing some of my stories and poems with others on the site. I can even say I've thought about posting some of my songs I wrote a while ago. The problem with this is that I'm my biggest critic and I happen to think I'm not very creative. I can't draw or write or design things which is fine with me because it's not what I choose to do. Although, I would like to be able to sew and create these unique items that I wish I'd see in stores. Sadly, I'm not a homemaker which is what the sterotypical image of women use to be. I can't cook or sew but I can clean rather well when I take the time to. The only thing I've sewn right are those little dot to dot pictures my elementary class would connect with string on the holidays. I can't cook from scratch but I can follow detailed instructions for cooking meals. Anyways, the point of this blog is make others aware that I know I don't have much to look at on my blog. I know that people out there would much rather read about fictional stories than real life experiences when it comes to blogs. Unless someone lives a really exciting life, others really don't want to read about the daily activities of a regular person. For the sake of my blog, I will try something different and see if that gets the attention of others. I will post a story that I had to write for an English class. If people like the semi-creative side instead of the regular opinionated side, then I will post more creative things in the future. The story will be on the next post I make. I hope this will let me know what I can offer to the blogging community. Thanks for your time.

lazy days ahead

Hello Bloggers! I haven't posted in a while but I've returned to update those who visit my blog. I just finished my second year of college and I'm waiting for my grades. I don't have much to worry about because I know that I passed my classes and will be receiving my Associates Degree document soon! I'm excited that I get a break from books for a while. I'm also somewhat sad that the experience is over because I've gotten use to the whole college environment. After much thought, I've decided to apply to other colleges to make an attempt a Bachelor's Degree in the Fall of 2010. 2010 seems far away but 3 months isn't enough time to get my paper work in order so it's obvious that I should wait. In the meantime, I'm just going to play the 'Waiting Game' until I get my transcripts which is in about a week. After I receive my paperwork, I'm going to start the transfer process and try to get a job. Even though I don't want to work right now, I think a job will give me something to do until August of 2010. I'm probably going to apply for a job at a couple of places near my house. I want to cut down the commute as much as possible since I'll only be part-time. I also had my braces removed from my teeth after wearing them for 2 and a half years. I'm not totally excited about it because I have retainer to clean for the next 2 years. Anyways, I'm a little tired from pushing myself to get things completed on time so I'm not looking forward to cleaning. I'm going to end this blog with a quote by my favorite president, Theodore Roosevelt: "Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing."
