Quiet Breakfast..

While sitting here with my bowl of breakfast, I wonder, how will I handle having to let go of these cooking shows? Rachael Ray & Giada, You are my way of entertaining myself in the morning.

XOXO.

Homecoming week

Anything special happened since last time?.. A girl from Hamilton High School got in a car wreck and is in a really bad condition. Really bad.. I pray for you and hope you will get well soon Brittaney! And from that comes homecoming week. Brittaney was going to be on the homecoming court but sadly she can't because she's hurt. Homecoming week is where the school dresses up to a certain theme everyday.
Dresscodes for this homecoming week:
Monday: Stoplight (If you are single - you wear green. If you are taken - you wear red. If you're in the "middle", you wear yellow.)
Tuesday: Neon colors.
Wednesday: Pajamas.
Thursday: Hallway theme. (As I'm a senior, I will be wearing African Safari clothes)
Friday: Wacky blue and white. (the school's colors)

Then on Saturday, there will be the homecoming game (basketball) and the homecoming court-people will walk and show off there dress and stuff. Then there will be a voting about who's going to be the homecoming queen and the homecoming princess. Simple as that.
That's it for now.
XOXO

It is time to change

I am sick and tired of doing the same thing over and over again everyday. That includes my hair! Haven't had it cut for several months and I've gotten so lazy that I just put it in a ponytail every morning - why? because I work out after school, and it would just be easier for me if I had it in a ponytail so I'd be ready right after school to work out, rite? Nuh-uh! Lousy excuse. The heck.. I just started working out this week! So today I was at the salon with my family and I was checking out hair-colors and I thought, hey, why don't I just try to dye my hair just to try it - if I don't like it, I can always dye it black again right? So I got home and looked for pictures on google, and that's when i thought - I freakin' love Elena's hair color (Vampire Diaries - Nina Dobrev) so I should totally dye it that color. I then talked to my dad on the phone and asked for permission and luckily he said yes! I am so very excited, although I decided to do it in February after Tet as I am thinking about going to Chicago to visit my aunt and celebrate new years with her and her family. (I REALLY don't want to miss out on celebrating tet!) and I would like to keep my money to shop in Chicago, so yeah.. I started working out cuz I've felt pretty bad about my body lately, and I needed to change that. I am now at 102 pounds. Will update ya with improvements :) I am now on a diet until I am down to my normal weight again and after that I will continue to work out. My bestfriend started working out in a Fitness Center and I want to exercise with her when I get home - Of course I don't want to be a weakling compared to her when I get home :P All those things people think will happen to me after I've been in the U.S. for a year - FORGET IT! I am not going to get fat here! Period!

Also I've chosen to apply to IB AND pre-IB as it isn't certain that there will be an IB-class 2011 after I talked to my sister. She is 22 and just started her education - so I am not afraid that I'll be behind everyone. I will move at my own pace, which means that if I do not like the IB-class, then I will find something else to study. In that case it'll probably be HHX, financing. But who knows, maybe after a year I might change my mind to something way different. It's all about inspiration and learning, and that's what I'm here for - to move forward. To see.

Urg.. I better go to bed, it's way over my bed time!
Here's my latest artwork, I still haven't uploaded my 3d letters. (will do ASAP)
XOXO

Cherry. With an airbrush by me.

Photography

Two days to go, and the 2nd semester will officially begin for the students at Hamilton High School, yup yup. So I thought I should finally upload my photography assignments, or I else I'll never get the time to do it. To make it easier for myself, and for your pleasure too, I will only upload my Grade A pictures (sadly I did not get an A+)
I won't be having a photography-class next semester, as I chose to take another art class, which means MORE ART for me, Yay! Oh yeah, I totally forgot about my art projects. I will take a picture of my work when I get back to school and post it on my blog - my art projects, I mean. Let us save the talking till I'm done uploading, alright..
Here goes..

(7th Assignment - Unusual pictures)

(5th Assignment - Texture Pictures)

(4th Assignment - Water Pictures)

(3rd Assignment - Reflection Pictures)

If I remember right, I haven't posted anything about my recent Chicago trip. I figured I might as well do it while I'm uploading pictures. I woke up just after early to get ready and pack the rest of my stuff - then we headed out to the train station (2 h. drive) because it is ridiculous to drive around in the Chi-town. We got onto the train and arrived at what I call Dinner-time and got ready to go to the Signature Room. If you have not been there (!!if you can not afford to eat there, you should at least go there and get a drink, just to see the view - it is amazing) you should definitely put it on your to-do-list. Such an experience. The food was amazing, and I was lucky to be a "special guest from Denmark" - They brought me a decorated glass with fruit and sorbet and a danish flag. Way to make a girl feel special waiter! wink wink..

We spent the last three days with:
The Blue Man Show (What an experience! Loved it!)
A show for those who loves music and comedy. You will laugh your butt off!
The Willis/Sears Tower.
The highest tower in Chicago where you can stand in a glass box in the air and feel like you are really standing in the air watching the city.
Ed Debevic's
A very casual restaurant. If you are a grumpy person with no humor, I recommend you to stay away from here! Seriously.. If not - You should go there to experience a meal where the waiters and waitresses joke around with everyone!
Gino's East
If you love pizza, you will probably think this is heaven. With their special deep dish-pizzas this place has made my top 10 restaurants while I've been here, and I sure have been to many!
Magnificent Mile
Are you used to walk back and forth on *stroeget Aarhus* and loves to shop? are you craving for more? Magnificent mile will satisfy your craving, baby.
Cheesecake Factory
Do I really need to explain this one?..

I am probably missing some other places, but I will go to Chicago again before summer, so it'll be on the next Chicago-post. Until then, ask yo momma or someone to take u there! You will looooove it.
(My pictures are zoom-able btw. Click on them and you can see it in a bigger size. The Christmas Ball-pic especially needs to be zoomed, or else you can't see what I did to the picture)
