Miso Soup!

Now, I'm not saying miso soup is delicious, but... it is.

I usually keep a few packets of miso soup mix in my pantry because they are so nutritious and delicious. Miso Soup is a very popular dish in Japan. Especially in chibi's, just saying. My particular blend is made of tofu cubes, seaweed slices and celery, in the normal miso paste blend. I sometimes refer to it is the vegetarian option to chicken noodle soup. Meaning, it really helps when you feel sick (I don't today). If you've never tried it before, please do. And leave a comment telling me!

Saint Patrick and his day.

As you know I am full Irish, so this is a big holiday to me. It's one of my favorites when celebrated right.

When celebrated in Ireland, there is a huge feast, sort of like Thanksgiving here. Usually during this season alcohol is prohibited so that farmers can work sober, but on this day they lift the prohibition. This may be why the standard celebration in America is all drinking. The color green is an international (even in Ireland) celebration for St. Patrick.
Who is St. Patrick? Well according to historians, he was an Irish slave kidnapped from Britain. He fled from his slavery and returned to Britain to become a priest. Years later he returned to Ireland and brought with him Christianity and the English Language. It is said that he explained Christianity through shamrock found in Ireland. This is why the shamrock is worn during St. Patrick's Day.

I'm not going to get into the political reasons for St. Patrick's Day, just know there are two sides to every decision.

Anyway, thanks for learning about St. Patrick's Day. Please comment and tell me how you celebrated it! I would love to know!

Spring Break!

Drac and I are on Spring break. It's fun and all. Just REALLY boring for me. I'm stuck at home right now. And I forgot that all my friends are still in high school and they don't have break right now. Anyway, if anyone shows interest tomorrow I'll go around taking pictures of my hometown and with some of my friends. Be sure to comment and tell me. Otherwise, I'll be posting my magic card alter update posts!

Allergies!

I swear my allergies will be the death of me. I woke up at 2 AM not being able to breath at all. When I went back to sleep, I slept for so long that I missed BOTH of my classes today. Today was the first time I've EVER missed my class..this semester anyway. To put things simple.. I've had a bad day.

Does anyone else out there have bad days? Let me know how you deal with them.

Fire Hydrants Make Me Hot

Today, I had to do a crazy photography adventure. I had to find anything and EVERYTHING red and take pictures of it. It was funny because I had a group of people following me in the process. Did you know there are about 20 hydrants on every campus? Around the 6th hydrant, the group was convinced I had a thing for fire hydrants. Which I DONT! It just so happens that they are the only thing that is extremely red thing on campus!

Anyway to get to the point, I had to take 20 pictures for my most recent project in my graphic design class. So there was a reason for this madness. When the final project is done I will post a few pictures of it. Until then...

FIRST TIME EVER!! (image at the bottom)

Okay so I have an extremely hard design teacher. He usually HATES all my designs, but today for the first time ever he LOVED my design! I almost lost my mind from excitement of that. He probably only likes my design because of my pitch.
