I'm so EXCITED!

I am so flippin excited. let me tell you why!

Eminem (My favorite guy artist) Is coming out with his new book "The Way I am"

Eminem

I don't care what anyone says. His music makes me feel like my life wasn't the only waste of space on this earth. I mean...I would never want to date the guy, but he is still my idol. I care for him....for his music anyway. But still...I cant wait, this book comes out Oct 21st. It has some of his lyrics, autobiography, art, and poetry.

I'm thinking I'll get Josh the Tupac book when I purchase this one so we can both sit on the couch with drinks in hand and read about our idols *screams excitedly*

Next....number two reason why I am exicted. PINK is also coming out with a new CD. I have not pre-ordered it yet due to having to buy 4 new tires, buying school books, and paying tuition took all my money. But next pay check I am buying it. She is my FAVORITE girl artist.

Funhouse

Pink

This is her new CD. the Funhouse. She fucking rocks! (excuse my language)....

EMINEM AND PINK ROCK! Both crazy, both from crappy walks of life...BOTH made it to the top! I will follow in their footsteps one way or another ^_^ Count on it!

I love you both....*muahz*

Oh yeah and Eminem is *suppose* to come out with his last CD called King Mathers...but thats so far a rumor...we will see what happens!

I feel a lot more relaxed now that it's Fall. I usually feel over excited and in a rush during summer time because there is so much to do, and during the winter I feel down in the dumps and tired, yet I feel just exhausted and ready for summer by spring time. But...during the fall I feel calm. Here in Portland, the days are not yet short and the weather jumps between rainy, and sunny, and in betweens. The air smells fresh and the tree's have that really awesome brown, orange, yellow, red thing going on. I'm not yet run down by school, and I wake up feeling good *most days* and I feel pretty good....*knock on wood*

As for school. I have Biology and College Algebra (There is a long story behind why I only have two classes....which is correlated to changing majors...anyway) I was soooo scared to take Biology but I actually find it pretty interesting. As for math...I thought I was pretty good in earlier classes but this one seems far more confusing even though its mostly review with a little extra. Maybe it's because my class set-up. My math class is in a computer lab! Think rows and rows of computers, little desk space...and the instructor in the front of the room writing on the whiteboard which is hidden by computers....It sucks.

I'm still trying to figure out how to promote my little shop. I have had a few sales, but I feel if I could get my shop out there to the right people I could have way more.

I'm still having the worst writers block ever. But a few days ago I had this *epiphany* about a story...it was engulfing my find and making my whole soul feel like it needed to jump out and put thoughts into words. And I always have to have music when I write to help ease those words onto paper. WELL my damned internet was acting up that night...I had no access to my playlist, no access to my livejournal...and I wasn't feeling the Microsoft Word without the music. So those beautiful thoughts that were suppose to break my writers block dissapeared and I lost the mood *sighs*

My Ferret rocks btw....His name is Okii. I got him back in June as a late birthday present from my boyfriend. He is super cute, and super mischivious. He opens his cage at night and escapes to grab his *bitches* => A little blue dog, and a stuffed moose - that he likes to take from room to room with him. (You can always tell where he's been, when he leaves one of his toys in one room the the other in the other room) anyway. Then when we wake up he's back in his cage asleep. Hmmmmmm.

Now the story on how I got Okii. My boyfriend took me to the mall to pick up our bunny food (we no longer have bunny's because we moved and we couldnt bring them *tear*) and he said hey look at these - these meaning ferrets. Well.....I had never been interested in ferrets and didnt really know what they were. But they were cute! Kind of stinky but cute! As I was holding the ferrets he said that he had brought some extra money and said we could go shopping for my birthday present since we couldnt before since we were low on funds....he meant shopping or going to a nice restaraunt but I was hooked on the ferrets.

"I want these!" I said
"These what....." he looked at me
"I want a ferret!"
*Groan* "We have 2 bunnys and a retarded cat....we dont need anymore pets!"
"*Whimper* "Pleeeaaaaaasssseeeeeeeeeee"
I picked up two ferrets that were super cute but I didnt feel a connection. Then I saw him....His head was bigger than the rest of the ferrets, and he had a really big butt. The pet store associate stated that he was a different breed, or just a *black sheep* either way, he looked oddly out of place and super cute like a teddy bear with a long body. I wanted him before I even picked him up! As we walked out of the pet store I said "His name is Okii" which means big in japanese. My boyfriend just smiled. That was the fastest birthday present shopping we have ever done in 3 years! Not to mention...my boyfriend loves him a lot! Okii rocks! Perfect fit to our little family ^_^

And if your wondering...ferrets can stink and do bite...UNLESS you teach them and train them not to bite, then they lick instead of bite AND if you bathe your ferret once every other week then their smell is pretty neutral. They also have a stringy yet course hair, and I am deathly allergic to pet hair BUT I can hold him all day and not sneeze. They are also potty trainable (ours is) and are free to roam *with supervision*. They also like to jump up and down, do back flips and 360's and chase after your feet...and we often take Okii to the park to play with his purple leash *lol* I am now a total ferret lover, I love my cats but dude!...ferrets rock too!

This is my new bag....completely re-done and totally cute. It looks very little like the bag it used to be. I made it sturdier, cuter, and just better.

Everyone has been talking about recycling...and well everything deserves a second chance and this bag surely got one! Re-use anything that can be re-used....re-do it...make it better...and give it a new life!

Vox Pink Bag

This is the FRONT of the bag! It has a gel paint stating WAMPAKU on the front, lined in ribbon, added bows, and a sparkly black star to give it flava! Ohhh and two big bows on the corner!

It looks brand flippin new huh???

Vox Pink Bag2

This is the BACK! I didn't want to neglect it. It has black stars sprinkled through out the back and it sparkles in the sun! The big black stars shimmer too!

Vox Pink Bag

That's just me holding the bag and playing with the light of the camera......hehe it glows :)

These are not the pictures I used on etsy! Check out:

for more pictures of the bag!

I have found myself kind of frustrated with the internet.....recently.

I have been planning this bag that I am making for a fellow blog friend, and she showed me the kind of bag that she wanted me to make but with my *print* on it. And I agreed to everything, ordered the bag and....WA-LA! the bag is totally not what I wanted...maybe a mix in orders? maybe a lazy packer? Hmm I don't know, but I sent it back and I feel like a dumb person because this bag should have been here a week ago, and I should be almost done with it. But...I have not even started!

I'm sorry :(

Good news though. I found a bag that I think will be just as good, if not better. The sizes are 20 X 14 X 5.5 so its a pretty decent sized bag. I already got a lot of my supplies together to and now I am working on my print of my original piece of artwork *Baby Blue Dreams*. It will be beautiful...sassy....trendy...and totally eco-friendly lol. I am excited. I should be getting this new bag here in a few days (It's wed....so I probably wont get it until Monday) But. I am excited! When it comes to working on bags, I am ecstatic! It's not only my hobby or my job....it's my favorite thing to do! *jumps up and down*

Some other good news...I just FINISHED my new bag! Well actually it's not new. I found this bag at a very *interesting* store....we will not name names.... the bag was totally grungy, falling apart, horrible, and in need of some super sexy love! Well I got the bag (the cash register person looking at me with curiosity....) and I gave it a lot of LOVE and OMG its super cute! I have not posted it on etsy yet, but I will. It's Black and Pink (My two fave colors) and I *refurbished* it inside and out. And honestly...everything deserves a second chance. It would be the perfect Make up bag or even a lunch bag (since the inside can be wiped clean!!) You can't even tell it's been *recycled* hehehe.

So now I am sitting here....waiting....doing homework....waiting....studying....waiting......waiting! I can't wait til I get my package! (I think I'm more exicted than the person who wants the bag lol ^_^ ) Anyway, I am going back to waiting!

A Problem with Television...

nobody@vox.com(Naughty - Wampaku) — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 21:38:07 -0700

Okay so I must say I always watch the CW all the time, every week night....religiously. But my boyfriend asked me the other night "Can you even relate to these shows?" and I was like no, that's why I LIKE them. The characters live the lives of rich kids and money surrounded lives and thats what I want!....and he looked at me with this weird, side-ways glance, shrugged his shoulders and went back to his game......it kind of threw me off and made me think.

I do love these shows but then I thought...they are ALL the same! 90210, Privileged, Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill (kind of)...and especially The Hills / Laguna beach....but all of these shows are about teenagers or young adults living life in the fast lane, with money, with power, with a bright future! All of these shows are about the drama between the upper class kids. And...I got mad for a second. How come people don't make a show about living life in the working-class lane? About kids who have to get a job to support their family, have to duck down to escape street gangs, or homeless life? That show would also rock and also give todays teenagers another view on reality and what REAL teenagers these days are facing? Why not follow a young person who lives a life as an at-risk teen, has an *un-loving* family....or poverty ridden parents, while trying to go to community college (or trying to finish high school while trying to get a scholarship...) while supporting their family or trying to stay off the streets because they dont have the money to support themselves.... or hey, what about the life of a foster kid? It's not BAD, its not going to make every kid out there want to join a gang, or have a baby at a young age. It may in fact open teenagers eyes to reality and not fairy-tales. Sorry...I think I rambled on a bit....but anyway the fact is...make something different....

I'm not saying I am going to stop watching these shows...but in the back of my mind I will be thinking of a show that is real, that is powerful, and that is not all about drinking martini's, driving a farrarii, and being able to buy gucci hand bags every day of the year......

Okay now I have good news....

I got my ETSY site up! yayayayayayayayayya whooohoooooo

I've been meaning to get an etsy for a long time but I was too skiddish about my stuff. But since I have this horrible writers block and my novel is put to a hold I decided to expand my business lol

Usually I just sell my stuff every few weekends at the Weekend City market downtown Portland...but business was slow there because people are only out to enjoy the weather during summer and very few are out to BUY GAH! lol so I decided to work on my etsy site....not to mention people keep asking me if I have a site that they can go to to buy stuff later....so now I do! And my loyal customers can no longer use the exucse (I couldnt get ahold of you!) Muahahahhaha

*dances around* I am super excited yo!

Please my blogging friends go check out my stuff

Now my prints of my paintings are not up yet....im tired so i'll post the rest in the next few days (even some of my bags are not posted yet) so keep checking back every few days to see if I added any more stuff okay?

*hugs*

I have started another blog at Wampaku.livejournal.com

No I am not leaving this one. I am trying to find my niche in life and realized that this blog will be good for my "reality" and my new one is basically a place where I can practice writing my stories...you know...become a popular and famous writer....not to mention it is difficult to become *famous* anything on vox.....no offense. Its just a different site. more intimate I guess you could say whereas Live Journal seems to be a little (alot) more popular. hehe

I have not abandoned you...but please. If you are my friend (hint hint) check out my livejournal and my stories. I just started so there are only as few posts. but I have had the worst writing block and I need to get over it ^_^
