Sculpture in progress

Right now I am in sculpture class and we are working on making a piece out of foam. This is an interesting process and makes a huge mess! Definitely learning a lot about design but it is really hard! I can't seem to get it right. Currently I am at a stage where I am trying to perfect the shape and then I can coat it and either paint it or put some type of finish on it. Can't wait to see how it turns out! Work in progress....due next week!!

I'm so excited! I have been needing a new pair of glasses for a while now and have been obsessed with BonLook when one of my favorite styles went on sale today! I could not say no! I cannot wait for them to come in! Trust me I will take many pictures!

Here is a preview...from their website! =)

These are my favorite styles:

Urban Dandy

Honeybadger

Jungle Chic

La Marquise

 Their website lets you "try-on" the frames! I used my webcam for these silly photos. Even though I REALLY wanted a fun pair of glasses I will wait till I order a second pair of glasses for a more fun pair! Yay! =)

What do you think?! Which one is your favorite?

What I am working on now...

This past Christmas I was finally able to upgrade to a new digital camera!!! I have always had an interest in photography but never had the money to buy a better camera. So right now I am focusing on getting better at using my camera and taking more pictures! I still plan on using film, even though it is getting really difficult to develop film, but film has a special place in my heart. 

Fitness wise I am working on FINALLY losing that last 10 lbs to get to my first goal weight. I started my fitness journey about three years ago. I was at my heaviest weight 200 lbs and managed to lose a little over 50 lbs in 6 months by eating healthy and through exercise! Then I got pregnant, gained all the weight back and I have managed to maintain a 40 lb weight loss but still can't get those last 10 lbs! Last year I challenged myself to start running. I was scared to run! I don't know about you but I would start to run and fear that I would I don't know pass out and start to walk haha. So I started January 2012 and my goal was to train for a 5k. I finished that 5k and became hooked! In 2012 I ran three 5k's, one 10k, three mud runs and my goal for the year to run a Ragnar Relay! So for 2013 I want to push myself and see how far I can go.  So far for 2013 I have ran one 5k and another Ragnar Relay!!  Goal for this year...Triathlon! I will start my training soon. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my very first blog! I do hope you check back again! I hope to make new friends and look forward to sharing my adventures through life!
