PICS
My Birthday is this weekend!!! I'm turning 22! YAY!
I even got the day off from all my jobs. I plan on going out to celebrate with my friends on Saturday night and having family dinner on my actual birthday; Sunday.
Just in case you're curious, I updated this.
I have a crappy cold right now but I've been taking medicine non-stop since day one. I got really lucky yesterday and got both jobs off due to the weather causing business to be slow.
I'm really excited to get to spend this thanksgiving with my family, something I didn't get to do last year. I'm looking forward to it!
What is everyone doing for Turkey day?!

Quick update:
I haven't been able to post any new blogs lately since my laptop was stolen while visiting my brother in Arizona. It doesn't look like I'll be getting a new one anytime soon either.
I'm using the computer at my work (shh! I'm not suppose to!) to post this blog so it'll probably be the only blog update for the next month or so until I figure out another way to update.
I picked up a third job as well as got a promotion at the chocolate factory. I'm now the assistant manager at the chocolate shop and working in a clothing store called Found Underground. I'm pretty excited about the changes and a little unsure of how long I'll be able to take on the sixty-hour work weeks, especially with the holiday season coming up. Eeek!
I'm still working at the other job, the pizza restaurant. I was only getting a couple shifts a week for a while but the other hostess switched over to serving so now I'm the main hostess which means five shifts a week. It's a lot of work but I really need it.
Other than that stuff...I'm trying to setup a date with K2 to shoot a set. I really want to do some kind of fall set but if we don't plan it quick, it's going to get too cold to shoot outside.
Also, I know it's a little early but....I just moved into my apartment last month and my birthday is coming up next month so I updated my Wishlist
I dyed my hair red, thought it would be a nice touch for autumn.

I'm doing BIG THINGS SG!!!
Last week I:
Got a car!
I got a cute little red Saturn SC2. Nothing too fancy but I love it to bits! Bought it at a used dealer. They were asking for $4500, talked them down to $2300. Woot woot.
Yesterday I:
Got an apartment!
I'm moving in with an old friend from middle school. She's a student and I work full-time so we probably won't be home around the same time very often but when we are, fun times are going to be had! I've never had my own place so I'm really excited to see how it goes!
Today I am:
In Arizona with my Brother!
My brother is being shipped out to Afghanistan next month for 4-6 months which means he won't be around for my birthday, thanksgiving, his birthday, christmas, or new years eve.
So he flew me out to Tucson where he is currently stationed to hang out with him before he leaves.
Tonight we are going to see Jimmy Eat World play and it's going to be EPIC!

Dear SGland:
*MWAH* Kisses.
Sorry I haven't been blogging lately. My laptop's power cord shit out on me and I had to mail order another one. I just got it in the mail today. YAY!
I'm moving into a house this month.
I'm buying a car this month.
Big things are happening.
Visiting brother in Arizona at the end of the month. Excited. Miss him to pieces.
I would love to go dancing right now.
Might have to make that happen.
I AM HAPPY.
xoxo

Oh look!
Customized Scott Pilgrim vs. the World avatar. NEAT-O!
I wish I was in Arizona at Hell City right now. DAMN YOU WORK!
Gotta pay the bill somehow.
I drink beer now.
I use to hate beer and only drank hard liquor but lately I've acquired a taste for delicious beer. Mmmm....beer.
One day I'll do a real blog with real information that is more interesting to read.

Been meeting awesome people. Made new friends.

I started a new job!! I'm really excited about it. I was already working two jobs before, one at a local pizza shop I worked at in High School, and the other at a chocolate shop. Both jobs were giving me less than 20 hours a week and I was making minimum pay so I desperately needed to find something better. AND I DID!!!!
For a little while I was working all three jobs and that was too much so I had to decide which job to quit. I didn't want to quit the pizza shop because I love all the people I work with there and the pay is a little better than the chocolate shop, however, the chocolate shop can give me day shifts whereas the pizza shop would only be able to give me night shifts, which is all my new job is giving me as well.
I put my two weeks in at the pizza shop and I'm still at the chocolate shop.
My new job is pretty cool! It's a new restaurant that is opening TOMORROW to the public. It's very exciting. I'm starting as a hostess and possibly training to be a server after a while.
Today is our first soft run, which means we'll be open to our friends and families only, but we're still anticipating a big day. Wish me luck!!
I really want to shoot a new set! I need to have a day or two off work one of these weeks so I can plan something! I don't know what kind of set I would shoot though. That's the problem with SG right now, the set ideas are either too overdone and boring or too elaborate and confusing. Any ideas??
I am planning on driving to Chicago the weekend of August 13. I would like to shoot a set while I'm there but not sure if I'll have a lot of time. I feel like the whole weekend is pretty much all planned out with little time to spare. Hopefully, that's not the case.
My brother came to visit for a few weeks this month. He's in the air force and has been stationed in Arizona for a couple years now. He leaves for Afghanistan in October for a few months so I won't be able to see him for Christmas this year.
I love when he comes to visit but I fear he might have a "party" problem. Haha. I understand that he's on vacation and just wants to have fun, but when you're working multiple jobs and trying to keep up with the fun, it gets really exhausting!!! I don't think I want to drink that much for a while now....
I'm thinking about looking into joining the air force towards the end of the year. I'm not sure they'd even consider accepting me but if they did, it might be something really good for me. It's not something that is for me, in my opinion, but I feel it could really help me out. I'm in a bit of a catch-22 right now in life. I went to college for two years right after high school, wasn't ready for it, and totally blew it. Now I owe the state a ton of money in student loans and tuition that I can't pay off because I can't get a high paying job without some kind of education in that field.
So joining has been something I've been talking to my brother about a lot lately and he also agrees it could be really good for me. I'm going to keep thinking on it a while longer and see what I want to do by the end of the year.
I finally made a Facebook for SG. Add Me.
I haven't been very active on it so far but I plan on doing more with it!
I've been listening to a ton of good music lately. Here are some songs that make me happy!

Hello SG land!
I recently joined a new kind of "social networking" site, it's basically a cam site setup differently than most. Everyone should go check out my page HERE and sign up for a free account, it just takes a couple seconds to fill out your sn and password with an e-mail and you'll be helping me out as well!
It's actually pretty neat! I can do daily blogs for everyone to see, just like on here, and load up pictures as well as videos. Sweet deal!
How was everyone's 4th?! I didn't do anything too special, just hung out at my aunt's house.
My uncle made the craziest food concoction ever! I thought I was in heaven it was soo delicious! I can't even tell you what all was in it but it was basically a huge piece of juicy steak wrapped up into a tube shape and filled with a mixture of cheese, veggies, and spices. They called it an alien meat tube. Ahaha! SOO GOOD!
We made some special margaritas to sip while sitting on the patio:
'Special Margs':
-Mix a pitcher of Limeade and light beer.
-Line rim of pint glass with a lime, dip in salt.
-Fill glass with ice.
-Pour 2 shots tequila in pint glass.
-One shot Triple-sec.
-Top off with mixed Limeade.
-Add lime.
-Enjoy!
I wanted to say a quick THANK YOU to everyone who read my last blog and helped out with allowing me to be able to go to Global Dance Fest!!!
I'm super excited about it! Counting down the days! Even already requested it off work! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer! Mine is going by WAY too fast! I want it to last FOREVER!!
What has everyone been up to? What big plans do you all have for your summer adventures?! Let me hear about it!
Until next blog....
xoxo

The Global Dance Festival is quickly approaching along with my sad realization that I will probably not be able to go.
All my friends will be going and I planned on going, that was until all my work hours were cut due to new summer hires and the fact that tickets are $70!!!!!
In case you aren't familiar with Global or want to know more about it:
Global Dance Festival 2010: Red Rocks
It's only going to be the MOST epic time ever!
So if anyone wants to help a girl out, I'm selling prints to raise some money to try to go dance! I will you forever!
If you are interested, just message me on here with the image # and the name of the set it's from.
My paypal is Shyla.suicide@live.com
Also, if you haven't seen this yet, check it out!
I'm still really excited about it!

Hello SG land!!!!
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer so far! I know I am!!
After being spoiled with a couple trips, nearly back to back, to the wonderful Los Angeles, I came back to Colorado and got spoiled in Denver!!
Last Saturday was EDC (Electric Daisy Carnival), my friend had bought an extra ticket and let me use it to go with him! It was so much fun! I had never been to rave before, or even anything like it so it was all new to me!
I only had heard of one DJ that was there which was Benny Benassi but I enjoyed all the other DJ's just as much!
I spent some time doing my hair all curly for the night just to have it go immediately flat in the rain!! I looked like a soggy mouse by the end of the night!
I have a couple pictures documenting the epic night...I look more and more "effed" up as the night progressed

On Wednesday, I went to the Denver Art Museum with my friend Dylan and Oui. I didn't take as many pictures as I should have but I have a couple cute ones I took with my phone.
I ate a couple "special" cookies before going in and it only made the museum more epic than it already is. Hehe.
Last but SURELY not least!!!!
Mike sent me a copy of the test shoot we did while I was in Los Angeles a few weeks ago shooting with Sean and Reagan.
It's really weird to see myself in video but so exciting!! I feel like you can get a better idea of my personality just from the few minutes of the video as opposed to looking at my sets..
Hope you enjoy it!!!!!
Until next time SG! <333
