December 26, 2006Clothing for a CauseSo, I have this fashion blog called Pink Rock Candy, and i wrote about how the t-shirt company Threadless is raising money for a sick baby. I know a lot of people don't read my blog so I'm putting it here so I can get more people to help out: One of my favorite t-shirt companies, Threadless, is having a charity auction for record engineer J. Robbins' 10-month old son, Callum. Callum was diagnosed with Type 1 Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). SMA is a horrible disease that affects how the brain communicates with the voluntary muscles. This affects crawling, walking, head and neck control, and even swallowing and breathing. I don't have to say how serious this disease is and how terrible it must be for Callum and his parents and family. Threadless is auctioning off limited edition "Santa in the Attic" t-shirts: 5 men's small tees, 2 girl's small, 5 girl's medium, and 3 girl's large tees. All the proceeds will go to Callum's medical bills. Bid Here! The band Motion City Soundtrack is also releasing a holiday shirt and poster to help out Callum. Buy one here! For more information on Callum and the cause or to make a donation, go here... p.s. Callum is so cute, and the shirts aren't that expensive. The Motion City shirts are $16ish, but I hope the auctioned off Threadless shirts sell for a lot. Thanks for your time Buzznet, it'll be great if you could help.

December 6, 2006Revamping My Life?
Why is it I never know what I want. I think i do, but I always end up changing my mind. I cant just be happy. I'm not depressed, I'm just content. Content is never enough and I want pure elation. Elation may only be found in fairy tails. Here's the thing. For the last maybe 10 years I have known I wanted to be a marine biologist. I thought that is the end all be all of careers and I haven't strayed from that until now. Now, I have no idea. If I become a marine biologist I feel ike I might just be content, and from watching others who are just content with their jobs, I don't want that. I want to love everyday of my job. I'm so interested in fashion and oddly celebrity whatever. I feel like for the last 10 years I have had school and cheer or just school to think about. Now that I have more time, I have become interested in so many different things. I just want to be able to try things and see if I will like them, but in my house that isn't an option. I need to know what I want and be working toward that. I know this, and it isn't because my parents don't want me to be happy, they just don't have the money to support my indecisiveness. I haven't even told them that I'm thinking of changing my major and maybe even switching colleges. My dad would support me through anything, I mean he drove and hour and a half to help me change a tire, but my mom... She wants me to go into something practical where i can make money and be successful and she won't have to worry. I don't want her to worry, I just want to be creative. After years of having at least 2 science courses each year I'm bored with it and honestly it doesn't really interest me. I just did it because of my love for the ocean and the beauty of fish. I recently decided I wanted to work warped over the summer, and even though I know I have zero experience, I have spent more time researching ways to get to help out with warped, than I spent the entire time I was looking for colleges that had a marine biology program. I haven't even started looking for internships at aquariums or what not. I'm not as driven to do those things as I am to ask what an internship in event planning entails and what I would need to get the internship. I want everything else more than I want what I have always wanted. I don't know if that makes sense. I just know how I feel. I wish I was amazing at one thing. It would make things so much easier. Everyone thinks I'm lucky because I'm good at everything I do, but it sucks. I want to have one skill that will help me stand out amongst the rest. I hate being part of the crowd. Maybe I should just talk about myself for the rest of my life, I seem to be pretty good at that. This us just me venting my thoughts. If anyone happens to read this, I'd love input.
