Getting married... Check.

Crissy M. posted an article on - Jun 20, 2011, 9:37 pm
I haven't updated in a very long while. However, I thought now would be as good a time as many to relay my wedding experience to the world. June 16, 2011... Our wedding day. It was gorgeous out with only spots of high wind here and there, which is normal for Colorado Springs. Jake and I were thril...

Perfect Skin: the UPDATE!!!

Crissy M. posted an article on - Jan 27, 2011, 3:34 pm
It has been a LONG time since I posted an update about how my skin was doing after using Perfect Skin. Several months later, I am happy to announce that I am still using Perfect Skin (and my skin feels great)! My face used to be riddled with tiny bumps, and I constantly woke up with a glassy sheet o...

Perfect Skin???

Crissy M. posted an article on - Oct 18, 2010, 2:31 pm
One day a week ago, I was bored out of my mind, so I started flipping channels. There was nothing to watch. I eventually settled into the afternoon infomercials on some channel we don't need in our satellite package. I was watching when the product switched to Perfect Skin, a skin treatment system e...

Do I look like a cab driver to you? How about an ATM?

Crissy M. posted an article on - Oct 6, 2010, 10:27 pm
The first person I met on my own in my apartment community was a neighbor who lives with her mother and son upstairs. She was asking me if I was going to be home or not because a man from X-cel Energy was coming to pick up a check for her electric bill. She offered to leave me her Driver's license t...

The reality of fate

Crissy M. posted an article on - Sep 19, 2010, 5:41 pm
For some reason, I have been going through a weird phase in my life. Despite keeping diligent about searching for work, trying hard to keep strong with my online courses, and keeping the apartment clean and tidy, I'm thinking too much about things I let go. It has been nearly two years since the big...

There's a club in my bedroom.

Crissy M. posted an article on - Aug 22, 2010, 12:35 pm
10:30AM. It's Sunday. On most Sundays, I leisurely sleep in (mostly from a lack of being able to find a job in the whole of Denver).  This is me (pictured above). This morning, however, I am rudely awoken by nothing less than a suburban discotheque next door. After calling the security for the co...

I had the pleasure of attending two Cobber weddings over the past two weeks: Rob & Stacy Jenson and Matt & Hannah Fleming. It surprised me that so many Cobbers were in attendance at these weddings. It shows the deep bond formed from the very first day of Orientation in our beanies, bonds that last f...

Going green... or something.

Crissy M. posted an article on - Jul 4, 2010, 3:45 pm
In my webcomic frenzy of the past three days, I have come across a lot of panels that I think are hilarious. Others, I think... have gotten me to thinking about how green I have become over the past year as a result of my experiences in Rennes, France. Here is one of them: Now, I know it's meant to...

Hawthorne Hill, Here we come.

Crissy M. posted an article on - Jul 1, 2010, 12:08 am
Jake and I have been frantically working on getting approved for our apartment (sans fireplace). We've spent two days now signing paperwork, checking e-mails, writing checks, faxing things back and forth, and asking any last minute questions. We will know by next Monday about our new apartment (and...

Searching for apartments

Crissy M. posted an article on - Jun 24, 2010, 9:01 pm
Having only had one previous experience searching for an apartment, I grossly underestimated how hard it can be when one doesn't have a job. I also realized how difficult it can be to look at and find apartments when the other person (Jake) who is going to live there is about 100 miles away and can'...

We'll always be great friends... Or will we?

Crissy M. posted an article on - May 19, 2010, 10:10 am
After graduating from high school in 2006, I will filled with a lot of emotions. I spent four years in college, graduated at the beginning of May, and am now filled with a different set of emotions. Graduation, for me, was not filled with last memories with friends or late-night celebrating in bars....

To Achieve

Crissy M. posted an article on - Jan 5, 2010, 8:21 pm
No one, I think, goes through life not being pushed to achieve something. The achievement could be as minimal as remembering to turn off the light when leaving a room or knowing when to use a certain word the right way. As we grow older, the achievements grow and become life skills we need to surviv...

What is happiness?

Crissy M. posted an article on - Oct 10, 2009, 8:16 pm
When I was young, being happy had everything to do with I had. I had to have that certain Barbie doll or that pair of jeans. I had to be as thin as those girls and be popular with those boys. I had to be in a relationship with that guy or be on good terms with that girl. Happiness was about as mater...

Driving home around drunk people

Crissy M. posted an article on - Sep 5, 2009, 1:11 am
Typically, I either stay out much later or come home a lot earlier. Today was a special exception because it marked the last of my first two days of school. All of the introductions are done. Monday, we will start putting our noses to the grindstone again. Oh, how I will love Behavioral Neuroscience...

Woke up to a domestic dispute

Crissy M. posted an article on - Aug 25, 2009, 3:43 am
At around 3 AM, I woke up to a domestic dispute. When I first started waking up and becoming conscious, I thought it was a kid and some other kid messing around outside. Then, I decided it was a parent and their child or someone else's child. After the person screaming started to sound like a wo...

Romantic Not-So-Comedies

I sat down today in front of my computer after work. I spent time on Facebook, cehcked my email accounts, did some homework, ate dinner, and played Guild Wars. After that, I received a call from Asha asking how I was and what I was up to. It was completely unexpected, but nice considering my recent ...

The airport

Crissy M. posted an article on - Aug 18, 2009, 7:38 am
I have never been on the dropping off and leaving side of airports. I have always been on the "see you later" and the "I'll be home soon" side of things. I guess I never realized how hard it is to take someone you love to the airport when you know you won't be seeing them in a week after vac...

The Best Things Are Hard to Wait For

Crissy M. posted an article on - Aug 10, 2009, 11:59 pm
I am an openly stubborn individual, even though I try my hardest not to be. I want things, and I want them now. I'm usually not a complainer or a whiner, but why, when I want something this badly, do I actually have to wait? It isn't so much the thing itself, it's the knowing that I want...
