The Prince Has Spoken

And no, not the short one who sings Purple Rain. But we'll get to that in a minute. Due to popular demand, and because there's only thirty days until Christmas, my wish list is as follows (it models my birthday list but with some items added and some taken away)(new items are bolded):

Gift Cards
 Ca$h
 Starbucks
 Costco
 Target

 DVDs
 Bethanny Ever After on DVD (Sold at Target) (I love her!)
The Proposal on DVD (I have watched it every single time it comes on FX!)
 The Lion King on DVD (It just came out in limited Diamond edition!)
Bridesmaids on DVD

 Books
The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide
One year subscription to Self and Glamour for twenty four dollas (they were advertising it on Self.com) (I still have a Real Simple Subscription that I liked so much I renewed it myself!)

 Clothing and Accessories
Lakers Crew Cut Sweatshirt in Ladies XL or Men's L ( I'm guessing this will be easier for the Californians to find as there is no Lakers anything in WA and the sweatshirts online are all hoodies and I want a crew cut one)
OPI "Expresso Holiday Glow" Nail Polish

 Apartment Type Things
Picture Frames (lots, pretty much any kind, especially that can hold a lot of pictures like a collage)
Keep Calm and Shop on Plaque from Target (ten dollas!)
Earring Stand


And now, since this is hopefully the easiest way to broadcast our intentions, below is Andrew's (hence, Prince) Christmas wish list. Not to be confused with mine, but you'll see:
 Gift Cards
Money
Apple
Target
REI (for stuff he uses camping with the boy scouts)
 Xbox live points Walmart GameStop (he preference this store over the others)

 Clothing and Accessories
This or this (these are both hoodies Andrew wants from the WWE store) (Men size M)
A "skater hat with a flat bill" (Andrew's words not mine, except he didn't know the word for bill so he called it a top) Example

ME AS A BEBE

The End :) Questions, Comments, Concerns email or text me!

Peace Up, A Town!

This was my favorite line from one of the best songs on my birthday playlist (21 Again!). When it would come on, I would scream, "Peace up, A-Town! A-Town, that's me!". That should clue you in to how much fun I had during my birthday week. That's right, I said week.

Mean mugs and shoulder shrugs. Another one of my favorite lines from my favorite birthday songs, by Nelly. The other song is Yeah! by Usher. This is my first of two birthday outfits.

You know you are an adult when the night before your 22nd birthday you spend it in a cleaning frenzy, cloroxing and washing and wiping because real live people are going to visit you in your studio apartment. Welcome to officially feeling like your mother, but at least it's not a bad trait to have (cleanliness that is). 

My day started with quite a few lovely texts and facebook messages. Then I went to two classes, in the second one a girl and a guy sang me Happy Birthday, but a hip hop remix version. Such was my day.

I stopped by my mailbox and got a lovely surprise in the mail, chocolate covered strawberries from Lyndsie!

Next I got myself over to Tukwila to the Cheesecake Factory to meet my parents for my birthday dinner! And Andrew of course. I got the Orange Chicken and a strawb lemonade. And I opened all my wonderful and generous gifts from my fantastic family and friends. I am a loved person!

As if I wasn't already going to have a fatty enough day, I also got Godiva chocolate cheesecake AND they brought me a birthday sundae, AND I tasted my mom's tiramisu. Don't worry, I took the cheesecake home to eat later!

As this was a busy day, I jetted off to Costco after I dropped my mom off at home (Andrew, who is too VIP for me now, had varsity basketball practice to attend). I picked my first ever and coveted happybirthdayprincesscake!

I designed this myself!

I brought this beautiful ten pound cake back to my place, and welcomed about twelve of my friends to help me celebrate by singing happy birthday and helping me eat this cake!

Mini Bell Staff Reunion!

My outfit. I basically look like a Kardashian. But I figured you only turn 22 once!

Blowing out my candles!

About half of my friends who came, silly me, forgot to take a picture when everyone was there 

I know it's hard to believe I drink alcohol, and frankly I hardly ever do these days, but this picture is important for a couple of reasons, so let us suspend disbelief for a second: 1) the drink is mango flavored, and I love mango. Granted I think I only drank about three slips before poor Maddy had to finish it but it was delicious. 2) Don't the three of us look cute?!

And since I am all about honesty, I just have to post this picture. Because it defines me in a nutshell. I am ALWAYS giving side eye. 

Then the Thursday after my birthday I went out with five lovely friends to the Elysian for a birthday dinner, and even though the service was kinda terrible I had a fun time! 

So all in all peeps, I had a fantastic birthday week. While I may enjoy prezzies and loves and possibly even attention as much as the next person, the thing I love most about my birthday is that I am constantly reminded through notes and phone calls and the like how much I am loved and how many supportive people I have in my life. You da best!

 Last note, Psych is on and Lassiter is throwing himself a party for winning a case. That is something I would do (throw a party for myself). Carry on.

Oh, fo reals last comment, if there are any comments in the comment section about any of my outfits and/or drinking or calorie consumption, they will be deleted. I'm looking at you, my immediate family! Ya'll know how sassy Andrew can be ;)
