Tomorrow is an eclipse that will be fun! :yay::yay:
I don't have any so I have to improvise with welding goggles. Lol.
We can't go on the whale watching tour tomorrow because my husband is going to have to work. But I'll put the NASA eclipse on for the kids while we wait for him to get home.
I passed my Science test with 73%!! :yay: :yay: :yay:
I'm starting community college tomorrow so I walked around campus a bit today and discovered they were giving out free airbrushed backpacks! So naturally...

I'm so happy!
Introducing my new baby!
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...54d32847af.jpg
Her name is Annabelle and she is a syrian hamster from the petsmart by my work. My parents said no to getting any pets until after our dog dies, but I rebelled and got her anyway. My mom was super pissed and my dad was super annoyed, he didn't start yelling until he learned I overdrew my bank account by a couple dollars. But he got over it and this morning got the hamster supplies from the previous hamsters we had when I was little down from the attic. The stuff needs to be cleaned and sanitized still which I'll do a bit later because it's 109° right now. I'm also excited because I'm taking a ceramic class as a fun college class this semester and I brought home some clay to make a bunch of little hamster food bowls.

Aww that's so cute! I have a dumbo rat named Annabelle (her sister is Penelope) and besides them being a different species they look slightly similar! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a14d2576f8.jpg

I just got a wicked deal on a GoPro! Almost brand new for 270 dollars with a craptonne of accesories! And everything is working out for me to bring it to the meetup I'm hosting today for my cute Christian coworker to help me film it! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f6cf7f6f1e.jpg

So you guys probably didn't notice, but I haven't been really active the last few weeks. Lol. And that's because we were in a bidding war for a house and... we WON!!!! :D So I've been really busy working with the realtor and all the inspectors.
So many inspectors! :gah: Lol.
I'm so excited this will be our first time buying a house. Now all we have to do is wait for everyone else to do their job and report back. Some down time Yey! Lol Super excited. :cheerleader:
Please tell me your secrets! I really want to invest in one because the videos are so clear and saturated but $400 is not in my price range

I got. GoPro HERO4 Session for my 16th birthday last year :) it's a wonderful, versatile camera that doesn't need a waterproof housing :)

I used an app callee LetGo to find it. Less sketchy than craigslist as you have to be verified with a google account to use it. I also got really lucky with this one.

So i just landed a go pro hero 4 silver edition for $120!! Sadly it only came with the underwater housing and that's it still I'll have to buy a suction mount, charger, and any other attachments i want but that's still a good deal since i was looking at used ones that cost $200+ with nothing but the camera

I got it from a used book store here! I was looking for a game cube actually and noticed in the back the go pro. (Sadly they didn't have any game cubes :( )

They are here too but this particular store had one for sale a bit ago for $15 and i was hoping that one was still on sale because it was pink and glittered 😢😢

More good news! I finally have a free weekend to go swimming! Usually i work every single weekend and refuse to take off because lets just say i pay $700/month in rent.... So my boss finally told me to take a break (which I'm getting paid for thank god) now if only i could figure out how to set up my go pro in the lap lanes when it's a super deep pool

A cheap tripod works perfectly for me and since it's so inexpensive, I'm really not worried about ruining it.
I'm actually really happy that I'm not a mod for the BST tails group on Facebook
it means I don't have to deal with a certain bully's bullshit
Here is my mom fixing the drawing of the fluke for my silicone tail I’ll be making! We decided to make it smaller. My dad also offered to buy me two of those big hard plastic folding tables so I can sculpt my fluke out in the garage and not have to sculpt on the floor and hurt my knees and back.

I got my first car! This is kind of a big deal for me coming from a very financially insecure background and failing my license 5 times before passing. I have a job interview tomorrow for a possible full time position for a live Audio Visual company that's downtown so its a good thing I finally have a car! Shes a pretty average car, a 2000 honda civic but I'm very excited - especially as its purple! If all goes well, I won't have to be teaching swimming lessons as much and getting more into the field of my dreams!

Well a few good things have been happening on my end lately, mostly to do with business startup stuff and some really wonderful reactions I got on monday at the pool when a few different families saw my mermaid tail :D they were so sweet!
But today while I've been struggling to work on doing research for business stuff, my mum came back in from college and it turns out my aunt had found a monofin someone was getting rid of, so she got it for me! It's a child size finis wave so not one I'd use personally but it'll really come in handy in the future if we decide to try teaching kids, or if my particularly small friend gets into mermaiding XD Yay for free equipment!
...
I ordered my first tail today! I'm almost officially a mermaid! (I still have to buy a monofin...)
I totally should've said this sooner but I'm seriously happy, on thursday a local pool basically said an initial yes to having me provide party services as a mermaid, and they invited me to their New Year party to do some promotional swimming! It's actually on my birthday rather than New Year's Eve or Day, which makes it a really fun thing to be doing that day :D
I'm an Eaglescout now! I also ordered and got the supplies to start my scale maille armor! And I'm happy because I got to play board games with some of my close friends last night, and I got a cool octopus poster set from Made With Tone, an awesome charity that helps teach music to children. There's so many cool things that have been happening lately, and it makes me so happy. It's really easy to get lost in the funk and only see the negative, but I'm so glad I'm not there anymore.
