Day 44

Happy Halloween. I'm just a girl in a poodle skirt. I got this tie from my sister. The end. That's it. No story to tell. It's sunny outside. I baked lots of things last night. I baked a cake, which fell, oatmeal cookies, sugar cookies, fun fetti cookies, and brownies. I have a presentation to do also. So we shall see how that goes. Much love, K

Day 43

I bought this tie at Claire's. So today was sucky. I went to church thinking I was gonna sing, well I did, but not in my own robe. So that sucked for me, almost cried. I know it sounds stupid but it didn't feel like. But I was also tired so after that I just passed out :D Sleep is good, especially with two cats keeping you company. So now I am going to bake and hopefully fix me some food. I like broccoli :D Much love, K

Day 42

Today is just filled with wonderful things. First, I got a box of ties from my pastor in Buffalo :D And second, IT'S SNOWING! I know it won't stick but I'm still excited. I should probably go looking for places to ice skate. I'm super excited. Now I have to go to work so hopefully that doesn't suck. I doubt it will. I just gotta make sure I do my job. I hope people stay home and enjoy the snow so I don't have to work :) Much love, K

Dat 41

My dear friend from Career Services wanted me to wear purple, so here it is. I stole this tie from my sister. She wasn't wearing it and it was just sitting in a drawer. Now it has a place among 100 other ties. And yea, my cat is licking her butt. I thought it was funny. I didn't do it on purpose. I just took the picture. Umm, today. Sunny but cold. I need to go to the gym but I don't have time. I need to finish my project but I don't know how. And yea, no observation which is cool. Much love, K

Day 40

Hey there! I have no clue where this tie came from. No idea what so ever. I kinda wish someone out there knew where I got it. Oh well. I had a very productive night. Did a lot of my project, all besides my part, which I have no clue how it fits in. I think I need another group meeting. Today is a rainy day. I gotta eat Breakfast and then get to work, then my observations at BMCC and then home, to do idk what, then watching the Secret Circle and then I guess more homework. And friday is up in the air. I know I said I didn't want to live by myself but I don't like the possibility of living with my sister but I think that is how it will have to be. I can handle it, through Jesus Christ who strengthens me. Pray for me. Much love, K

Day 39

I am super stressed and tired. I need a little relief. I decided I am not going through with the apartment gig nor the welfare thing. Everything is just too complicated. I don't want to have to convince people to give me things and prove to them I can afford or need such and such things. I have a God who can give me all things so I do not need man to tell me what I can and can not have or what I need or don't need. And all this lying is just not cool. I'm done. Finished. So I will move in with granny if I have to and then just finish up school and go somewhere not American. I want to go to a place where English is not spoken, where the people are nice and don't lie. They can be mean and steal and kill but don't lie about it. I wanna go somewhere sunny but also there is snow. And I just want like to be more simple than it is now. That's it. I'm not asking for too much, am I? Oh, oh I got this tie from my fabulous friends Ruth and Marilyn. Such awesome women of God. Wish I had them here with me. Anyway, Much love, K

Day 38

This is another one of the wigs we have. I think I'll actually go to work in it. Also this tie is from Tina. I keep wanting to call her Nancy. They are so similar. Anyway, today will be a good day. It just has to be. I love my friends. Learning Spanish. Life is good. Praise God. Much love, K

Day 37

This tie I got from my grandma at some Delta Sigma Theta Luncheon. It says I love Jesus, which I do! And the cats are there, as usual. So I got denied welfare! Awesome, now I just need to convince my mom not to let me have the apartment by myself and just move in with my grandma. That would be awesome :D I pray everything goes according to the Lord's plan. Much love, K

Day 36

So yes, that is a wig :D And this tie I bought for myself at Macy's Mens. It is another Jerry Garcia tie :D That's it I guess. Nothing special going today, just need to finish up my homework and start on my group project. I can do this! Much love, K

Day 35

Today's tie comes from Macy's Men/ I got it my freshman year. It is was one of the very first ties I bought for myself and I think I did a pretty good job. Nothing more to say right now. Maybe tomorrow. Pieces. Much love, K

Day 34

Today's tie comes from Bob. He's just a good tie picker/wearer. I miss him. I think I shall send him a thank you note. Anyway, I was super stressed last night and now I'm not so much. I have prayed and everything is in God's hands now. I will do my best and see what happens. I just left choir rehearsal feeling really low because I did not have someone to hug and be happy to see me but when I checked my mail. My good friend in Buffalo had sent me love notes and two ties. This came right at moment that I needed it. I know that I am most definitely loved and couldn't image ever feeling like I wasn't. I shall always count my blessings and name them one by one. God is in charge, so I will relax. Much love, K

Day 33

So I am dumb tired and not even trying tonight. I gotta make these in the morning again. I don't know if I can stay awake to even write anything. This tie came from a friend from a long time ago. Today was super busy and I loved it. I got to meet some really cool college students who have trouble with English. I can't wait to get to know them better. There are so many things going on in my life right now, I just want to relax and be not stressed. Tomorrow I have to take the cat to the vet, then have a group meeting to work out our project, then I have to go to BMCC for the observation again and then I have choir rehearsal. Saturday is another observation and then work. Sunday is the only day I have to relax. Then Monday everything starts all over again :( K

Day 32

They're back!!! I just got home from church and work. I am pooped but still wanted to post this so I don't forget and get all messed up with my postings. It's nice to know that Blogger isn't slowing down my uploads unlike facebook. It's taking me twice as long to upload one pic, it's ridiculous. Facebook better buck up, or else it's fired. Anywho, today was pretty crazy, got on the wrong train, missed my stop, was way early for work, some person paid over 5,000 dollars in 100 dollar bills and some lady skipped the line, was rude and had mad stuff in her cart and didn't even get half of it. That's three strikes against that lady, we should have sent her packing. Other than that it was a pretty okay day. I got to see all my fav people except Lina, oh well, maybe next time. Much love, K

Day 31

I have no clue where I got this tie. Probably from the bunch Bob or Amanda's Dad gave me, who knows! I sure don't. School is getting super stressful and work is so far away, as well as school. I just want one thing to be simple. I guess we all can't have what we wish for. Much love, K

Day 30

This tie I bought somewhere. I have no clue where, but I think I wanted it because it said Happy New Year and it was a dollar and now I remember where I got it. I bought it at Target! Probably when I was with my friend Jessica. She is always taking me somewhere. I miss those days. She's such a good friend and I'm such a crappy one to her. Well if she ever reads this! Love you Jess! Much love, K

Day 29

This tie I got from some little store in the Manhattan Mall before it got it's makeover. Nothing special about it, just a plain old red tie. Hope you all enjoy your Sunday. I'm trying to inspire myself to go up the hill to go to church but it is just not working. However, once I finish this, I shall go. I gotta feed the other cats again... Much love, K

Day 28

So yesterday's tie was not from Nancy, I meant to say Tina. It's an easy mistake with them being so similar... secretaries. Well Tina gave me like four ties, I can't remember what they all were but I know for sure this one was it! It says I'm lovin it. So I assume she once worked at McD but I don't care. I don't discriminate. A tie is a tie, even if I can't tie it and it has Velcro in the back. Time for school and work, wish me luck. Much love, K

Day 27

My mom has me up at 8 on a Friday morning, so we can get food stamps. This stinks, why can't life be simple, where you get up at ten or noon and do your business then. Oh well, got eight minutes til we leave. I haven't brushed my teeth or ate breakfast. This will be fun. Oh and this tie could have come from Nancy, not quite sure, not sure at all. Much love, K

Day 26

So I have no clue, yet again where I got this tie. It could have come in the big bag my roomie's dad gave me or from Bob, who knows. I don't think it's Bob though, all of Bob's ties were like fun and crazy this one isn't so much but it's still great! Much love, K

Day 25

These cats are meowing all over the place. I don't know what's wrong with them. I hope they get better. The both have food and stuff so they should be good. Anyway, I got this tie from my old buddy Tishawn. We be friends a really long time. Now we're college graduates doing what college graduates do I guess. I have no clue actually. So today is a sucky day, no sunshine and it looks like it may rain, which I hope it doesn't. Other than that, it might just be an okay day. Much love, K

Day 24

My grandma just pushed me off the computer desk so I'm at this side thingy I made up with a little table and chair. The cats are under my sheets, well one is. And the other I have no clue where it is. So this tie I got from Amber, She's my very bestest friend. But now that we are old and graduated from college she be doing big and great things like traveling around Europe. Miss her very much. Much love, K

Day 23

See, I have ties to go with work out clothes. So this tie I got from my friend Mariely. She's from Puerto Rico. I don't know why she gave me the tie, maybe it was around my birthday but I haven't a clue. It's from Italy and looks pretty cool. Love it! Much love, K

Day 22

So this tie I have no clue who gave it to me. If it looks familiar tell me where I might have gotten it. Thanks. So today I try and get money for books. They are all children's books so we shall see. I hope I get at least twenty bucks for them all. That would be nice. Then I go to Petco and get some more cat food. And I think that will be it for me. Maybe take a walk, but I don't like walking around NYC, there are always people around and way too many of them. Much love, K

Day 21

It's three weeks since I've started this thing. I haven't even gotten to the hardest ones yet. It's extremely hard trying to remember where I got all these ties from. Well today's tie is one of those ties. I think my sister gave me this tie but I'm not absolutely sure. We shall see what she says. And I feel much better about work, I was not out of line, it was my supervisor, she's jealous of my style, oh well. Can't wait for Andre to come back in a week! He's my favorite, for now, lol. Oh and I think i left my hat in class today, totally ruined my day. But I'm getting closer to finishing up my required observation days which is cool. But I just might continue cuz I love me some old people who can't speak English :D Much love, K

Day 20

So I had this awesome idea. I wanted the cats to sit there and have the tie around them, but one got up and then I brought her back, but then the other one moved. It's probably because she's hungry. I need to go get some food. Oh well. So I got this tie from Chris. My ex roomie's fiance now :( I don't like wedding but I guess it's better than having babies all willy-nilly. It's disturbing to see the pattern of all my Buffalo friends getting married and my NYC ones having babies with strange guys. I don't think people should be having babies at my age, especially when you don't have enough money to support then, did u know that they cost about a million dollars by the time they go to college. See now I can be a millionaire if I save the money you're going to spend. Oh well, I still love my friends even when they mess up. That's the difference between me and then, I'm pretty sure they can handle it, I definitely know I could not. I'd lose my mind and send the child to Europe. Much love, K

Day 19

I decided to have that cat wear the tie. Thanks Trixie, even though she was biting it at first. This morning both cats trapped me in bed. One decided to lay between my legs and other on my side that lets me out of bed. So I had to move slowly to get up. So yesterday I had to go change a litter box which was super gross, but it wasn't for my cats, it was for my sister's. And they have claws n stuff. Anyway, it was not cool, not cool at all. And now I mist go feed them. Oh and I got the tie from BT. He's a bald man I know from my school. He does stuff. Much love, K

Day 18

This tie I stole from my sister. I just wanted it, and I don't know why, but I like it. I don't even know why I started this blog, I have very bad memory, so all this trying to recall where I got my ties, is just making my head hurt. Like yesterday I believe I got it from Bob but I'm not 100% sure anymore. This is why when I take tests I don't go over my answers, I will second guess myself and choose the wrong one. However, once I do get through this I will have all my ties documented and can just go look up where I got each one, lol. Much love, K

Day 17

This is another tie from Bob, he's just super awesome like that. Yes, it's a Christmas tie. I'm ready for Christmas. Actually I don't even like Christmas when it's actually here. I don't like the music or what people make of it. I like the real meaning of it, just being aware that Jesus was born, kinda like celebrating his birthday. But how do you celebrate someone's birthday who's no longer physically alive to give presents to. Idk, oh well. Off to work. Much love, K

Day 16

This is taking forever, I guess 100 days isn't as quick as I thought it was. So I'm over two weeks into this thing, and I get tired now and then. Plus I have to find ties that go along with my uniform for work, which sucks. I guess I could just take off my tie but still, I wanna wear my ties... Anyway, so this tie is from my old neighbor's mother. Man, was she a good neighbor. We were so much alike that we tried to scare each other. We walked stealthily into the hall from our rooms trying to sneak into the others' room but ended up meeting in the middle and laughing at ourselves. It was the most amazing moment of my life. And now my roommates are two cats and my mother. But not for long, thank goodness. Much love, K

Day 15

Coming home, after church. This tie I got from my friend Kenwrick, he goes to my church. He was nice enough to give me a tie. I guess my powers of persuasion are pretty good. I like this tie, and definitely reminds me of my good friend. So today is a pretty slow day, nothing to do, just gonna write some love letters and clean. Wish me luck, Much love, K

Day 14

This tie, I'm pretty sure I bought for myself at Macy's or Express. Men section of course :D Today is gonna be a very busy day, looks like it's gonna rain too :( Much love, K
