I love my tumblr. The one no one knows about. The one that is pretty much an online diary. It’s much easier than a written one. I think faster than I write.

Why do I look at people who do extraordinary things and want to be better myself. I’ve always felt like I was meant to do something with my life, but I’ve just been to lazy to do anything about it. I need to get myself together, stop complaining about the little things, and become motivated. I don’t know what it is that will make my life extraordinary, but until I figure that out, I need to just try my hardest to be the best possible person that I can. Eventually, I’m bound to figure out that my life has a plan and what that is and hopefully I can change lives along the way.

Is it sad that I just had an epiphany after watching Never Say Never?

The Rainbow Road Shot Challenge

The Drunken Moogle reader Mar and her husband submitted a combination of shots, meant to be taken together, called the Rainbow Road Shot challenge.

Each shot represents a monster in the Mario universe. As the monsters get stronger down the road, so does the shot! Participants start out with the Goomba shot and end with the flaming Bowser shot.

Goomba: Kahlua & cream
Koopa: Mojito - light rum, mint, and simple syrup, with a mint sugar rim
Boo: Vanilla infused vodka & non-dairy creamer
Thwamp: Blueberry vodka jello shot, with blue sugar rim
Dry Bones: Dirty Gin Martini
Bowser: Thai bird chili & cinnamon candy infused bacardi 151, with cinnamon sugar rim (Light the shot on fire, but BE CAREFUL! Lighting the shot on fire is optional; The Drunken Moogle isn’t responsible if you burn your face off.)

Words can’t express how excited I am to try this! Thanks again to Mar for creating and sharing this experience. Drink responsibly, Moogles.

Whaaaaat? I want to try!….minus the fire. haha My nerdyness is totally coming out right now.

The Kirby (Kirby Cocktail)

Ingredients:
1 cherry jello shot made with Malibu Coconut Rum
4 oz. pink lemonade
2 oz. Bacardi Superior Rum
1 oz. Hiram Walker Blackberry Brandy

Directions: Place the jello shot in the bottom of the glass first. Slowly pour in pink lemonade, rum, and brandy. If done properly, the jello shot will stay at the bottom of the glass. Drink the alcohol and eat the jello shot last. The jello shot, according to drink’s creator Shana, absorbs the alcohol in the drink, just as Kirby absorbs his enemies powers!

(Drink created and photographed by TDM fan Shana. Thanks for the submission!)

And then I want to try this.

aha. oh the puns.

But seriously, I am pretty much a sewing master recently. I just finished a couple dresses and shirts and now I’m attempting to drape a dress. Time to get out my dress form and attempt to be a legit seamstress. Hurrah! I’ll try and post pictures if I remember. This should be pretty interesting.

When I get stressed, frustrated, or annoyed, (in this case the latter) I craft. And I bake. So a blank clipboard, paint, a few hours, and about 100 mini cupcakes later…. I have this. (and some delicious snacks)

This will be my new recruitment clipboard. Yay! :)

Too bad I’m not able to leave the cupcakes for all my sisters. They are all so far away from me. :(

This is so cute & makes me want to buy a clipboard & paint it something fancy.

I need this clip board. haha

Oh gosh...

I totally just made the transition from David Tennant to Matt Smith as The Doctor. I literally almost cried. The ending of the episode was so sad. It’s gonna suck when I finish the most current episodes and run out of things to watch. I swear, I’m going to go through every TV show in existence. Doctor Who and Torchwood were two of my favorites though…then Torchwood ended. I hate it when shows end. Boo. Anyways, now I get to start the new seasons with Matt Smith. He’s got big shoes to fill. David Tennant was AWESOME. Though, if Billie Piper makes one more appearance, I’m going to punch her in the face. She annoyed me sooooo much!! I think it was the way she talked. Plus, she looked really odd when she came back after she lost all that weight.

Anyways, that’s my rant.
