okay.

dear readers,

thank you all for being so patient with me during these last 2 weeks of the fall semester. even now i am sitting at panera (as always) trying to write a 12 page paper on Byzantine icons in the Byzantine culture for Art History. Such a crazy crazy work load (and hard tests!) for a 2 credit hour course. but alas, they must be done so here I am... doing them. well, at least attempting to. even with my crazy school load, i've been making time to spend with my dear friends in person. so many lovely people and so many lovely events and i wouldn't trade them for a significant gain in sleep (since i'm currently lacking).

last night I joined merissa, jt, kayce, and jonathan at kayce & jonathan's house for some drinks and conversation. we headed over to Rumours East for the AIGA Nashville Thirsty Third Thursday event. Not too long after we went to Drifters for some food and walked to 3 Crow Bar for some thursday night trivia and drinks. even though i was beyond exhausted for my 8:30am art history class, i made it. huzzah! only one class to go and luckily thats our final! woohoo!

tonight i have to work as usual, and tomorrow too. hopefully i can find time to do this paper, an integrated proposal, and work on my flash site, oh AND advertising! before the beginning of the week. its so incredibly stressful.

i've been talking to several friends who are in a similar career field as myself and listening/discussing their plans post-graduation, etc. i'm very excited about what will follow graduation for me. it'll be 6 months of a less-than-ideal living situation but its all for the greater purpose and what i'm planning on doing with my life. i've actually written up a post about it already and i'll be releasing it from the queue later today :)

also, a huge huge thank you to the several personal emails i've received this week from some of you! you literally have no idea how exciting it is for me to open my inbox and see an email from a real-life person who reads along to my silly blurbs and ramblings, and they find it in themselves to send a personal message. i was sitting at school yesterday when i received an email that gave me goosebumps. i read it to elle and she said "whoa that gave me the chills"... silly maybe, but little things like that really make my day.


this was amazing. so thank you candice! you're truly a gem.

if anyone ever wants to email me, feel free. you dont have to sing my praises, but if you want to talk about nothing specific, or anything specific, or if you just need a place to vent, my inbox always has room. it might take a day or two to get back to you but i promise if you take the time to write me, i'll take the time to listen/read and write back. :)


you can contact me at:
kaelahbee (at) gmail (dot) com


okay! back to this paper!

eskimo kisses and heart shaped post-it notes,
kaelah

it's monday!

indeed it is. start to the new work week. slaving away at school over classes that you'll swear you'll never need. we're all doing it. i'm in class right now actually.. hehe.. flash. oh my! starting on my final project.. a self promotional website and i like my concept a lot.. i just have to make it work technically. thats typically my problem. luckily we bolt out of here in an hour. afterwards i'm supposed to join my friends merissa, her hubby JT, and tiffany to venture to nashville at the rutledge to see jonathan singleton & the grove, jonathan being the husband of our other dear friend, kayce. so many people! :D either way, it should be a lovely kick-off to music monday!

what i'm thinking about doing with the blog is a weekly rotation of posts, similar to what people do on twitter, etc. music monday, follow friday or fashion friday (or both!), weekend repeat (round-up), etc etc etc. i just have to find proper themes for tuesday and wednesday. hmm.. but does that sound like something that would appeal to you? you are, afterall, the readers and this is written FOR you. :)

my idea for music monday is maybe a mixtape each week? if time allows, at least. and maybe a few of my favorite songs i've had on repeat. follow friday could be some of my new favorite blogs or websites, and fashion friday would be similar to what i did this past week with a recap of my favorite outfits i've seen. it's just a way to help keep me motivated. :)

if you have any awesome suggestions for other days or themes, feel free to leave them below! you can be anonymous if you so wish. but dont hesitate to use this idea on your blog, too! i know a lot of people have been doing things similar to the 'things i love thursdays' so its a great way to connect the whole blogging community!

as for right now, i'm leaning heavy on the type and not enough on the visual aspect so i'll leave you with some eye candy!

update!

hello friends! i do apologize for slacking on the "personal" updates but why would you want to read about the life of another when you're out and about manifesting your own dream life full of exciting adventures right?! you better be out there doing just that! ;)

at the moment i'm sitting in a little nook at the cool springs panera listening to the honey trees and i just finished a slightly-lukewarm bowl of soup. this weather is marvelous and i'm slightly disappointed in myself for not going out and experiencing it more. all in a days work i suppose!

the past few days have been a whirlwind. oh so busy but oh so rewarding! i'm trying to balance the hectic senior year of college with work and friends and family, too. i'm so excited to say that i'll be venturing to my hometown of Hohenwald tomorrow to see my folks! the 70-mile drive never ceases to inspire me, especially in the autumn months. my mother always seems to ignite a flame in my heart to push me to be a better person simply because she is who she is. it's such a wonderful blessing to have people like that in your life. many heartfelt conversations this week have only strengthened my never-waning belief that she is a saint. this weekend has been slow at work thus far. i do hope business picks up tonight. not only for my monetary benefit but because another establishment in the area closed its doors this week due to the economy. praying that that is not in my near future (or future at all, really!).

yesterday was gorgeous so i took it upon myself to wash my car (finally! after everyone and their brother telling me "you should REALLY wash your car...") yeah yeah yeah... i did! and cleaned it out! and i even got an oil change today! (after going 7,500 miles...). peep these iphone pictures.


how embarassing... yes... that brown stuff... thats not a shadow. that is indeed the amount of dirt caked onto the back of my car. it didnt really TRULY bother me too much (i've been SO busy!) until i washed part of it off and saw the drastic contrast. oops!



of course baby G has to get in on the water action. this dog LOVES the waterhose!






so fresh and so clean clean!





well i typically let georgia wander wherever her heart desires. she's a good dog and will come when called and she doesn't run off of the property so i say let her play! i had turned my back for maybe 3 to 5 minutes and realized i didnt hear her rustling in the leaves as usual. i turned around in my room and THIS was sitting there... in my floor... leg-deep in muck and mud. but oh isn't she just adorable?! her face says it all. she knew she wasn't supposed to do that.


this is what i'm currently wearing today. i'm loving the metallic gold and black this season. i'm not sure why! i've been really thinking of a drastic hair change. i'll keep the color, of course. theres nothing quite like being a redhead. but i've grown so frustrated with my nappy curly messy of a head that maybe i should try something else? do you have any suggestions? i haven't had a proper cut in 5+ years... thats right. you heard me.

outfit details:
dress: target ($19.99)
cardigan: charlotte russe ($23.99)
cameo pendant @ waist: for love 21 ($4)
tights: walmart (2 pairs doubled up) $8
black flats: wet seal ($9.99)
necklace: for love 21 ($8)
new iphone case: borders ($20)
(the iphone case has food characters! so so cute!
i bought the matching clear umbrella too! with a baby blue handle!)


as i finish sitting in panera, i'm journaling out in my moleskine so many entries that i can't wait to share with you all! as well as giveaways (for real this time! hehe). so just stay tuned!

ps; heres a quick shout-out & thank you to even more people who were so gracious enough to help spread the kaelahbee word! you guys are awesome!

exciting!

you can now find this blog at kaelahbee.com

AND LITTLECHIEFHONEYBEE.COM!

i'll have forwarding taken off of kaelahbee.com once i get my actual site up and running, but until then it'll say double-hosted with the domains. update your bookmarks if needed! if you read through blogger or google reader you'll be fine :D

don't let this confuse you! you will still be able to access the exact same site at the url of kaelahbee.com! at least for the time being :) i just went ahead and bought the little chief domain so others wouldn't jack it, too :)

first things first....

this is my pissed off face.



okay for a little small small update!

+ i changed the blog header. once more. going by my ~myspace name. i know, cliche, whatever.

+ tweaked the CSS coding to make the page 200 pixels wider. do you like it or hate it? i prefer a wider page... but i AM working on a 17" widescreen macbook pro soooo it may be too wide for someone with a smaller resolution. (the main writing area is now 580px as opposed to 430..) do you like it thinner or wider?

+ tweaked the colors in the layout. finally. the header now matches the background. long overdue.

+ getting irritated because some girl went and took "little chief honeybee" on every single social networking site... oh, and to top it off she THEN went and added my boyfriend on twitter. WTF? i know you read this, little girl. i know you're lurking the shit. stop it. so annoying.

+ "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" ORLY?! no. no it's not.

+ i probably shouldn't get so worked up about it but i'm just really irritated at a bunch of my shit making it's way around the circle of the internet but every single person that is using it is claiming it as their own. pictures are one thing (and a creepy thing at that) but when you have the gall to jack someone's about me (as trivial as it may seem) or something, thats just lame. you can jack all the intellectual property you want, but you can't have my boyfriend :)

+ pardon my language, but dear girl, kindly go fuck yourself.

+ its saturday. its a work day. i'm tired. i'm grumpy. it's cold.
