I created a new button for the blog today. I would love if you guys would grab it and put it up on your blogs! And guess what! I've got the button exchange working (well sort of... I can't seem to make the scrolling html work) so that means I've not lost any of your buttons either!

How I'm going to miss you so! I love this blog so much, but lately it's been feeling like I'm having to force myself to even think about writing here. I feel like so much has happened since the creation of this blog, and when I look over the things I normally write here, I realize I'm a very different person now. So, here's the deal ... one last confession before I leave, http://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/12/oh-my-lovely-readers.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-400825783161110002Sun, 20 Nov 2011 22:40:00 +00002011-11-20T16:40:58.687-06:00Well, today I'm feeling a bit better from my bronchitis, and I decided I would work on laundry, and put a little makeup on to see if that would help me feel better (because oddly it does sometimes). So I put on clean clothes, gather up all of my dirty stuff, which meant going out to my little brother's car shop to get stuff that has been packed up since my move, and I bring everything back insidehttp://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/11/on-beauty-makeup.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-4389438462893269105Fri, 11 Nov 2011 16:08:00 +00002011-11-11T10:08:12.886-06:00As many of you know, I have made a vow to myself to get closer with my gods, and deeper in my own beliefs. While it's still not winter weather here in my area of Texas (minus the 24 hour snow we had in Amarillo just before I finished my hours at school), it is getting more chilly. I'm a chicken when it comes to a cool breeze unless it shows up out of the blue on a hot summer day to cool me off, http://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/11/re-connecting-with-nature-in-winter.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-3940904250633266110Wed, 09 Nov 2011 01:52:00 +00002011-11-08T19:52:27.689-06:00I have a new poll, because I want to know this ... do you think I should dress the blog up for Yule already, wait, or don't change it at all, or change it completely but not Yule related? I kind of like the background as it is, but I feel like I should at least change the banner if I'm going to leave this background.

I have completed the 600 hours I needed to be done with school, I will be taking my written test on Thursday at 1:30, and after that I can schedule my practical. After I've completed my practical I send in for my license, then I wait a little while and I can start working.

I'm a little late to the party, but I needed time to figure out what I wanted to contribute to the party. I sat down today and started watching TV. ABCFamily is doing their 13 days of Halloween, and tonight they are playing Practical Magic. I haven't watched that movie since last year at this time of year, even though I own it. I've been questioning a lot of things this year, and http://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/10/witches-tea-party.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-3496767814869499483Fri, 28 Oct 2011 23:08:00 +00002011-10-28T18:58:27.893-05:00I found a new witchy friend! I've actually gone to school with her for a while, and we've been talking and hanging out for a while. I just found out today that she is Wiccan. Out of respect for her, I'm not going to say her name, but I was so excited when I just decided to ask her what religion she was and she told me Wiccan! So exciting!

I still have to complete a few hours. I'll be 100% done on Tuesday, but we had our graduation ceremony today. I was informed last minute that I would be included in the graduation ceremony so Mom wasn't able to come since the ceremony was today and I was told today that I would be part of it.

They really made me feel better. I just thought I would take some time out to let you guys know everything that's going on. The last time I wrote, the rv park I live in was making me get rid of my dog. I took her to my mom's where she's safest, and told you guys that I am moving.

Most of you know that Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday of the entire year, but I have to admit, I'm just not in my jolly Halloween mood this year. I'm sure the stress of school, moving, and so forth is part of it, and I dearly miss the excitement I usually feel around thishttp://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/10/missing-that-jolly-halloween-feeling.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-7794969196986628441Fri, 21 Oct 2011 04:24:00 +00002011-10-20T23:24:09.102-05:00Okay, again... I've been gone and busy... tonight I decided to try to catch up on everything I've missed and I ran across this awesome giveaway over at Confessions of a Pagan Soccer Mom. There's a book called The Witches Book of the Dead by Christian Day that I have my eyes on and I'm crossing my fingers hoping I might win.

Things at school have been hectic. Thankfully I'll be finished with school at the end of next week! I'm so ready to be out of there! I love what I do... I really enjoy being able to make people relax with wonderful massages and things like that. I really enjoy coming up with my own ideas for spa manis and pedis, but I have one http://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/10/big-hello-plus-major-school-rant.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-7209938239966011105Sun, 25 Sep 2011 01:26:00 +00002011-09-24T20:31:52.362-05:00Welcome all partiers! I'm sorry this post is a little late. I've been working on my house again! So because I've had my mind on other things completely, I had to pull this post out of thin air! There's a part in the movie when Sally tells Officer Hallet that his star is just a symbol, it can't stop criminals in their tracks, and it only has power because he believes it does.

Keep the suggestions coming and I'll keep making it better! I currently do not have a permanent, brick and mortar salon because I have not finished school just yet. I should be finished in October.

Well I created a website for my nail salon, just to practice and test things out. You'll notice on the site that there is no phone number or address yet but other than that everything is the way I want it... I think.

All of you should know by now that I recently went through a break up where everything seemed to be going fine in the relationship until he came home and said he didn't love me. This has been eating at me forever. It bothers me because I kept asking him what went wrong, why he didn't love me anymore, and he kept saying nothing that the relationship was perfect,http://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/09/break-ups-are-so-hard-to-handle.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-2644619962403684475Fri, 16 Sep 2011 17:32:00 +00002011-09-16T12:32:39.312-05:00Okay, so I'm way too busy to try to start another blog party for a while, but there are awesome parties going on all over the blog-o-sphere.

I just logged on today, after receiving my new computer (bought off Ebay), and realized I haven't written anything since Beltane!!! And here it is coming closer to Samhain! Let me catch you up on some of the things that have happened in my life since Beltane. #1: I moved from Lubbock to Amarillo to be with a friend of mine that I used to http://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/09/where-have-days-gone.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-728577934472481916Sun, 01 May 2011 19:58:00 +00002011-05-01T14:58:07.789-05:00So I let days slip by... I didn't even know today was Beltane until I started reading everyone's posts. Of course I should have known as today is the first day of May lol. As it is, I probably will not do anything to celebrate, except maybe leave an offering of honey or wine to Aphrodite. If I had been planning, like a good little witch, I probably would have done something really awesome, but I http://collegewitchexperiences.blogspot.com/2011/05/oh-my-gods-its-beltane.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Amber)2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-460750018232368424.post-2632463400914052872Wed, 27 Apr 2011 18:05:00 +00002011-04-27T13:05:00.817-05:00I picked up this topic this morning when I read this post over at Witchy Gumbo, which found their inspiration by reading this post over at Kally's Cauldron. The topic of people coming out of the witchy closet has been a hot one for a long time. I don't want to add any controversy, so I'll just tell my story. I personally am out of the closet.

I requested this book from Llewellyn Press and they sent it to me in exchange for a review. I absolutely love this book.
