I Was Not The Winner Of "Prints Charming's" Heart

A few posts back, I mentioned that I was entering a contest at http://www.modcloth.com/. The contest name was "Make the Cut: 'Prints' Charming". I was informed today that none of my submissions made the cut. I'm quite disappointed as I was very excited at the opportunity. However, I am glad that I tried. 

On March 3rd, 3/3/14, the final 10 dresses that do make it will be opened to what Modcloth names "Be the Buyer" in which the community can vote on the dresses and ultimately choose the winner. I plan on voting and am excited to see the dress designs that made it. I encourage you to check them out! Again, the dresses won't be available to vote on until March 3rd, however, they do have other dresses constantly open to vote on and they can all be found here http://www.modcloth.com/storefront/products/be_the_buyer

PCOS

So for the past few years now, I have actually been having some menstrual problems, (I know this is all what you wanted to read today), and I have been to the doctor before to try and figure out what was going on and tried different things, but today, I finally went to the Gynecologist. I found out I actually have something called Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. My gynecologist is putting me on something to regulate my menstrual cycle for now, however, one of the problems that come with PCOS is difficulty conceiving later on in life.

When I went in today I was extremely worried I was going to be told that I couldn't have children. I'm very relieved to find out that that is not the case. 

That being said, there's basically three options.

1. I can have children with no problem.
2. I require medical assistance whenever I want to have children

or

3. I can't have children.

While I'm relieved that I still have a chance, I'm still not sure what will happen. I am glad, though, that I finally know what is going on with my body. 

P.S. 
I really want to have a baby girl someday.

Modcloth Contest

Hey Guys! 

I'm super excited. Why? Great Question! 

One of my favorite websites, Modcloth ( http://www.modcloth.com/ ) Which is an online vintage clothing store and more, is putting on a contest! The contest is for anyone who wants to submit a new design for a dress. They provide the template and you have to come up with the print. Whoever wins receives a free dress with their pattern, Modcloth will sell the winning design (with your name on the label) and the winner even receives $500! 

I'm excited because I'm going to submit some designs. I'm not sure if I'm going to win, I'm not getting my hopes too high, but, I'm excited because I'm trying. 

On top of all of this, Brandon is coming up on the 12th and staying until the 17th! I can't wait to see him again. It's been just about 2 months since I saw him last. It is extremely hard and painful not to see him for so long. He makes me happy. 

For Valentines day we're thinking about going to the Planetarium, the Museum, and then out for dinner. What do you think? 

'Till next time!
