Thanks for stopping by! You have stumbled upon the personal website of Sidney Collins (aka Bubs). I'm a 27-year old student at the University of Alabama studying Computer Science and Mathematics. When I'm not busy programming you'll probably find me writing, drawing, reading, shopping, eating, or playing Monopoly.
Last night I bought some cute Christmas cards for the annual Quilting Bee exchange 
Would anyone else be interested in exchanging Christmas cards with me? Don’t be shy, I love making new friends! And of course, old pen pals are welcome, too ♥ Let me know ASAP so I can get them to you by Christmas.
So what is Santa bringing you this year? I’ve made my list…
While pruning the queue at Oh My Cuteness, I stumbled upon a wonderful site! Ragen, the author, has amassed quite a compilation of cuteness. Here are some of my favorite finds:
Think roaming gnome, but with one of my octopus toys! All you have to do is take my toy on an adventure. Photograph and blog about the adventure along the way. After the adventure is complete, pass my octopus on to the next person in the chain 
According to Natalie, the octopus is the new black 
I’m so glad that my favorite 8-legged friend is finally getting his chance to shine! This silver octopus necklace is so cute, I might have to buy it.
I’m suddenly obsessed with all the Web 2.0 apps out there… especially Twitter. I started using it after I installed its Facebook app. I soon realized that you could update it through your cell… how fun!
Twitter will be even more fun when I get my iPhone in 2 weeks 
I know what you’re thinking — it’s so overpriced. Well, I’ve had sucky cell phones all my life… I deserve a good one! I love my iPod and Powerbook, so I trust Apple to provide me with an excellent product.
I’m watching a documentary on the octopus — my favorite animal. Did you know that an octopus will unscrew the lid of a jar to get to the contents? The documentary stated that octopuses may be as intelligent as dogs.
Someday, I’m going to get one as a pet. Last December, I met a guy at a restaurant who had an awesome octopus tattoo. After I inquired about his tattoo, he told me that he had an octopus as a pet. He special-ordered it from Petco for $150. I don’t remember what size aquarium he kept it in, but I’m thinking it was a 30-gallon. I actually have a vacant 30-gallon aquarium
Feral Squidlet…
Not technically an octopus, but close enough! I want her for my desk Thanks Sereneonion!
O Google, what would I do without thee?
I would never have found this adorable octopus necklace + earrings set! Be sure to check out the rest of the cute jewelry creations at the Spotted Octopus Shop.
On a side note, does anyone have the font VAG Rounded Light/Thin?? I wouldn’t be stealing it, I promise! I have it back in my home town on my old computer, but I need it for a project
