Hey y'all!

Along with the Christmas decorations and pies and cookies, I've decided to bring out the holiday spirit! Yes, that's right, deck the halls, Fa lalalalalala!

Well, I'm going to go back to spending time with fam. I hope you guys have a wonderfully safe Christmas Eve!
Merry Christmas Eve!

Day 125/126/127/128/129- 2 days til' Christmas... Wait, what?

Hey guys!

  So I can't believe it's 2 days til' Christmas. It doesn't even feel like Winter? This year has gone by SO fast. I'm still in August in my mind! Ugh. :\
I'm realllllly busy today, So siging off...

Day 123/124- My new obsession... Detroit 1-8-7!

Hey y'all!

So guess what... My sis and I were on Netflix and we saw this show on instant or whatever. Detroit 1-8-7. We watched like two episodes and now we're both hooked! It's a pretty awesome show. I think it got cancelled cause there's only the first season on there.

Don't you hate that? The awesome shows get cancelled, and the crappy ones stay on.

Day 118/119/120/121/122- Lock In!

Hey guys!

So tomorrow's my school's last day before Christmas Break. Or "Holiday" Break.. Or "Winter" Break, Whatever you call it, It serves the same purpose, right? ;)

And so on, since it's the last day, it's absolutely pointless to even go. So, I'm skipping. :)

My friend invited me to a Lock-In at her church. I don't know if I'm gonna go yet, but I want to! It's about time I get out of the house besides school and daily strolls down the driveway to get the mail.

Well...

Gotta go, y'all!

Day 115/116/117- Keep calm and carry on... (Easier said than done.)

Do you ever feel like jumping out of the car in the middle of the highway, or just running away?

Leaving it all behind... Without ever looking back...

If you could just dissappear...

Forever.

But, why don't I? Why don't I jump out of the car? Dissappear... Whenever I get close to just, snapping, something inside, just holds me back.
It's like this piece of me, when the rest is shattered and about to crash, that peice, it keeps it together. It keeps me together.

I sound crazy, don't I? Depression and teenagers aren't a great pair, but it's not like I necessarily have a choice in the ladder. I want so bad to be, happy.

I want to be able to say, "I am happy." And really mean it.

-I should take this guys advice... ;)

Day 111/112/113/114- Wow, I'm most definately sucking at this.

Hello!

Well, I am really sucking at posting everyday! Whenever  I go to blog, I can't think of anything to blog about. Ugh! ;)

So today we got out of school early, which was awesome. I love short days. That also meant that I didn't have 6th period, so no espanol! ;)

I just learned how to do a 3 and 4 way on my phone! Finally. ;) I just got off with My friend, her boy friend, and one of my guy friends. Awesome, right? ;)

Welp, I'll post more tomorrow, (Maybe something interesting will happen. ;)

Hello!

So I can't believe it's already December! I just woke up this morning and realized it's already the 3rd! :( Ugh. Well, We go our tree up. And the rest of the house has been ChristmasIzed! ;)

Isn't it pretty? ;) Sorry it's sideways, but I didn't feel like rotating it. :\

The red thing at the bottom is really an old bridesmade dress... Who knew, right?

One of my friends might be coming over today, so that'll be fun. Maybe we'll go rent some movies and buy some popcorn, and paint our nails and gossip, and talk about boys. I should be a girl every now and then, right? ;)

Hello!

So yes, my week free of school and all the drama that comes with it (as does the homework), It has come to an end. :(

Part of me's like, NO!! And the other, It's not that bad... So it's like this constant back and forth battle.

Wellp, I guess I'll just go salvage what's left of my Sunday. And maybe watch some 24... ;)

Hello!

So I didn't attend the Shopping frenzy last night. (Sorry, but I love my sleep too much.) ;) I wanted too, but my sis and I had enough fun watching it on GMA and The Early Show. There was people freaking spraying eachother with pepper spray and body slamming eachother! It's crazy!

Oh what people will do for half price sales and 15% off. ;)

Well, I'm gonna get back to my day of doing nothing and going nowhere... (Don't get to jealous!;)

Day 94/95/96/97/98/99/100- It's been a long week.

Hello!

It's been a while, but so has my week! I got this past week off from school, so that part was nice. ;) But I've had family over since Saturday, so yes, it's been crazy!
But it's been fun. Everyones leaving tomorrow, so I'm looking forward to day for GRACE. I've
been missing the past couple eppisodes of the office, though... I've got some catching up to do.

Well, Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Usually I hate family get togehers and everything but today wasn't bad. Yes my social anxiety was kicking in not even thre days before, but I made it, right? ;) One of my cousins that I hadn't talked to in a while was there, so that was cool.

Shes barely a few yrs older than me, so I can remember us playing dolls together! Now shes got a kid. Funny how time flies, and people change... So fast.

The rest of the day was mostly small talk and stuffing. Oh, and lots of turkey. ;)

Intersting, right? Hah.

No quote today...

Day 92/93- Thanks-for-the-break... ;)

Evening bloggers!

Like my play on Thanksgiving break? Corny? Tooshay. ;)

Anyhoo, so today was actually really good! I know I don't have many days where I can say this, but it really has been. Partially because I passed my math quiz I was sweating about.. Heck yes, baby!

There was a new chick today in one of my classes. She seemed nice and all the guys were going crazy over her! ;) She was really pretty. Anyway, the reason why I brought it up, is because, I think it would be awesome to be "The new girl". At a new school, with an awesome opportunity to just, start over completely, you know?

I mean I've never moved before, (At least not while in school), I've just been in the same small town with some of the same people from grade school. (Almost) everybody knows who you are, and you know them, along with all the cloudy skies in their past. But, hey, we all have em'.

It's not that I don't like where I am in my (small town) socicial society, I just think it would be fun, Different. ;)

But, I know most people that move a lot HATE moving. But, I guess we all want what we don't have. ;)

So just for the heck of it, I thought I would post some of the things I use to style hair, makeup, day-to-day stuff like that. I have EXTREMELY curly hair, (like in my profile picture), so what I do for the CURLS, maaaaaay not work for you, but, it just might. :)

Straight hair? Oh, yes, curly girls like mwa, It is too possible. ;)

Pantene Pro-V Curly Hair series Curly TO Straight Shampoo and Conditioner.

I LOVE Pantene! It is the only brand that works SO freaking good! I know they say it's made with floor wax and it's bad for your hair or whatever, but they're lying! I've been using it since like what, the 6th grade? And I always get told how soft and shiny my hair is! You HAVE to try it! Also, If you dont have Thick Curly Hair, like me, they have a shampoo and conditioner for like every single hair type, so there's something for everyone!

(Great for straightening hair)

 Pantene Pro-V Medium thick Dry to Moisturized Shampoo and Conditioner

I've also used Breakage to strength. They're ALL amazing! (P.S. They do exactly what their labeled)

(Great for curling hair or straightening it)

 Some of my eyeshadows...

(The ones I use most often)

• Maybelline Eye Studio Quad- Give me Gold
• Maybelline Eye Studio Quad- Green with envy
• Claires- (Colorful Eye Palette?)
• GrowLucius Mascara- Loreal

Pantene Pro-V Medium Thick Straighten and Smooth Straightening cream

 

TRESemme 24 hour body foaming mousse, (Good for scrunching up your curls, or drying you hair straight)

^My hair straight...

^My hair curly...

When I curl my hair...

After washing my hair, I'll use the mousse (As listed above), Scrunching it with a towel. This prevents frizziness. Then I'll bend my head over and blowdry my roots, Adding volume and such... Then I'll wait about 30- 45 minutes letting it air-dry, before going back to the blow-dryer (On the lowest setting). Then you can either touch it up a bit with a curler or just let it go. Enjoy!

When I straighten my hair...

After washing my hair, I use the Straightening cream, (As lised above) And apply it my hair starting at the ends and working my wasy up. (Only use like a palm full). Then, I'll blowdry straight with a paddle brush. Lastly, I'll divide my hair into sections, and then starighten with a straightener.

Enjoy!

Okay, Folks. That's probably the longest post I've ever done. ;) Be back tomorrow!

Day 91- Well, hello Chrristmas.

Hello!

Can you believe Christmas is like a month away? It just sneaked up on us. All the commercials and stores stocked up with Christmas cards and decorations... And Thanksgiving, they do realize we haven't had Thanksgiving yet, right? ;)

Well, I missed Spanish yesterday, which was awesome. But it meant I had to actually work today. :\ Ugh.

Yo hablo espanol, pero no mi gusta.

We had tornado warnings all day today. One of the guys that live across the street from me said that it had hit our neighborhood... So I texted my sister and of course, she was fine.  I don't know, I just don't get scared easily with that stuff. I mean I know the warning's the real thing amd the watch isn't... (Or is it the other way around?), but I don't know. I guess I'm just so used to false alarms and such I'm kindof burned out.

It starting to rain again. Oh, how I love you crazy weather! :)
Well, logging out...

Day 83/84/85/86/87/88- AWOL.

Hello.

Wow, I've missed A LOT. Well, I guess I can start by recapping everything for Day 83 to Day 88.

Day 83- Tuesday, School, nothing much else...
Day 84- Wednesday, Once again, school, nothing much else...
Day 85- Thursday, Can you guess? School... Nothing much else.
Day 86- Friday, School, started to feel sick...
Day 87- Saturday, Felt more sick, went to the movies anyway with a friend.
Day 88- Sick. At home, hooray. ;)

Welp, as you can see you haven't missed much. But honestly it's hard for me to remember what I ate last night much less what happened the rest of last week. ;) But @ the movies yesterday was really fun. We saw "In Time" with Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried. SyFy's not really my fave thing but, it was the only movie out that seemed the least bit "Interesting".

It was pretty good, though. If you like those kinds of "futuristic" movies than it was awesome.

I'm gonna finish watching my new favorite show 24. Yeah it was cancelled after 8 seasons a few years ago but I've been watching it on Netflix... It's SO good!

I love you Keifer! ;)

Day 81- Long story short, the end.

Hello!

So my day started out prettttty funny...
One of my guy friends bleached the top of his hair- You should've seen it! I'll have to sneak a pic tomorrow to show you guys... It looks so freaking funny! ;) I'm so mean, aren't I? ;)

It's bad...

But it was finally something for me to make fun of, you know? He's one of those guys, that pretty much "got it all", Ergo, there's not much to get him back with. So I've been thinking of all kinds of different smart A comments to give him for the next couple days. Mwahahaha... ;)

Anyhoo, in 5th period, we had to go to a different classroom. -But apparantly the reason why, was because our original room is like infested with mice or something.. HA! I'm sorry but I can just see her jumping on her chair as a mouse darts across the room.

So yesterday I made these brownies for my mom to take to church or whatever, (I guess no one learns that I DON'T like to and I CAN'T cook.) Even reading it from the back of the box I till managed to screw it up. She didn't end up taking them, and they stayed home with my sis and I. ;) Whoops. Bummer. ;)

Hello bloggers!

So I did my nails the other day, they turned out GREAT! I did french tips, which is usually hard, right? I mean I can't believe they turned out this great, I just had to blog about it.

I would post a pic but I can't find my camera. :\

Until next time,

Day 79- And yet, another Friday.

Hello!

It's Friday, the only day of the week I'm ever sure about. (Usually I'm like, it's Wednesday? Since when? Or, Tuesday? I thought it was Wednesday?)

Anyways, I don't really feel like posting that much today, (Sorry guys).

Hello!

So I dodged Chorus again today... I keep trying to drop out without hurting the teacher's feelings, but her, "Just come whenever you can" Or, "I understand, you can still participate"'s make it SO hard! I know she's trying to be nice, but really,( I just hate her class.) Since I've already expressed me reasons in past posts, I'll spare you all. ;)

I got a 93 on my oral presentation in spanish! Heck yeah!
iEsta muchacha blanco habla en espanol!

I just said, "This white girl speaks spanish" In spanish! How awesome am I? ;) Mucho!

Day 77- Lovely. Just, lovely. :)

Hello, big wide world!

My day started pretty crappy, but on the bright side, it DID get better. :)

So in first period, Ms. B to the Otch teacher of mine made me move my seat. Then, after I moved and after I added a hightened sense of "Happy to do so" She started nagging on the guy sitting next to me who I was talking to. We were working, witch! It's not Halloween anymore, you can take off the cosume and stop the acting. <---Sorry, cheesey, but I couldn't help it. ;)
Did I metion, before class started, she yelled at me to put my phone away... It's called checking the time! Okay, I know I probably seem alittle cocky but really, It looked like she was just looking for something to pin me down for. Out of all the things she could've been doing, she spends her time, Yelling at me?

Why? I don't have a problem with you. You're a great teacher, so, What the- Oh, goodness. I'm not going to bother with it anymore. :) She's probably just having a sucky day, and at least I didn't let it effect mine.

Also, I broke her pencil. :)

On-to the bright side...
I have a feeling I did awesome on my oral presentation in Espanol. Woot! Woot!
:) I suck at memorizing things so quick, but I did it! Heck yeah!

With all sucky days, It's important to remember that they DO end, and they DO get better... Right? :)

Day 75/ 76- And then there's some...

Hello!

Does it ever feel like the holidays are just being rushed through, by stores and Walmart catalogs? I mean really, Yesterday I saw a commercial for Glade air fresheners, "Bringing the holidays alive" Is what it said, as the chic sprayed it around the room and a Christmas tree popped up. Ugh!

I love holidays, really, I do, but I'm so sick of already being tired of it before it even started.

Anyhoo, enough of my worthless ranting. Yesterday I passed out candy to little fairies and superheros then I watched movies for the rest of the night... Fun, right? ;)

Depressing, I know! To be honest, I wanted to cry. :( <Pathetic!  One of my friends came over and I talked to him for a little bit, and he asked me if I wanted to go with him, but I kindof just brushed him off. Then later my sister made me call him to see if he still wanted to hang out and he said he couldn't. He gave me a reason but I don't remember.

Ugh! I could kick myself. It seems like I've just gotten so used to being miserable inside and used to hiding it I don't want to let it go.
I've got to get out of this though. I have to stop being like this.
Maybe I'll go see a movie this weekend or something. I'm not gonna be a loner for the next 4 years.

Hello!

So it seems that almost every blogger in the whole wide world has already beat me to posting about the great holiday. Can you guess?

HALLOWEEN!

Ding, Ding! You're definatley a winner. ;) I personally LOVE Halloween. It's only the most wonderful time of the year! Free candy for the little ones, (and some for those who refuse to give up the all American right to Trick'r Treat, Kudos to y'all!) Wild partying for the legal drinkers and some for the lucky illegals... ;) But for all,

Happy Halloween!
