Fashion!

First off, concerning that diet I started? I was doing pretty good, but I've gained all the weight thanks to entering a little bit of an emotional slump. Ah well. Try and try again, I suppose.

Secondly, my mother has bought me Seventeen magazine, saying that I was 'old enough to fully enjoy it.' And it's fine, I suppose. I don't mind reading about the newest trends and all, it's fun to fit them to my personality and such. However, some of what I've seen frankly disgusts me. Come on, must we wear tiny shirts that show off our belly buttons? Yes, I know, this trend has been going on for a very, very long time, but still. Can we please have some modesty here? If you want to wear the shirts, fine, that's cool. But..can we wear a cami underneath? Please? I don't want to look everywhere and see belly button, even if it does have the cutest little belly button ring. We're entering the holiday season, show some modesty for Pete's sake! Save the rest of that for spring/summer when you won't freeze your belly button ring off.

I do, however, LOVE the new shoes. High heels, although not the most practical thing in the world, are very chic, and they make my short little legs sing to the high heavens. And although stilettos are some of the most sexy and chic high heels that exist, they are not, I repeat are not meant for the winter months, unless you live down by the equator. Ice+super thin high heels= very painful fall. Be smart, ladies (and some men.) I would recommend a shoe with a thicker heel (think square. I found some pretty cute and sturdy high heeled gray shoes with a thick, square heel.) Boots are fine, if they have a little bit of a heel. Skinny heels can be tried at your own risk.

I'm loving the brighter color themes, and Lady Gaga's head-to-toe houndstooth outfit (I saw it in the December/January issue of Seventeen, and fell in love with it). Also: Katy Perry, although quite slutty, your ideas are amazing. Try lengthening those skirts. Emma Watson's Harry Potter premiere dress was very fairy like, but try adding some new colors besides gray! Yes, it looked fabulous, but adding in some hints of periwinkle and lavender would add to the fairy idea.

However, despite my out-of-character fashion talk, I still think whatever you want is the next fashion. Fashion is something that comes and goes. Finding your own statement is the only way you can really stay in style. :)

Some pointers for my fellow "My style is mixing styles", thrift stores are your best friends in times like these. Oh, sure, you could always go to high end fashion stores and find something that's totally unique and drop 50 bucks on a skirt. Or..you could go to the thrift store, find a cheap skirt that even more unique because most often it's a little older, and fix it up a little. I've had some great experiences with thrift stores, and most of my one-of-a-kind skirts/shirts/Winnie The Pooh Overalls (oh yes) are from a thrift store. Plus, a skirt is like..5 bucks. How can you argue with that?

Another thing for those who just aren't thrift store people, go to your favorite store, and skip the new styles. Fashion doesn't last. Go straight to the sale racks and see what you can find. Don't be ashamed to reduce, reuse,and recycle! Add an old pin to that out-of-style skirt, maybe take away/add some new things to the bottom, and blam! You just might have the newest fashion statement. Experiment!

Makeup is timeless. Find something that accents your face. Certain colors will make you look like a clown, and that's fine if that's what you wanted (..personally, clowns scare the living frick out of me, so..yeah). It's totally cool to experiment with makeup until you find what you like, and what suits your style.

And my last fashion tip? Comfortable clothing is key. While those tight jeans and shirts may make you look like you just came off the runway, if it's not comfortable, it's not worth it. Women back in the Victorian era wore tight as frick corsets, and you know what? They fainted. If it's too tight, don't wear it. Simpler than pie.

Mm..pie..

An Obvious Fact

As the terror that I am unfortunately forced to call my older brother continues to point out, I have no life. And yeah, that's true. I don't have a life. I don't go outside, I don't hang out with my friends, and I don't go to the mall or anything, like a normal teenager does. Plus, I talk to the same couple of people everyday.

But I'm happy with that. I don't want to go to crazy parties or anything like that. It's just not me.

And that's what he can't seem to get. And so, I'm forced to listen to him rant on and on and on about how I'm a fatty who has no life and no friends and is never going to make it in the world.

And the funny thing is, he's a nobody himself! He's just managed to convince himself that he's "cool" or "popular" when everyone knows he's too much of a sexist jerk for anyone to be able to like him. He thinks he's like..God's gift to the world, when I know for a fact there are a good amount of people (myself included) who would willingly line up to get a chance to punch him in the face.


It's called delusions of grandeur. It's a serious problem. Seek help. XD

Happy Veteran's Day!

Heyy, guys~

Yeah, I know I said previously that I'd be updating this old thing more often, but..yeah. (I lost my goal of pounds for October, so that's good, right?)

Aaanyhoozles, so today is Veteran's day. Schools had the day off and all, and I'm just writing this to say thanks to all those Veterans out there who aren't reading my blog.

*shrug* hey, I know this is here. that's all that matters, right? XD

Let's get physical~!!

Heyo~! So, as many of you may have assumed and/or already know, I'm on the fatter side of life, and last night whilst I was washing my hair, I decided on something.

Starting next month, I will be on a 8 month diet. This means I will be doing my best to eat healthy, exercise, etc. Each month, I will be shooting for dropping at least 5 lbs, which I'm hoping is do able. I'll probably be updating my blog at the end of each week until May 1st, with my weight at the beginning of the week and my weight at the end. That way, I'll be able to keep track of my weight, and I'm hoping that putting a record of my fatness in a blog will motivate me to work harder to lose weight.

This is actually a pretty big step for me, because I've been trying to lose weight for a while now, but I've always given up halfway through. I'm hoping that by setting some sort of goal and time to lose it by, it'll make it easier for me to actually succeed this time. Besides, by planning it out now, I might be able to look semi-nice during the summer, and with the temperatures starting to cool off to where it's a little more tolerable to actually get outside and do physical activity.

As a part of this diet blogging, I'm also going to be making a play list of good songs to work out, and I'll be posting results of my research that I'll be doing in order to find good recipes, work out routines, etc. Hopefully, if anyone who reads this who actually needs to lose weight, they'll be able to join me on my little 8 month journey! Wish me luck!

Oh sweet baby rays..

(a.k.a: Jeez louise, boys, I know I'm sexy but lay off please.)


Alright, let's start off with saying that I am a freshman. This puts me between a 12-15 year age range, making me fairly young.

Therefore, wouldn't you think it a little odd that a senior would ask me out 3 weeks after I met him?

Me too.


He asked me last night on facebook, so it was awkward, but not nearly as awkward as it could have been, had he asked me face to face. Personally, I thought I turned him down semi-well. No, I didn't just say 'No, I'm not going out.'

Did I possibly give him false hope? Maybe. I do like him after all, but it is not my intention to string him along. However, he supposedly understood that I was not interested in a relationship at the moment. He even said there were no hurt feelings, so I was feeling pretty good that I'd done a good job with my first refusal of a relationship.


..Until he said something about me being his woman. Now, I can understand that a large part of this is probably my fault, seeing as I did not give him a definite no. That is a boo boo on my part, and I completely admit to this. But, if you say 'Oh, no I understand, no hurt feelings!' One would think that you get the fact that the other person is not interested in being your woman at the moment. Just a thought, ya know. *shrug* maybe not.

On a completely different note, HOLY CRAP I POSTED TWO BLOGS WITHIN TWO DAYS OF EACH OTHER. KEEP A FIRE EXTINGUISHER NEAR BY IN CASE OF SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION.

I'm not a very good blogger am I..

Looking at the amount of blogs, I must say I'm not exactly the best at blogging..
My last one was August 24, which means I am doing slightly better in the blogging department since it hasn't yet been an entire month. Therefore, I'm doing fairly well.
..Conveniently ignore that I'm only 3 days away from my monthly limit. :D

Anyhoo, I have not been on in a while because once again, I have started school. Highschool, to be exact.

Let's just say that being a freshman kiinda sucks. It's common knowledge, I suppose.


However, my highschool is huge! It's pretty easy to get lost, man. Waaay too many turns. I'm doing pretty well, though..

As you can probably tell, no, I have NOT installed my tablet yet. However, I have my speakers, and webcam set up now, and I'll be setting up my second monitor so that my desk will look like a ghetto version of the pentagon. I'll feel pretty dang special. I also will be cleaning my room out again  (it's pretty scary. I have no idea where half this crap comes from anymore.) then I'll be looking for a place to put my brother's old stereo so that it will be in range of my bed, normal desk, art desk, AND my half chest of drawers half make up table (without the lights, but not for long. I'll probably start messing around with some circuits and light bulbs to fix that problem). After all that is done, which, knowing me, will take around 2 months, I'll probably get around to setting up my tablet again so that my blogs aren't so boring. After that, it'll be Christmas, and I'll have to clean this room ALL OVER AGAIN.

It's a never ending cycle of cleaning products and large trash bags Q.Q

Epiphany

Now, I know I said I was going to post a blog involving unicorns and a rainbow ninja, however, due to lightning striking my house and ANNIHILATING my freaking computer, I am unable to upload the pictures I drew for the blog, and that kind of blog DEMANDS pictures. Of course, I COULD just install my tablet onto this laptop that is currently serving as a temporary replacement for my dearest Sandra (may she RIP), however, as I've said before, I'm lazy.. Deal with it.

Despite the fact that I could post a blog about the lightning strike and the earthquake that hit my house within two days of each other and the hurricane that is currently heading towards it, I won't be doing that. That can wait. Or..just not happen at all. ..It probably won't happen. Just sayin.

No, today's blog will be on a thought I had whilst taking a poo. After all, I tend to get wonderful epiphanies whilst I am in the process of pooing. It's a quirk.

Now, as many of my friends/family know, I am fat. It shouldn't surprise any of you readers, either, seeing as I have said before that I am lazy, and..well..let's face it, I'm a huge nerd. I can pretty much safely assume that most of you ever so few readers have come to the conclusion that I am a fat lonely teenager who has nothing better to do than draw craptastic pictures to put in her craptastic blog.
And you are completely and totally right.

However, upon looking into the mirror this morning and seeing my fat self in a pair of booty shorts and a mickey tee-shirt I realized that, yes, I am fat, and I could really do well if I lost some weight. But I'm not going to stress out over my weight like some of my other..heavier friends do. Yes, I will diet and try to exercise a little more, but I'm not going to beat myself up over another failed diet. And why should I? After all, isn't life just one big trial and error? Yes, I'll try again, but if I fail at a diet, I'm not going into a big ol depression and start thinking that I'll die fat and alone (even though, yes, I probably will, I have no real problem with that). And in between those failed diets, I won't stare in the mirror and call myself a fatty, like I know some of my friends do, and I myself have done in the past. I will look in the mirror and say "hey, at least I'm huggable.'

Because really, wouldn't you rather hug someone squishy than someone who barely has any fat on them and it kind of bony?
Not that I'm promoting being fat. It's not good for your health. However, I will say this: fat chicks have more fun. Because, after a while, we stop caring how bad we look and we just go for it man.

Because we're just that awesome :)
