Fashion Weekend: Long skirts and weird smiles.

I have loved none but you. You alone have brought me to Bath. For you alone I think and plan. Have you not seen this?  Miss Elliot, I can bear this no longer. You pierce my soul. I'm half agony, half hope. Unjust I may have been. Weak and resentful I have been, but never inconstant. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it eight years ago.

10 Day You Challenge: Seven Wants.

It's TUESDAY again!  

*(Small Dance)* 

I was sitting at Applebee's yesterday with a couple of my friends and we were talking about blogging. You may know Cindy and Sarah. (if you don't, check 'em out) 

Anyways,
I was telling them how much I love Tuesdays and how this week it was seven wants. I'm very excited, I think I've been thinking about it all morning!

Seven

To be healthy. I've been sick for about a little over a week. And its driving me nuts. Stuffy nose, ear aches, sneezing, itchy eyes and headaches! I think this is my biggest want at the moment. 

Six

These shoes.

Five

a tour of England.

Four

I wouldn't mind this kind of body

Three

Clear skin. I've been dealing with breakouts lately and its crazy. I mean I'm 22 years old, isn't this teenage problems? 

Two

Singing lessons. I am now part of my church choir and we sing but I feel as if I'm the weakest link.

I can hold a tune, but I still have a lot to learn.

One

A piece of cake. I mean, a good piece of cake! 

Have a happy week everyone! 

Hairstyle: SockBun

I've got a sinus infection. 
I pretty much feel as if I'm going to die.
Your probably thinking I'm exaggerating but its just so hard to function correctly when your brain is constantly screaming at you for allowing it to hurt as much as it does. 

Anyways,
I don't have an outfit for this week yet, but I wanted to post videos of a hairdo I did last week I believe.
I love sock buns. 

I hope you enjoy!

Pay 'em a visit please :) 

I'm a pretty big fan of buns! So here's another day where I wore a bun without a the help of a sock bun.
I do like the structure that a sock bun adds. But sometimes I like to vary it up. 

Happy Thursday!

10 Day You Challenge: Eight Fears

Eight Fears

Before I start I just wanted to say how much I look forward to Tuesdays. Is that weird? 

I'm always so excited to see what people will write as their answers. Is that weird?
Anyways, I just like Tuesday.
Although today I had an exam, and I didn't realize it.
He changed our normal Thursday to Tuesday this week for personal reasons and in my head I thought I had a couple days to go over my notes. I was wrong.
So, I'm just going to hope for the best. I didn't feel totally stupid. So that's okay right?

Eight

Snakes. I don't know when I developed this fear. I've never been attacked by a snake or even encountered one that was on the loose and wild and venomous.I can't even watch them on TV or see them at the zoo. I think they are ugly. They don't have legs or eyelids.

 ItsSsSs just wrong. 

Seven

Falling. I don't like roller coasters for this particular little detail. Whose idea was it that dropping at high speeds was fun? I can do heights, just not the dropping.
Although, I do want to skydive at some point in my life.

Six

Losing my family. It would be like losing my life. 

Five

Dying in a car accident.
I had myself convinced for the longest time that this was the way I was going to die. I got into a car accident on the highway when I was 16. Rolling and crashing in barricades and landing in a ditch are not my thing. Which is probably why I despise driving.
I also think I'm going to get run into when I drive to school on the highway EVERYDAY.
Good thing I trust in the Lord.

Four

Not being successful at something in my life. I want to achieve success at something I love.

Three

This fear probably comes from watching criminal minds or something related to that. I hate walking alone to my car in the middle of the night. Its crazy I know. But when I have to, I run. 

Two 
That I'll  be alone forever. This comes and goes depending on the day and how I'm feeling. Sometimes being alone is what I want, and sometimes I want someone. Its an odd thing. 

One 
That I won't represent God in the way that I want. I want to represent love, hope and faith by how I look, speak and act. I fear that I'll let the worst of me come out and shine more then the best of me. But I can DO all things through Christ.  

10 Day You Challenge: 9 Loves.

“Tis better to have loved and lost

                              Than never to have loved at all.” 

One.
God.
I love Him. 

 

 Two.
Cake AND ice cream. Your probably thinking that's two things. But here's the deal. I love them equally. I can't decided which one is better because there both awesome. I mean, don't make me choose! DON'T! 

                                        Three.

                                        A good country song.

Four.

Sunglasses.
I have this sort of obsession with sunglasses! Maybe cause I drive so often I realize how important they are. And they come in so many different shapes, sizes, colors and designs. You can express yourself through your sunglasses!

Five. 

Superhero TV shows and movies.
Like, is there a reason why all superheros are hot and muscular?
All I'm saying is I love the view, the story lines and all the nerd people you watch them with.
Love!

 



Six.
Shoes.
You can gain weight, lose weight... get taller, shrink if you truly like.
They will probably almost always fit you!

                                                    Seven. 

A good book on a rainy day. (or any day)

There is nothing like investing time into a story that is so much more exciting and meaningful then your real life. 

 

                                                       Eight.

Sweaters.

I love summer time. But sweaters are my absolute favorite. Comfortable and warm!

                                                                              

Nine.

Zumba.
Who says running the way to go?
All I'm saying it doesn't matter if you can't dance, its still fun!

All the girls want...

pretty clothes, pretty bodies and handsome boyfriends.

And all I want to do is eat.

Is something wrong?

(Just because its funny)

I’ve probably tried to lose weight like 20 times in the last 10 years.
I’ve probably tried 5 different diets, 7 different workout routines and plain old running till my legs fall off.
I’ve given up and started up again.

I have this weak spot for ice cream and cakes.

I’ve tried to convince myself that it’s for health and sometimes to give myself a boost of confidence.
I’ve tried to do it out of revenge because of a broken heart.
I’ve tried to do it to gain a boyfriend with my new physique.
I’ve tried to do it out of anger, sadness and loneliness.
I’ve tried…

I have this weak spot for ice caps and burger and fries.

I’ve decided that I’m just going to be fluffy and satisfied.
But I walk into a mall or my favourite store…
and the clothes don’t fit right.
so I’ve tried to do for clothes.

I have this weak spot for chocolate bars and donuts.

So what does one do when you've tried and tried?

 you try, try, try again! So todays goal: do something active. and have fun while doing it!
who said it couldn't be fun?

I wish someone would say:

Wish me luck would ya?
