And now I can be here daily! I was gifted with a Droid Razor Maxx HD for Christmas and I got the blogger app on my phone! My computer is still out of memory and isn't fixed yet so this will have to do- so today I have a picture of some inspirational books that sit on my bedside table! The Lauren Conrad Beauty book I got for this past Christmas and the others I had ordered from Amazon.
Hope you have a wonderful day!

Being Thankful

I'm excited for this Christmas and December in General! I have so much more to be thankful for this holiday season and I love this time of year were being happy and Thankful definitely is in the air! So my big thing I am thankful for (besides my family of course) just so happens to be my acceptance to my #1 college of choice! :D And this past friday my mother and I put my deposit for my position in the Class of 2017 in the Post Office Box- so I am OFFICIALLY accepted to and have a place in COLLEGE! So I will be majoring in Fashion Merchandising and Possibly minoring in english- I love english and excel in it so I believe it will be the perfect addition to my love of fashion and words. I am SO excited! And I simply want to be at college already- I am ready to move on with my life to bigger and better things! My college is near a city so shopping and the perfect thrift shops will be amazing! And i'm looking forward to the Independence and simply the experience!

What are some things you are thankful for?

XOXO

Thanksgiving was wonderful

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday filled with lots of family and laughter. We celebrated with another family of 4 that we consider part of our own. It was so wonderful, and afterwords the 4 of us 'Kids' watched Toy Story and Toy Story 2. It was like de ja' vu because we have not spent time together like that in a long time. We laughed so much and noticed things in the movies that you wouldnt really notice until you were older. It was quite amusing!

Dinner was amazing, I dont eat meat or chicken though so I didnt eat any of the smoked turkey but everything else was definitely so amazing:) mashed potatos, pineapple 'gloop' (pineapples with crushed ritz crackers, honey and some butter hehe it was amazing), green beans, stuffing, creasant roles and much much more :)

I played it simple with what I wore to dinner last night- I wore dark jeans, a charcoal grey v-neck shirt, with a dark purple circle scarf, pretty dangley heart earrings, and my hair curled. I really liked the outfit hehe:)

After everyone left my sister and I went upstairs to my room and played with my different lipstick samples from AVON, and I ended up creating a beautiful winter look that was so simple but so very pretty perfect for the winter months and also what I am wearing tonight when I go iceskating with my friends!! (cant wait for that!), I took pictures which i will put up soon (I need more memory on my computer first before I can download any more pictures: which stinks but hopefully it will be fixed soon). I also took pictures of how I did my hair for Thanksgiving as well, step by step, it didnt turn out as well as i thought it would but it was a different curling iron than the one I normally use (curling wand) and because the curling wand gets hotter faster and you dont have to hold it as long, I go impatient quickly haha.

OH! Also at my last hair cut appointment 2 weeks ago I ended up having my hair stylist cut bangs for me! I reallly like them and everyone else does too, i've been gettting lots of compliments on my hair recently its kinda funnny haha. OHHH!! Bigger news, every year for the Seniors in the year book we do a 'Who's Who' for ex. best hair, best smile, best laugh... things like that. And I'm sure you will love what i ended up getting..... BEST DRESSED!!!!!!!!:) I'm sure you can imagine how excited I was and still definitely Am! :)

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and stay safe driving to and fro :)

I've got some exciting news!

So a few days ago I got my senior pictures done-

and it had a interesting ending...

For the one shot I sat on a vintage trunk in the middle of a back road. the back round(trees fence ect) was absolutely GORGEOUS&real!

So my photographer kept saying how easy I was to photograph and then she took some pictures of me sitting on the trunk and asked me a question...

"Do you want to model?"

you can imagine what went through my brain.

"really?!"

"Yeah! I need a jewelry model for some pictures of jewelry that I am taking and I think you would be perfect!"

And then She also tells me she wants to do photoshoots with models and wants me to do that as well... and That I would be the advertisement for that project!!!!!!

I am so excited! People tell me alot I should model.... and well... Im going to get to!!!

Just thought I should share with you all:)

I'll post pictures when we take them! It wont be till more late fall/winter till we take them- but it's something to definitely look forward too!!

XOXO
