Oh, I'm back for more.

Tis a bit nippy noodles...so naturally, I'm not wearing pants. For those who know me well, and, well since I'm telling everybody who reads this blog now, everyone shall know now, but I'm not one to dress for the appropriate weather.

i.e. I wear shorts to bed in the winter and often flannel pj's in the summer. Our house's temperature usually reflects the complimentary season: freezing in the summer, roast-my-buns-warm in the winter. Not complaining, merely explaining there is some method to my madness.

As for not wearing pants....that's just who I am :)

Headband: Claire's (from 7th grade or so); button-up: Old Navy; tank: Old Navy; skirt: Miley Cyrus for Max Azria; booties: Bongo
Awkward hands!



I hate the fact that I must leave so many great jewelry pieces at home whilst I'm studying away at school...  :(  this was a vintage piece given to me by my Nana. She always has the neatest things...and impeccable taste.


Whilst creating a Sim on Sims 3 (to my credit, I haven't played since summer and it's absolutely addicting and I just love, love, love it!), I noticed they have funny profiles...do I have a funny profile?? Perhaps it is because they are animated characters and I am real...is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

Queen popped into my head as I typed that....


I can't emphasize enough how serious I take myself. Obvious by this picture. One of many of my "goof" faces.

I came across this blog whilst reading another blog and I simply love her thoughts and ideas! Yes, yes, I sound corny, but ignore that and take in this quote, located at the bottom of her blog...

Blessed are those who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
 How very, very true....so be a goof, laugh at yourself. You judge yourself the hardest, are the most critical, so you of all people are permitted to have a good laugh...about yourself.

Good way of entertainment...welp, my journal awaits. Quite frankly, writing with a fountain pen is cool. It's pretty great for my handwriting...which is quite pretty, if I do say so myself....

I've rambled on about enough...hahaha :)

Friday the 13th.

I read a brief article about Friday the 13th; did you know people actually suffer from a fear of this day?? It's cleverly called paraskevidekatriaphobia or triskaidekaphobia, literally fear of Friday the 13th. Thought you may be interested in reading about it for shits and giggles so the saying goes.

Wednesday I had forgotten to mention that it was no pants hump day! But no fear, I partook in the celebration nonetheless...and yesterday was cleavage Thursday. Modest cleavage but a bit is just enough for me.


Please excuse the wires.....I always seem to just throw them around and then wonder why they're all tangled around one another. Geek with her gadgets...



Cardi: Forever 21; tank: AE (favorite tank!! soo comfy...); jeans: Royal Bones (Hot Topic); shoes: thrifted

Vintage necklace from my Nana and the kitty diamond necklace dangling below is Danbury Mint, a graduation necklace from Gramps


I bought myself new sneakers as motivation to workout. No, not as a resolution. Honestly, who keeps those after the first week?? I'm losing my college flab and getting back to my pre-Thanksgiving body.


I woke up early-ish to workout this morning...9 is early for break!
Hello, sexy Curves neoprene shorts. They've never fit on top...and they make me really really sweaty and gross but isn't that the point?

Welcome back, abs! I wasn't really the most fit (hell, I run funny and not very fast) but I always had my abs and that's always something, right??

Also with working out, it's an excuse to wear my new sports bras! I love sports bras because they're comfy and hold everything in when I want to run and such but always a pain to find ones that are functional for my chest...the pretty ones from Old Navy and VS just won't cut it! Champion works wonders for meh.

Leaving you with this fine woman. She's great! And I need to find something to wear....I've half-heartedly been trying to do fancy Friday but it just hasn't taken for me yet...need to get dressed in any case.

Toodles!

Over and Over and Over again...

The rain has begun so it has become a tad bit nippy noodles....layered it up with socks over my tights.


Completely forgot my hair was piled on top of my head. It almost looks greasy in the pic...whoops! It's really just still damp from the shower, I swear!

Cardi: Land's End; dress: find in a small Austrian boutique; belt: vintage; tights: Leggs; socks: Forever 21; bangles: AE and Charlotte Russe

Heels: thrifted
Sweet closet find! Haven't seen (or worn) these in a while...


Decided to paint my nails a different color. I have self-diagnosed nail polish OCD. I hate chips and the like...hence why I used to rarely wear it. So goodbye, sophistocated black creme color, hello Sally Hansen Blue Me Away!


Letting my hair down....I really love the color of my walls and can't help showing them off!


I think I took these with my webcam to show my makeup. I really like the silver eyeliner around my eyes...my eyes are very brown today! They change sometimes...they used to be a really pretty greenish color. Oh, green eyes, you so pwetty! I like my Fajer's eyes. He has soft brown eyes that have almost a purple-y color around the outside...

I'm feeling quite famished now...time to see Mummy about sup ;)

Love, love, love her voice...

Goblins and sunshine

Finished through my marathon...watching the special features of Deathly Hallows Pt 2. I'm watching how the Goblins were all done up...pretty ;D

Kurt and I did a photoshoot today...he's pretty at good taking pics and always photographs really well, too!





My heels kept sticking into the ground...wasn't as frozen as I had thought.


Blazer (worn as dress): vintage; tank: Worthington; belt: vintage; tights: no boundaries; socks: Puma; shoes: Aldo



It became a bit nippy noodles outside...

Leaves sticking to my heel :P



Packing my shoes away into their box...


Sour Patch kids make a great snack...unhealthy, yes. Delish as well.

Continuing to watch special features on DH pt 2...Dan and JK Rowling's convo about the films.

The fact that he's only an inch taller than I is quite strange...I guess it's the cliché that everyone looks taller on screen...I no longer feel so short at 5'4" :)

Sleepy still...in pigtails I feel as though I can get away with a nap at 7pm and eat a brownie. Oh, to be a child again and not give a damn about whether or not food is healthy. Time to relive that tonight with that brownie.

Scourgify!

I've been continuing the Harry Potter movie marathon with myself whilst cleaning my room up...

The walls are all painted and dry so I've been slowly getting things organized once more, attempting to restore order out of the jumble of stuff that occupy my bedroom.

Saturday I went to the movies after painting all day...The Devil Inside was freaky nonetheless but would not recommend it to anyone. Yes, I was a bit disturbed (although I do love a good creepy movie) but the ending was dumb dumb dumb -_-


Waiting for paint to dry behind my wall, hence the step-ladder and fan. I love the color of my room now. What do you think?

Don't mind the mess on my dresser...or in my room in general...slowly putting it back together whilst simultaneously getting rid of things...


Fedora: Target; blue top: AE; black tank: ambiance apparel; jeans: Arizone (first skinnies-from 7th grade!); booties: Forever 21

Testing out my new camera yesterday before heading to the shooting range with my Fajer. I can shoot pretty well for never shooting before :)

Bullseye with the rifle and the 45 and a few hits with the 30 carbine. I didn't do so well with the 22 or 22 magnum...30 carbine has quite a kick and startled me...

I may have found my new hobby.

Off to donate blood soon...threw on my jeans from yesterday, a fresh tank, and a button-down.

I'll be needing some sleep in a few hours....

Feelin' accomplished

Painted half of my room Deep Rhubarb Leaf...so says the paint chip of the color I picked out :P

Tomorrow shall be yet another day of painting....and getting rid of some junk and dust MONSTERS I found lurking under my bed. I abhor cleaning. It grosses me out and makes me feel like such a gross person when I find all the nasty dust.

G-R-oss.

Rockin' the day in blood red Soffe shorts and a white Hanes tee.

Heading out to rent a movie with Kurtis...Chewbacca hat (gift from Kurtis :D ), VS nightie over polka dot jeans from yesterday (my going out today pants) and leopard print flats.

I wear what I want...obviously.

Toodles!

Back!

High-waisted pants from yesterday as promised....


Yes, iTunes is up...jamming to Eminem most likely...I cannot help it; I'm obsessed just a tad.

Shirt: Gap; High-waisted pants(suspenders attached): Forever 21
Xmas prezzie from my Mummy! I picked them out, though...she said they were completely "me." haha imagine that...



I look very much like my Mummy in this one...determination, smarts, and looks.


I like the contrast between my hair....super curls and wavy/straight. Didn't go for pin-straight but this is about natural...except for the needed straightening of the weird flippy sections that only starting flipping after my hair was chopped.

T-shirt: Hanes (men's...super comfy!)

Simple pimple. Polka dots with a plain tee and leopard print open-toe flats and jade necklace...the beautiful necklace was a prezzie from my great-aunt and-uncle who went on a trip to China. I wouldn't want to risk it being stolen or lost at school so it hasn't been out in a while...ugh hate having to leave my nice stuff at home...it most likely feels unloved :(

Dug out a few rings...one thing I may try wearing more of...I have plenty but it simply slips my mind to slip one on.


New Steve Madden flats! My gold ones are falling apart...they received too much love (is there such a thing?!) and are a bit smelly and have been waterlogged countless times because I insisted on wearing them despite heavy rains...meh.

Sleepy time....

So Close...

Title of song currently playing...So Close by Jon Mclaughlin....

Off to another home wreslting match. I look über cute if I do say so myself...which I do...ha ha good one!

I'm feeling well today (and more importantly, good about myself!) despite being ill this morning :(  Reading Theo the Kindle and enjoying a heating pad on my ever-increasingly kaputt back for a few hours certainly made me feel much better!

Now I must be off...pics when I return of yesterday's outfit as well as tonight's. I dug out my high-waisted pants yesterday! .........after I found them. I put them on to go shopping wif my Mummy, changed, threw them somewhere, and went on an intense hunt for them yesterday.

They felt my wrath.

And other good news before I go...I've lost 8 lbs since being home and quite proud of myself.

Hobey ho, let's go Bisons!

Suit up, men.

It may not yet be no pants Wednesday...but since when has that (or the weather) stopped me?

Button-down: Old Navy; Belt: Forever 21; Skirt: Nollie; Bracelet: Salisbury Pewter


Close-up on my Betsey Johnson tights...aren't the hearts cute?

Wet n Wild Blue Moon and Black Creme (on ring finger)
Feeling girly...painted my nails yesterday with the random one a different color. Break the rules: mix blue with black!

Le grrr....annoyance about painting nails: those ridges that appear from sleeping even though you especially make sure it's hours before bedtime.

Oh well...nail OCD hasn't kicked in yet. Just surprised I kept most of the color on my nails and off my skin :)

Off to a wrestling match! Boy, I miss all the excitement of weighing in and getting ready for the mat...

Go Bisons!

clean up your act.

Spent part of today cleaning my room some more....it's not that is that dirty; it is simply in great need of organization and purging of junk and/or things for which I no longer have need.

For such acts....simple day in a white men's tee and jeans for errands.


For some reason, Mummy gave me a nonplussed look when asking about my cleaning....I pretty much cleared my dresser off, getting rid of some of the junk accumulating upon it, but I chose not to dust. Silly Mummy...she should know by now I absolutely abhor dusting.

It grosses me out.

I was already a bit freaked out by the dustbunnies and cobwebs under my bed...


Made some Apfel Kuchen (apple cake) with my Mummy today and twas delish! That was pretty much supper...by the time supper came about, my belly was quite full and content.

Have some new music to jam to, courtesy of Lovely.

Nursing a bellyache atm so bedtime shall swift be approaching...

But enjoy this pretty song:

First day of the New Year...

Slept through most of today....i was just too darn tired to wake up at a decent hour. But 2pm is morning elsewhere in the world.

Striped top: AE; sequin hot pants: Strawberry; diamond patterned tights: Betsey Johnson

Getting all dolled up for the party....


Naturally pulling weird faces and poses....i simply could not contain myself.


Sleep is goooood....came home, showered, and helped my Mummy clean a bit before cleaning in my own room. I finally found a place for almost all of my shoe boxes! Key word: almost...Colin Stuart over-the-knee boots and 5" Aldo booties shall have to stay out...perhaps behind Cardboard Edward.


I wore my leopard print booties last night as well. I felt so BA although they aren't heels. Dang you, college; you have me wearing "sensibly" heeled shoes. 

A hat find in my closet
 This hat wasn't as nice as the ones with giant bows which my Mummy would make my sister and I wear when we were little...but I think it looks neat even sans bows and frills.


Shirt: AE; sports bra: Champion (logo visible from flash); my favorite leggings: Aerie; booties: Forever 21
Threw this on for a comfy day...I had planned on cleaning out my room a little more. What remains on my bed is the last bit of things to be picked up/put away, etc.

Time for a facemask and the end of Prisoner of Azkaban...I've been on an HP movie marathon.

HNY

Hot Noisy Yeti.



Just kidding.

Happy New Year!



I'm sad Ted won't be where I'm going.

Perhaps the cutie above will meet me...he'll be attracted to my shiny sequin shorts and laughing, which he shall mistake for a mating call.

Heading out now....have a lovel-E night and enjoy your bubbly as the clock tolls, setting it down for a celebratory kiss at 12.
