I absolutely love Diane von Furstenberg's Fall 2009 collection.

currently, i'm enjoying the photography of irving penn. check it out.

these two are my favorites.

I haven't updated this in an extremely long time, but I thought it would be fun to re-visit it.
My current obsessions are my new vintage frye boots. A good pair of boots is a necessity. But, my summer must-haves are currently tunics with cycling shorts, white loafers, high-waisted skirts and shorts, and my mustard colored oversized bag.

Little Miss Sunshine is my new favorite movie.
The Poisonwood Bible is my new favorite book.

My mom finally took me out driving. I own left turns, but I can't seem to stay in my lane for the rights. And when I tried a three point turn, I almost hit a tree. I think I'm improving. I actually drove on a street today and I didn't hit a single thing. (and, I had the potential to hit at least 10 cars) Now, I am going to watch Warped Wednesday on fuse. I really hope I can go to Warped Tour this year. I have been looking forward to it since last august.

i got my SAT scores today. i improved 70 points. my goal was 50, so i'm really happy. maybe my future is not doomed for failure afterall.

and i've been really good about working out everyday. i want to become fit for senior year...and driver's ed. i'm also trying to get some sort of a tan, because the ghost look just isn't working.

now i need to go to work with my mom, but i think we're getting tim hortons.

i lost my permit. ughh. i spent five hours searching my entire room, but i couldn't find it. now i have to go the dmv and order a replacement. also, i think i failed my english regents. i take frickin ap lang and comp and i think i failed a regents exam. i am pathetic.

i'm happy it's summer. my mother has agreed to take me to Project Revolution. as much as i loathe Linkin Park, HIM and the other disgusting bands who will be there, My Chemical Romance and Taking Back Sunday are my all time favorite bands.

my chemical romance = love

on friday, we went to the mcr show. it was seriously the best show ever. those guys are amazing and i love them. then, on saturday, my mother, aunt and i went shopping in toronto. i got new shows and we went to h&m. it was pretty cool.
oh. and aps are over. thank god. that chemistry was killer.

great trench from h&m.

pushing down.
falling apart.
unable to think.
unable to breath.
where did the time go.
where did my life go.

i have the stupid SATs on saturday,
an hour long spanish project due tuesday,
ap american on the 11th,
ap chem on the 15th
and ap lang/comp on the 16th.
i'm not prepared for one of them.
because of my grandfather and mock trial,
i have had no life for the past 4 months.

Sun, 29 Apr 2007 23:25:12 GMT

so, i realized that i haven't updated in almost a month. my life is just so uneventful. and i'm basically writing this post just for the hell of it.

i have decided to put some effort into school. i really want the 4th quarter to be a good one. and, i'd really like to get some high marks on my three aps.

I used to be so original.

I used to care, I was being careful.

Made sure I showed it to those that I love.

I used to sleep without a single stir.

i can't shake my obession with bright eyes.
i can't stopped playing digital ash in a digital urn.
however, i have also recently become obsessed with say hi to your mom, and some by sea.
weird.
79 days until i get to see My Chem.
oh yeah.

i am procrastinating, because i have an ap chem test i need to study for.
ewwww.
i hate that man.
i also need to read something for english.

sajghjkadhg. fuck it.

I am super excited. My mother is going to take me to see My Chemical Romance in Toronto on May 11th. I can't wait. My Chem is my favorite band. People give them shit, but they really are an amazing band. No one takes time to listen them and appreciate the music they're are making. Whatever. I was supposed to see them in September, but they had to cancel because Bob had to go to hospital. It was tragic. I actually cried. So, now I am even more excited, because I haven't seen them in so long. I love Gerard, Mikey, Bob, Ray, and especially Frankie. oh, this is going to be sweet. Oh, and I forgot...MUSE is opening for them. I know, could it get any better. well, maybe if Taking Back Sunday was opening...but how much can I ask for.

I'm basically obsessed with all the new fall collections. My current favorite designer: Chloé

4.3.07 - the new Academy Is album comes out. this will be a most glorious day.

Thu, 08 Feb 2007 02:24:44 GMT

today was a much better day. everything was just better in general. mock trial was not frightening. (and I was alone in the computer lab with brady for an extended period of time)and when I got in the car, my dad told me he bought me the new fall out boy cd and the newest issue of spin (with MY CHEM on the cover) I must admit...I like the new fob album. it's my guilty pleasure and I hope no one will hate me for this (however, I kind of hate myself for it....but for some reason I just love that single ah.) but, spin. that's exciting. anything involving my chem is always exciting. okay. I need to go finish my homework.

Sun, 28 Jan 2007 18:28:07 GMT

Now I do as I please and lie through my teeth
Someone might get hurt, but it won't be me
I should probably feel cheap but I just feel free...
and a little bit empty
No, it isn't so hard to get close to me
There will be no arguments
We will always agree
And I'll try and be kind when I ask you to leave
We'll both take it easy
But if you stay too long inside my memory,
I will trap you in a song tied to a melody
and I will keep you there so you can't bother me

I really want a vintage polaroid camera.

Life's too short and moves way too fast. Sometimes, you just need to stop and enjoy simple things. They might just make you smile and feel a tiny bit better.

I was sick today. I woke up in the middle of the night with pain in the whole front of my body. I couldn't function, it hurt constantly. I could barely move. No matter, because I feel much better now, but I don't actually know what was wrong with me. whatev. Also, I went to the hospital today, around 6 maybe. hmm...not good. My grandfather is not doing well. He slept a lot, and didn't really talk. I couldn't belive it was the same man. It was very sad.

Over the past couple days, I have been thinking about life and my views on certain topics. Why do some people think I'm "immoral" or a "bad person" because of certain ideas I have. I don't care anymore. I'm going to say what I want, because life's too short to bottle up everything and not voice your opinions. So, here we go:

-nothing and no one is perfect
-George W. Bush is a complete moron
-War is stupid
-especially the war in Iraq
-I'm a liberal
-Bill Clinton was one of the best presidents
-and I pray Hillary runs
-because I want to vote for her in 2008
-I'm ProChoice
-stop giving me shit about it
-I totally support gay marraige
-I believe and support ogran donation
-I hate my father
-he can be a complete asshole
-kind of like that George person I mentioned earlier
-I think Che Guevara was a genius
-I adore Bill Mahr
-he is also a genius
-wall mart is the end of all class and dignity in this world
-sweat shops and child labor are inhumane and disgusting
-I don't thing there is anything wrong with premarital sex
-I think the drinking age should be 18
-there are so many more things

It's late and I'm tired. and, I should be studying for my precalc midterm. But, it's math. Do I really need to study? NO. hahah.

Oh, and I forgot. I missed ballroom dancing today. sadness. I wonder how Brian survived without copying all my moves. haha.

I want this Malandrino dress.

Someone told me this is where the party is...

Sun, 14 Jan 2007 01:20:36 GMT

Dressed in a fashion that's fitting to the
Inconsistencies of my moods
It's times like these where silence means everything
And no one is to know about this
It's a campaign of distraction
And revisionist history
But whatever I have been gettin' myself into
Lately has been slicing inches from my waist
It's my fist vs. the bottle
And thank god you weren't there...
And that's how bad could this hurt
.. against I won't feel a thing
It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
It's a shame I doubt they even care
No one has to know about this
Don't let me down

----------------------------------------

In other news....
my official learner's permit came in today. my picture is not disgusting. I'm not my best, but I still think I look cute. Also, I went to the mall with Sean and my mom. I made my mom go into express. She actually bought me a purple sweater dress, a red turtleneck, and a grey top. I am very excited. I also got some dippin dots. That's pretty sweet, I know. And at mock trial, the bradys were nice to me. Everything went really well, and Mrs. Brady was oddly supportive and kind.

I made a decision today.
I'm going to live life to the fullest. No more moping. I love my friends and family. I am going to have some crazy fun. Chyeah.

THERE'S THIS ONE THING THAT I CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT.

(If you couldn't tell, I'm in a tbs kind of mood)

i love this photo of humphrey bogart.

Fri, 12 Jan 2007 01:00:39 GMT

club pictures were today. ballroom dancing certainly gave the best pose. but, spaz started yelling at amanda and i at french club. she almost kicked us BOTH out the picture. whatev.and then at mt, amanda and i kind of worked on my opening. we mainly talked about stupid stufff....

I love this marc jacobs dress.

life.

Thu, 11 Jan 2007 01:57:20 GMT

So, I am finally using my livejournal. I'm sure everyone is super excited.

Yesterday marked the first day of ballroom dancing....with AMANDA. oh, cullen, if only you could have come. Basically, I frickin own. I am like the best dancer ever. hands down. Brian can't even keep up. He was watching me the whole time to see what he was suppoesed to be doing. He's one crazy kid.

Today, I went to the hospital to visit my grandfather. I made him decorations for his bulletin board. He said they were beautiful. So, I think he liked them.

Now, I have to go do my chemistry lab, because Mr. Stepien basically controls my life. AHHHH. why did I take AP Chem. however, I did get a 100 on my acids and bases test. woot. woot. I did better than janine. hahahaha.
