So since I've been feeling sick lately, I haven't been wanting to write any blog posts. I'm feeling much better now so here goes nothing. I've taken a couple outfit of the day pictures during my non-blog times, so I will post them at the end of this post. I'm not in a super mood to write so I will let the pictures do the "talkin'" . PS, excuse the lame hair.
OUTFITS:
My outfit I wore when I went out to sushi with friends.
Another outfit:
Ahh, I want to dye my hair back to this colour. Right now, it's this ugly copper colour that makes my skin look green. Fucking frankenstein's monster.
Alright, that is all for now. Will wrote more later, allie xoxo
I went the whole day without ever writing the date. woww. That, or I've been writing Feb 16th everywhere. I'm such a mess! I got a haircut today, which apparently causes me to have a tantrum. I burst into tears in the car because my mommy didn't let me cut my hair short. Do you see how pathetic that is?! I don't know what was wrong with me (PMS, I believe). LOL. Anyways, to calm me down, I've been eating Bailey's Chocolate which is just regular chocolate with some Bailey's inside. Hmmhm eoajgpeahgheang sooo good. I was at the hairdressers for 3 hours after school so I got absolutely no homework done and when I came home I was in a horrible mood, so I didn't do any homework then either. It's OK though because tomorrow I am missing math class for an honour roll breakfast (I'm on student council so they need my help...at 7:45 AM FML) where we commemorate all students who got over a 78.5% average (celebrating mediocrity much?). Anyways, I've got to go take a shower and try to do something with my new (horrible?) haircut. I think I AM going to go shorter though. Like Audrey Tautou's hair or Emma De Caunes. (This pixie hair obsession may have something to do with my viewing of Amelie and my obsession with francophones)
Ohey guys, :):) Do you see that my blogging has become more frequent? Not that it really matters, I pretty much blog for my own sanity, and to help me become a better writer. Anyways, I have some good news and bad news. Good news is that I am going to Aruba with Julia in less than a month! Also, I got my biology quiz back today (first bio assessment of this year)and I got 100% and I got 95% on my bio presentation on tuberculosis :):). Bad news is that I got a functions (math) quiz back and I literally failed. Ugh, I hate math. Anyways, I finally figured out a plan for my education: 2 Years Biomedical Undergraduate 5 years Pharmacy 2 Years Master's Degree in Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing and Administration I don't even know if the Master's Degree in that stuff is possible yet since 1) the program is in NYC and 2) I wouldn't have taken any businesses classes. I may have to take summer courses in business so I would be up to speed. Anyways, here is my Outfit Of The Day. (I may feature this sometimes in my blog, pending upon my laziness)
BY THE WAY, As I had previously mentioned yesterday, I'm going to wear no make up for a while and today was my first day of that. I felt a bit weird at first but I got used to it. Too bad I had huge bags under my eyes today since last night I didn't sleep enough.
So here is my outfit:
Leggings: Exhilaration (Target) Striped Top: Rodarte Leather Jacket: Joujou Scarf: Unknown Flats (not pictured): Elie Tahari Nail Polish: Maybelline Express Finish (in Optimistic) Earrings: Jennifer Meyer (Discoball Earrings) Sunglasses: vintage
I LOVE my new earrings, may I add. My mum bought them for me. Well actually, she bought them for herself but then I tried them on and we both agreed they flattered me more. Haha, so I got to keep them! :)
ALSO, I forgot to mention, but I chose my courses for school next year (my last year of high school) and I chose: Advanced Functions (oh crap) Calculus (double crap) Biology ( YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, I love bio!) Chemistry ( FTW, unless I have the same FOB teacher I had this year) English ( YAY, J'adore Anglais, even though that sentence was in French lol) Physics (FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- , I'm taking it just in case I DO decide to try my hand at the MCATs) Writer's Craft- (YESSSSS!:D Again, j'adore anglais et en particulaire, j'adore ecrirer l'histoires) Human Growth & Development- (Eh, I don't know yet. I want to take this class but I also want a spare. I may drop it)
Since I was speaking French there, I thought I may add that I randomly came across the CUTEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN on the internet yesterday. Her name is Capucine and she is a French little girl. She reminds me of Amelie Poulain and I love her! I hope when I have kids, they are like her LOL:) Here she is:
Ahh. What an amazing break I just had!! 3 days of relaxing, lounging around the living room while taking intervals between the TV and my laptop. My dad was out of town for this weekend and strangely, the energy in the house changed. Me and my mom felt as though a weight was lifted off of us. My dad is quite a (figuratively) heavy person to handle. I don't blame him though. He has a lot of responsibilities on his hands; being the breadwinner for our family, paying all the bills, and pretty much being the "nucleus" of the family. His stressful life doesn't really help my relationship with him. This year, I'm really striving to improve our relationship. I don't want to end up with one of those distant fathers. He's really important to me, even though I don't show it enough. (Me and my daddy when I was 1 years old)
Apart from all the "daddy issues", life has been going well. I've become SUPER obsessed with interior design because I'm going to move into my parents basement after we renovate it. My dream apartment would be a very chic Parisian theme with dark hardwood floors, light furniture, and glass/mirrored accents. Some pictures for demonstration...:)
The reason WHY I'm moving to my parents basement is because I've decided to stay in my hometown to go to university. Thanks to some very wise advice from a fellow blogger (Sandra, http://www.5andrablogs.blogspot.com/) I think I'm going to go to York University for Biochemistry with a minor in Marketing and then pursue Biotechnology in U of T. :) This is my current plan but who knows how life will turn out?
Anyways, last week I watched the most amazing French movie called Amelie. Hands down, the best movie I've ever seen. It left me feeling so euphoric that I am STILL feeling the joy of that movie. Audrey Tautou, the lead in the film, is absolutely gorgeous and super natural looking. Watching Amelie kind of inspired me to go au naturel. I'm not going to paint my nails this week and I'm not going to wear any makeup. I think I may continue the sans -makeup look for a while just because I HATE taking make up off with a passion. Also, I notice I tend to stretch the skin around my eye and I do not want to create any wrinkles.
On to my fashion news.... I've been loving leather jacket + large scarf + leggings + boots combos lately. It's been SO cold here lately (duh, it's Canada, and it's winter) so I need to stay warm but I like to stay looking cute as well. I notice that when I am not dressed to the 9s, I don't feel as confident and as good. If I am in a crappy mood and I put on some nice clothes, it improves my mood. Anyways, my mummy is nagging me to go organize my shoes (they have monopolized the entire closet) so hopefully I'll write another post soon.
Love,
allie

BY THE WAY, The most hilarious thing happened to me. This guy who sat beside me in my Physics class for an entire semester ( who said literally NOTHING to me all year) asked me out :S. I didn't want to be mean when rejecting him so I asked my friend to tell him I mean no but then my friend turned it into this whooooooole joke and I don't think the guy who asked me out ever caught on because by the end of the conversation, he thought we were all going on a date (yes, the three of us).
So I know it's been about a bajillion years since my last post but I have been busy. I promise. School has been sucking the life out of me since September. Until about 2 weeks ago, I hadn't had a moment to rest but then exams finished and for a peaceful week, I was pretty happy. School has now started again and the worries and stress have set back in. On top of school, I am still dealing with all the problems all teenage girls deal with: boy problems, friend problems, confidence problems etc. But overall, life is grand. If I wasn't me, and someone else was living the life I'm living, I'm sure they'd be extremely happy and satisfied. Unfortunately, I am me and therefore I always try to look for that next challenge, always try to improve what I have. As one of my favourite song lines go "Don't you only know that fools are satisfied?" That is one of my mottos in life. Along with "Everything happens for a reason" and "Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional". Anyways, since I am always on the outlook for improvement, my current situation permanently leaves little to be desired. I know I should be happy with what I have, since I have a lot, but I just can't seem to bring myself to settle for this. I don't want to spend my life in arguments, unhappy, living paycheck to paycheck. I always feel like I was meant to do something else and earlier on in life, I always thought it was singing but now I don't know. Maybe medicne, maybe something else, maybe writing. Who knows? Who will ever know. Life's greatest mystery only unfolds in the present. Anyways, I hope that's enough food for thought for now. Will hopefully start posting more frequently. This blog is my humble little abode for my brain. Love, allie xoxo
