Wednesday: I Love You

Heylo!

 Oh, that was cool... It's like hello and hey put together, to get what goes over an angel's head! Don't tell me. I'm a genius.

 So, did you guys enjoy my Liebster Award Tag? I hope so... it was a lot of work, and I was pretty panicky about who I was going to nominate, because I actually don't visit more than three blogs! 

 Not even kidding, I literally searched on the internet, found some good blogs, read them, and decided to nominate the wonderful owners of the blogs! 

 I'm so tired today, because, once again, I stayed up too late! There was this huge storm with tornado warnings, and everyone was in the bathroom, waiting it out. 

 It only lasted for about half an hour, though...

 Would you be able to guess what I did that whole time? I made a video! I literally just sat down with my Kindle Fire and made a 20:01 long video! 

 I annoyed everyone else with it, but I was really just trying to lighten the mood. I know one phrase I said throughout the video: I'm not going to die!

 If all this sounds really serious to you, don't worry. Everyone's fine, nothing got knocked over or broken, the tornado (wherever it was) wasn't near our house, bleh bleh bleh, it's all good! Oh, and no one believed they were going to die, I was just playing with the phrase!

 OMG look at this adorable picture of Stella! (My dog)


Is she or is she not cute?

*silence*

 I'll take that as a yes!

 So, there's this really cute thing she does, when the family leaves the house. Remember how I told you how she's attached to Mom so much? 

 Well, when we get home, I take her out of her kennel and hold her at one end of the (very long) hallway. She always knows what's coming, and when Mom stands at the other end of the hallway, she goes crazy! 

 When I let her go, she nearly falls over trying to get to Mom as fast as she can, and when she does, she nearly falls over form jumping all over her! It's adorable!

 Oh, here's a picture of something my grandma got for me, it's sooo sweet!

It's a little piece of wall art to hang! She got it for me for Valentine's Day, and I LOVE it! 

 If you're wondering, the people on it are actually background, you put your own photo over top of that. We don't know those people, LOL!

 I was so happy when she gave it to me, because I hadn't even thought about Valentine's Day! I actually tend to forget the holidays like that, I only ever remember Thanksgiving, Christmas, and my birthday!

 I love you Grandma! So much!

                    YOU'RE SO BEAUTIFUL!
            BUT THAT'S NOT WHY I LOVE YOU!
                  I'M NOT SURE YOU KNOW...
         THAT THE REASON I LOVE YOU IS YOU!

 Good song...

 TIME FOR FUN WITH FACTS!

 Word of the Day: absquatulate. It sounds nothing like what it means...

 Song of the Day: I Love You - Avril Lavigne (one of her better songs)

 Random Fact: Water towers are able to supply water even during power outages, because they rely on hydrostatic pressure produced by elevation of water to push the water into domestic and industrial water distribution systems; however, they cannot supply the water for a long time without power, because a pump is typically required ... (hmm)

 Random Fact About Me: It went from nicely warm to unicely cold in one night where I live!

 Today's Prophecy: I'll finish my school book by next week. I hope...

 So, thanks for reading, guys! I love you all so much, hope you enjoyed it! Please comment, it means a lot, and I hope to see you at the next party! Bye!!!

Tuesday: Pieces

Finally figured out how the whole Liebster thing works! Rose was nominated by three people and gave instructions before she did it, so now I know! Yay!

 So, I was nominated for the award twice, and, basically, I have to answer 22 questions 

 First, Rose's questions. Oh, here's the link to her blog kisses-rose.blogspot.ie

                                    Question 1: What is your favorite season?
                            Fall, all the way. I just love the colors and the weather!
      
                              Question 2: What was your least favorite age to be?
                      Hmm... tough one. I would probably say nine, because I felt like 
                                 I had to be a double-digit number to be important.

                     Question 3: If you could learn a new language, what would it be?
                       I'm already learning Spanish and Latin, so I would say... French.

                       Question 4: What shop do you buy most of your clothes from?
                                                   Definitely Kohls. No debate.

                                     Question 5: What's your favorite board game?
                           Monopoly. If someone in my family says, 'let's have game night', 
                                  we're probably gonna take out the Monopoly board.

                                                Question 6: Why do you blog?
                            I blog because I like to know that other people might be 
                   reading and enjoying what I'm creating on screen, and because it's like 
                                I have BFFs who will listen to me as I pour my day out.

            Question 7: What was the first thing you did this morning when you woke up?
                                       Sat and wondered what I would blog about...

                          Question 8: What was the best holiday you ever went on?
                              Christmas, last year. I felt better about myself than I 
                      usually do at Christmas time because, for once, I actually bought                                              presents for my family instead of just receiving them.

                 Question 9: If you could be anywhere right now, where would you be?
                                              Disney... that's not so bad is it? 

                                           Question 10: Do you have any pets?
                                 Yes, I have a standard poodle named Stella, and a 
                                                petite tabby cat named Daisy.

                                         Question 11: Do you play any sports?
                                 I used to do swimming, Kung Fu, basketball, ballet, 
                 horseback riding, soccerball, scouts, and gymnastics. Now I just do ballet...

 Okay, time for Liv Hudd's. Here's the link to her blog, check it out, it's great!               livsbeautyandfashionblog.blogspot.com

                               Question 1: Who is your favorite blogger and why?
                                 Rose, because she is extremely interesting, sweet,
                            and then there's the fact that she was the first person to
                                                        discover my blog.

                   Question 2: Do you watch youtubers, if so, which are your favorite?
                               I do watch youtubers: MylifeasEva, Zoella, DailyYou, 
                           Grace Helbig, Jenna Marbles, Tyler Oakley, Tiffany Alvord, 
                            Alyson Stoner, Tyler Ward, and I won't complete the list...

                                         Question 3: Do you have any pets?
                     My cat, Daisy, who is three years old, and my dog, Stella, 
                                              who is only eight months old.

                                    Question 4: Favorite song at the moment?
                                                Pieces by Ella Henderson.

                                              OH NO YOU CAN'T FAKE LOVE!
                                                IT'S NOT A GAME YOU PLAY!
                                          YOU'VE BEEN THERE FROM THE START!
                                                THIS STARTS TO END TODAY!
                                                 TONIGHT I'VE HAD ENOUGH!
                                                  ENOUGH TO GIVE YOU UP!
                                                 I'M UP AND OUT THIS PLACE!
                                           SOMEWHERE WHERE YOU CAN'T GET ME!
                                                      O-OHH WHOA-OA-OA

                       Question 5: What show did you watch all the time as a kid?
                                                Er... anything on PBS Kids...

               Question 6: Favorite time of the year (Easter, birthday, Christmas, etc.)?
                                                    Probably my birthday...

                                   Question 7: First thing you do in the morning?
                                                       Get up and dressed.

                                            Question 8: Favorite treat to have?
                                 These little suckers called Chupa Chups. Delicious...
  
                              Question 9: Where would you love to visit on a holiday?
                                  Paris, France. I know it's stereotypical, but I really 
                                    would love to go there, even if not on a holiday.
                                               
                                                  Question 10: Worst habit?
                                          Not reading any of the thirty-seven books
                            I most likely got for a holiday present until about a year later.

                                                Question 11: Why do you blog?
                                               Because I failed at keeping a journal
                                                   and this was my second choice!

 FUN WITH FACTS!

 Word of the Day: Heterogenous. I actually don't know what this means...

 Song of the Day: Pieces - Ella Henderson (whooa-oa-oa!)

 Random Fact: The area encircling the Pacific Ocean is called the "Ring of Fire," because its edges mark a circle of high volcanic and seismic activity (earthquakes). Most of the active volcanoes on Earth are located on this circumference. [That's just great. Great.]

 Random Fact About Me: I had such a late night last night, and such a LONG day today, that, although this was originally yesterday's second post, I'm redoing it so that this is actually Tuesday's post. I know it's lame, but. But. You know.

 Today's Prophecy: I won't actually wear the piece of jewelry that I thought I would tomorrow. IDK! It's random, guys!

 I love you all incredibly! Thank you, Rose and Liv, for nominating me! *forms heart shape with hands* Good-bye!

Monday: Love Is A Rose

AGGHHH. MONDAYZZZ.

 Well, we couldn't escape it forever. Yes, it is the start of a new week, which means you have to wait for five days before you get life again.

 I know, sucks right?

 So, yesterday, I actually went to Kohls with my mom, and I got some jewelry and a really cute vest for the summer, so I'm going to show them to you!

 Here's the first one, a bracelet:

This is a beautiful bracelet that is, like... wow. I'm actually wearing it today, I love it so much! It's amazing and goes with most every outfit I have, and it looks great casually and formally! 
 It's not a clasp bracelet, if you were wondering, it's one of those bracelets that has clear elastic so that it can fit on anyone's arm.
 I love how shiny and black it is, and the detail is very nice. On the inside of each of the shiny black stone-things is this teeny pattern. Nothing exquisite, just several lines going outward so it looks like it's shining. 
 I <3 everything about it, and I actually think  I'm wearing it tomorrow, too! And the next day...


 This bracelet is literally a different color version of that one!                  TWINNING!
 The lighting distorted the color a bit, making it look purple, but it's actually an extremely vivid, bright red. 
 You can't wear it with as many outfits as you can the black one, but, black goes with everything, so, there's that.
 I told you my favorite color is red, so I loved this when I first saw it. I still do, I mean, it's not like I lost the love...
 You know I love you guys, right? You know that?

                 LOVE IS A ROSE, BUT YOU BETTER NOT PICK IT!
                      ONLY GROWS WHEN IT'S ON THE VINE!
                                       HANDFUL OF THORNS AND YOU KNOW YOU'VE MISSED IT,
                                           LOSE THE LOVE, WHEN YOU SAY THE WORD 'MINE'!

 If you don't know that song, it's fine, it's an older one. Oh, maybe tomorrow's post will be about older stuff/songs. I happen to know a lot of those...

 Next are a few necklaces that actually came in a set. I <3 them, OMG.

 Let me tell you that none of these are real jewelry, they're all cheap. But I got it because I loved the set of them, and I'd been looking for this type of jewelry for a little while.
 This one is my second favorite, and it's sooo pretty to wear. I like how it's gold (color, duh, it's not real gold) with that royal blue color in the center, and I like how the gold stuff spreads spreads out, making it look like a bird (am I crazy?) with wings (Yeah, I'm crazy. Who adds on the evident, for-dummies fact that birds have wings? MEEEEEE!).
 I'm actually wearing this tomorrow, so... we'll see if my love holds up under the pressure...
 #wear&tear

 This is another necklace...

 I'm sorry that it's such a very, very small image, but the camera couldn't get a closeup without cutting out the back parts of the necklace. 
 I love this little guy. It's a pink, beaded necklace with little, gold (again, not really gold) beads towards the front, with a teeny little center bead that looks like a little gold coin.
 I'M RICH! TELL THE PEOPLE I'M RICH!!! TIME FOR THAT FERRARI!!! MOMMA'S COMING TO TAKE YOU FOR A DRIVE!!!
 LOL, no. I'm not rich, first of all, the necklace isn't even gold. Second of all, I wouldn't tell people to tell the people that I was rich. I would tell my parents and relatives and maybe one friend, but I wouldn't want to let people know, I'd get robbed! Third of all, I don't actually want a Ferrari. I don't even have a license yet! 
 Oh, and fourth of all, I'm sorry if that was a little creepy...

 This is my favorite necklace, I think you'll love it, too, it's so freaking cute!

LOOK AT THAT!!! CAN YOU TELL ME THAT'S NOT FREAKING ADORABLE?
 No, you probably can't.
 I love it so much, it's different than any necklace I've had before, because most are actually pendants. This is not what you would consider a pendant...
 Oh, if you're wondering exactly what size it is, it's most likely the size of your pointer finger. I'm saying that based on the fact that I'm a medium size, and it's about as big as my finger.
 But I love this, and I'm probably gonna find ways to wear it casually, even though it doesn't look that casual...
 This is what you do when you're in love, people, you find a way!


 This last thing is actually not jewelry. It's that gorgeous summer vest I told you about.
 I tried to show you the front and the back, but I don't think you can see the back that well with the lighting. I'll show you a better picture sometime, but for now, let me just tell you that it's lacey and flowery, in a triangle shape that goes onto the shoulders.

 It's a bit big, but not big as in you notice it, big as in it's not the perfect fit comfort-wise. But I got it in the adult section, and I'm not an adult, so... there's that.
 It's really light and summery, though, and it's extremely formal, or extremely casual depending on what you wear it  with. LLLLOOOOOVVVVEEE!

 FUN WITH FACTS TIME!

 Word of the Day: Promulgate. You'd be surprised how simple it is.

 Song of the Day: Love Is A Rose - Neil Young. My family listens to him a looottt, and we actually went to a concert of his when we were younger! He's really good...

 Random Fact: Like air, water expands as it gets warmer and as a result becomes less dense. Water is most dense at temperatures near freezing. When waterfreezes, however, it expands, becoming less dense. If equal volumes ofcold water (down to 4deg.C, 39.2deg.F) and hot water are compared,cold water weighs more than hot water. [I got everything but the stuff in parentheses...]

 Random Fact About Me: I got up at 3:45 to start writing this. Crazy, I know...

 Today's Prophecy: At the end of the day tomorrow, I will be exhausted. Wild guess, I dunno...

 I'm so happy you guys came to read my little blog, and I love you so much! I would love to hear what you have to say about my posts, and I'll definitely check out your blog if you have one! 

 Shout out to Rose (she's another blogger, and she's amazing), thanks for coming to my blog, and actually reading my other one! Also, shout out to Liv Hudd, thanks for commenting, and nominating me for the Liebster tag award, as Rose did. 

 I feel so dumb, but I still don't quite understand what it is. I've done some research, but different sources say somewhat different things, and the rules are a bit confusing. I'll try to find out more, and if you can explain it to me, I'd love the help!

 Love you all, hearts and kisses! And chocolates! And nail polish! And goodies like that!

Sunday: Try

Sundays = Fundays!

 Okay, not really... I just love plays on words... hehehehehe...he?

 I told you I was gonna have a spa day today, but what I meant was spa afternoon. In the afternoons on Sundays, I stop going outside and stuff early, so that I can do, like, the things I need to do. I'm not sure if I'll be able to post pictures of the exact things I use, but I'll try.

 Forgive my soul.

                                    YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRYYYY SOOOO HARD,
                                   YOU DON'T HAVE TO... GIVE IT ALL AWAAAY!
                              YOU JUST HAVE TO GET UP, GET UP, GET UP, GET UP,
                                  YOU DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE A SINGLE THIIING!
                                 YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRY, TRY, TRY, TRY-Y-Y,
                                 YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRY, TRY, TRY, TRY-Y-Y,
                                 YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRY, TRY, TRY, TRY-Y-Y,
                                                  YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRY...
                                      YOOOO-OUUUU DON'T HAVE TO TRYYY-Y!

 But, it's not quite the afternoon yet, so... yeah. My dad can probably help me with the upload (he's good with stuff like this. I'm not...) once he get's back from whatever he's doing.

 Aww, yay! My dog is actually sleeping on the floor of my room! She never does! She's a poodle, and she has this attachment to my mom, like if they're separated for a second, the world will explode.

 OMG she is soooo cute, I wish you guys could hear the noises she's making in her sleep! *faints from the cute overload*

 Darn, she just realized that Mom left. *peeks out window* Oh, Dad's home. Brb.

 Okay, back! There was some confusion about what cord to use to download the pictures, but eventually it worked out.

 Here's my routine for Sunday afternoons, even if it still isn't afternoon:

 (1) Before showers I brush my hair thoroughly with a brush. Just a plain old brush, not specific or anything. I know you're supposed to use a comb, but I only use those for the occasional knot. I also wash my hair on Sundays, so I'm fresh and clean for the week. I wash my hair about three times a week, and I do work out, literally every day, and yes, I use hairspray and even hair gel every day, and no, my hair does not smell bad. 

 #iknowthequestionsbeforeyouaskthem

 (2) So, once I'm in the shower I shampoo (duh) with this one that I've literally been using for years. It works really well, and it's not that shampoo that your hair seems like it gets used to, and doesn't work after a week:


 If you can't see what it says, it's TRESemme Shampoo 'for dry and damaged hair'. My hair is neither dry nor damaged, but, still, it works like a charm. 
 BTW, it's not a dry shampoo, if you were wondering. You don't even need that much, just a few drops. 
 I tend to go overboard with it, but only for the sake of fun, foamy-and-bubbly hair that you get when you combine the want for the luxurious feeling of rubbing soap around in your hair with the want of seeing all that white rinse out and leave your hair looking gorgeous!!! :)
 It also works well with the next product on the list.


 (3) After rinsing it out, I put in a whole bunch of conditioner (I use a lot because it feels like it makes my hair more silky, not because it does...) and rub it around. People are always asking me what conditioner I use because they're like, oh my god, you're hair is so silky! Here's the conditioner that I have been faithful to for years:

 This is also a TRESemme product. It's amazing. You apply it however you personally apply your own, but the technique I use really untangles your hair. 
 Basically, separate your hair into four sections (at the least), and use a squirt of conditioner for each one, rubbing it up and down the strand. I pile my hair on top of my head while I use my washcloth on my arms and legs and neck, etc., so it doesn't get soapy or accidentally rinsed a little. It also gives the conditioner more time to work its magic, since I don't take my hair down until I've rinsed all the soap off. When you take the strands down, run your fingers through them so they're less tangled when your hair is dry. Then rinse them each out separately, and eventually rinse your whole head. It can take a while, and when untangling, it can hurt a bit, but, for me, the results are really good: silky and shiny.

 Next, I shave, which we are not going to talk about...

 Before performances, I usually use this cleanser, but only because of what it says it does, not because of what it does. It looks like this,

and it's actually up&up (Target brand), but honestly, it does nothing for me except make my face burn a bit if it stays on too long. Like, burn, sort of burn. I don't know if this is what other cleansers do, but it also leaves my face a bit burnt-looking. 
 But that's so weird because it says: 'for all skin types. Mild, non-irritating formula, softens as it cleans.'
 Hehehe, well, I think this is the sort of thing that we would put down as 'human error'...

 Next, I towel off, get dressed, and all that. Then I do all the primping. I think that's what you would call it...

I do my nail polish first, but first, I have to get the leftover nail polish off. I use this:


Not kidding, this is just something I got from Publix, but it works really well. I just pour a few drops onto a sheet of toilet paper or paper towel (anything like that works), and rub it over each of my nails. It takes a few sheets, but it's gone pretty quickly.
 The one complaint I have is that it's nearly impossible to get a small drop on a sheet without spilling some, or soaking the entire sheet. :(
 Oh, and if you sniff it, you want to throw up from the smell. That's actually my fault, though, who (with a brain) actually opens the lid and takes a whiff of that strong stuff? Oh. That's right. Me....................... ................................................................................... :(


 The nail polish is... CHARMING... hehehehehehehehehehehe...

 Sorry the image is so small, but it's basically this gorgeous Revlon nail polish that's an amazing (charming) lavender color. I got it in the shade 211, and it's amazing. I've only worn it once, but I LOVE IT!
 If you haven't yet gotten any Revlon nail polishes, you definitely should. They're all really smooth-looking, and great quality.
 GOOD STUFFS, MAN, GOOD STUFFS...!!!
 I then blow on it and, ya know, wait for it to dry. Once it's dried, I swear it glows. Beautiful.




 After that, I use lotion.

 Sorry, no idea why it's sideways, it just turned out that way, bad camera! 
 But it's an EOS product, one of the two (three?) different scented hand lotions. It's cucumber, smells amazing, feels great, results well.
 Yeah, it does it all.

 Then I use a bit of under-eye concealer for the circles under my eyes.

I know that this picture sucks because you literally can't see a thing except the product shape and color, but it's a bareMinerals product. It says: WELL-RESTED - Face And Eye Brightener.
 It's amazing.
 If you put it on for several days in a row, your circles will vanish considerably, and it's basically this twisty thing that squirts the concealer onto the built-in applicator brush. You brush it underneath your eye, and rub it around with your finger a bit.
 The one problem is it's pricy. I don't know the exact cost, but I remember it being way more than it should.
 Thank God I don't need to buy it any time soon...

 And that, my friends, was my Sunday routine, along with recommendations and a veto! I hope it was helpful to you in some way or other, and, if not, at least it might have saved you from whatever state of boredom you must have been in if you actually chose to visit my blog! And if it only added to your boredom, well, I am terribly sorry! :(

 FUN WITH FACTS!

 Random Fact: Galleon or Gold-Galleon (ʛ) is the most valued coin of the wizarding currency. One Galleon is equal to 17 Sickles or 493 Knuts. Galleons are made of gold. In the late 20th century, the Galleon was also equivalent to £4.97 GBP, or $10.17 USD.

 Random Fact About Me: I didn't make this post in one sitting. I started in the morning and worked on it on and off to whatever time this went up!

 Today's Prophecy: Since I wasn't able to obtain the sacred viewership of the blessed Fault in Our Stars this weekend, I'll try something not related to what I want. How about... I predict that tomorrow will be the last day of my Shakespeare class. (I actually know it will, the term's over...)

 Be sure to check in next week (tomorrow...) for a new post. I intend to do them daily, and now I can say that tomorrow is my first full week of doing the blog anniversary!

 Love you all sooo much! Bye!

Saturday: Sorry

So, today's Saturday, obviously. It's the WEEKEND! WHOO-HOO!

 What was yesterday's prophecy? Oh yeah, that it'd be sunny. Well... it's not raining, but it's not sunny so... we'll see how this works out.

 So tired today, hard day of dance yesterday...

 Sorry, where was I? Oh, god, I'm really sorry guys...

                                           IS IT TOO LATE NOW TO SAY SORRY?
                                 'CAUSE I'M... MISSING MORE THAN JUST YOUR BODY...
                                           IS IT TOO LATE NOW TO SAY SORRY?
                                          YEAH, I KNOW THAT I LET YOU DOWN,
                                           IS IT TOO LATE TO SAY SORRY NOW?

 I don't even care for him, but when you gotta, you gotta!
  
 I'm planning to watch Scorch Trials today (the sequel to the Maze Runner), and the Flash, and Super Girl, and Agent Carter. 

 If you don't know what those last three were, the Flash is a DC show about a forensic scientist named Barry Allen who gets struck by lightning set off by a particle accelerator created by a high-tech science organization called Star Labs, which (duh) turns him and many others into medi-humans with super powers, and, as you can probably guess from the name, his is speed.

 Super Girl is another DC show about Superman's cousin Kara, with a story different than the one you usually hear: basically, Kara was a young teen living on Krypton, but was told to leave in a pod like her baby cousin's (Superman's) to protect him and guide him on earth; unfortunately, her pod was knocked off course and she was stuck in a part of space where time didn't pass, and when she finally got to earth, he had grown up to become Superman. The story continues with her working at Cat Co. as the assistant to Cat Grant herself, remaining hidden power-wise. An accident involving a crashing plane and her adoptive sister (hint, hint?) forces her to reveal herself to the world.

 Agent Carter is a Marvel show, relatively new and set in the time period after the second World War, about a Kick-A English woman named Peggy Carter. She lost her to-be husband, Captain America, in a plane crash on the job, and now works as the only woman in a secret agency called the SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve), while secretly assisting an old friend, the guy every one's trying to catch, Howard Stark (Tony Stark's dad).

 So, yeah, that all took a while, but they're all awesome shows that I watch all the time. Oh god, I almost forgot OUAT! Once Upon A Time is a show about... never mind, look it up.

 Ugh, need to redo my nail polish this Sunday, I haven't renewed it in weeks! I'm probably gonna have like a spa day on Sunday, but, then, I always do that. Tomorrow, I'll give you a list and possibly pictures of what I use on spa day, with recommendations and stuff.

 AHHH, gotta go with parent to get food from the pet store!!! Be back in half and hour...

 ...Okay, back! 

 OMG, so I got there and I was like, this is gonna be sooo boring, but nooo


 There were all these little mice in a glass case, and in the one next to that there were bigger mice, and below those were four big boxes with little crickets and big crickets, just crawling around, and it was SO FREAKY BECAUSE YOU FELT LIKE THEY WERE GONNA START CRAWLING UP YOUR LEG!!! 

 This woman also had these three little dogs and I'm an absolute sucker for little guys like that and one looked like a Pekinese, and one looke like a mini poodle (apricot), and the only quiet one was like a bigger gray Pekinese that looked like oh god, save me from these amateurs, and I was just like, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

 Come on people, even the most sensible of us all have to fangirl sometimes...

 Oh, here's another one of those cutest things ever, but it's actually under the category 'little dogs', so search that and you'll be glad you're alive to witness the innocence that you could never have...

 Okay, for real, you could actually have innocence like that, but it'd be extremely hard to get it...

  
 EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...EEEE....EEE...EE...E...

 TIME FOR FUN WITH FACTS!

 Word of the Day: Inimical. Head to the Search Box, guys.

 Song of the Day: Sorry -Justin Bieber [hehehehehe...he...]

 Random Fact: After a lot of debate, scientists are now saying that the primary cause of Coke & Mentos geysers is a physical reaction, not a chemical reaction. Their explanation is this process called nucleation. All the carbon dioxide in the soda – all that fizz – is squeezed into the liquid and looking for a way out. [Okaaaaaayyyy?]

 Random Fact About Me: My favorite color is any type of red, and people are always like, OOOOOOOOHHHHH when I tell them that. ???

 Today's Prophecy: I'll watch the Fault in Our Stars tomorrow. Pray for me, guys!

 Yep, friends, new and old, we had a good party today, but that's only to be expected on the weekend! Tomorrow we'll sit down, I promise!

 Love you all, have a wonderful rest of your weekend, and remember to eat your vegetables! I'm watching you...

 Right, so that wasn't creepy at all. 

 XOXO (what does that even stand for?), <3, kisses and jazz!

Friday: (It's) Friday

Hello, people, plants, animals. Martians...

 Oh, hey, I just got my oatmeal. Ow... maybe wait another minute?

 Lately, I've been so freaking tired. I swear, I feel like crap! It's so annoying, it's like I haven't had a single day of my life that wasn't a day where my eyes felt weird and like I wanted to take five hour nap. I actually can't nap except when I'm sick, I'm bad at falling asleep for the night anyway, but still.

 All of that just a second ago was random. This is also random: why don't I pick out every other word in that long, tired-infested paragraph and see what I get?

 I got: Lately been freaking I I like It's annoying, like haven't a day my that a where eyes weird like wanted take hour I can't except I'm I'm at asleep the anyway, still.

 Is it just me, or did that make no sense? Like, at all.

 Now my oatmeal's cooled, yay!

 Oh, yeah, my prophecy yesterday? It actually came true! I AM DESTINED TO BECOME A WEATHERWOMAN! I'M SO PROUD OF MYSELF! *wipes tears of happiness from face*

 So, it's Friday... and if it's Friday... well, you probably know what that means...

                               IT'S FRIDAY, FRIDAY, GOTTA GET DOWN ON FRIDAY!
                        EVERYBODY'S LOOKIN' FORWARD TO THE WEEKEND, WEEKEND!
                                   FRIDAY, FRIDAY, GETTIN' DOWN ON FRIDAY!
                           EVERYBODY'S - LOOKIN' - FORWARD - TO THE WEEK - END!

 Yes, so what if her voice isn't Enya's, and we already know what day of the week it is, and we already know what goes down on Friday... it's about Fridays and today is Friday. Can you see the resemblance?

 And now, just for you guys, I will share a photo of the cutest thing on earth!!!



 Is it just me, or is this just the cutest thing ever? I'm sorry if it's a little fuzzy, but you can find the higher quality photo when you search "the cutest thing on earth". I'm not sure how it works with Yahoo and other search engines, but it works if you use Google Chrome.

 Oh, yeah, here's another cutest thing in the world picture that turned up. 


 Adorable, or not adorable? If you said the former, you would be correct... 

 I have one more, just because we all love pictures of the "cutest things on earth", but on earth? This belongs in "Universe"! That's actually where I found it.


 Oh. My. God. I. Can't. Go. On.

 That was almost traumatizing, am I right? I'm right.

 Time for FUN WITH FACTS!

 Word of the Day: Aspersion. Look it up or whatever.

 Song of the Day: Friday - Rachel Black (ooooooh!)

 Random Fact: Contrary to popular belief, eating turkey isn't the main reason you feel sleepy after a Thanksgiving feast. The oft-repeated turkey myth stems from the fact that turkey contains the amino acid tryptophan, which forms the basis of brain chemicals that make people tired. [I actually don't eat turkey on Thanksgiving, but if I want to have a good night's sleep, I'll consider it...]

 Random Fact About Me: Blogging is the only setup I have with anything to do with social media. I don't have a Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Youtube, Flickr, Pinterest,Vine, Instagram, Burn Note, Tumblr, or anything like that account. I don't even have a phone, but I (despite the reactions I get when I voice this thought) don't really want one anyway...

 Today's Prophecy: Tomorrow it will be sunny (my weekend depends on it, I always spend time outside on the weekends!) and warm.

 This was Friday's post, hope you enjoyed it. Come back and sit down, because everyone enjoys a sit-down party. Right? Right.

 Let me know if there's anything you'd like me to cover in a post, or an idea for one. If you have a blog of your own, please feel free to leave the link to it in the comments, I'll be sure to check it out!

 Love you guys, no takebacks! Kisses and hearts and hugs and all that juicy goodness! Bye!
