Oh, hello there.

If this blog was a child, CPS would have already been at my house, arresting me..for neglect. Truth is, I started school on Tuesday and have been really just enjoying every single second of senior year so far..
That's no excuse, I know.


I'm taking a full schedule, and working everyday..and may even be taking some classes at FIT in October ( but we'll see how that goes..).

More posts soon, Promise!

YO, MN.

Hey, um...mother nature...

I though we were like cool, with you sending all these hot beautiful days..



What is all this talk about a category four hurricane barreling into Long Island?



Whatttttttttttttttttt?




Please, don't?





In all serious, I hope the hurricane stays far enough off the coast, and leaves us all alone!

Be safe everyone!

Life's a beach.















Spent the first day of September cruising through shops in beautiful Port Jefferson, NY. Somehow, we ended up in Smithtown, NY...at Long Beach.

September is usually a month were in NY, it starts to get a bit chilly..not today..not one bit. It was 95 degrees, with no humidity.

Thanks Mother Nature.

Happy endings and new beginnings.

Woah, did anyone else realize that today is the first day...of September? Where did June, July, and August go? This summer literally flew past right before my eyes. In 6 days, I'm a senior. A senior, to me..4 years ago..was not going to happen. I hated high school, just like any other freshman. You're the new kid, terrified of what you're going to go through on a daily basis. Now, this is my last, first day of grade school..ever. I guess it's time to grow up. Out with the old, in with the new.


August was incredible..a lot of things happened. I started blogging again, went on vacation with my family, learned that I had a summer reading project to do, got a job, and literally enjoyed every second of everything I did.

This may be weird, but summer is a time, where I like to get away from everything. If I see a couple of my friends once in a while, I'm fine. I like to get AWAY from the drama that tags along with the school year, and I can honestly say that this summer was completely relaxing.


So, let us all welcome September, and this Autumn and Winter with open arms..because it is my favorite time of year.

I'm ready.

The birthday of a princess.




A bit early, yes I know. But August thirty-first, is a very important day. It's the birthday of one of my oldest friends, Kelly. We met when we were just wee little babies, in Sunday School class, at church. Eventually..we fell in love and it was all down hill from there.




Kelly and I share a love of many things...like red velvet cupcakes, taylor swift, ralphs, boys, country music, boys, country boys, skittles and watermelon sourpatches. We taught confirmation classes at the church where we met for two years together, and talk almost everyday. She could possibly be the only person left on the entire planet that actually uses AIM.








The thing about Kelly Jane and I, is that we are..princesses. Just ask either of us, or our parents. Kelly, actually wears a light up, princess tiara from Disney world..almost on a daily basis. If I had a light up tiara..I would too.


We've been through so much together, that we're basically joined at the hip. Yet, we don't ever have classes together, because she's 800x smarter than me, and is basically taking the smartest classes in my school. We've loved boys, lost best friends, and moved on..yet remained strong as best friends. I wouldn't want to have anyone else to call and cry hysterically to because a boy I liked, kissed another girl..or my nail broke. Every girl needs a best friend who is like them, and that's where she comes in for me.



So here's to you, Princess Kelly. The post I promised you, and a promise from me..I'll be here for you through thick and thin..and will support you in anything you choose to do. I love you with all of my heart, and hope your seventeenth birthday is incredible.

Love Always,
Your peanut butter princess calender muffin notebook toaster telephone of a best friend.
Me.


Ps..I HOPE YOU LIKED THE FLOWERS<3

Product Review: Eyeslipsface Palette



So on my last trip of many to Target, I saw, that they now sell Eyes Lips Face products. I picked up a couple of things, but by far, this palette, which cost only five dollars was my favorite. It comes with 12 shadow colors, an eyeliner, and a sponge brush.




*In row one, going horizontally..:

Color one : Shimmery white/silver color which is very pigmented. The only thing I didn't like about this particular shadow is that it wasn't pressed very well, it started breaking! WAH!

Color two: Basic, shimmery fleshtone color, good for the lid, but not very well pigmented.

Color three: Lilac purple, extremely pretty. This color is also really really pigmented, good for green eyes! Purples help to enhance hazel and green eyes.

Color four: Just a deeper, darker shade of shadow number two, but more pigmented! I loveeeee this one!


In row two...:

Color one: Reminds me so much of that shadow by Urban Decay, Midnight cowboy or something?! So pigmented, good for everyday use!

Color two: Deep, olive green shadow. Very pigmented! Green shadows are good for brown and green eyes, they help to make the eyes pop!

Color three: Beautiful sky blue, with a bit of a gold reflex to it. Once again, extremely pigmented.

Color four: Extremely shimmery cocoa brown color, good for defining the crease.


Last, but not least... row three:

Color one: Matte white color, good for enhancing and highlighting under the brow bone, and the inner corner. Not well pigmented.

Color two: Satin purple, barely any shimmer, but when swatched, looks like purple satin!

Color three: Maroon type of shadow, also looks like satin. This is by far, my favorite color in the whole palette. It's so pigmented and so beautiful.

Color four: Black shadow with silver glitters. So pretty, I would recommend keeping a tissue under the eye when applying, because the amount of glitter causes alot of fallout.


The eyeliner, is just a basic black liner, it's very creamy, which is good! I'm not a fan of the spongetiped applicators in general, so..
