Wheeeee!

So you probably thought I didn't post yesterday, but I did! It's a new page that I'll probably be updating eventually, but still! I accomplished something! Yaaaaaaay!

(www.theempressofdress.com)
So I still haven't seen the movie yet......but there is still hope, no? Maybe this week, but I know the theaters around here are going to be taking it out soon, so I better get it together.
I REALLY NEED TO GO TO THE LIBRARY! I'm rereading The Help which I love, but I need new books. I could use my Kindle, but I feel bad about spending so much money when I could read for free, and I rather be reading a dusty old book in a corner of my local creaking library, where the librarian knows me by name and asks about the books I'm reading and if she should read them. I recommended her The Catcher in the Rye, so we'll see how that goes. She told me she read it when she was younger, but didn't remember it well. I guess she doesn't remember all the F-Bombs either...


Man, I love Uncommon Goods. But anyway, about the book, I really liked it, even though a lot of people (mainly adults) don't. I also liked The Great Gatsby (duh), The Grapes of Wrath (I enjoy Steinbeck a lot), and Fahrenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury is a pretty cool guy). I found all these at my library, where even though it doesn't always have the newest and greatest books, it has a lot of the classics. And for some reason, like, twenty copies of each Harry Potter book, which I guess makes sense since they are popular, but still, 20 OF EACH COPY? A little bit ridiculous.
But hey, I like ridiculousness, so it's okay.
It's sunny and I had to come inside to type this since I felt like my face was burning off. Also, my butt fell asleep. I want some chilled soup, preferably mango and peach, which I had one time while I was spending some time in New York and WILL NEVER FORGET! It was so hot outside, and it was so cold and yummy as I looked at all the art at the festival. Now I want candy......
But coconut gelato shall do!
 
 

Soooo good and tropically... but you know I'm a sucker for coconut anyways.
Tomorrow I vow to post again, in typical fashion, perhaps after getting some of my summer assignments done. Heck, it may be June, but I hate worrying about crap.
A parting quote for your troubles....
"For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?' And whenever the answer has been 'No' for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something."
-Steve Jobs
I know that many people, including myself (the true, stubborn Capricorn I am), hate some of the changes that occur in our lives, but I just look past them to what the best result of the situation that could come from the change. And now I appreciate it, since change allows me to adapt and hopefully become a better person.
Deep diving in the ocean once again.
I want this poster so bad....(gotta love Vlogbrothers).
Catch you later.

My Post of Relaxedness

Hey everybody!
I guess I shouldn't have said yesterday was my relaxing today because today really was. I've been reading My Friend Leonard by James Frey (which I couldn't spell for the life of me for some reason), eating gelato and salad with dressing I made (not together), and enjoying the sun and green grass. Life is good.

So today I was thinking about how magazines and such have substitutes for foods, like if you want to eat pizza, have some saltines and a cheese stick with a tomato, and BOOM! You got something that's not tasty but supposedly is just like pizza! (Rookie makes fun of that here.)
Yeah, so today, I was eating gelato and I was like, "You know what tastes like gelato and sort of has the same texture? Raw cookie dough." Except that it kind of doesn't. Like at all. Sometimes my brain is very confused.

Well then. I'm ready to get to work on my garden (today I beat at the dirt with a shovel and some other tools and found a rusty stake in there (?)). After tomorrow I'm going to be in a lot of pain anyways, so I  am preparing to take it easy.
Also I am still thinking of ideas of what to write, and Lafawnda is not helping. So maybe I'll get my act together and have an idea.


Oh yeah, I forgot I was going to start doing quotes now. But I'm not feeling super inspirational at the moment, so I'm just going to write one that I remember.
"It's going to get colder than a tin toilet seat on the shady side of an iceberg."
-Dual Survival
That's about all I got to say for today. Hope everyone lives happily and enjoys life and DFTBA (thanks Vlogbrothers).
I really need to read all of John Green's books again this summer. I already reread Looking For Alaska, but I was thinking about An Abundance of Katherines earlier today when I was lying on my driveway. Apparently that's something I do a lot now.
 


Hahaha go Nerdfighters! Talk to y'all later.
P.S Have you noticed that I have been posting everyday? I'm doing pretty freaking awesome, if I don't say so myself. I need to find my gold star stickers........

3 Day! (Well, Free Day)

Hey mis muchachos y muchachas!
Today I have one of my first Free Days ("There are no rules! There is one rule!" to quote Cici's pizza commercial) in what seems like months.
I guess it actually was months with all the forensics tournaments and lacrosse days and concerts and work and stuff. Not that I have a job......
Well anyways, I started my day off with the eating what remained in my jar of Nutella, and got to work in order to relax and get stuff done.

This is what the jar looked like after I was done with the Nutella.
Back to my Free Day, I got to eat vegan burritos and hummus with pita chips. I studied a bit for an entrance exam, fell asleep on my driveway (not the best of ideas when someone comes driving up), wore my humongous sweatpants, and danced around a lot. There was music and Tibetan prayer flags (that I made) and overall it was pretty enjoyable, if not extremely windy. Oh, and I felt like adding this after waking up from my nap.
So very, very true for interp as well.
Well I didn't really get a whole lot of work done, but that's okay.
I'll figure everything out eventually.
I don't have much to say today, but I feel like I should include some John Green gifs, just because, well, they're John Green gifs.

 
 
And don't forget about Hank!
Well, I guess it's poem time. Except I'm getting quite tired of making stupid ones up, so I might add quotes now. But not for this post. I gotta commit.
This is it,
The last freaking poem,
I got tired of writing them like I tire of everything,
I have O'D on  Kraft mac and cheese,
chicken fingers,
Tastee Freeze,
those candy ringers.
No more Tootsie Rolls
or the Swiss Misses,
doughnuts, jelly rolls,
Hershey White Chocolate Kisses.
I'm even tiring of hummus
and muffins
which is just plain depressing.
(Just like salad dressing)
So this poem sucks,
but it'll be okay
because it'll be deleted eventually anyways.
Whoa, major poem suckage. But I like it that way and I need to go practice bassoon.
Sleep tight, kids.

 
Oh my goodness, has happened to me so many times. Especially with Buster. WHO CAN BE A TURD, ESPECIALLY WHEN HE PEES ON THE CABINETS! But more on that later.
