Some More Reviews of Thing in My Life

Lady Gaga's Fame Body Lotion
This is part of her fragrance line Fame, which I had heard both good and bad things about. So while I was freaking out and running around T.J. Maxx and admiring its great treasures, I saw this on sale and was like, "What the heck? Let's try it." So I bought it and opened the box and smelled it, and thought it was okay, nothing special. Later, I put some on, and thought it smelled a little bit better. Then I sniffed it later and realized IT WAS AMAZING. I don't wear it everyday, and probably will put it on when I want to smell good for something special, but sometimes I put it on before bed and I sleep better. I couldn't tell you the exact ingredients (that's what Sephora is for), but it's sort of fruity and flowery, but not overwhelmingly so. I just like it.
 FOUR STARS! (Because it's black but disappears when on your skin and that's cool.)
Equate After Sun Cool Lime Spray
So a couple months ago, I went on a mission trip. We rented a van to take down, and on both ways it was filled with girls and all of their crap/food/bottles of drinks. Four days ago, a couple months after our trip, we were cleaning out a room and then a bag was plopped down with things that we left in the van. Along with the usual socks, flashlights, sunglasses and other stuff, I found this. It was unopened, and I was very interested. I actually thought it was sunscreen, but I asked if it was anybody's, then preceded to tear off the plastic and spray it all over myself. AND IT SMELLED AMAZING! It was like a mini tropical vacation, and I continued to spray it around the room and all over until I was satisfied. It now resides in my room, where it waits for another day to be used to bring smiles to everyone it graces
I give it FIVE STARS because of how great it smells and how the sheer randomness of the product and where I found it made my day.
My Swan Pants
I have talked about my swan pants before. They are one of my favorite articles of clothing, but I don't wear them often because a.) I can't wear leggings to school unless I have something to cover my butt and b.) wearing swan pants too often gets you addicted, so that is all you ever want to wear. On the trip to T.J Maxx that I mentioned before, I wore my swan pants so I could get a sweater to cover my butt so I could wear them to school, along with some huge wedge booties that make me feel like Beyoncé in the awesomeness department. I went to pay, and the clerk told me she loved my pants and asked where I got them from (Modcloth). When I wear them I always have a good day, no matter what, and that is just the joy that comes with wearing swan pants. I suggest you get a piece of clothing like them, something you feel great in and get comments on, because no matter what is happening, you'll feel just a little bit better.
Too many stars for me to write down. Sorry.
My Phone
I have no idea the of the exact name of my phone, but we have a love-hate relationship. It drops calls, will send multiples of the same text, dies all the time, and is the exact size that it is easy to loose, but is still clunky-ish to carry around. But if it gets wet, left outside, dropped down some stairs,or left in an auditorium for three days (at least I think), it will still be okay. It will get lost, but it will always return. It may or may not get stolen, but is so horrible and worthless that nobody wants it after they realize it isn't an iPhone so that in the middle of a lecture it will appear out of thin air and crash to the floor, and some child will hold it up and be like, "I FOUND A PHONE!" This is the way it has been, and this is the way it shall be. A relationship full of understanding.
3 stars. That's all I got to say on the subject.
The Orange Halloween Oreos
These Oreos are better than the original. I have no idea why.
2 stars. Oreos make me sick if I eat too many (which happens with the orange ones).
Do you use/like any of these products? Do you agree with me on any of them?
SHARING MEANS CARING! Have a good day!

Be Real

Okay, this is going to be a rage post so here it goes.
Something that bothers me are the people who don't act who they are. They go with what the people higher than them like, and end up doing what they do, dressing how they dress, basically try to walk the walk the talk and the talk. And I get it if you are a little confused about who you are. Everyone is a little bit poser sometimes, to paraphrase Hip-Hop of MyMusic.
But when you just copy someone almost exactly because you are afraid of showing your true self, that isn't right. Be a good person. Show your real self to people, and in the end, you'll get more respect as long as you are decent and respectful and don't try to use other people. If you love wearing huge sweaters, and the "cool kids" criticize you for it, why should you sacrifice something you love and is part of you for the opinion of other people? You shouldn't. Keep wearing those sweaters and feeling great. Have confidence. Fake it 'til you make.
Really, all I was trying to say, even though it came out a bit weird, is to be yourself and be proud. And don't copy other people, their outfits, their work, or their ideas. 'Cause that is just plain wrong.
End of story.

Is it Tuesday?

Hey y'all.
Sorry Tess (DDG),
I've been relearning what it is like to hack your lungs up for every waking hour in the most disgusting way possible, but this shouldn't have kept me from posting.
I hang my head in shame.

Even though this gif brings me tons of joy, trust me, I still feel bad.
Now on to other things.....
THE GREAT GATSBY SOUNDTRACK CAME OUT TODAY! Huzzah!
I bought it as soon as I realized it was Tuesday. (Hence the title of this post.)
That time was 4:00 pm.

Ugh. I am now haunted by the cone of shame. But I am working on focusing to get things done!
I'm going to hopefully do my job shadow next week (supposed to be done this school year, and May makes it!), audition tape Thursday, make-up work at 10 tonight (hopefully earlier but at this rate I'm doing good unless I fall into the Werid Part of Youtube i.e what happened yesterday after I was conscious). Life is looking good.
Except for the pesky hacking cough that sounds like a seal choking on a mackrel or something.
Oh update on Harem Pants trial: I'm going to say I still was sweating bullets, if not looking super stylish, but this may be due to the fact I had a fever. Hmmmmmmm.
I also ran into a wall. But no matter. Another test will be in effect soon.
But really, I need to focus on stuff.
Banquets are happening galore, which I forgot about one being tomorrow (refer to picture above). Listening to Great Gatsby Soundtrack helps get thoughts together.
Or unplanned dancing.


Oh, gifs and John Green. We love you both.
Actually I became a Nerdfighter this year after reading John Green's books, then watching Vlogbrothers while being sick and becoming obsessed. I love all his books, along with a lot of my friends and my English teacher. We we're going to do a duo on it, but it became sort of weird since we're both girls and the narrator and most of the other characters are guys. Awkward forensic-ness.
Speaking of that, I'm super excited for our piece we're hoping to do for next year, which I'm keeping secret even though I know nobody reads this and the possibility of you being a forensicator is very miniscule. But I shall express my joy of it in gif (bascially my favorite) form.


Yeah, I feel like this basically all the time. When I'm happy. Which is when I'm not sick or stressed out or bored to tears.
I sort of wish I had her sweater. I love sweaters. They're great. I have this one I especially love called "my 80's sweater" which is funny since it technically isn't from the 80's. I'm not really sure why I call it that. It is a cropped sweater I got in a large so it wouldn't be cropped (that worked out real well. Hehehe NOT), and it's in a neon yellow/green and navy blue print. I love it.
POEM TIME EVERYBODY! GATHER 'ROUND CHILLUNS! GATHER 'ROUND!
Gifs
You are freaking fantastic,
capturing moments,
awkward, funny, or beautiful.
You do what humanity wants to do with life,
Capture a moment that you want to remember and relive forever.
And replay it over and over again for the whole world to see
That something happened, something was there and still is here,
That was worthwhile.
YAAAAY THREE DAYS TO GATSBY PARTY TIME! THE SOUNDTRACK IS PUMPING ME UP!
It's okay. This makes me smile like a maniac too. We shall smile together.
P.S Hank Green is awesome too. Google it. I dare you.
P.P.S Apparently there is a musical group name Meadow Inferno. Of course there freaking is..........
