walking in a winter wonderland...

I've decided to show you some more pictures of snow since most of you are amazed at it... haha and here's my dog, Dakota, too




I got some new boots at the thrift store today... they were only like $4!!! yayayayaya hahaa

I leave for my cruise and vacation on tuesday afternoon. I'm missing 1.5 days of school, so I have to make up two tests... Math tomorrow morning and Biology on Tuesday morning. oh boyy
I won't be blogging til I get back... hopefully I'll get some good photos

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and happy Holidays!!!!!!!!

imma dork

I think it's funny that everyone thought there was SO much snow at where I live. haha I don't actually think there is alot, we used to get a lot more! I took some more photos today... hahah and yes I know i'm a dork. However, I love this hat. It's so funny looking!








it was sooooooo cold taking these photos, my hands started to get numb!!!! And you can see my face got a little red too....

Smile for the Paparazzi

I finally got myself to go take some photos... nothing too exciting, but I did get a new coat.



Christmas is almost here, I'm quite excited. We are going to Florida and on a cruise! I just loath this cold weather that we always get. BRRR. I'm planning on getting a tan too!

We had to write a poem for English class about a place... ahaha mine ended up very emo. We just started a poetry unit, and I loath poetry. I'm so bad at writing it too. It was supposed to be about how I feel like I can just go to my bedroom and escape all the crap going on. I listen to music in the dark with my Christmas lights on, and that's pretty much it. Here it is...

The Escape Artists

The calamity of this world,
Is sometimes too much to handle.
Wait up, I just need you to tell me to hold on,
I need you to be my escape.
‘Cause when I fall into pieces,
All that is needed is peace and quiet.
The malevolence of everything
Is such a desolate feeling,
At the pit of my stomach,
Lingering and waiting for something pure.
The darkness overshadows,
And engulfs the remaining residue of wickedness.
The light twisted around the apathy,
Giving me my last bit of inspiration,
The profound rhythm keeps on beating,
Taking me away to my secret garden.
A moment in time,
Isolated and alone.
Just enough to keep the motivation running
‘Cause tomorrow is just another day
Let’s escape while we can.

Where in the world is Waldo?

Or should I say, "where in the world is Ana?!?!"
hahah sorry guy's i jsut haven't been the most motivated to blog. I was thinking of just stopping blogging, because it's just way to time consuming. Now that it's winter and it gets really dark out early, I don't have a chance to take photos. Since I get home from practice at 5... But I am going to my friends house today and perhaps i'll get some photos.

I had my first gymnastics meet last night. I didn't realy know what to expect, but I can't say I'm disapointed, but I know I could have done better. Our team won, and I"m pretty sure I got the highest score on most of the events and all around. I've got my first meet gitters out of the way, which is good. haha I elbowed my knee while warming up my tsuk on vault, and now I have a nice sized bruise on the muscle right above my knee. however, I think this meet made me realize just how much I've missed gymnastics. the cheering, the team mates, the performance, I loved it all.

Hopefully I'll feel the motivation to start blogging again... we will see.

Oh hey there

Seems like I've been totally not into it recently... haven't been into the blogging mood recently. I don't know why. I have my first gymnastics meet on Friday. I'm nervous, it'll be my first time competing in three years since I quit club gymnastics. I'm in pain, my back and legs hurt, and my hands have tons of blisters on them from bars. OH, joy.

Today the second trimester started at school, and I don't like it asmuch. Firstly, I have gym first hour... which is horrible. I don't wanna look nasty the rest of the day due to phy ed. I miss my Bio buddy, I'm stuck with these two really chatty and annoying girls for my lab group. He was a much better partner haha. Um, at lunch, I don't really know anyone... which is lonely.
ENOUGH COMPLAINING!

I went thrifting this weekend and got tons of awesome stuff, I found a boy friend blazer too! Here it is...




Sorry for the bad photos. It's way too dark outside by 5pm... I'm gonna have to figure out a way to take photos.
We also decorated the Christmas tree this weekend, and a certain little feline decided to drop by...

I don't wanna be the last to know...

An Anon reader said she'd like to know how to incorporate some fashion trends into her wardrobe while keeping things casual and edgy; no florals or pink. Sounds like me! I also wish I could make these bigger... I don't know how to. Does anyone know?

I absolutely say that boyfriend cardigans are the way to go. I love them so much, and they take up a huge part of my closet. Stripes have also been popular this season. I really like them. Rings can also add edginess to any outfit (Polyvore has some sickkk rings! Like the back bone/spine ones, and tons of awesome skulls)You can pile them on, without looking trashy. I like BIG rings a lot.

Also, you can still look edgy and casual while wearing a skirt. High waisted skirts are in right now, and they should stay that way. they're just a lot more flattering than skirts that hang on your waist... You can add a cool vintage shirt or Band t shirt to a high wasited A line skirt. I saw the grey skirt at H&M and I LOVE IT! However, it was a little too spendy for me... Anyways, be careful on what t shirt you wear. Some of them look weird with A line skirts. BERETS!!! they're so cute, just beware, those sparkley ones are kinda tacky...

I really like the boyfrien blazers too! Just because they are "preppy" doesn't mean you can't add things to it to make it edgy. Black skinny jeans would also look good, and maybe even those shredded ones too. Jewelry can pretty much make an outfit, you can add studded cuffs or edgy chain

I would like to add that you can stil wear florals or pink, and be "edgy" I do it... here, Lemme show you [:

Hope this helps!

Without you, I"ll be miserable at best.

Finals are DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So happy. And I ended up with all A's on my report card, a perfect 4.0 GPA. so that's good. however, I did get a C+ on my Bio test... hahah opps. Whatever, I've maintained my perfect GPA so, it's all good!

I took some photos for you all... I've missed blogging. I've missed seeing all your wonderful blogs! I have so much to catch up on. I'm sorry I've been neglecting everyone this week, it's been crazy. Gymanastics has been going well, we have our first meet next Friday. I'm pretty sure I'll be on varsity, which is awesome especially since I'm only a freshmen.

I love this jacket, too bad it's not warm enough to wear. Pulled out my lovely Polaroid camera, that I got for $5 at a garage sale. jacket: Urban, Pants and v neck: Pac Sun, hat and camera: Vintage, necklace chains: Forever21









So glad I'm back now. Hope everyone has a great weekend, I don't have school tomorrow!

You make me wanna scream..

And this is pretty much how I feel this week due to final exams... I really hate them. I'll be back to regular blogging on... Thursday. Haven't been caring what I've been wearing, I've been up late studying. It's been a skinny jean and t shirt kinda week for me. I hope everyone is having a GREAT week!
