My life is not your life, My road is not your road...

[In reference to the title, I was just making fun of some advertisment for some online college thing...]

I've decided to show you fellow followers and bloggers something not even relivant to fashion... Here's my life outside of the fashion, photography, and everything else: It's gymnastics. I was a gymnast for over 10 years for club gymnastics. I used to go 20 hours a week and was at one point, second best in the state for my age and level. However, I quit and regreated it and now I do high school gymnastics. It's totally different than club-much more relaxed and not as intense. It's all just for fun in high school gymnastics... So here's some photos from our previous meets.

One more thing... what are we thinking about these CRAZYYYY shoes?!?! My friend and I were shopping and we found them, I was iffy. I was looking for some shoes for my winter semi formal {YESSS I GOT ASKED!!!!} and I have this lovely and simple black dress. It's got one shoulder that is lined with satin and mesh... I'll have to show you later.It's from Urban Outfitters! [: But I knew I didn't want plain black heels, I wanted something fun. however, these shoes are totally not my style, I'm usually very... plain and boring when it comes to fashion. Simplicity is my thing, but my friend loved them, and she said I needed some craziness to make my dress pop....She said I'm too borring, and needed to be exciting and spontanious. I agree cause I don't want to look boring at my winter dance haha. So originally they were $120 and we got them for $47, but I'm still pretty iffy. My mom hates them because she too is pretty laid back and likes simple things. To keep or not to keep???

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...

Photobucket 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...

A plethora of fashion!

Hello to all my viewers! Today I'm sharing with you a look, a new make up look I did on myself wondering if it looks ok, a dress I Trecy Feith dress I tried on, my work day, and my attempt to draw a fashion ad.

First, thought I'd share a look with you all. The dress if from a brand called London Times. It's little too long for me, so I hid the bottom part, which makes it temporaily shorter. I love the bubble hem dresses and skirts, but I have to be careful it doesn't make me look like a ballon. The cropped American esque jacket is from Urban Outfitters, but got it at a second hand store for $5. The gold chains with mini watch is from ForLove21. Decided to wear my black patent leather pumps with this outfit.








Today I had to work. I had a 3 year old class I had to teach and a Beg. I. Gymnastics is reality isn't that hard to teach to kids. The hard thing is to get them all to listen. My classes on Fridays are hard to teach because the kids drive me up the wall. Teaching girls from 7-9 with different skill ability is difficult in itself, and when they decide to goof off, it just gets worse! I love having a job, and getting paid. Usually it's really fun to work with the kids, sharing something I'm passionate about. However, today one girl cried because "she wasn't as good as the other girls" I kept telling her she actually has to try if she wants to improve, but she just pouted in a corner 'til her mom came over. Now her mom probably thinks I'm a bad teacher, which isn't the case!
Are we liking the "winged" eye effect? My brother thought it looked weird, but what do y'all think?
Oh, I also went to Target and tried on a Trecy Feith dress. Looked cute on the hanger, but when I tried it on it reminded me of some Amish Hippie. I'm sure it would look good on someone else, because the ads for it looked amazing. Guess it wasn't designed for me. Too bad because 1. it's Trecy Feith, and 2. it was on clearance for... $10!








Last thing, I was bored one night and looking through the newest Vogue, and decided to draw a picture. Attempted to draw the Lancome ad... Hence the word ATTEMPTED! ah, so I kinda failed, but it was an attempt.







find me on polyvore!
