Day 33: Music Monday

The theme for this weeks music is simply indie. The indie soul and feel is the best part of music to me. This music can either be music that's perfect for the beach, study night, rainy days or cold winter mornings. I love it. And yes, I know I am a day late. I'M SORRY.

By the way, for all you indie hearts, there is a beautiful website that you can check out here.

Beware the Dog - The Griswolds

I Think I Like You - Siren

H8M4CH1NE - The Neighbourhood

Cavalier (The 1975 Remix) - James Vincent McMorrow

Chill out. Jam out. Enjoy the indie soul flowing through your veins.

I sound so cliche. 

The Weekend: Messy Ponytails and Cards Against Humanity

Friday:
CAMO CAMO CAMO. I mean going to a football in 50 degree weather is amazing. Especially when you get to embrace your inner hick and wear camo. Have I mentioned I am really digging football season?

Saturday: 
College game day. Again. All fall and most of winter long. But this one was especially fun because it began late. That means that friends get to stay later. Instead of actually watching the game, my friends and I decided to play Cards Against Humanity. If you look at the website you can see there is free download and you can get them printed off at a print shop. That's what we did. Let me tell you, it's so much fun. It's exactly like Apples to Apples for, not necessarily adults, but people of a more mature nature. It's not for the faint of heart.

Sunday:
Finishing shopping for senior pictures. That's one big stressor that has been taken off my shoulders. Shopping for stuff like that isn't my forte. I'm a casual shopper, not a event shopper. Which may be why I have so many clothes. I have yet to wear the same thing to school yet...besides pants. But messy ponytails, Sunday, and homework all go together.

Stay tuned for tomorrow and the 2nd day of Music Monday. Be gorgeous, little ones.  

Day 29: Finding Happiness

HAPPY DAY.

I think today was finally the day that I gave up on the bad. I gave up on the things that upset me. I let those things go. It was time. Time to try something new, hang out with different people, and branch out. This is where making and creating your own happiness comes into play; do what you want. Don't rely on others to make you happy because they will fail. Nobody knows you like you do.

To be clear, I haven't gave up on people, I just gave up on all that I was always trying to do. I was constantly trying to keep the peace and make them happy, do what they want. I realized that wasn't what made me happy. It actually made me quite sad. I was always stressed and constantly disappointed. I then came to the conclusion that they don't know. They don't know that I try so hard, it's just normal to them. It was time for me to step back before I fell off the edge.

Wednesday was my favorite outfit. I love mixing and matching things that end up working together. Lately I have been experimenting with different things. I have been looking on Pinterest for outfits for pieces of things that I have in my closet that don't get worn, which has actually become a new hobby for me.

Alright, it's bedtime. An 18 hole golf meet tomorrow, which means it's an early morning for me. 

Day 29 conclusion: Take charge of your life. Out with the bad, in with the good. 

Day 28: British Flag Sweaters

Tuesdays are annoying.

I hate Tuesdays.

They are beginning to be the lull in the week where things are just boring.

Weekend events end and it's time to try and focus on school again. Wonderful. But this Tuesday it rained. And if you have been keeping up with my blogs, you should know that I love rain.

Rain called for my favorite sweater. Which also happens to have the British flag on it. It's kind of an inside joke thing as to why I have it, but it's also so cozy, which is wonderful.

Well that was today. Like I said Tuesdays are boring. But tomorrow's post should be pretty cool. Stay tuned!

Day 28 conclusion: The British flag spices up a gray rainy day.

Day 27: Music Monday

So this is a new thing that I think I'm going to start...

I have found that Monday's are usually uneventful for me. Every time I have sat down and tried to write an inspiring and exciting post on a Monday has been a complete failure.

Henceforth, Music Monday was reinvented. It's not always going to be "Music Monday", but this is just the beginning.

Let's begin.

 It Was Always You - Maroon 5

East of Eden - Zella Day

Swimming - Florence and The Machine

Of the Night - Bastille

Hey Now - London Grammar

Enjoy these fine selections of music. I really hope you like these new things I am trying to do. Change is GOOD.

Conclusion: I am always looking for new ideas, which is awesome.

Day 24, 25, and 26: Haunted Houses and Lost Phones

Friday
Friday means one thing in small town America: high school football. It also means another thing in my town; the heartbreak of yet another loss. But the bonfires afterwords are really what's the best about Friday nights in the fall. So bonfire, part one of the night.

Part two of the night was going to an abandoned house that is around the town. Ran into some people that we didn't know, but ended up all going into said house together. Besides the random handprint on the wall, it was just abandoned.

Saturday
Saturdays also mean football, but just of the college sorts. I slept in until 11 and then cleaned the house. Around late afternoon, I met up with some friends who went horseback riding and four-wheeling. Along this short journey, I lost my phone. On a gravel road. In the weeds. Never to be seen again. I bucked up the courage to call my mom, who ended up finding it with location services. Would not have found it if it was not for my mother.

Spent the rest of the night watching scary movies.

Sunday
All I have to say, senior picture outfits. Shopping all day. It was extremely fun and quite tiring. But that is the ideal Sunday, not necessarily lazy, but not busy to the max.

Conclusions: Friends are rad and my mom really is a problem solver.

What Day Is It?

Well this is slightly awkward...

I am a terrible person, I know. It's been almost a week since I have posted. To be honest, I have been busy, but also extremely tired. I've been going to bed before 11 (that's early) and not waking up until the last minute (8:30).

To update you guys, Tuesday was rainy, Wednesday was so uneventful I can't even remember what I did, Thursday went to an invite and got 12th place out of 30 some people. The weekend was eventful so I will blog that here shortly.

Life is busy. Busy busy busy. Especially as a senior. There are applications, scholarships, homework and things like graduation. I never imagined that there would be so much that would go with being a senior.

Okay the best post is coming here shortly. Give me about an hour and a half and prepare to be amazed. Something different? Definitely.

No conclusion because I'm terrible and missed 4 days of blogging.

Day 20: Crafty Monday's

Obviously there was no school today, as it was labor day. So what happened? Well, my friend was like "Let's make sweatshirts!" So we bought sweatshirts from WalMart and fabric from the craft store and got to work. They turned out pretty amazing, if I do say so myself.

Also, Keeping Up With the Kardashians season finale was tonight, which I wasn't aware of. That made my night. Monday nights are the best night for TV because Teen Wolf is on. I love Teen Wolf. So much.

It the little things in life, such as finding out that my favorite show is on. I'm really mellowed out right now, because I should be in bed, but I'm not. It's just one of those things that reflection on the day does to you. You remember the good and the bad, but I have been trying really hard to make sure to remember the good. I don't push away the bad, I just decide to not give it the time of day anymore.

I've really enjoyed my time of reflection on this blog. It has shown me that the little things can make for an important day. Life is crazy and you just have to remember that the bad things will eventually turn into good things and be amazing.

I'm getting all nostalgic, I know. But that's the way things are now, I must be nostalgic in order to make things interesting.

Day 20 conclusion: Nostalgia is amazing. And I can't figure out how to turn that stupid picture to where it isn't sideways.
