First of all, My initial thought started from my midterm. My history of theater class was the only class I had a midterm in (IM SO LUCKY!)and we did get them back the other day. I got a 109% out of 100%. It amazed me. I can't remember the last time I got an A++ (yes, it deserves a plus plus!) on a final/midterm. Granted I've always been an A/B student, and received a C very seldom, but now, I'm shooting for ALL A's. But that's besides the point! I realized that History is my thing. I am so fascinated with it, and my teacher told us a quote at the beginning of the year that is true.
"History is the study of culture in a specific time"
Its so true, because if you look at how someone would react to something in the fifties, its different than they would have in the twenties or even father in the 18th century. Even fashion is thrown in there from time to time. There was a lawyer/political figure in the 17th century who had a wife known as Georgianna- who revolutionized fashion at the time, but she also knew what the heck she was talking about, and was a pretty well known figure for a female at the time. Its fascinating to me!
But I made the decision, which has been so hard by the way, to major in History. Once I do that I'm going to go to law school. When I get closer to Law School, I will finally make the decision of what I want to focus on exactly wise. But with this decision my gut feeling is really good, and I know I can do it! <3
I've decided on something that for one, will be financially secure, but at the same time I will get to help people! How fantastic is this idea? I'm just so happy right now Its literally seeping out of me!
Oh, and the song, listen to it. Its so inspiring and amazing. Idina Menzel is just magical. Not to mention there is a time in your life where its time to work for what you need, its a time for you to be BRAVE and rely on only you.
So I was listening to the broadway Channel on my tv, and one of my favorite musical songs came on ever! It was for good from the musical Wicked, so I got this idea! If Elphaba & Glinda were in the real world sort of thing. I pictured Elphie was one of those kind of girls who wore cardigans and skirts.

If you've never seen Wicked, go see it, Now! Its an amazing musical.
I Just had a major burst of energy. I started laundry a while ago, and I need to finish a load before I could go to bed, but it was just like, bang! Burst of energy. If you had just walked in on my like three minutes ago, you would have seen my awesome white-girl dancing. Its way to late to be up right now, and THIS IS WHY I NEVER WANT TO GO TO CLASS. not to mention its turned into a hell-hole. It used to be awesome, then It got stressful and I hate it. Go figure, right? Besides all that, I started watching skins again. Makes you feel good about the misfit inside of you plus the music is just fantastic. This post wasn't much of well anything, but it just feels good to go at it for no reason I guess. It keeps you holding on.
The song is Dog Is Dead - Glockenspiel Song.
I think the show skins is fantastic. Generation three has been the most relate-able to me personally, because it's been a little more mellow than one and two, but Its also my generation (age wise, If I went to their school, I'd be with them right now)so its even more so. I think its interesting to put perspectives of people in your mind, and how easy something can make someone just, snap. Like in Generation one Cassie just went ape s-*. But I still loved her! In this that hasn't happened much, but Liv sort of just left, and didn't come back, and just escaped, which sounds pretty awesome if you think about it!
People are nuts, and they all do things different. Its fascinating really.
I died. This video is hilarious. With the release of Panem October, I feel like THG just blew up! Which isn't a bad thing, 'cause HP ended, and sure, I know there not the same by far, but it gives people something to waste time obsessing over when they should be doing something productive, haha.
BUT in seriousness, these people made an AWESOME Video. Its obviously Haymitch with the second quarter quell. Its a little bloody, just by the way.
LOVE THE HUNGER GAMES, thank you Suzanne Collins for my addiction <3
Outfit Breakdown: Shirt, Skirt, Tank: AE ha. That was easy!
Other than that, I got this outfit for a fraction of the original buying price! The skirt started at like 45 dollars, and I got it for just over 14! The shirt was on sale too, It was magical. <3
I don't really have much to inform other than the usual of stress over classes, no time to do anything, haha. I did learn that they've taken out my mocha coconut frappichino from starbucks for the season, BOO! But I did try the pumpkin spiced late, which they were more than happy to turn into a frappichino for me! I enjoyed it well enough, not as sweet as I had hoped for today, but it was still yummy!
Oh! and I think I finally got the Layout of the blog set up to where I like it!
My Favorites! I have the usual favorites that are from Aladdin and TLM, but these are love! <3
Lion King 2!
Treasure Planet
ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCORES EVER, from Tarzan <3
Oliver & company
A goofy Movie
This song doesn't get enough credit! God Help the Outcasts!
Tarzan is my ALL Time favorite disney movie. Its just pretty much always been that way.
Tarzans Human mom is my favorite character, followed my Jane!
Then Tantor... Love.
I have a Tantor Stuffed animal that my Niece almost always has to sleep with, and sometimes she takes it to school with her, its adorable!
Pocahontas is that one movie that I want to watch when I'm sick. I love it tons, and the music is just...ohmylanta.
Not to mention I've always wanted this to happen
And Pocahontas is fierce.
Not to mention I've always wanted to do this...with the music that's involved!
Which leads me to this
I LOVE TREASURE PLANET.
Its just fantastic.
SO When I think Disney I think of the 90's classic princess movies, sure, but I think a lot of other movies too! Not only Disney actually, but Musical cartoons all over, like The Swan Princess and Quest for Camelot (Uh, BEST MOVIE EVER.) I have a sort of boy taste when It comes to them. That doesn't mean I wont sing my way though the little mermaid though! So I took this picture the other day, and It inspired this post actually! I took it and uploaded it and was like "That looks like Rapunzel! That should be my Motivation Post, 'cause Disney is amazing! You can't-not-sing to disney, and they are re-releasing a lot of the oldies into 3d (beauty and the beast, monsters inc, Nemo, & The Little Mermaid to be precise! ) for kids to see now, I think its fantastic!
I'm going to start, once a week, reflecting on the awesome things that have happened. The taken for granted moments that make up life. The good fortune we have on a regular day, like just getting up in the morning!
Which means Its either let natural or I straighten it. Whenever I sleep on it, sometimes it gets rats nests, and people always tell me "Why don't you just brush your hair?"
Whelp folks. It looks Ridiculousness thats why.
I've found that fighting mother nature is much harder than you think. Its inevitable. Sure you can go get treatments to chemically straighten your hair, but I don't want the chance of it going wrong and it making it look worse than is usually does.
So I brushed through my hair last night, because every once in a while IT HAS TO BE DONE. So after I brushed it I proceeded to straighten in, which means that if you ever see me with straight hair for no reason, then its probably because It got to ratted up, haha. But I ended up taking my camera out today and taking some pictures, I had my settings wrong, so it took a BUNCH of shots right after another than it doing its usual wait a few second then shoot, so I ended up with the interesting little reel at the top!
I personally thought it was nifty! OH! And I finally got happy with my layout :) Cheers!
I'm learning how to move my stuff around on here, its kind of exciting! anyway! I love dresses and Cardigans and putting them together is just fantastic. I'm sad that it'll be too cold to do this soon. We've had some bi-polar weather where It was like 50 degrees last week and nearly eighty this week. Its all over the place, but I'm not complaining, I'm not quite ready to layer everything again!
Breakdown; No shoes, ha. I wore a pair of AE flops earlier Dress; Delias Necklace;Icing Tank;AE Cardigan; Thrift,Vintage, aka my mom.
Ten points to anyone who can tell me what this songs from!
I'd like to say I was busy, because it makes it seem like things are more exciting than they really are, but its not true. I could have muddled some sort of post, and I took pictures of an outfit I really liked the other day, I just didn't get around to moving them, and what not. So your stuck with nothing, until well this. I've been going back and forth between school and work, and its almost like a void, one you get stopped in, and its just routine enough that it's boring. Granted, I don't like to NOT know what I'm doing, that makes me stressed out and worried over nothing, but most the time I'm like that anyway. But back to the void and what not. I've realized that walking seems to be one of the things that helps get me un-stuck, well sort of. Since I got my glasses before the summer start, everything looks different. I use the phrase "Its like seeing in HD" I mean before you have glasses, you don't know any better, but now I wont go out of the house without them. It just makes everything more fantastical. I mean I've always been an artistic person, yeah, but with my glasses I see even more detail, and even more beauty in things like grass, and trees. OH I LOVE TO LOOK AT TREES NOW. The fall has always been my favorite, its just beautiful, and our blueberry bushes are turning colors and I walked past them, on my walk, and the reddest leaves ever were on them, it was just so pretty!
Back to the walking thing. College can feel overwhelming when things change. They tell you that its normal for a student to change their major three times, well I started in the spring, and just now began as a full time student at the fall semester and I've already changed mine twice, and the third time will be in the spring, simply because I missed the ten day gap to change. Its just crazy, and your mind rushes with the thoughts of what should I do now, that wasn't a good idea, what should I do now with the REST of my life. Its stressful, and I know I can't be the only one! So I walk. I walk around the lake, every once in a while I'll take my camera, but always my glasses. Even the pavement on the streets looks prettier! I always stop at the creek, and go down the path, that obviously is always changing with the season, I watch. I see the change of trees falling, the water levels, and its just relaxing. I always have that moment when I'm like
"Maybe I should do that thing Emerson did, you know with the hut?"
But even then, he cheated and took his laundry to civilization. Besides that! I find myself loving the thought of being lost in the nature that I'm almost seeing for the first time again, even when you've looked at that same spot for over eight years. Everything is changing, and that is the only thing that does stay the same, change. Which brings me back to school. Its hard not to be stressed over things, and none of my stress has been with my actual courses, its been with picking my direction, odd huh? I was thinking about it in my Theater class when my professor talked about the student directed play, I had thought about it, because I love theater, its always been something I've been drawn too, that I'd like to look at it a bit more. She mentioned it slightly, and as I thought about it more, I thought it'd be a fantastic idea! To be involved in at least one production while I was there would be nice, a good way to meet some other people but then BAM, it hit me. I have no time. Between classes, and going to work, I have two days off in the week, and when I'm not at work, I'm in class. It kind of bummed me out a bit especially since the performance was a comedy! Maybe I should look more at it? Perhaps the only time they practice would be after Seven! That would be lucky, but highly unlikely. So I'll stick that in my back pocket for now!
Back to classes and stuff. I'd like a sign, you know. January of this year, I knew what I Was doing. BAM, decided. Planned it out. By the summer, little hazy, by the END of the summer, decision changed. By this time my hand are in the air, its very crazy. To be honest, I can't even think of what I want to do right now, There so many possibilities that nothing will narrow down for me. Like one thing, I could do Business, which sub-divides into like five different things. Then we have Arts. I love me some arts. Granted the qualification of "Associate of arts" Is from theater to a history degree, heck I've even thought about an English degree. I'd love to write books ;) But I've even considered doing digital media, I'd love to help make video games, AND get paid for it.
The only thing I can tell you I don't want to go into is a Math field, that's all. Its just so hard to decide! I can remember a year ago this time, I would have chose to be like one of my biggest role models at that time, and work with students. That at this point even still sounds good, despite the fact that I'd shut that idea out a while ago. Hopefully I can find something that strikes some inspiration, and I can figure this stuff out before I'm sixty!
Its hard to decide things, but I should walk around a bit in my day without my glasses on, then put 'em on, and see things in a clearer way, maybe it'll help me make some choices. This was more of a rant post, but hey, that's okay. I'll do an outfit later.
