A Walk in the Woods

My friend and I went on a walk to a swingy bridge and she was a model. And we ate cupcakes and strawberries. No, we really did! Yay here are the pictures.

I am infatuated with this shirt.


Mixed docs! I love this one.


My exploration backpack. I want to decorate it with brownie badges. It was my Mom's when she worked at an outdoors store in University!



Sooooo! Yes. You may see more adventure photos coming soon! It's warmer, so we can explore a little bit and go to cool places on our bikes. I like doing that. It makes me feel kind of free and I like to go places with my pallies! Goodbye for now!!

Happy friday


Accidental hair show-off :)
                                    
So I sewed some little flowers on one of my favourite shirts. I've had this shirt since march, I got it when I went to Fargo. I sewed the flowers on last month. I am really lazy and I am comfy in my chair and I didn't want to get up and upload pictures so I used my web cam instead.

DID YOU HEAR??? ROOKIE IS DOING A TOUR THIS SUMMER IN THE STATES! I WANT TO GOOOOOO!!!! The closest place is Chicago, and I think I have exams when they go. :'( Boo hoo. I am crushed. I WANT TO EAT ICE CREAM WITH TAVI AND PETRA AND ANAHEED AND PETRA'S SISTER AND BOYFRIEND. You have to read the article to get that.
BLEEEEEEEEEEEH. I'm going to go and make things and put them on a string to hang on my ceiling and listen to David Bowie to drown my sorrows.


p.s what could I do to make my blog look less boring? thoughts and suggestions would be rather helpful.

Tralalalala

dress-Forever21 tights-smart set shoes- yoki purse-thrifted


I just got this purse on Saturday from Value Village, and I LOVE IT! It was like three bucks!

 See how rooooomy it is?

 I also got some neeew shoes! I love them, they are so nice and light for summer! When I put them on, I thought, wow these are really weightless! Well, I've been wearing docs for about 3 months so it did feel nice.



I also got these orange socks. I'm not too sure what I'll wear with them yet, but I'll figure something out.
 SEE THE YELLOW SPARKLES??


YAY. It feels so weird to hear other bloggers talking about exams because mine aren't till the end of June! I'm probably most worried about math because I'm not the best at it. I'm kind of more right brained than left. A few weeks ago we had a career day about construction. I was totally bored by it, but I got a day off, so yay. Apparently after grade 9 you go on one every year. I asked a friend in grade 11 what the others were about and she said they were kind of the same. I really don't understand that because there are  other jobs in the world other than brick layers! I mean, why couldn't we tour an art gallery or an art school? Or even have a a day where we can learn about journalism or teaching or art or design? Gah. This frustrates me! If you could have a whole day devoted to construction, why can't there be one about the arts???

that was my rant for the week.

The only thing you keep changing is your name

hee hee. did anyone get my ARCADE FIRE reference there??? hmmm? OK then. Anyways, let's just say that I'm really overtired because I had a math test and a first aid exam today and I have piles of math homework due tomorrow and I have to finish 2 yearbook pages by Friday which is really hard because the website won't upload pictures and when it does it takes 20 minutes. Why am I on yearbook? I really don't know. gahbooeekovertired. I finally got my hair done!!!! :) See:





I also finished my home ec project early, so my teacher let me make these from this rookie tutorial!






Yay. I also made a little nature corner on my desk, replacing my collection of old stuff.

Hee hee. Can you see Frida in the left corner? :)




A pin from my cousin's band, Oh My Darling.


Goodbye, see ya latah.

Beatlemania!

Hello hello! Sorry I have been absent for awhile. I went to a trip to Minneapolis for a band trip. It was really fun, and we went to valley fair and a baseball game that was 4 hours long. That was the most boring part, other than the super long bus ride. We also went to the mall of America, but we only had 2 hours to shop :( because the mall closed at seven because it was a Sunday. BUT I haven't told you the most important part yet! I feel like this right now:


Yes, a screaming Beatles fan! That is because I got THESE when I was in the States:

Hot Topic

H&M


Now the sunglasses are an interesting story. They are from a cool store that we found in  the top corner of the mall called Ragstock. It was full of neon spandex and oversized sweaters and colour blocked jackets. The most amazing thing was these sunglasses that I got for $5! On the receipt it actually said ROUND JOHN LENNON! So cool! Sorry for the crappy quality of these, they were taken on my webcam because my camera is currently M.I.A.in  the disaster of my room because I still have to unpack and stuff. UUURGH I am tired from getting home at eleven last night.....toodles and goodnight even though it is only 5:26 pm.

I drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry

Hullo all. I kind of have a blogger slump. I cannot really find anything interesting to blog about except outfits, and that gets a little tedious. I don't really have an exciting life. The title kind of explains me right now. I started a blog, but my brain can't think of anything to blog about. I wore this today:

Top & Belt- thrifted   dress- mom's  shoes- docs
My really cool belt that has elephants and trees on it
dress pattern
Cool ring I got this weekend

bow nails

 I forgot! I made some new collages too.

ballerinas in space!



Just tilt your head a little to the left.....

Right then. Goodbye.

Rainbows Happy Ponies Sunshine

Hello people it feels like awhile since I've made an outfit post. Meh. Weird week so far. It just feels off. I don't know. Maybe it's the weather. Maybe it's ME!!! Oh my god I never thought of that before. (did you get my sarcasm there?) hmmmm? awkward. I wore this today. It's kind of boring and unartistic but whatever. I'm actually wearing jeans for once. Yup. It's a miracle.
Plaid top- Joe  Dotted top- Urban Outfitter  Jeans-Grg  Boots- Holland

The necklace I made on Sunday
