Ponyo Makes My Heart Skip a Beat!

this moive called, "Ponyo" is coming out
the 14th i believe.
it literally made my heart skip a beat!
from Hayao Miyazaki comes this movie!
i love his movie and the animation
it literally makes me awe w/wonder!
the color, the...everything!
i've seen bits and pieces of his movies
which sucks cause they're sooo beautiful
and fantastic!
like his movies, "My Neighbor Totoro", "Kiki's Delivery", and "Spirited Away"...
ohmigosh they're just so wonderful!
but i can't get my grubby fingers on them!
=[
but this one's in theaters...
so i should be able to catch it!
i NEED to catch it!

The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread!

ya see this picture?? on the left here??

this stuff is amazing.

i've tried artifical butter type things before like butter flakes...things like that...bleh.

but this one, these are no "butter flakes",
this stuff is YUMMY!! and BUTTERY!

i (as well as the rest of my family) put this on EVERYTHING! you can find it anywhere like Wal-Mart and such-so not to fear!

ramen noodles, buttered pasta, fish, veggies...it's SO GOOD!

AND it's low in calories and barely harms your body @ ALL.
so LOAD UP your baked potatoe w/it! please....PLEEEEEEASE try it out! put it on your grocery list! i've never tasted such lovely (no harm done) butter tasting non-butter product ever! ooooh delicious!!

i'm sharing some precious treasure...try it!

Hmmm...

....Coconut M&Ms...
haha, my mom bought some @ Wal-Greens.
they're...interesting, when you first try one,
but i really like them!
i'm a pretty big coconut fan (scent and taste-wise)!
give it a go!
it won't hurt
aaand it's a limited time offer!
yummy...coconut!

I Can Fall in Love Again!!


psssst!
hey, remember this boot i talked about
in an earlier post??
and how it was love @ first sight,
until i saw the price-$85.
then i was broken??
well, it's "on sale"
for $50
(should've been %50 all along if you ask me...)
so i have a reason to fall in love again
and still have hope!
<3

EVIL Prank!!...I HAHAHA I Must Try it!!

so my dad and i were watching that burger king commercial
with the perv-lookin king guy pulling pranks on sleeping citizens.

and my dad thought back to hazing days...

he told me about a prank i MUST try!:

first, you get someone w/a bell ready, another person w/a flashlight,

and one other person w/a pillow...

the person w/the bell starts ringing it and yelling, "TRAIN!!! TRAIN!!!"

while the flashlight person turns the light on dead in his face.

when the sleeper starts to "come to"

hit him w/the pillow to make 'em freak!

they'll be so sleepy and out of it, they'll probably freak and think they DID get hit!

it sounded SOO funny!

I've GOT to see it in action!

hahaha!


I'm 18!

i have soooooo much to write about! i even wrote a list on a notebook-i'm already on the back of the first page!



but this post is simply stating that...i'm 18 today! sooo much happens today (in my opinion) and this month... i cannot wait! i asked for a cookie dough Blizzard with a single red sparkler candle in it-didn't get my candle, but it's cool, haha! i'll get it someday as my own little treat. also, i'm getting a birthday cake from Meijer and i asked if they have a pokemon-themed cake w/the original 151, then that's what i want!



i love pokemon, i swer they brain-washed me as a child!



anywho, i've gotten lots of birthday wishes on facebook and in texts (thanks everybody!). and my grandpa thought i turned 15 today, haha! better than last year...he thought i turned 12!!



aaaand the State Fair opened up its first day today! i LOVE the State Fair!!! every year, they introduce a new food-we didn't go last year (*sob*), but the year before was fried pepsi.



they've fried darn near anything @ the fair, so all that's left is...CHOCOLATE-COVERED bacon (sprinkled w/powdered sugar). hahaha gotta try it!



they have a pig race too-gotta see it! their motivation is an oreo at the end of the track, haha!



there's a lot of movies coming out that i wanna see too today and this month (explain in later post).

but now that i'm 18 i can:



  1. smoke (not on my to do list)

  2. play the lotto

  3. go to adult prison (also not on my to do list)

  4. go to Dave and Buster's by myself

  5. get piercings and tattoos w/o parent consent

  6. drive and text legally

  7. get emancipated (thanks Julius!) haha not on to do list!

  8. buy things on TV

  9. sign up for shows like ANTM or Real World

  10. get a job w/o worker's permit

so that's about it-quite a bit haha!

i have quite a bit more to talk about on later posts!
toodles!

"Modern Families" Caught My Eye!

while watching, "Orphan",

there was a preview for a show coming out

on ABC

in September

called, Modern Families!

the previews looked SOOO funny!
i, personally, can't wait until it airs!
the picture from the show i can't get out of my mind
was when the "dad" from one of the families
said he was cool,
since he knows all of the dances from HS 3.

then they showed him dancing to, "Were All in This Together"!
HILARIOUS!!!
and the gay family bringing home their adopted baby??
and a woman, "called" them creampuffs...
ohmigosh-
i cannot wait!

TOO Cute!

so i tend to look up
the african american/mixed
"scene" and "emo" girls
no need to label,
but these girls can be SOO cute!
i love their look and fashion
(ALL sorts of fashions really)
but this is one i can see myself wearing the most
i tried the band trick on me
and it didn't work out...
=[
might give it another go!
these girls REEEEALLY make me wanna!
super sexy and super cute girls!
(pssst...i love the girl @ 1:36 !!!)
i'm SOO glad i discovered their exsistance in more places
than the few friends i have that are like this!
share the love!
<3

I've Never Seen Sloppy SOO Cute!!!

i saw Vanessa in this outfit in a recent Seventeen mag.
and fell in love w/its cute sloppiness!
i was inspired by the boots and socks.
i've been on the search ever since (or a few months before even)
for cute over-the-knee socks
and a cute boot to let the sock peek-a-boo under!
but i reeeeally love this look!
inspiration is all aound.
i saw another sloppy look
on loobook.nu
it was cute too!
can't find that girl anymore though...
but i WILL muster through my limits!

Testing, Testing...1,2,3 Testing...

Classic Black
Classic Black by minimouse2105 featuring Marc Jacobs bags

yay!
i just wanted to see if my polyvore set would get onto the sight!
now that i know it works...

i shall post them on here!
=]

this was an edgey classic sophisticated look inspired by Rihanna that i put together.
i'd love to have an occasion to wear something similar to this someday!

Schoop's!: More Chicago Fun

oooh yummy!
we ate @ this place along the highway
on our way home from Chicago.
it was called Schoop's
and i loved the experience!
(hence my new default picture @ schoop's)



as soon as we walked in,
i could hear a Backstreet Boy song playing
for the customers' satisfaction.
it took me waaaay back, hahaha!
it was cute though.
all of the plush pleather booths,
the front table area
w/it's sparkly red stools...
pacman right by the door...
lovely!
definitely nothing like Steak 'N Shake!
the prices were more reasonable too!
a $3 steak burger-worth $3.
who would've thought?!

(actual burger-NOT a picture)
so we ate, and i ordered a bacon cheeseburger plain
and some onion rings.
they were scrumbcious!
but nothing touched
the vanilla malt milkshake!
it was the maltiest malt!
and the whipped cream...
oooh the whipped cream!
it was SO rich and thick!
and i thought the Cheesecake Factory whipped cream was rich!
i don't ever think i've finished a whole milkshake
of any kind before.
if so, rarely!
but i scarfed that down!
another memory to keep dear to me.
simple, but lovely!

Another Item O' Mine

i felt like doing one more item o' mine just for the heck of it this week. this is my metal "chain" tie.

it's some type of mysterious metal circles linked together to form a chain-i think it's cute! i got it @ Claire's and it hasn't fallen apart yet believe it or not! haha!

it's a charcoal color and fun to wear for an edge, although it's sooo slinky it tends to curl under a lot, but that gives me an excuse to uncurl it and play with it some, haha!

but yeah, this is my 2nd item of the week! i'll have more unique and fun things to share in future weeks from my room.






What's Trapped in My Closet: Zebra Sandals!

okay, so for this week's "item in my possesion", i decided to display my zebra sandals! i got them @ target last year-one of those, "loe @ first sight" items that i just kept thinking about.

i've only worn them once, because i want to make sure that i wear the perfect outfit with them (that's how much i treasure them), haha!

but yeah, they are lovely and i love them-i might do one more item this week becasue it's fun to share my closet's belongings.

shall blog waaay more in a few!

toodles for now.

Review: Orphan

okay, so i ended up seeing the Orphan last weekend. and i must admit it was pretty good! i kept hearing it was scary, but it wasn't @ all. the plot was good-so now i put that in the catergorey of, "Decent Horror Flick" up there w/"The Descent". congrats "Orphan"!

the little girl who played Esther did such a good job! i didn't flich @ all the entire movie, because they did those stupid uncalled for loud noises to try and scare you. it had a little suspense...great plat though! and one word to subscribe this moive: realistic and brutal (okay then, two)! to me, it would make me really look into the child i'm going to adopt to make sure all's well, haha!

i'd reccommend it though! and i'd see it again if i had the chance. oh yeah! i saw it w/my boyfriend and called a small bizzare part all the way in the beginning that made my boyfriend say, "no WAY will that happen!...who thinks of that anyway??".

but i called it, haha! that made me happy...oh, and there are guessable moments too-but still good!

i highly reccomend it as a decent horror flick!

Magazines Can Be Diaries Too

i have many stories that i've been inspired to tell since my trip to Chicago and back. the two days were probably one of the best feelings i've had in a while... great times! haha.


so i decided to put each story that popped up in my head as seperate stories so it wouldn't be too drawn-out ALLLL in one post, haha!

while my dad, brother, and i stalled waiting for the burger joint to open, we walked around in a Wal-Mart nearby. we were looking through electronics and the books were right next to that section, so i decided to see all the magazines they carried. (i was hoping to find a NYLON in there but didn't, hahaha!). i did find teen vogue and liked what i saw in the nintendo magazine, but it made me think about how my taste in magazines changed.

@ first, i'm sure many girls started w/magazines like, "GL" or "J-14" (...i think that's the name for them...). ya know, those magazines with a million celebs on the front cover that makes it look like a busy college?? always filled with, "is he into you?" quizzes and around 15 smackers ads...

then you move on to bigger better things- "seventeen", "teen people", and "cosmo girl" (those are what i've read anyway). @ this point you're like, "NOW we're talkin'!" so much advice and fashion in the colums that you can't help but to love!

and now, while i was down there, i purchased my first teen vogue. and i've also graduated to NYLON, as mentioned a million times in my blog!

i don't know...when you look back, it's just like a diary of how much you've matured and grown.
