Woah, it's already been over a month of summer, what?

And, within this month I haven't blogged. Hmm, I actually thought about deleting my blog ((how dumb)) but I don't think that's a great choice. Last night I had this boost of inspiration flying at me from all angles at around 5 am, and I thought about all of the things I want to accomplish over summer. Why haven't I been putting in effort? Idk I guess sometimes I think what I do isn't good enough, and that sucks because that's basically putting myself down so I doubt all of my work. Well uhm, I'm taking on summer, my blog, my youtube channel, and I'm starting to take my camera everywhere like I once used to because pictures are great. Documenting memories are great, so here is my summer so far.

I have gotten loads of nice clothing items and everything else worth being excited about so far over summer, and I'll be posting my haul videos from youtube onto here once they are edited and uploaded. I haven't gone thrifiting for a few months which I really need to do sometime soon, I'm having withdrawals seriously! I also need to tie dye some things because I have not done that since last summer, and I need to get my hands all messy and discolored. It's getting closer and closer for me to leave for college, and I'm both excited/nervous. The bay area is my home, although I haven't lived there since I was 9, but I can't wait for so many adventures there. The scenery for pictures and videos, and just getting to be involved in what I love doing everyday. Fashion. I can't wait to begin my major in fashion design, and get a job somewhere in the city. Branch out to meet new people, and enjoy my youth. I've been waiting for this day for so long (high school wasn't that great to me) and I'm going to make sure I take advantage of every opportunity given to me. BUT I'M STILL NERVOUS OKAY, STILL NERVOUS.

I've gotten back into the habit of sewing, ya see I made a velvet crop top which is cool but it's too hot to wear that. Even though I did wear it to my friend Gloria's going away party. She was (is) an exchange student from Germany, but I swear she became American. She's back out there now actually. Everyone here is going to miss her so much. We love you Glo!

I feel as though I have so much to talk about but not really. I have tons of ideas but I'm not ready to put them out on my blog yet, being that they're just jumbled in my head right now but they feel right. I kind of want to take a picture of my most recent items to post buttttttt you all will see the clothing items in outfit posts. But my other things such maybe I'll post them because I'm excited to show them! It will all be in my vids though, so either way, yeah.

Summer bonfires have been cool, I enjoy those so much. World War Z was a cool movie + I saw Monsters Uni on that same day, on a date, with a great guy named Kris. Who just so happens to be one of my close friends. Along with Mark (their arms are in my tapioca express picture up there). They're my favorite guys to hang out with, and they make my days better. I will forever be obsessed with tea, so tat Pure Leaf is just so delicious looking at that photo right now makes me want one so bad. Wow this paragraph is so random I'm trying to bunch up good things into once chunk. I'm enjoying summer, trying to enjoy my last as a "kid" you know. I don't want to let this go to waste.

I swear I'll post at least once a week from now on. No promises once school starts but I'll still try.

Happy Thursday! ~

Summer Lovin'

Hey guys i am back :3

After a long month of not blogging i am happy to say that i am on my summer break and i have been an official high school graduate for exactly one week today! The last month of school was pretty hectic, stressful, and exhausting but i made it through and im super excited to be going of to college in San Francisco at the end of August! But for now im going to have so much time to blog and make videos which is great. I want to do even more once college starts being that im majoring in Fashion Design. I'm so excited, i got my class list already and everything so yeah everything is getting pretty real and a bit scary.

I even started making the vids for my youtube channel that ive been talking about creating for so long Yes. I'll be editing them and posting them with my next blog post.

I've been pretty into black outfits lately even though its getting up there in the 90's and 100's out here. I guess i'll just have to suffer. All black with a bit of color here and there i love so much. I've been thinking about making a bunch of summer festive jewelry and maxi skirts to sell at local flea markets. I've made some for myself and i thought that making them for a bunch of people would be pretty cool and fun. I can even do it once i move because flea markets in Berkeley are my fave. I just really love flea markets really. I also want to go to a bunch of festivals and concerts this summer. I want to enjoy my last summer before real life sets in to say the least. Ahh, i'm so excited for everything coming my way.

I hope all of you are enjoying your Thursday!

What a bright time, it's the right time, to rock the night away

 I don't know what it is (Actually I do) but I've been utterly obsessing over the 50's 60's and 70's eras a whole lot more than normal. All of my inspiration lately has been coming from everything revolving around these times. I can't listening to Mickey & Sylvia, The Beach Boys, Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Heart...the list goes on. I'm genuinely obsessed. I'm freaking out because it was all so great. Like I can't handle the feeling I get while listening to music from those era's watching movies, looking at videos, pictures..even listening to people share their experiences from their, it's all so much to take in and I absolutely love it.

Now for all of the Christmas related pictures. I'm in love with vintage 70's Christmas pictures. I just spent like an hour browsing through some and you know how people say "A picture tells a thousand words"? Well yes, look at those people. Really look, don't just glance. Stare at them and imagine what it felt like to be them, with their family, around the ones they loved. They look happy. You can stare into their eyes and see pure joy and happiness. I love that. I love that sometimes their really are times where there is nothing to worry about, and maybe it should be like that all the time. Maybe people shouldn't worry at all. It does no good for you, right? Yeah.

To be completely honest today was one of the best Thursdays I've had at school in quite a while. To start things off, it's Holiday week, hence my red & green wardrobe and my reindeer antlers (Thanks Jared). Today was actually our "Deck The Halls" themed spirit day, which means dressing like it's Christmas time to sum it all up. People came (Mostly my leadership program we're all great) decked out in Santa Hats, Red&Green, Reindeer Antlers, Elves, etc. It was pretty perfect. Our school is also really festive and decorated nice for the first time since I've been in high school. It really feels like the Holiday Season there, which is great because I enjoy the Holidays a lot. 

Half of the time, it's sunny like it's July, but freezing like it January and I think it's really annoying. I hate sunny but cold weather because it just doesn't feel right. I love gloomy, stormy, freezing cold weather man. That's the best. We haven't got a lot of that yet. Oh California, I love you so, don't you know?

I hope everyone had a great Thursday, xx

I am human and I need to be loved, just like everyone else does

Once again a late post that should've been posted earlier this week.

I'm on Thanksgiving break now, so I have more time to blog.

I'm really excited, this break is needed. School was getting extremely hectic.

Senior year is a headache, guys.

Happy Saturday!
