I'm having a tea party! Care to join?

Here's a little challenge for anyone reading, I invite you to join me in a little goal I have for myself. Make sure to make a least 5-10 minutes a day for yourself to relax. I know at least for myself I forget to just calm down and do something I enjoy. I like to read and drink tea or surf the internetz for cat pictures. Do it! Whats the worst that could happen? 
I actually love this sweater, I wear it to bed almost everynight. I got it at a thrift store a couple years ago, its a huge home made wool sweater with a giant horse on it. Gotta love cheesy stuff like that!

Hope you all have a lovely night, please tell me what you think of the snazzy new header/layout! - Joan

Romance is boring.

Hello hello.
I'm feeling a bit better, I've just been under the weather but I think its clearing up. 
I've finally gotten settled and used to the new house and I really do adore my new room. I promise to take pictures and do an 50 cent tour :) (just kidding, its free). I've also started my online course,  writers craft. Its nice to be able to take a course that they don't offer at my school but stay at BCI.
That's all I can really update you on. I know that I haven't really done any "offical" outfit posts but I'm trying to stay clear of being a fashion blog. This is just an online 'journal' shall I say. I mean I have a diary sure but this is kind of my way of showing who I am to others who care to listen! I can't thank all the people who have left nice comments enough. 

 - Goodnight!

I’m having a minor emotional breakdown.


I was upset and just crying in the kitchen about my future and how I feel like its slipping out of my hands. Then my youngest brother Alex who has a slight case of autism gave me a hug and a kiss for letting me borrow his pencil. I cut up his dinner for him and watched him do his homework for a bit. Sometimes the small things help drown out the big things.
Ps: outfit posts and whatnot should be back soon. Once I clear my head.

Harry Potter Day



My school is having a Halloween themed spirit week. Today was 'dress like a Harry Potter character' day. I was so excited because i'm a huge Harry Potter fan. Its just my life, and of course I have my Hermione costume that I always wore to premiers that I haven't been able to wear since the last movie came out. So i got excited and had one of the best school days ever!

Home is where you are.

Hello! If you read my adventures from yesterday you would have got my frustration about having to pick up my birthday presents. As soon as I got it I went home and changed. Yeah, i'm that girl who changes her outfit halfway though the day. I ordered from urban outfitters, I got three dresses, a pair of shoes, a journal, a banner and a skirt. 
Have a nice night!

My day in crude illustrations .

Today was weird.
Not like normal, "oh shit I found a penny but it stuck to the ground omg so weird i should post a status about this" kind of weird. More like a grandpa window face planting, staying home,nine o clock birthday having, spongebob watching, mail never arriving weird.


Alright, so i'll start at the beginning. Some shenanigans including me offending some of my easily offended friends started yesterday. Stuff kind of snow balled down the hill and now I might as well legally change my name to Hitler because i'm liked just about as much. Then I wake up this morning scared shitless by my alarm clock which plays "No sleep till Brooklyn," from the Beastie Boys, (Punny right?). This sounds awesome as hell until it wakes you up and you're convinced that someone is yelling at you.
So I then proceed to run to the bathroom and puke my guts out, fun stuff. No idea why, but my dad let me stay home. I still get that feeling that you did when you were little when your parents told you that you could stay home from school. "HOLY SHIT THIS IS GOING TO BE FUCKLOADS OF FUN."
Yeah, seventeen in two days and still convinced that staying home is the best thing since god damn sliced bread. Anyways so I got to stay home to I went the hell back to bed. I guess I slept though the mail man knocking on the door because I didn't get my birthday presents that I ordered online. I've been waiting for three weeks so looking in the mail box and seeing that taunting "we missed you" shit that Purolator puts in there when you don't answer the door.  Condescending assholes. Seriously, I could of been dead in my bedroom and they just leave a goddamn note telling me to go pick it up and pay more money even though I already paid shipping! Seriously, its like that scene in The Catcher In The Rye, when Holden says that his gravestone will probably have "fuck you" written on it. Mine may as well.
               
So after waking up at eleven, I find out this devastating news and call my dad. He then gets my grandpa to pick me up and bring me to the Purolator place in my town. My grandpa is kind of on the looney side and when I say that I mean he's an absolute nut bar. I love him but holy nuts is he ever crazy. After getting there they proceed to tell me that they don't have it and my towns post office does instead. Which means I can't pick it up until tomorrow, well shit.

 Alright so i'm already frustrated but then my grandpa walks right into the goddamn glass window right beside the door. For whatever reason, he just did. I really had to exercise my self control because I wanted to laugh so hard he did seem pretty mad so I didn't. It hurts my stomach every time I think about it because it was hilarious. I'm a terrible person, so what?
          
Once he dropped me off I was such a wreck, I laughed for ten goddamn minutes. I really had to get it out of my system because I spent the entire ride home looking like I was going to die. I was licking my lips to try to muffle the laughter. So once my manic laughing attack was over, I did what any mature woman home alone would do. I watched Spongebob Squarepants in my kitty pajamas.



Moral of the story, I need to grow up, pick up my mail tomorrow and get some more mature pjs.
