Guilty pleasure..
So this post is long overdue! I have been distracted with grad transitions ( I am still not done, but I am almost finished). It's absolute bullshit. For my final reflection I will write about what bullshit it is but I will do my best to make it as well written as possible so that I don't seem like a whiny brat. I mean, I understand how it is helpful because it gives us a chance to plan out our futures. I do not think that it should be mandatory for graduation though. For years people have been graduating without making a fucking scrapbook, which is essentially what GT is. And now students have to have a certain number of volunteer or work hours and a certain number of hours of physical activity. Once again, it's a good idea, it's helpful but is it necessary? I don't think so. I think that the school destrict should stop trying to invade my life. They can dictate what I do at school, but it pisses me off when they try and run my life at home. I realize my feelings regarding GT are irrelevant and I probably should have just finished it early instead of dragging it out for as long as possible. But why take the easy road? No, I get a real thrill out of making things as tedious and painful as I possibly can. So here I sit in the career centre at school "doing grad transitions" and I am feeling pretty good. The sun is shining through the windows and if I don't look at the grey skies I can pretend that the weather is actually nice and springlike. Still, it's April in rainy British Columbia so I'd better take what I can get.
On a completely different note, my newest obsession is America's Next Top Model. My PVR consists of ANTM, Gossip Girl, Project Runway, and Vampire Diaries. I am such a cliche. It's just so good! It's deliciously shallow. Nigel Barker. British accent. He's old but he's my favorite part of the show. These are some of my favorite pictures from Cycle 15 and 16. These pictures are so beautiful!
She looks like Elizabeth Taylor in her prime. This one is so great. I loved all of the mermaid photos but this one is my absolute favorite. Her hair is so dark and with her ivory skin and dark lips she looks completely striking.
Jane was my favorite model of Cycle 15. Her face is so heartbreakingly beautiful. She looks very commercial but I think she could have done high fashion as well. She is still very unique looking. I love this picture, I love the pearls and her expression is so innocent and lovely.
This is Jacqlen Poole's "Crazy for Makeup" picture. I love it! She's such a sweetie-pie on the show [I'm sad that she was sent home :( ] but she looks like a freakin' psycho in this shot. She looks like the joker! Except, obviously much prettier.
Jacqlen again. I just love her!
I just love it. What can I say. Tyra Banks is to me what Oprah Winfrey is to my mom. Love her!

I like this picture, it's so beautiful! Hannah is my favorite model on cycle 16. She's the hippie girl and she cracks me up. And she was crying for real during this photoshoot. I would cry too if I had live bees flying all over me!
This is a cool picture. It's so edgy and intense, I love it! It's Molly in the "Crazy for Accessories" picture and it's taken infront of the Bates Hotel from "Psycho". Molly isn't my favorite because she kind of comes off as a whiny brat on ANTM, however, I do like this picture.
This was my favorite of the "Crazy" pictures. This was obviously, "Crazy for Handbags". It's so Alice and Wonderland which I love. Her face is priceless! She looks insane like she has been caught slinking off with all the bags at the tea party. And it's Hannah and she's my fave.
I just love it. What can I say. Tyra Banks is to me what Oprah Winfrey is to my mom. Love her!

10 things about me
Three of my best friends did this on their blog so I thought I'd do it on mine too.
1) I am a "handful" according to my mom and a few other people. I tend to overshare. I just can't keep how I feel to myself. If I am really angry or sad it's not a mystery. I am not whiny but I can't not tell people how I feel. I can be jealous and I have the attention span of a gnat. Seriously, patience is something I need to work on. Oh, and I want it to be all about me all the time. No, not to that extreme, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't like the attention on me sometimes. I feel like a bitch now for listing all these annoying traits of mine but I thought I'd get these out of the way. :) At least I am honest.
2) My family and friends mean everything to me! I love them all so much. I have a wonderful family and the best friends I could ask for. Most people are lucky to have only one truly good friend. I am really lucky to know them, I always feel completely myself around them, they seriously feel like family to me.
3) I love music and fashion. I love fashion and it's everywhere. It seriously excites me and I think about it all the time. I love music so much I seriously waste way too much time just sitting and listening to music and I love singing. I don't think I'd want to do it for a career but it's something I want to do in my spare time for all my life.
4) I am not religious but I am spirtitual. I am not any particular religion but I do believe in God and I think that it gives me strength that I do.
5) I really do care a lot about people whether they are my loved ones or people I barely know.
6) School is not my thing, or at least not right now. I am blessed to have the opportunity to be educated but I can't say that I enjoy learning about things that mean absolutely nothing to me. I try to remember that it's an ends to a means but it can be hard for me to stay motivated when I am not interested in what I am learning. I think I will enjoy school more next year when I go to University because I will be learning about something I am passionate about.
7) I used to be scared to graduate and now I am really excited! Maybe it helps that I got my grad dress. I feel like I am ready to move on now.
8) I really want to fall in love. How cheesy is it that I just admitted that on a website? Pretty cheesy.
9)I am such a yoga nut. I love it! It's a nice escape from everyday things and it is a surprisingly good workout!
10) Loyalty is important to me. It would take a lot for someone I am good friends with to lose my friendship and I mean A LOT. I would say I am a forgiving person and a loyal person and I expect no less from the people I am close to ( but I have the best friends ever so this isn't an issue with them).
