Tire Me Out.

Mid-terms are really knocking me out, but I have a half day of school on Thursday and then I'll be totally done with mid-terms. It'll be a tough week, but I have a lot of good things going on too, so those should get me through it. Girlie sleepover on Friday, Trick-or-treating on Saturday, and family/birthday stuff on Sunday.

I'm still in search of suggestions for the sleepover, so if you have any fun activities or good movie suggestions, I would be thankful!

Hope your weeks are going well and that everyone is getting enough sleep and has amazing Halloween plans in the works.

That Is The One To My Heart.

My dad returned from a trip today with presents in hand. A key necklace for both me and my mom. They aren't really the Tiffany ones in the picture, but until I find the memory card for the camera, those will have to do. They're both about the size of the smaller necklace in the picture. Mine is really cute and girlie, and the one he gave my mom is a little more simple. I'll be sure to get a picture of the exact necklace when I can because I'm quite smitten, I'm even planning to wear it tomorrow.

A few other things...
I started buying parts for my Halloween costume, so far I've got hot pink lipstick, false eyelashes, white gloves, and a big pink bow.
I finally cleaned my room, and made progress with the magazines I have piling up to read.

This week will probably be a little busy. I have mid-terms Tuesday and Wednesday (oh no!) and then of course there is Halloween, and my birthday on Sunday.

Speaking of my birthday, I'm not doing a full blown party, but I'll probably have a few girls over on Friday. Good girlie movie suggestions as well as activities are more than welcome! I'd love to hear them.

The Best Way.

I spent my day being a little lazy and relaxing. In the morning I caught myself up on Degrassi and then I went for a manicure. I got OPI Lincoln Park At Midnight (different than Lincoln Park After Dark), it's a little hard to make out in the picture, but it's really pretty. It's a great dark purple shade, perfect for fall. While I was there I got my eyebrows done, and it totally made my day. Which is a little superficial, but they'd been bugging me for a while because last time I got them done they turned out poorly, so I've been waiting for them to get back to normal.

The rest of my day was very unproductive, my room is still a mess and I still have magazines to get to, but I suppose that is how weekends really should be!

This post is a little late because time got away from me, I would've posted on Saturday, but now it's actually Sunday. It was before twelve when I was going to post, but then I remembered I needed to check movie times, so I did that first. I wanted to see Whip It, but it already isn't playing anywhere! I can't believe it's out of theaters so fast, I was disappointed, but oh well. I'll have to find a new way to spend my Sunday. Maybe a little shopping?

Make Up Your Mind.

My Friday night plans I mentioned yesterday were axed, and have been bumped to next week. Except now were going to the moves on Saturday and going trick-or-treating afterwards. I was thinking that last year would be my final year of trick-or-treating, but when it was brought up, turns out I can't resist.

If these plans actually work out, I'm about 80% sure of my costume. I've decided to be Minnie Mouse because it'll be cute and easy to construct. I'm going to be a slightly more glitzy version and wear my homecoming dress, black tights, white gloves, mouse ears, and a big bow. And of course really long eyelashes will be a necessity! If you have plans for Halloween, what are you being?

Get It Together, Gals.

I believe me and my friends are going to see The Stepfather tomorrow night, I say that I believe we are because they aren't exactly the best plan makers. Hopefully all goes well and it actually happens, because of course I want to support a movie featuring someone from Gossip Girl. (Even if I'm not the biggest Dan fan.)


What I'll wear to the movies is almost an indefinite as the plans. The weather has made it a little hard to plan for outfits lately, I've been shivering in my boots one day and sweating in my leather jacket the next day. I'll probably compromise with something light, but cozy, like a nice cardigan and tights combo. Maybe even a loud pair of tights would be fun.

TGIAF
(Thank god it's almost Friday!)

PS, We have two computers in our house. A family one and the one in my room. I always post from the one in my room, so I really only see what things look like on my screen. On my screen the pictures I post fill up all the available room, but I noticed on the other computer it makes the pictures look really small (in comparison, anyway). I'm not sure what is up with it, but let me know how they look to you. Blogger seems to cute off pictures that are wider than around 660 px, so I'm not sure what exactly I can do. (And I'm uploading them on tinypic, not on blogger, but it cuts them off anyway when I post.)

Get To Work.

Somehow my room manages to become a total mess in no time, especially during the school year. During the summer I'll pick up the little messes, but during the school year I let them build up for about a week, and it's surprising how bad it gets. Lots of makeup, clothes, and shoes strewn about.

My homework is finished fairly early tonight, and I'd like to be in bed by twelve, which means I have around a half an hour to clean.

(The picture isn't really related to the post, it's just awesome. Unrelated pictures have been a theme lately, sorry.)

Keeping with the unrelated theme, I am totally in love with the OPI suede You Don't Know Jacques polish I mentioned on Sunday. It's this awesome matte polish that still has glitter in it. The matte finish is really fun, but if you get bored with it half way through the week you can just add a coat of topcoat. Now I can't wait to experiment with matte nails more.

Back With a Vengeance.

I had a day or two where I was feeling better, but now my little cold is back. (Which is why I didn't post yesterday, I was going to bed early when I remembered I hadn't posted yet.)

I'll be awfully happy when this week is over, because I really have to try my hardest to resist urges to show up to school in my pajamas. Luckily, I think I've managed to still look cute, so far anyway. Tomorrow I think I'll just take a note from Kate and deck out in jewelry.


Looking on the bright side, I know my birthday is fast approaching because I received my birthday email from Sephora. I'll definitely make a point of going to Sephora soon to pick up this cute little trio.

Hope you're all in good health, and just in case keep hand sanitizer on hand. Colds seem to be going around like crazy.
