Love/Hate Relationship.

I am not feeling fond of driver's ed, I do however totally love The Teen Vogue Handbook!

Hey There, Fabulous.

I begin driver's ed tomorrow, which means busy busy busy.

Warm Wishes.

I had a great weekend. My sleepover went well, Halloween was fun, and my birthday was great.

I got a lot of compliments on my Minnie Mouse costume, and got a good deal of candy.

I got most of the things I talked about wanting. I got the House of Harlow sunburst ring (way bigger than I expected it to be), the Teen Vogue handbook, the Who What Wear book, Rachel Zoe's book, gold satin pillow cases, sweats (everyone is pushing me to start wearing sweats), the Coastal Scents 88 warm palette, and YSL parisienne perfume (smells amazing). And the thing I totally didn't expect, was that my parents told me I could redo the floor in my room. I've lived in this house since I was only around 1 (15 years!), which means the carpet has gotten it's fair share of stains over time. I'm not sure if I'd want to re-carpet, or go with hardwood flooring.

My day is winding down now, so I'm watching Styl'd (it's a show about people working with celebrity stylists, it's on MTV, so I don't know what to think yet), and I'm going to paint my nails OPI Matte in Russian Navy.

Something Insightful.

As I've probably mentioned a million times by now, my birthday is on Sunday. Sixteen has always been an age regarded as a big deal it doesn't mean your an adult, or make you of legal age for anything, but it's still huge enough to garner people spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on parties and gifts (I've seen a lot of My Super Sweet 16 lately). I'm not spending that kind of money, or even doing anything extravagant, but I guess all the hype makes this one feel special anyway.

I feel a little old turning sixteen, I remember watching so many television shows and movies with characters who were sixteen, and they always seemed so much older than me. (I've always been a big fan of teen soaps and movies that take place in high schools.) Now I'll be their age, which is kind of exciting and weird. Of course, the second I start to feel old I'm brought back to reality by the fact that I still can't get my license until May. (People with late birthdays: feel my pain?)

As my birthday and the weekend approaches I'm getting more and more excited. Friday should be a lot of fun, my plans for the weekend are a go, and I've made sure to stock up on candy and soda to ensure lots of girlie fun. (Suggestions still welcome!)

On a pretty much unrelated note, other than the fact that Halloween is approaching, what do you plan to dress up as for Halloween?

(The photo may not make sense to you guys, but it's a screen cap from the movie Sleepover, so it made sense to me!)

The party/sleepover is tomorrow, so you can't expect a post. I'll be trying to prepare everything beforehand, but I'll give feedback on Saturday.

Over The Hump.

The first half of the semester is just about done, and although the week isn't quite over, it's fast approaching the exciting weekend.

Until then I have homework to do, a haircut to get, sleep to catch up on, rooms to clean, plans to finalize, and a costume to finish. All very important tasks to keep me busy!

Love always. I have an introduction paragraph calling my name.

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.
