New Year

Hey! Sorry I haven't been on in a while! I've been really busy with job interviews, Christmas with the family, and lots of other things. But now it's the new year and I have a few resolutions. Here they are:

1. Post more on here. I feel like I don't post very much on here, so I'm going to try to post more.

2. Drink more water. I'm so unhealthy. I probably drink 3 cokes a day, which is awful for you. So I'm going to start taking a water bottle to school everyday to try to get healthier.

3. Not look like a hobo at school everyday. I swear I look awful everyday. I'm so lazy and tired all the time that I don't have enough time every morning to look decent. So I'm going to try to look better for school now.

4. Exercise. I'm very thin, and can hardly lift more than 20 pounds. So I desperately need to do something about that. I'm going to start exercising with one of my friends.

And those are my resolutions! Do you have any?

November Favorites

So since the month of November is winding down, I thought I would do a favorites for the month. So here it is!

.

1. So first, the background is black velvet. I have just been loving it for leggings or shirts or even dresses! I think it's perfect for the winter months and I wear it literally all the time. It's just so cool and different and kind of edgy. Ah I love it!

2. The first picture is of Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray. I use it when I get out of the shower at night before bed, and then in the morning again before school. It helps define beautiful beachy waves and controls frizz really well. I just love this stuff! It has sea salt from the Dead Sea and sea kelp, so it's natural and really good for your hair. This is my secret to perfect waves.

3. The next picture is of lavender lipstick. I think it looks so beautiful and provides a nice contrast with all of the dark lipsticks women wear nowadays. A good brand for this is Lime Crime. I just love how this looks and I've been on a really big lavender kick for a few months now.

4. The necklace is from Empty Casket, and it says witch on it. I bought one in silver, and I am eagerly awaiting its arrival. It's so cute and perfect for me since I am basically a witch. I love this!

5. These beautiful pants are from Gypsy Warrior. I also bought these and am waiting for them. But I just cannot wait to get these. I mean, look at that! It's like the 1970s threw up on your pants! And that's exactly the kind of look I want- vomit. (Note: Why am I so weird?) But I love bell bottoms and the pattern of these. I've seen a lot of these at Tilly's and Pacsun, too, so I think they're actually coming into style. (My style is usually the opposite of what's popular, so that surprised me.)

I hope everyone enjoyed this list, and I'm looking forward to making more! Have a beautiful December!

Feminism- Dress Codes

To me, feminism is a supporting equal rights for women. In my life as a high school student, I don't feel like I am really that discriminated against, except for dress codes.

Dress codes are utterly ridiculous. They should only have the bare minimum, like preventing wildly offensive slogans on shirts and things and making sure people actually do wear clothes. But determining how long of sleeves a person can wear or how short shorts can be is ridiculous.

These rules are mostly aimed at girls. Girls are generally the only ones who wear short shorts, and this is only because it is extremely hot outside and on buses (at least in my area). Also, girls are more apt to wear spaghetti straps or strapless shirts. What about our shoulders is so enticing? I don't understand. Boys could wear tank tops and be fine at my school but girls could not. This is blatant sexism.

My middle school principal said these rules were to keep the boys in line and undistracted. This is wrong. Why should I have to cover myself up and be uncomfortably hot just to keep the boys from "losing control"?

What schools should be doing is teaching boys to control themselves. I strongly believe that by teaching girls that it is their bodies that make boys distracted, and that they must cover up to stop this, public schools and therefore the state governments are promoting rape culture. And this must stop.

Occult

So I have recently been getting more into the occult, as I would call it. Now I am a Christian, in fact a Southern Baptist, which is a very old fashioned Christian sect. But I like to think that we can change our destinies and see what will happen, and change things through occult methods.

So I am learning how to read tarot cards as well as palms, and I think I may buy a spell book for "magic" spells. We'll see how this goes, and even if it doesn't work too well it will make an interesting conversation starter in the future.

Also, crystal healing is interesting me as well, and I usually wear a quartz chakra necklace to absorb negative energy around me and within me. I'm trying to find more crystals with healing and helping properties.

I'm looking for good luck charms from different religions, like hamsa hands or pentacles, to wear as necklaces and things.

Is anyone else interested or does anyone have any suggestions?
