Trends.


So, this isn't really for you guys out there, but if you like it, whatevs.

Love it:

• tribal prints
• lace shirts
• turquoise/coral
• colored shorts

Leave it:

• bright neon pink.  sorry chicks, I just don't think it works.
• peter pan collars.  they look restricting? idk...
• full length rompers.  back to the old days with footie pajamas, eh?

So those are myyy thoughts for the evening.  Nothing more, nothing less.

Hey, figured out a "creative" way to end this post.  Actually, kind of lame-o, but it'll have to do.  So my new extended family is over visiting and I feel painfully young.  There's my dad, his fiance, his parents, her mom, her two daughters.  They're both amaaaazingly gorgeous, but there's a weird age gap between us; about 5 years with one and 7 with the other.

ANYWAY, tonight, I really am the youngest.

My answer?  It doesn't.


What do I turn in?  Some crazy BS that puts the little check in the box and makes her happy.


Math is... well, math.  I might get it in class (or at least pretend I do) but the moment I get home and start my homework, ZOOM.Out the window it goes.


Now, I guess I'll go along with it.


Zoom off into dream land, fellow youngsters, and remember--tonight, we are young.
