New Blog?!

Hey there sparkly cupcake dragons :D

I have some news!

Next year I will be in high school and I want to start fresh in the blogging world.  This means that I am making a new blog!  It's gonna be about everything.  You might know that I currently have two blogs, one about school & life (Misadventures) and one about beauty & craziness (this one!)  My new blog will be about all that.

It is not yet open to the public, but it has tabs for different things:

Sneak Peek!
So if you want to keep seeing just my beauty blogging, you'll be able to hit the Girly Girl tab and all my posts tagged *fashion* will come up!  EXCITING!!  I didn't even know that was possible until today!!  So fetch ;)  But if you want to see what's been happening in my life recently, then you can look under My Silly Life.  Or say you want to see some stuff that is totally irrelevant to life!  Go to Randomness!  See how AWESOME that is??

OK, I'm just too excited about a blog that isn't even ready yet.  This is just the beginning.  *New Blog* is under construction still.  Hard hats required.

Also, *New Blog* doesn't yet have a name, so leave your suggestions in the comments!

Since *New Blog* has all these cool tabs, it means that I am going to stop posting on Addicted to Glitter around the end of the school year (May).  But I created the cool tabs so you don't have to miss out on all my crazy beauty obsessions :D  Once the new blog is ready, I'll link it so you can follow me there.

I love you all! <3

Top 10 Tuesday: Snacks


This week's Top 10 Tuesday is about my favorite snacks...which is totally probably weird, but I was out of ideas!  These are mostly snacks I eat during the summer, because I can't even think about hot food when it's 90ยบ outside!! :D

10. CCCM. Chocolate Chips, Cheerios, Marshmallows.  This is a staple snack in our family, and I like it but sometimes, especially during the summer, I end up just taking the Cheerios :)  I don't know why, but I'm always trying to be healthier during the summer.

9. Cereal. I don't even put milk in it, just Rice Krispies or Cheerios (see above) or Crispix or whatever is in the house.  WARNING: If you think these are weird, just wait.



8. Cookies/Brownies.  OK, I know I just said how I like to be more health conscious especially during the summer, but if we have cookies or brownies in the house, forget that, that's what I'm gonna go for!  They're just sooooo gooood....



7. Raspberries/Blueberries.  I love fruit.  Love, love, love it so much!!  Raspberries and blueberries are really awesome, but I don't reach for them as much because they can be, I guess temperamental?  I don't know, sometimes blueberries can be sour or raspberries can be squishy and gross.  But when they're ripe and perfect, I totally love them!



6. Bagels.  Is this weird?  Sometimes I'll just have half a bagel and some cream cheese.  It's good...



5. Nectarines.  I don't like fuzzy fruits, they feel so weird in my mouth.  So I don't like peaches, but I do like nectarines!  So I eat whole nectarines a lot.  Had one for lunch actually.  Yum.



4. Strawberries.  I love strawberries, they are my second-favorite summer fruit.  Anyone in my family knows that strawberries and me are basically the same thing...most are sweet, but sometimes they can be a little tart too.  I really like strawberry lemonade, too.



3. Bread.  My mom bakes her own bread, so I'll eat any bread she has in the house :)  But I also will just eat store bread, or toast it and smear on some avocado (if we have any) and sprinkle it with salt and pepper.  I also eat avocado toast for breakfast or lunch, it's very, cross-mealtime I guess.  But bread is just so good...I know you have to think I'm crazy, but if you've had my mom's bread you would get it!!  Promise!!



2. Smoothies.  My friend and I made smoothies yesterday.  What I love about smoothies are that it's a drink, but it's fruit and goodness, and actually kinda fills you up.  Yesterday's smoothies were a combination of strawberries, blueberries, milk, ice, and vanilla and blueberry yogurts.  Ooh man it was good.



1. Watermelon!  Yes, watermelon is my number one favorite snack!  I could eat watermelon cubes all day.  Cannot say enough good things about it!  Don't even get me started. :D



So there ya go, my (somewhat weird) assortment of favorite snacks!  Love ya,

Saturday

So, I was going to have a fashion post today, but I couldn't think of anything.  My brain is mush.



Instead, this post will be about something totally different from fashion...actually, I should just be doing it instead of blogging about it...

Cleaning that monster that is known as, "My Bedroom".

Now, this task is already hard because my preschool-age sister lives in there with me.  And she is not at all interested in cleaning up.  So I have to over-compensate in the first place to keep clean.  And when I'm getting to bed at ten every night and all I want to do is read and then sleep, the mere act of putting the day's clothes away seems hard.  So they most often get set by my bed or on my dresser, as I think They'll get put away in the morning.

My room isn't this messy :)


Not so much so.  Suddenly I realize that all the stuff has been piling up and when I go to finally put it away, I can't remember...is it clean still?  Or was I gonna put it in the laundry? So everything is automatically categorized as "DIRTY" and then somehow I have no more clothes in my closet and have to wear a my oldest tank top instead of the new t-shirt and shorts that I wanted to wear in the first place.  This happened the other day, where I had to wear shorts into the very cold, very windy city.  But we were lucky and it wasn't as cold as usual (phew!!).

Then there's the random trash that somehow ends up in my room.  How on earth did that paper get there?  Didn't I give that drawing to my brother?  And most recently, Why is there tissue paper in here?  Was I wrapping a present?

Wait.  I think I was.

Oops.

So today I started going through my room, putting dirty laundry in the basket, throwing meaningless papers away, going through stacks of old magazines that I haven't seen for years.  (Who knew we still even had my old National Geographic Kids issues from '06?)  I've decided just to toss the lot.  I don't need them anyway.  All my old American Girl magazines are already stored away, and the newest issue of any of my subscriptions are all that my magazine bin holds.



My sheets are washing now, and everyone knows that making your bed immediately makes your room look better.  After my room has been organized, I'll vacuum and move on to my closet.  That won't take long (I hope).



If you are interested in seeing my clean room, I can take pictures or do a room tour video and post it here...just comment and tell me.  Both of you followers have already seen my room though, so maybe that's kinda lame to ask :)  But I speak as if there is a larger audience.  It's more fun that way!

Speaking of, if you have just stumbled upon this blog by searching some weird keyword leave a comment!!  Or even if you are a first-time or new to this blog or my other one (more about my education and such) shoot me a comment!!

New to the blogging world?!  I'll totally follow your site :)  Just give me the URL and I'll check it out!  Blogging rocks!!

Wow.  That was a very long, very ramble-y post.  And it got kinda off-topic at the end haha!  But yeah...talk later!

Top 10 Tuesday: Summer Stuff

Heyy....so I was gone the past two Fridays.  And Last Tuesday.  But now I'm back!! <3
Top 10 Tuesday #2 is Things that I Do During Summer.  These are my favorite activities to do during summer!!

10. Blog.  I know, this sounds really horrible that this is my least favorite of my favorite things to do!!  But it's true.  Usually I blog when I'm bored or don't know what to do.  I do like to blog though...in the summer, it can just be a last resort.

9. Playing in my yard.  This would be more fun for me if it weren't so hot where I live!!  Ugh.  Don't get me wrong, I love doing stuff outside...but other stuff.  If I'm gonna run around, it will be in a sprinkler or during a water balloon fight, not just because.



8. Road trips. My family goes on a lot of day-trips.  I love to go on them, too!!  They are really fun :)  The only time I don't want to go is when I'm relaxing and having a good time...and planning on doing  nothing the entire day...and then "Hey let's go somewhere!"
But we have a good time.



7. Swimming.  Yeah buddy!  Swimming is like my ALL-TIME FAVORITE summer sport in the WORLD!!  EVER!!  Ahhhhhhh don't even get me started.  Hopefully I will go swimming this week.  Maybe even today.  I totally wish I had a pool because I would swim every day.
I'm gonna get on with the rest of my list, cause this will go on tooo long otherwise!



6. Friends.  Obviously.  I mean, what's summer without friends?!  I can do almost everything awesome during summer with friends.  I guess we could blog together too...maybe I'll do a joint blog with someone sometime.  Thinking Sidney or Rose Star or BeautyLover21?  Comment and tell me yeah?!



5. Vacation.  Well, that's what summer is.  But I mean going to the beach.  Going to a cabin in the woods.  Staying a few nights in a small town in the country.
I have done all these things.  The small town is courtesy of my friend.  I go to Santa Cruz once a year, and Monterey a ton :)  All fun stuff.  We went to Trinidad once too...awesomeness.



4. Music.  Already created my summer playlists.  Will continue to add songs to my expansive collection on my iPod.  Right now, my phone's playlist has:

Everything About You-1D
One Thing-1D
One Way or Another-Mandy Moore
Our Song-Taylor Swift
Save You Tonight-1D
Stole My Heart-1D
Stronger-Mandisa
Summertime Guys-Nikki Cleary
Tell Me A Lie-1D
Up All Night-1D

Fun stuff.

3. Long Days, Late Nights.  Long days mean more time to do everything you didn't have time to do during the school year.  So of course it's fun to cram in everything you possibly can.  Especially when one spends all day at the beach, or at Lake Tahoe, or maybe riding bikes, swimming, and jumping on trampolines.  Or even just talking on the phone.  Staying up late at sleepovers is an all-time favorite of teens all over everywhere (I think.)  Another thing that somehow ends up happening is me reading a chapter of my book...then looking up at the clock and realizing it's been two hours and quite a few more chapters than I planned on reading.



2. Sunshine.  There's something about waking up and having bright sunlight shining into my eyes that just makes my day from the start, and keeps it going all day long.  Nuff said.



1. Summer!  Everything that makes summer summer is what makes summer my favorite season of the year.  All this, and more just makes it the best year after year :)
