Who knew little Icing Thingies could sing so well?

Fashion Friday!


I decided to surf the web for new pictures of fall items I liked! Here's what I came up with: The white jacket is warm, and is not too puffy! I like it a lot!

The flower print on this shirt is vintage and romantic. I really like this also, because it has flowers on it, but fall flowers.

Finally, these shoes are a toned-down version of the sky-high sneakers I keep seeing in fashion magazines.
Just looking at all this stuff makes me want to head to the mall this instant!

Big Toe says: Oh, Good Grief.

Beauty Thursday: Beauty Backfire

Lovely day today. But I've got something else I'd rather talk about. So:
As I currently don't wear makeup, I thought I would talk about the how you act kind of beautiful. NOT inside-real-beauty kind of beautiful. Personally, I don't believe that doing good deeds and being a wholesome person does anything in the way of beauty. Not that it's not great to act that way. It's just that it's not the right thing to do to solve your beauty problems.
As I get older, I notice that girls seem to think that being "mature" means being snobby and cutting out anything that could possibly be embarassing. This is NOT maturity. Think about it. Isn't it a little childish? To toss away anything that you think could give you a bad name?
In the dictionary, the word that fits "I'm so mature" means having reached an advanced stage of emotional or mental developement, which is a far cry from the "I don't know!" acts I'm seeing now. I think real maturity is taking what comes to you in an optimistic and smart way, and making the most of what you have. I mean, sure, it helps to be beautiful on the outside, but if you do the snob thing, people will think you're a snob.
Also, lots of people I know are boy crazy. Being not boy crazy myself, I feel I am destined to givve the best advice, as I can see what fools these girls are making of themselves, and exactly why it isn't working.
Tips:
1. Don't giggle too much. It makes you look weird.
2. Don't act stupid. It's really embarrassing to have a stupid friend. What about a stupid girlfriend?
3. Don't wear loads and loads of makeup. It's better to be more confident about what you really look like. Caked-on makeup just looks insecure.
4. Finally, I know a whole bunch of boys who are 16, and they still give eachother noogies and play chopsticks. REAL mature....

Ha! Look what I made on Puricute!



Is it not CUTE?
Big Toe was unavailable for comment.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh!!!!


While browsing the Uglydoll website, I came upon these cute postcards (which I will procede to must-have) I thought they were so darn cute that I had to post a picture of one of the postcards. Cute, huh?
Big Toe says: CUTE!!!!!! (Okay, so this isn't a real quote, but I'm sure some famous person said this at one time or another.)

YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

Full day of school today! Goodie! Anyways, I have decided that from now on I will have a stuffy sidekick. I will pick one stuffed animal from my stash, in this case BIG TOE! He will make a comment for every post that neatly summs up how I feel today, and it will be a quote from the web. Yippee!
I was wondering what I should talk about today, so I guess I'm going to have to have a random fact day. Great. Five random facts from somewhere within the layers of my head.
1. The dinosaur T-Rexs' teeth were roughly the size of bananas.
2. Velcro was derrived from a type of pricker found in the woods, which has a unique way of sticking very hard because of the many hooks on it.
3. Your spine contracts during the day, so it's best to take measurements of yourself around 12:00 pm.
4. There are over 3000 characters in Mandarin Chinese.
5. If you speed in the road, it only gets you there a little faster, but your tires wear out 50% faster.
See? Ha! I really don't have anything to talk about today.
Oh, and in choir, we're singing CHRISTMAS CAROLES! In SEPTEMBER! Ahhhhhhh!
Big Toe says: The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it.

Super Strange Dentist Appointment

Yes! I went to the dentist! My teeth are still aching, ouch.
I am going to choir today (just like I do every year) and when I get back, my throat will probably be aching from singing very,very high. Never mind about that, though!
I've discovered a new music artist that I really like. Feist! Her song 1234 is on the new ipod nano commercial, that's where I saw it first.

Cool, no? Anyhoo, today was pretty good, all except the dentist. Something about haveing somebody else clean your teeth really creeps me out.

Pretty Super Happy Monday


Well, I suppose any day where you have to get up early and do school isn't a Really Super Happy.
But then again, I got to eat pizza for breakfast. That was very happy.
Okay, get ready for the play by play:
I do school
I eat lunch
I do more school
I type this post
I cannot predict the future.
Well.... Not much to contemplate. YET! I'm going to a Pathfinders Meeting and we'll be doing year planning so that's good. Maybe. Not.
I really enjoy reading Calvin and Hobbes. I was reading some of their comics this morning and I thought it would be nice to post one.
Hooray, also, a picture of totoro would be in order. If I had one. Rats.

Postings For Super Happy Saturday and Sunday

Okay, here is Saturday's post!!
Right, this is my blog.
I know how to make websites, and after ages of making them and stuff, I decided to make a blog. Just to see if I could do it. So I'm writing down my thoughts every day in the hopes that someone will read them. Yay.
As today is Saturday, and at my house it is MOVIE NIGHT (this phrase is followed by several minutes of loud cheering) I would like to insert a youtube video. Yay again. Now, this video is nothing special, it just happens to be something I like to see every once in a while to cheer me up, so here goes.

The Mystery Box!!! YAY!!!!! Just the epitome of sophisticated humor. NOT! Anyhoo, 3 1/2 stars? PLEASE?

And here is Sunday's.
Today I went to a beach cleanup, and what we had to clean up was pretty digusting. YUCK. However, in order to be as Super Happy as possible, I kept a super happy disposition (even when someone in our group found the 200th cigarette stub. Never mind, the highlight of my day is that we bought some ICE CREAM CONES! Yipeee! And at least the great canadian shoreline cleanup counts toward my communtiy service award.
You people need to have a good picture to look at, so I will upload one. Soon.
Okay, so here are some random pictures!




Explanation for such strange pictures:
1. Since thanksgiving is on the way, and all the turkey pictures were ugly, I thought it appropriate to find some pictures of vegetables.
2. Because those vegetables needed something to eat them, I got the dinosaurs. so there.
