march favourites 2013.

Hey hey! It's time for my March favs! Is it weird that I had that line planned out in my head? Anways..

It's time for what I've been loving this March!

1. To-Do Chalkboard

So this is basically my life since I got it on vacation during March break. It's this really awesome jukebox shaped chalkboard that I got in the dollar section at Walmart. I'm so obsessed with it because I've always wanted a chalkboard but I couldn't find one small enough, but this is the best!

2. One of a kind Show

I rarely ever read the newspaper but when I do, I find some interesting stuff. I came across this article talking about a one of a kind show coming soon to an area near mine! When I showed my parents they thought it was a great idea! We found some many cool one of a kind pieces! I got one thing that I'm absolutely in love with. Here's the link. Isn't it cute?

3. China Glaze Nail Polishes

If you are a nail polish fanatic like me, then you know China Glaze is one of the best nail polish brands out there. So when I was on vacation, my cousin and I dropped by the local Sally's Beauty Supply to check out all the 50% off clearance stuff. And there was this WHOLE bin of nice China Glaze polish for $0.99-$3.29 each! But even better! At the check out every nail polish we got including the $3.29 ones were all $0.49 each! What a steal! I have no idea if this sale is still going on, but if it is, go take advantage! (In photo from left to right: Jungle Queen, Starboard, Exotic Encounters, Fast Track).

4. Carrie Diaries Inspired Bag

I made this bag a couple months ago, and I knew that when I went on vacation I was going to bring it with me. I brought it with me everywhere, and I love it. Best DIY I've ever made.

5. Purple Converse

I'm always very lazy when it comes to putting on shoes. Hence why my old pair of converse have a rip on the side that makes it look like a dog went at my shoe. But it was my own doing. However, when I went on vacation we went to this Converse outlet and I got a new pair! They're just plain purple and I love them! I just hope I don't fall back into my lazy pattern... :P

6. Myrtle Beach, SC

When my parents broke the news to me that we wouldn't be going to Florida this year, I was broken. Not actually, but you know. We had been going to Florida for as long as I remember and I didn't want to go to South Carolina. What was even in South Carolina? But, I actually enjoyed myself! We brought some of our family (See post here. And I really loved it! Go check out South Carolina!

7. Coldplay Live 2012.

I got this movie for Christmas 2012, and I never watched it.. Why? Not because I don't like Coldplay (I love them), but I can never sit through a movie, but this I actually did. It was soooooooooooooooooooooo amazing. It was so good. I love all the songs, especially Viva La Vida. I also learned that Chris Martin's voice is ALOT deeper than I thought. Which is not bad at all. Not at all.

Alright, those are my non-music favourites, so here are my favourite songs of March:

  • On Top of the World and Radioactive by Imagine Dragons

    OH MY GOSH I LOVE THESE SONGS SOOO MUCH. That's all.

  • Tell Me Why by Taylor Swift

    This song is old-ish, but I love it. It's soo good.

  • Mirrors by Justin Timberlake

    He's done it again.

  • When I Was Your Man by Bruno Mars

    I don't know, this song is just amazing.

    And those are all my March favourites! See you all next month!

    not so long post + vacation!

    Hey everyone! I haven't talked to you all in a while! How's everyone's life going? Mine's a-ok. The last time I posted was on Chris Martin's birthday which was so long ago! Anyways.

    Last week was my spring break and it was fun! We spent it with my aunt,uncle and cousins and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! We went to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. One thing I really wanted to do but didn't get the chance to was thrift shopping. (Hey Macklemore, can we go thrift shopping?) I love to go thrift shopping, especially in places that I haven't been before, let alone a country I don't even live in! I'm always on the hunt for a nice, good quality polaroid camera, but I've yet to succeed.

    Here are some photos that I took during my trip:

    I also developed a new TV obsession; Gossip Girl. I won't go into too much detail, but it's amazing. Here more about it in my upcoming March favourites!

    Now, I have to go finish up some research things for my French project.. Au revoir!

    happy birthday chris martin!

    So for those of who didn't know, today is Chris Martin's (the lead singer of Coldplay) birthday! Which is exciting!

    I've always known of Coldplay, but in the last year or so, I've been loving them. The music that this band produces is just flawless.

    Just before this, I was watching "Coldplay Live 2003". AMAZING. Coldplay sounds so good live. And Chris Martin is so theatrical, and fun! I have to see them before I check out.

    Not too much to say, but thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Chris Martin for writing some of my favourite songs today.
