Hello everyone,
I wanted to apologize for my depressed post from before, my birthday turned out to be pretty great actually. A lot of people wished me happy birthday on facebook and in real life. I got some great gifts and celebrated my day pretty well.
Now I'm pretty excited to share with you the news of a new project I'm working on with two of my friends. It's a blog called http://twogeeksandanotaku.blogspot.com/ and the three of us will be posting stuff on a weekly basis. Everything from reviews, opinions, discussions, and experiences is what you'll find. Right now we're in our beginning stages and only one post has been made but it will be growing.
*shameless promotion done*
Tomorrow I get to go to a girl guiding awards ceremony because last year I received the Canada Cord. Which is an award you can get in pathfinders by completing various requirements and challenges. So I'm pretty excited about that.
School is going well, especially on my birthday. So I'll write to you later!

My Birthday
Hello all,
Yes it's that time of year again, my birthday. It's tomorrow (the 21st) for your records. I don't really know how to feel about it because it seems so unimportant to me. I've been lying that I'm 15 since the summer and now I will be. It's not like it makes a difference anyways, I have the maturity level of someone more than two years older than me anyways.
Some people know it's my birthday, mostly my friends and some people who have been in my class for years. If someone wishes me happy birthday who isn't in those categories I assume they got the reminder on Facebook. Therefore it is invalid.
Sorry if I seem so negative right now, I can't really pen the reason why I'm feeling this way. I just need to let things out I guess. But tomorrow I get a bunch of people saying Happy Birthday! And actually acknowledging me for once.
Anyways I'd like to say hello to the people who have been reading me! And thanks to I Love Reading And Writing for linking them to me!
:)

Picture Day
Well it seems that the annual school picture day is upon us again, or at least at my high school. By the time you read this and I finish writing it'll be the end of the day for me and it'll all be over for another year. To help you out I have some tips! Some are borrowed, some are mine, all useful!
When putting an outfit together for picture day you have to keep the weather in mind. For instance I had planned on wearing a dress for my picture but since I walk and the weather was cold so I had to swap to a shirt and tie (with added Gryffindor pin). Don't be too strenuous when walking to school, get a ride if possible because you may sweat on your way to school and you don't want embarrassing sweat stains in your picture to be remembered forever. Also keep the background of the picture in mind, you don't want your head to be floating. Dress nicely but don't wear a costume, be yourself!
When packing your bag pack a hairbrush, a small mirror, some touch up makeup, and a lunch that is easy to eat and won't stain if your picture will be in the afternoon.
At my high school they call down by last name in alphabetical order, keep that in mind during the day. If you're in an earlier letter (example I would be C) you are lucky. If you aren't stop by the bathroom on your way to the photo area to touch up with a hairbrush and makeup or whatever else you would need.
Don't be afraid to practice your smile while in the washroom, and remember to smile with your eyes so it's genuine. Once you get to the photo area give the photographer your order sheet and follow their instructions. They are instructing you for a reason. Be confident, sit up straight and don't forget to smile!

Ps. I seem to have Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide on the brain lately, it's a good show with good tips that I actually use and borrow for here time to time so I recommend watching it even if it's for middle school children. The jokes aren't just aimed for kids anyway so even an adult will enjoy it (my mother is proof). Go find it on the net somewhere because Nickelodeon decided to stop airing it, or look to family during the weekly afternoons before school ends. It's fun to watch when you're home sick!
Thanks!
