This kid kicks A (:

Receptionn.

So, last night my family and I went to my mom's friend from high school's wedding reception. I thought it was going to be one of those things where my mom introduces me to these people and they're all like "Awww, you've grown up so much! Do you remember me?" and I really don't but I say yes anyways so it doesn't have to get awkward. But it turned out to be a lot of fun! My mom's friend Sophie brought her kids, Brock and Abby, and they rock (: They're like ten and eleven but they are the coolest kids I know. I think we're going on a vacation with them next year!! Scorrrreeeee!! (:

That's Abby :D-->

Alsooooo: does anyone else think that the movie Penelope kicks
some serious A??
I just watched it like an hour ago and I absolutely loved it<33

I Heart Katy Perry.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG BROTHER :D

My almost-always-annoying-but-I-still-love-him older brother is turning NINETEEN today!! And in like four weeks he's moving off to college two and a half hours away :( Sometimes he annoys me to the point of wishing he was gone already, but right now..I'm kinda sad...

Fashionnnn

Newest Obsessions!!!--> Sweaters && Jackets :D

They are the best layering tools in your wardrobe! You can wear a sweater over anything you want, and if it's the right color it will look good. They even look good with shorts, so you don't have to keep sweaters tucked away in the summer.

Same thing with jackets. Bomber jackets are my personal favorite. They look good layered over anything and are the best at completing your style. A black one looks especially cute over a flower print dress.(:

Busy Bodies.

Ugghhh...massive headache from life guarding all day and then going to plyometrics.

I.Just.Want.To.Sleep.

And unfortunately I'm going to be working a lot in the next couple of days because we are going to be going on a trip to my cousin's cabin!! Woot woot (: It'll be like four days or so of skiing, tubing, tanning, partying, and all of the above! And I'm hoping with all of my little heart that my bestest cousins in the whole world will come!!! Kenzie, Tali, Tianna, and Brenden-->you better get your butts up there :D But for now I just have to think about waking up at seven tomorrow to go to work from eight-two :( shoot me please.

Abuse?

So, after watching tonight's new episode of Degrassi: TBP, I've come to the conclusion that all men who beat their gf's and/or wives should be castrated (: Poor FiFi. Say bye-bye to your what-nots, Bobby.

I also came across this yummy picture of Declan in the http://www.teennick.com Degrassi character photo archives. (;

Plyometrics

Oh plyometrics, if you don't know what that is, it's pretty much working out with medicine balls, jump ropes, and kettle balls. Tyra (my best friend ) asked me to come to this because her mom was teaching/coaching it for her volleyball team. (btw: Tyra and I run cross country and don't play volleyball.) And it was rather difficult. Especially after having a broken fibula for the last two months. Anywho, it was hard and I sweated profusely, but there's something about working out that makes your day feel fulfilled. (: ..even if I do drink a bottle of slightly unhealthy Mt. Dew afterward. :/

On a brighter note, my cousins;
Ava (three) and Sophia(one and a half)
were here to see me, and Ava successfully
bit my cheek while trying to eat my face.
:D

Television Schedule ((:

Just got back from teaching swim lessons...I'm so sick of them, I've been doing them for like the past eight weeks. Anywho, getting ready to watch GLEE! My new favorite obsession, btw. We've been getting first season from Netflix. I've got a soft spot for the gay guy, he's def my fave. (: Then after that I'm going to watch last night's episode of Pretty Little Liars on http://www.abcfamily.com. There are so many shows I'm following, and I love them all. (:

Oh, Degrassi, Secret Life of the American Teenager, Glee, and Pretty Little Liars,
you are my life<333

Degrassi: TBP

Okay, no judging.. (and btw I'm feeling this purple). But I'm kinda, sorta obsessed with the show Degrassi, and the I missed the movie premier last night and just watched it tonight and was still totally amazed at the cuteness of Declan and Holly J. They have to be the cutest couple ever..and maybe I'm just a little biased because of Declan's ravishing good looks, but I still am totally team Dolly J (:

I also feel the need to talk about the horrible Spinner/Jane break up and Spinner/Emma marriage. From day one, I've hated Emma..I don't know if it's because of the acting job that Miriam McDonald does, or just Emma's character in general. I mean come on..she's had gonorrhea, bulimia, and pretty much all of the above. She just gets under my skin. And when Jane showed up to the wedding and saw how happy Spinner was, and she told him to go through with it because it made him happy..now that's true love people. Go Jane!

Okay one last thing, I promise: Anyone else
think that Fiona is gorgeous, and just
a little messed up in the brain?
Let me know what you think (:

July Twenty (:

Currently listening to: "Teddy Picker"-The Arctic Monkeys.
First post of my first blog..ever! Yes, yes I know you're all very excited. So, let's get the basics out of the way. I'm Alix, seventeen, just starting my senior year! (:
There are things you should know: I'm a straight A student, president of National Honor Society, and alternating between number one and number two in my class. I'm an over achiever and like to lead. I recently applied for that Teen Vogue fashion scholarship, and am absolutely confident in myself. I mean why shouldn't I be. Everyone should be confident in themselves right? So, this blog is going to be about random things that I'm either passionate about at the moment or just anything. Feel free to comment (:

BTW-That^^^^ was my mood board for my application (:
