Organization, Shopping Lists, and Daniel Radcliffe.

Okay so, I just got done cleaning out my closet.  It's a walk-in closet and it was absolutely full of junk.  I threw like two trash bags full of stuff away (it was mostly little kid stuff that I've never gotten rid of).  I'm so excited that it is clean(er) now!! But there are still more things I need to get to make me have more storage space and to be more organized. Well here, why don't I just put my "shopping list" on here for you to read. (:

-iPod Cover
-Little Plastic Drawers for Make-up
-Big Drawers for Closet
-Under Bed Sto-away Thing
-Drawer for Jewelry
-Clothes Hangers
-Coat Rack

Seem like a lot of stuff? Yea I know..and I'll have to pay for it all.  That's why I'm always babysitting and life guarding and teaching swim lessons.  It's all for the green baby.

Ohhhhhhh!!! and guess what I just got in the mail that I'm really excited about!!! An autographed picture of Daniel Radcliffe.  Yea I know this may seem weird or juvenile but I love him..and Harry Potter..I'm a nerd, get over it. (: But yes, it is my third picture from him..or at least his assistants, and I'm just a tad bit excited.

SIDE NOTE-When I scanned the picture it only scanned the picture part. In reality there's a thick, white border around that picture and that's where he signed it. So don't think I'm lying!!!

Weight Problems?

92% of teen girls would like to change something about the way they look, with body weight ranking the highest.

75% of teenage girls felt 'depressed, guilty and shameful' after spending just three minutes leafing through a fashion magazine.

While only 19% of teenage girls are "overweight," 67% think they "need to lose weight"

90% of eating disorders are found in girls

74% of girls say they are under pressure to please everyone

3 out of 4 girls say they feel pressure to be "super girls"

74% say they often feel stressed

So tell me, with these stats why do we feel this way? And trust me, I'm as guilty as everyone. I call myself fat on a daily basis..but why? Why do we feel this way about ourselves? Why do we call ourselves fat and ugly, even if we aren't? And it's really only in girls. I don't think I've ever heard of a boy not eating because he thinks he's fat, or puking himself every time he thinks he eats too much. So what is it with girls that makes them criticize themselves so much. Is it the images on TV and in magazines? Is it that we think that everyone else is criticizing us so we criticize ourselves? And I've noticed with myself that a lot of the time I call myself fat or ugly just so someone can contradict me, just so someone will tell me "no, you're not, you're perfect and beautiful just the way you are." But not everyone has someone to tell them that, so they just go on with low self-esteem. Let's try something, let's try to love ourselves for who we are and what we look like, no matter what anyone else says. (:

-->The stats above are from this website.

Annie, Shanae, && Cassadee

So, I was looking up a video on youtube and underneath the video there was a link to Hey Monday's "I Don't Wanna Dance" video. So, I clicked on it because I like Hey Monday but I've never seen their videos or like what they look like, and as I was watching I notice that the lead singer, Cassadee Pope, looks like Annie Clark (Fiona from Degrassi) and Shanae Grimes (Darcy from Degrassi, and Annie from 90210) put together. She looks a little more like Annie Clark, but you can kinda tell where I got the Shanae Grimes part from. I'll put pictures down below, Cassadee in the middle, Annie on the left, and Shanae on the right. Tell me if you see the resemblance to and that I'm not seeing things xD

Vlogs, Blogs, and Blood.

I just gave blood like..twenty minutes ago? and I'm feeling pretty dizzy :S but also very good for helping out in that way (: It makes me feel good to do things like that. Also the nurses were very nice and got me a Mt. Dew when I almost fainted and had to lay down. So, thank you nurses! On another note, I've been reading Elle and Blair Fowler's blogs and watching their vlogs and realized that I really want to be like them. I mean to be famous just from one of these things? Amazing. But to be famous you have to be rich, and well..I'm not. I'm far from it. I buy all my makeup and clothes and everything else that I don't absolutely need. That's where life guarding comes in, which I had to do today...and babysitting, which surprisingly is more fun than life guarding, but you don't get as good of a tan ;D So, right now I'm going to go lie down because I'm starting to see spots again, so bye!

Cabinnnn.

Ahh, I've been gone at my cousin's cabin since Wednesday, and there was no cable and very, very limited internet. :/ buttttttt I survived! It was so much fun, my Aunt Darci, Uncle Eric and their two daughters, Ava (three) and Sophia (one and a half) came up too. We tubed a lot, and water skied. But the last night we went out on the boat, my dad was skiing and when he fell he tore his hamstring! It was awful, he couldn't walk the rest of the night. But he's fine now, just really sore (: haha. But I must bid you all farewell and head off to lovely plyometrics. :D
