Raging Waters
Shirt/ Sun Thrift, Skirt/ Sun Thrift, Shoes/ Etsy
$up,
Yesterday I went to a water park with my brother and my two step siblings. I used to really love water parks, even though they are pretty gross and you are most likely swimming in a mixture of little kids pee and water with a lot of chlorine, but this time it wasn't really that much fun and I don't really know why. My brother and I went one two slides and then we went in the wave pool and the lazy river. The water was really really cold, so I think thats why we only did a few things. The ground was also insanely hot, I definitely burned the bottom of my feet. There were other slides that we wanted to go on, but I was more hesitant because I remember the slides that didn't have inter-tubes really hurt your back or your front. Ryan and I got a lot of junk food, so that was pretty cool. We got weird looks from everyone, and I think its because of my hair and Ryan's rose.. Also a lot of people were talking about us and I'm pretty sure that they knew we could hear them. People are so strange.
Isn't this skirt cool? I got it along with this top at my most recent trip to Sun Thrift. I think thats one of the things I am going to miss the most about California. These shoes I got a while back on Etsy. They are kind of snug so I don't really wear them that often(They are also really unique, so it can be difficult to match them with outfits.). I found it entirely fitting to wear them yesterday though, because of where we were.

New Hair
$up,
I wanted to post a new outfit after I got my hair done a couple of days ago, but there was no one around to take my picture (My mom or my brother usually takes my picture.). I need to get a tripod so I don't have to rely on anyone else... I dyed my hair is pastel purple! I washed it once already so it kind of turned pink, but hey, I love pink. I think thats what I love the most about dying my hair "crazy" colors, the way it fades. It always exciting to me.
My move date is rapidly approaching and my mind is racing with all the things I want to do and all the things that I need to do. I want to tell all my friends here that I am leaving really soon, so we should all hangout a little more. I had a kind of sad thought yesterday. My good friend came back from Greece (She was there for a month) for a couple days before going back up north to her college. We had been friends since freshmen year and she was probably my best and most consistent friend all through high school. I was hanging out with her, and I realized that this is truly the last summer that all my friends from high school will be back home like this... This summer a lot of my friends didn't come back, or they came back for a couple days. Its strange.. Next summer, I know I will not be back for long, maybe a week or so, and I know my friends that came back for like a week will not come back at all. The people that do come back won't have very much in common, because we have been living separate lives for 3 years already. I can already feel a gap and its only been 2 years. I think its an appropriate time for all of us to move on into our adult life, but there is kind of a sad feeling realising that one chapter of your life is ending. However with every end there is a new beginning and I cannot tell you how excited I am for that.
Music-Sublime- Bad fish. I think it's only appropriate to end this chapter with sublime. Any music by Sublime will forever remind me of high school. This song in particular has sentimental value to me.

I like to ride bicycles and men
$up,
So about a month ago I was approached by this really awesome company called Snupped. They work with artist to make these really cool Spacesuits for Laptops and Spacebooks for tablets. I think they also make some smaller bags that you can put anything in. They don't mass produce so if you order something from them it's likely that that will be the only one with that Spcaesuit/ Spacebook/ Bag in the whole world (I love when things are unique). When you look into purchasing one, it brings you to a page with a blank Spacesuit. First you pick what size you want it in (It depends on the size of your laptop.) and then they have a bunch of pre set art that you can choose from or you can upload your own image. I uploaded this wonderful computer graphic that I found on Tumblr. If you can't clearly see what it says, it says "I like to ride bicycles and men." For some reason, I just love that picture so much (It's my cover photo on facebook). After you customize what you want on the front and back of the spacesuit, then you can customize what you want the inside to look like. I went with black, to keep it simple. The last step is adding handles. I wanted handles because I thought it was more convenient. I cannot wait to show this puppy off! It took about 3 weeks to get the Spacesuit, but it was well worth the wait. I am obsessed with it, and I am soo happy that I got to customize it and make it my own.
You should check them out, This is their website, http://www.snupped.com/. Their spacesuits are very affordable for how much customizing you are doing and the quality of the product is top notch. While your on their site you should check out their collaborations with other artists (my favorite is Josiah, its so interesting).
Music-Shlohmo- Seriously live mix.

Who Do You Think You Are?
$up,
This look was kind of just thrown together. I am aware that none of it matches, but I actually really enjoyed that aspect of it. I wanted to wear this turtle neck that I had cut into a crop top, but I couldn't really find something to go with it. So I guess I just put on things that really didn't match. The pants are my favorite, they kind of fit me awkwardly because I am a little bit to tall for them, but I think that makes them even better. I like thrift clothes because not everything fits as it should, but I think some times it looks better that way. The see through top was my aunts in the 60s. She gave it to my mom, and then my mom gave it to me. I really love the way it looks, but every time I wear it, it makes me look like I am dressed up. I don't think this outfit would really be complete without this shirt though. The shoes I got in high school back when Jeffrey Campbell was big on the Floral Heels (These were my graduation present!). I don't really wear them that often, but I really do love them. They are a bit hard to walk it, but I think it's because the arch in my foot is a little bit higher than most.
I think I might be dying my hair a cool new color today.. It will be a surprise what color!
Music- Lately I have had some trouble thinking of songs to post. I want to post new music because I want this blog to be as current as possible, but as you can probably tell by my posts, I love old music. I think today I am going to post some Spice Girls. The Spice Girls have a soft spot in my heart. They were the first people I saw in concert when I was a young child. I love how they kind of are getting a second wave of popularity with the "hip" crowd. The Spice Girls- Who Do You Think You Are.
