Junior Prom

May 8, 2015

I went into last nights prom with no expectations, no real plans in mind. I decided on Friday I'd go to prom with my friend, Emilia and asked my friend Hanna if I could borrow her prom dress rather than trying to find one last minute. Monday, I bought my ticketwhich was $25. School was actually canceled on Friday due to prom although I'm unsure if it's because they realized that since Middle College only consists of juniors and seniors and it was a junior-senior prom, that almost no one would show up or since there are only 4 teachers and 3 administrators to be chaperones they just needed the extra time to set everything up? Either way, I didn't complain. Around 4:30, I began getting ready. Starting with my makeup, I applied foundation, concealer, finishing powder, bronzer and blush. Next I filled in my eyebrows and put a cream primer on my lids, deciding to let that dry while I did my hair. The theme of the dance was "Great Gatsby", which honestly makes my skin crawl since the theme should technically be the 1920s rather than Great Gatsby which is a novel, implying all us girls should dress as Daisy while the men dress as Gatsby, but oh well. I used a curling wand to get plain curls and then pinned half my hair up to do a half-half up-do (ish). Once I finished my hair, I complete my eye makeup, going on a subtle smokey eye and applied very dark red/plum lipstick. By the time I was done, it was 5:30 so I went outside to take some pictures with my familiy before eating some pasta and going with my mom to pick up Emilia. We got to her house at around 6:30 and decided to take some more pictures out by a trail near her neighborhood, it was fun and we had a good amount of laughs out of it. We arrived at the dance around 7:30 and literally danced most of the night away, only really stopping twice; once because Emilia got a really bad toe cramp and then again during the raffel. WHICH BY THE WAY I WON A FREAKING NEW TABLET WHICH IS AWESOME AND GREAT AND I'M CURRENTLY BLOGGING FROM AS WE SPEAK (TYPE, I GUESS). So that was great. It was actually a wonderful, splendid time. Emilia was an amazing prom date (we are both strong, independent women that don't need no man lol) and it was nice to spend time with some of my other friends as well. We danced so much that I'm actually sore today haha. But it was definitely worth it, I can say that I had the night of my life last night. <3 

Doesn't she just look extactic?
We're adorable siblings... not really, but I can dream.
Love her.

Hamlet Accountable Talk

1.Did Hamlet really go crazy? How does this connect to his wavering between action and inaction? Why doesn’t Hamlet just kill Claudius? Is he just a man who needs assurance beyond a doubt of Claudius’ guilt? Is he unable to take action because the opportunity never presents itself? Is he simply a coward? What are Hamlet’s true motivations for even pursuing the murder of Claudius? Is it Fear? Revenge? Love? Loyalty/Obligation? I’m not entirely sure if Hamlet was necessarily crazy rather than experiencing a devastating tragedy at such a young age. His reaction to “play crazy” was that of a child’s; playing make-believe is very much a child’s way of dealing with such dramatic events. “To put an antic disposition on, That you, at such times seeing me, never shall, With arms encum’red thus, or this headshake, Or by pronouncing of some doubtful phrase” (lines 172-174) is how he tells Horatio and Marcellus his plan. In a very child-like game, he tells them he will play pretend and they mus...

Chapters 14-16 (Creature's POV) - Entry #4

After Frankenstein abandons the creature, other than our short encounter in the woods when Victor is returning from Geneva, we are not exposed to him again until Victor’s retreat to the mountains. In chapter eleven, the creature opens his tale saying he is not quite sure of the beginning of his being; his initial memories and sensations began with his retreat to the woods after Frankenstein’s apartment. Living off berries and nuts, the creature was confused but learning survival skills along the way, including how to set and maintain a fire. I found this lonely encounter may have been initially good for the creature because it allowed him to figure out his surroundings of this new life he was brought into; however, keeping in mind while he is the great, big creature, he is very much in the dark about life and society itself, and without Victor to help him, he was completely and utterly alone. Agreed - the reflection gives the reader time to know the character rather than meet who Vict...

Vegetarianism : A Lifestyle

Leo Tolstoy, Martina Navratilova, Plutarch, Steve Jobs, Mary Shelley, Sylvester Graham, Upton Sinclair, Thomas Edison, Natalie Portman, Benjamin Franklin, Prince, Rosa Parks, Paul McCartney, Mike Tyson, and Ellen DeGeneres. What are the correlation between these people when they range through different time periods and areas of fame, one may ask? The common factor among them all was vegetarianism. A vegetarian is a person who does not eat meat, and sometimes other animal products, especially for moral, religious, or health reasons. The term “vegetarian” in itself is a very broad one for a non-meat eater, in that there are no technical restrictions merely a focus on plant-based foods, which is why there are different types of vegetarians. First, there is the plain vegetarian whose diet consists of absolutely no meat. The strictest of them all, Vegan, can be defined as a diet or a lifestyle in that vegans don’t eat any animal products whatsoever including dairy and try to avoid animal ...
