Christmas Day!

8:24 PM 10 Comments A+ a-

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope all of you had a fabulous day and got what you wanted! Thank you so much to everyone who has came along for my crazy blogmas posts. It has been rough at times, but I found so much happiness in blogging because I literally have no life and nobody to be social with, so I come here! I'm going to continue blogging until the end of this month because why not? Again, no one is going to text me to hang out or anything. I also have to figure out something in my blog's html because there is a bug somewhere, gah.

UPDATE 12/26/15
I am not blogging every day to the end of the month, but expect a haul very soon!!

The Day Before Christmas

Well actually it's almost one hour until Christmas. QUICK I need to write this. This is the second to last blog post of blogmas! I might miss blogging every day because I get to talk to so many people everyday and it's like people actually like my blog?

Someone Motivate Me

Hi again, on another day at 11:11pm. I wish I could blog earlier. Like literally, I have nothing I need to do for the next two weeks. BUT I WILL FINISH BLOGMAS WHETHER IT KILLS ME OR NOT! Like It's just 6 days of blogging. And then I'll take a well deserved break from my blog. Because will have supplied you with 2 years and 3 months of blogging, if I was going off my schedule of barely blogging once a month.

The Day Before...

10:34 PM 0 Comments A+ a-


Hi friends. I’m taking my finals tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow. I only have two tests. One of which is okay to some extent. I know pretty much 95% of the information. So that’s good. My second final won’t be too bad I don’t think. I just need to get an 80 to have an A in that class. I’ve been living on rogerhub.com lately. Just final calculations and stuff like that. If you’re going to take any finals, I wish you the best of luck, but I still need some of that luck too, so don’t take it too far away. Kidding. More interesting blog posts coming after finals end, which is Friday. So my regular long ones will come back that day. For now, I need to go to sleep. A nice healthy sleep.

My Recent Discovery

10:57 PM 4 Comments A+ a-

Remember how I said I didn't have many ideas for blog posts? Did I say that? I think I did. Anyways, my brain finally remembered that I found a website of blog post ideas that I copied and pasted into a document. I've just realized this and now I can have jam packed blog posts of information and sweet stuff (I think). But tomorrow I will be posting a Whats on my IPhone. So stay tuned for that because I get to show you all the apps I use and more. But this is just a quick post telling all of you what's going on.

Hi everyone! Thank you so much to everyone who has been reading my posts and commenting this blogmas. I love all of you sososo much. Today will just be a chatty post. I'm going to talk about whatever is going on. This is probably going to go up around 11pm Central Time maybe??? So wherever you are in the world right now, if you're sleeping continue sleeping. But if you want to have some conversations and want to chat with me and feel cozy by the fire with hot chocolate (not literally) we can! Maybe we can get to know each other more! I might create a "Get to know me" tag for all bloggers to participate in! That might be really fun!

Thanksgiving Break Vacation Photos

9:26 PM 8 Comments A+ a-

Day 2 of Blogmas! I'm still going with this! That's kind of surprising. Well I mentioned in my last post that I would do a blog post on my thanksgiving break vacation. I had so much fun! I went To Taiwan for the week and got to see many things. This is the first time I have gone in a couple years so it was extremely exciting for me. Just so you know as well, my blog is once again under reconstruction so please ignore the weird things that are happening around here. They will be fixed in no time. Enjoy!










Will I Blogmas??

4:45 PM 2 Comments A+ a-

Hi everyone! It's finally December! IT'S DECEMBER 1ST!! That means 11 days and counting until finals start for me, 14 days and counting until winter break and 24 days and counting until Christmas!! Who's excited? Anyways, since I was thinking how I haven't blogged in nearly a month, I might do blogmas? Which means I will blog everyday until the day of Christmas. This might be extremely hard because I have other things to do everyday, like homework obviously, but I'll try anyways. Just like back when I used to blog almost everyday, or 3 times a week.

Quick post before the night ends!! I'm trying to get 1 post per month here and it's October 31st 11:11pm. I wish I could write blog posts more often. Okay anyways, here's just an update on life and stuff like that.

Where Are You Now

Wait. Annie is back on her blog??? That's right. How long has it been? I lost count to be honest. I hope many of you loyal readers have not lost hope. Or stopped looking at my blog. Because new and fresh content is coming your way. Whenever I feel like talking about it. Also, who remembers the times when I would post almost everyday? That changed to Sundays, which I never follow. And now it is, post whenever you feel like it! Today I will just be updating on how life is and stuff like that. Long post today do you ask? Absolutely. You deserve it. 

Q&A August 2015

1:33 PM 6 Comments A+ a-

Since school is almost here, (August 19). Why not do a Q&A? Even though those two have absolutely nothing in common. I did a Q&A awhile back, and I thought it was really fun to answer questions and see questions being asked. So, if you have anything to ask me, comment below and I will definitely answer it. Any question you have for me. I will also link you to the previous Q&A so you can see how that one went!

This Week at Summer Camp

10:30 AM 0 Comments A+ a-

Though I went to camp, I was able to still make a post for this week because of my new schedule! I had lots of fun at the summer camp and also did a bunch of doodling as well. So I will show you what I made this week. This isn't an art camp by the way. It's a math and science camp. 

Makeup or No Makeup

10:55 PM 6 Comments A+ a-

I'm sure many of you have seen pictures of YouTube beauty gurus have makeup on half of their face. This message sends to all the people in the world that makeup does not have to be used for you to be beautiful. Many ladies/men wear makeup because they feel confident in it. It makes themselves feel more confident when they wear it. But, there are some people who never wear makeup, and are just as confident. It doesn't matter who wears what and what products are used, as long as you feel beautiful deep down. That is the most important thing. Sure, what others think may slightly alter your feeling towards yourself, because t in the end, it's all you. I personally never wear makeup most times. I will occasionally wear some blush on my cheeks but that is it. The only time I felt like I needed to wear a lot of makeup to my standards, was at the eighth grade formal. That day, with my makeup on and dressed in heels and a pretty dress (look at my profile pic in the sidebar) I felt beautiful and confident. 

But honestly, just do what you want. If people are going to judge, then let them. Just know that you are unique in your own way and that everyone in the world is beautiful, like you and me. 

I hope everyone had a fantastic Fourth of July yesterday if you live in America and if you don't, I hope you had a good day yesterday!

Summertime Sadness

10:49 AM 5 Comments A+ a-

As you may or may not know, I put up a contest a week ago. That did not run too successfully. My overall appeal to the general audience has not been too great either. This has left me to ponder, is it because it's summer?

Summer Vacation Packing Chat

9:29 AM 1 Comments A+ a-

Are you going somewhere this summer? Because I already have and there are more trips to come in these upcoming months. But this weekend, I'm going to a summer music camp, different than the one in this blog post. But anyway, we all know the dreadful (or exciting) thing we have to do before we go and have fun: pack your suitcase. I don't know about you, but I usually bring a big suitcase and a bag and a backpack if I'm going on very long trips, which isn't quite often. This summer camp is a week long, so that means packing for a week long of outfits, snacks, and other neccesities to last me the week. You would think that that would mean just randomly throwing in random clothes right?

The Short Hair Trend of 2015

6:00 AM 0 Comments A+ a-

Whether you see it in the magazines, or maybe it is just flooding the heads on your magazines, short hair is coming for you. I have recently seen many of my favorite celebrities chopping off their locks and as well as my peers. This makes me want to think, "Should I do it too?" But I have been trying to grow my hair out, since long hair was so popular last year. 
But when I think about it, if short hair is the trend now, then next year it would be medium length hair right? Once everyone's hair grows out. It would be medium length. Then that would go on a trend. After a year of medium length, then it would go to long hair again... Right? It does make some sort of logical sense.

Did You Miss Me?

6:17 PM 7 Comments A+ a-

I am back everyone!! This week has been pretty hectic. With graduating, finals, and the end of the year trip for our school, I barely had time to find a time to sit down and write. Like literally right in front of me is the book I need to read over the summer and turn in next year for a grade. *Sigh*

The New System- Bullet Journal

6:35 PM 0 Comments A+ a-

I came across this system of getting your stuff in check while roaming around on the internet. I stumbled onto this Tumblr page called: Pens&Machine. I kept on scrolling and scrolling through all these posts that had all these AMAZING notes taken from lectures. Some of the things I saw were goals, actual goals for school. Then I HAD to make an account to follow this whole community of people who basically do the same thing. They are called Studyblr. I was honestly obsessed. Then I came across planneraddicts. A whole new world omigosh. The planners they have there are absolutely stunning. Again, actual goals.

This trip was sososo fun. There was lots of bonding and lots of catching up. I usually don't have cell phone on me, but my mom gave me hers for the trip. I did A LOT of texting to people I don't normally text on a monthly/yearly basis. 

More than 1000 page views! WOWZERS! I also found out more people know about this blog than I thought during this trip, thanks Google+

I Almost Got Kidnapped as a Kid

7:42 PM 1 Comments A+ a-

Before I launch into my story, I would like to say I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. Blogging is so fun in a way that probably only people who blog understand. I have so much fun blogging I want to quit school and do this for the rest of my life. I also like looking at how many people view my blog everyday, because then it makes me feel like I have this undetected potential, if that makes any sense. I also have Feedjit on my blog for a reason, so I can see where people are viewing m blog from. Like New York and California?? So cool. I also want to blog everyday, because I can talk and then people read. To the story... I've told this story to some people, because I thought it was important. But here is the long version of it...

10 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Me

6:56 PM 1 Comments A+ a-

I like doing these facts with pictures. They're really fun. This week, we have 10 THINGS YOU PROBABLY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT ME! Let's do thisss.

1. I currently don't have an Instagram


Long story. But there are actually positive things about this. After a few weeks of not having it, I realized one thing. Everyone basically uses their Instagram to self promote themselves. You are probably guilty of taking a picture of your food and then realizing that a little piece of something is not in the right place, so you readjust and retake. That is absolutely crazy. Who read adjusts their food? The negative is that I feel really out of the loop of everything. But that's okay. I also can't Instagram stalk people now. 

Adventures in Downtown w/ Sweet Delicacies

6:45 PM 1 Comments A+ a-

Hi,

Recently over the weekend, I went on an excursion at downtown Naperville. And for the first time, I saw the Apple Watch! It is not too bad actually. The screen is normal size, but to read texts and emails, it is pretty small. I would actually get one, if I had a phone, which I sadly STILL don't.
