"Who I'm Fascinated By"
Day 25. I’m not really sure who to put. People in general are pretty fascinating.

"Favorite Movie"
Day 24. I really like the movie Chicago. It’s based on the Broadway musical, and it’s about the main character Roxie Harte, who aspires to be a showgirl like her idol Velma Kelley. They both end up in jail together for murdering men, Roxie her boyfriend (on the side of her marriage), and Velma her husband (and sister). They both have the same lawyer, Billy Flinn, who has “never lost a case”. They...

Half-moon manicure
My mom got me a bunch of those little fine-detail-brush nail polishes so I decided to give myself a half-moon manicure. It looks so cool:

Black Swan
I saw Black Swan yesterday night. My conclusion: Well done and emotionally disturbing.
Basically, the main character loses her mind and starts imagining things that aren’t real. It gets really intense and very very creepy. She imagines that people are after her, such as Lily (her understudy) and her mother. Some of the scenes are very disturbing indeed - she inflicts self harm many times...

"How I've Changed"
Day 22. I think I’ve become more assertive and confident, and less afraid to stand out. Plus I’ve gotten pretty good at sewing.

"Education"
Day 20. Education, to me, is a competitive game. You do the best you can in high school to get into a good college, and you do well in college to get a job. Without college you cannot get a particularly high paying job, and without a high paying job you won’t have enough money to cover living expenses, which are very high, particularly in the Northeast. So, while I think the whole game is silly,...

"Parents"
Day 19. I do not agree with a lot of the things my parents do/think (particularly my father) but I try not to disrespect them. That’s not cool. For the most part they respect me and when they don’t, I don’t think it’s usually intentional. Obviously they’re not perfect, probably far from it but agreeing with them and respecting them are two different things. Unfortunately since they are technically...

I painted my toenails teal with some of the nail polish my mom bought me for Christmas :-) You may not know this but…I am OBSESSED with painting my nails. During the winter it’s usually just my fingernails (summer is when I bother with my toes), but occasionally I’ll paint my toes a fun color!

"Beliefs"
Day 18. My beliefs? Beliefs about what? I believe that you should always have fun, love life, and love each other. I believe that you should be intellectual, and have deep discussions, but not get angry with people who disagree. I believe you should treat everyone kindly and not dislike people due to first impressions. I believe that you should not judge people without knowing them and be tolerant...

"My year"
Day 17. Hmm…I had a pretty good year I guess. This summer was the best part because I was doing fun stuff pretty much every day. I went to the beach (a real one on the coast, mind you) almost once a week and gas prices were low, and I just did a lot of hanging out with friends, swimming, and chilling.

A peek at the purple dress.
So, I saw a cute purple round-necked dress in the window of a department store in NYC (I think it was Saks but I can’t remember) and it was so cute. I was like, “That’s my New Year’s Eve dress!” It’s almost done and it’s got some cute details. Here are some preview pictures:

"Mainstream Music"
Day 16. I tend to be a bit of a snot about music, often to the point of repudiating mainstream music. Though I will admit to bouncing to a Katy Perry or Ke$ha song while driving. I don’t know. I think that mainstream music has its place (i.e. screaming the words with your friends in the car, playing at a school dance, or saved to the IPods of Hollister girls). But I prefer to have to actively...

Christmas Decorating
So we finally put up the tree. We always put it up on my birthday (Dec. 23). I took some pictures of it and other Christmas decorations I put up for your viewing pleasure.
I got this cute little snowman that plugs into my computer and glows. Clever idea.
Some boxes of antique Christmas ornaments.
Garland on the banister.
Me decorating our tree. (Not done yet though, I have yet to...

"Memory"
Day 14. My earliest memory is of my parents putting me in the hatch of their kayak to take a picture of me. They thought it was cute. I’d always assumed I was at least 2 or so, but it turns out I was barely even a year old, so how I remember is a mystery. My mom claims it’s because of the photo, but I don’t remember seeing the photo until I was much older. Weird, huh?

"Moving"
Day 13. I’d love to move to Utah. Specifically Moab, Utah. It’s right between Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park which are, in my opinion, two of the most beautiful national parks in the US. Also, the climate is better suited to me because it’s warmer almost all year and it’s dry so you don’t sweat all over the place. Just watch out for scorpions.
