Lessons Learned in Life

I am very excited to say that after barely eating and barely sleeping for exactly a week, my IB scores have returned and I have not only passed, but scored higher than what I expected. Unfortunately, I still have to wait for those darn AP scores to come in (I'm sad to say I don't think I did as well as I did on the IB exams).

I am also very excited because yesterday meant confirmation for my Jonas Brothers Burning Up Tour Concert tickets for this Saturday at the Verizon Amphitheater down in Orange County.


Although I wasn't originally planning on going, my friend convinced me and even though we got tickets late, I am happy to say that I can go and be a screaming fangirl in the audience. I can excitedly and openly admit that I am a big fan of Disney Channel and I have no problem in saying that I love singing to most songs that come on it (although I am not that big of a fan of Vanessa Hudgens). Anyways, the Jonas Brothers are of course, an exception: not only are they adorable (I love Joe, especially) but their clothes would make me want to become a teenage boy just to wear them.

After staying up until twelve working on my very first assignment for my editor on my internship, she has emailed me back saying that it was terrific. What I love about my internship is that it allows me to do one thing that I absolutely love doing: writing. Editors offer me the chance to write articles that have the potential to be published, and hearing from someone with so much experience saying that my article was fantastic gives me the biggest joy in the world. After reading the email, I am excited to say that I will now go out, buy a cupcake, and celebrate by myself.

Are you a big fan of nail polish? A couple months ago I bought one of the advertised "Nic Sticks" made by OPI. I have not tried using it until about a couple of weeks ago. Although the color I bought didn't really suit me, I absolutely adore how simple and easy to use it is. I recently went out again and bought this color- it's called Ink a Dink a Pink and it's from Nicole by OPI and I absolutely adore it. The bright pink is perfect for my pale skin tone; I can say that I think I have found my perfect toe nail "color."

I've noticed (and so has Style.com) that little frills and such around the neck are becoming a growing trend. Perhaps it is to stop the vampires from biting us? There does after all seem to be another growing trend in the literature world for a vampire series known as Twilight.


My diet has (so far) been working. Unfortunately, there are still those little guilty pleasures in the world such as cupcakes and yogurt and ice cream. What are your (edible) guilty pleasures?
