Photo Diary + Diary: I thought today was Friday

I seriously thought today was Friday. Because we had no school on Tuesday, I am seriously messed up on my days and forgot we had school tomorrow.

Today was going to my lazy day because I didn't feel like doing anything, so I decided to try the sock bun that I failed so many times before because of the layers of my haircut. However, I finally got it to work! Was so so so so happpy :) I used an old sock I had (as you can see it has school buses on it). My layers did come out but I just used bobby pins and hairspray to keep it in place. Then, I decided to wear my new H&M oversize cardigan and BAM comfy cozy chic and I have gotten so many complements on my hair and plus it makes me look like I have a ton of hair :)

The local tv station came to our school to interview and showcase our school today and it was very cool being they told us this while we were having a college presentation for the college

Oh so much homework, this week or next few days! I at first had 3 test and a presentation on Monday which were Biology, Chemistry and 20th Century History and a Chinese presentation  My worst nightmare came true at first, Biology and Chemistry on the same day, and that would mean all our Biology would be due and it is a lot (an example of the specific notes we had to do above). Then today our teacher spoke these beautiful words, "Your ch 16.17.18 test is going to be moved to Wednesday." OMG joy!!!! Happiness !!! That means I can study for the dreaded Kinetics test in Chemistry. I dropped recently to SL Chemistry because I can't handle HL and I was afraid of failing the IB exam. 

I have a Statistics test tomorrow for SL Math, which I took a Statistics class in 10th grade as an AP class and now I'm cracking out the AP books and now not even the AP books, but the ACT books. Yes, if you look closely you can see that I have an ACT admissions ticket... I am taking the ACT yet again. Because I gotten a 29 on the ACT and after hearing all colleges talking about scholarships and honors college starts at a 30 so I need to get that 30 or higher. So this would be my...(embarrassment) 10th time taking it...yes I said 10th. I started taking it in 2009 so like 8th-9th graders. Yes, I was that young... what was my parents thinking.

Hamlet....tomorrow for English class we have the dreaded socratic circle. If you haven't participate in a socratic circle before it is basically a small group of people inside a circle discussing while everyone else sits outside and "listens". I say "listen" because truthfully no one listens. I don't like socratic circles because I hate being under pressure to talk... I get nervous and start blabbing. I especially hate dominators in the groups because then I don't have time to talk and get the A. So, I usually try to get group of people that don't talk, but tomorrow's group has a few dominator so we need to battle it out.

Well I was bored on Wednesday in English class and me and my friend B were talking about the Renaissance festival with my table mates and B brought up her favorite part... the pickle selling man because he sells the pickles funnyingly (not a real word). So I drew pickles in all my table mates Hamlet books on page 157. I got the girl pickle, B got the boy pickle, K got the french pickle (she's taking french, and her pickle is my favorite), D got the sleeping pickle (bc she always sleeps in class. B claims it looks like a puddle), S got a musical pickle (she is taking IB music), and other K got the shopping pickle (she is very upper class like and is very fashionable). So I am the odd chicken out again for our table for groups which I am happy because I don't want to duke it out with my friends.

So the parents are away for our school's Open House and while "studying" meaning attempted study or do anything which I didn't do anything due to the lack of concentration and my stomach growling "feed me", I made myself a toaster strudel. OMG they are heaven and I <3 the frosting to the nth degree. Eating breakfast as a midnight snack is always yummy. My sister nibbled on my strudel because she is trying to keep the weight down for Homecoming...stay strong baby sister. But we ended up....

Making a whole meal. At least it was healthy, it was avocados, scrambled egg whites, sliced Asian pears, and green tea.  I was in charge of eggs, which I messed the pan up because I added more egg whites than I did vegetable oil making the egg soak up all the oil and causing the pan to be stuck to the eggs. The oil is limiting reagent while the eggs were the excessive (chemistry is seriously starting to get to me).


Preview of tomorrow: Homecoming football game, college applications, ACT and driving (yeah buddy!)

Until next time.

Once a Week Musts

forevergina.blogspot.com

Here is a list of my one week musts(: Comment below what yours are!

1. During the week we are stressed, over worked, and need some alone time, and what better way to unwind at the end of the week then taking a bubble bath with some yummy bath bombs or bubbles. Bubble Bath are a good way to relax and also help your skin by soaking in bath salts that are known to help your skin. I love to take my bubble baths with some yummy candles lit, meditation musics from radio.com and a good book.

2.  Hair is something very important to me and tends to be dry at the ends from all the hair straightening or curling. So what better way to re store that moisture by treating your hair to a hair mask. It takes about 5 minutes to apply and about 15 minutes to set in a hair cap which you will be able to do other things while waiting, and this will give your hair the softness and glossiness for a long time.

3. Not only is it good to treat your hair to a mask, it's also good to treat your face as well. It also takes 5 minutes to apply, and you are still able to do your regular routines. Face masks really cleanse your skin deep cleaning it out of impurities, smoothing your skin, and diminish redness than the daily face cleansers. This too will last a long time and help your skin(:

4. I cannot stress how important it is to clean your brushes because brushes always come in contact with our face and is exposed to dust, bacteria, and who knows what else. By cleaning your brushes at least once a week, you will eliminate bacteria that could create problems for your skin. If you don't want to waste money on brush cleaning liquids, use olive oil!

5. Exfoliate everywhere is a must because not only do they help erode bumps and acnes, and help prevent them from re appearing. Also, doing this too often can actually harm your face, so twice a week is maximum(: If you are on vacation on the beach area, sand is also a good exfoliator.
