What not to wear

*Deep Breath*

Okay. I have but a milisecond of down time.

Right now I'm in my 4th period Study Hall. My last minute of regular...heart...beating-ness (Wow, I am soooo articulate!) before I'm thrown into the rest of the school day (Vocab quiz, Algebra 2 Test) and then catapulted into a frenzy of packing, dictaphone-buying, picking up and dropping off. I figured I'd spend the last twenty minutes of Study Hall trying to explain some of my outfits that I sort of picked out.

One of my outfits is this pink cashmere sweater thrown over a striped blouse with pink, brown, black, and grey in it. I'm wearing that with black dress pants and my beaten, suede, black Old Navy flats.

Another one is this brown, orange, and black striped half-shirt over top of a tan tank top, with brown gauchos. I don't know about shoes yet, probably the all-purpose and very comfortable black flip flops. (YAAAY OLD NAVY!!)

One that is sort of half-put together is these black and grey pinstriped dress pants, with either a black or a grey sweater--which I know exists in my sister's closet, but haven't located yet. And since wearing heels would kill me all weekend, I might just end up wearing my flats or my flops with that as well. Maybe as an accessory I'll add pearls or something.

I have a pair of pink and grey pinstriped dress pants from the Limited that I haven't paired up with anything yet. Still searching...

My mom happens to like this purple blouse thing...I have NO idea what I'd wear it with.

I sort of threw a small outfit together, and I still dunno if it looks right, but I picked out a beige t-shirt with onesie buttons (you know the kind, on baby clothes?) down the center and a pink and beige patterned skirt. It looks better than its half-assed explanation, but I don't know if I want to bring it yet.

And the dress--the thought of me wearing it actually makes me vomit a little in my mouth--that I'm going to have to wear for the Governor's ball is your classic black dress. I wouldn't say it's little--considering I'm far from--but it has a cute little rippling effect across the tummy--thank GOD!!--and is sort of pleated (sort of, I don't really know my fashion terminology) around the bottom. I figured that with some black heels and a long necklace will be just fine.

*Deep Breath*

Okay, I only have about 10 minutes left now--ahh, wait, the 8 minute bell just rang. So I'm going to wrap this up. Sorry if my explanations are a bit lack-luster--there's no way for me to load pictures here at school and even if I could, I don't think I'd have enough time at all. So hopefully I can gain some constructive criticism for my frenzied-last minute packing. (DAMNIT, I knew I should have gone SHOPPING or to my Aunt's house!!)

Okay, still breathing. Only 7 hours, 20 minutes until tonight, but officially 24 hours and 50 minute until I have to be on the doorstep of the hotel, all prettied and dressed up.

I'm. So. Freakin'. Nervous.

Wish me luck!

Kick some serious ass, and don't forget to take names

Holy shiza. I can't believe we did that. I won't keep you in suspense...but today...(Dramatic pause)...I quit fastpitch softball. I'll start at the beginning. Yesterday we had our first official slowpitch game (aka for my father's team). I went, because honestly--how can you not go to your own father's game? Not to mention, the fastpitch game was a make-up that we didn't know about until last week. So we--my older sister Devyn, a friend of mine named Ashley--went to our slowpitch game. After all, my dad needed us and we would've had to forfeit if we didn't have enough girls to play. So we sort of ditched the fastpitch game. But it was NBD, seriously. Ashley NEVER plays in a fastpitch game. She sits the bench EVERY game, yet shows up for every practice, all the time. So naturally she's going to go to the game where she gets a chance to play, and not to mention she's good at it. My sister, on the other hand, is a senior. She's paid her dues. S...

Just another Monday

I took some pictures today, figuring I knew that I wouldn't feel up to posting something gigantic. And I'm not. We had another softball game this afternoon, and even though I played for about...3½ minutes, I'm still wiped from having to spend the entire game on my feet (and add that up to my day and school, and it's cause for exhaustion). My 3½ minutes in the spotlight was when my coach decided that we were losing bad enough (We lost 17-10 or something like that) that it wouldn't do any harm to put the Junior Varsity Princess (aka moi, if you're that thick) into the game. The batter's box, to be precise. I guess I wasn't good enough to defend the field. :( Whatever. So, I must've been a lot more nervous than I thought I was, because everyone kept telling me to relax. I didn't feel nervous, but when I struck out (I went down swingin', ya bastards!) and returned to the dugout, I realized that my hands were shaking. Well, here are the pictures.....

Go on and lose it

"Everybody makes mistakes/Everybody has those days..." -Hannah Montana Yeah Miss Montana? Well, I doubt you've had the day I've had. Enter: Wake up at 6:00 in the morning on a Saturday. Get in the shower, dress, and eat breakfast. Wonder why I'm up so early? I have a Youth and Government shindig. I get ready to go, and then wake my dad up at 7:30 and tell him we should go soon. I have to be there by 9 am, and it's about a half-hour away. That translates to an hour or so with me driving (still on my permit, so Dad has to come) and the fact that we don't exactly know where the Anita Tuvin Schlecter building is. I drove fine on the way there, no one died. =) We get there, and we were kind of lost--but that wasn't that big of deal. We were still early and we found the place all right. I also found my friend from Y&G who had told me what was going on today. We stood outside the ATS building...and it was locked. There wasn't a soul in sight. Me: ...
