A taste of the good life

What? I graduated?

2009-06-08T20:52:00.005-06:00

Get used to this epic lack of blogging, i don't feel like i'll be getting better anytime soon but hey at least i'm trying, right? That matters? So graduation and pinning and everything else that came along with the ever-anticipated leave from Catholic school was very very.....nice? I can't really tell you how i feel about it, i just know that i cried more then i ever thought i would. I miss some of the people already because i'm well aware of the fact that we're going to drift, but then again i'm alright with it. It was a melancholy experince to say the very least. And now....drum roll please.....PICTURES!!! (black dress and t-shirt and b-bal shorts=pinning and the after picning other dress and fancy hair=graduation) I so wish i had better pictures of graduation because my dress....oh my goodness i'm so in love with it hahaha all the full lengths are on my mom's and vicki has some, i'll have to steal and update you guys later...

I'm sad about jon and kate plus 8, and yes that's random but i really am. Jon and Kate plus hate man...:(

We Laughed Until We Cried

2009-05-16T16:20:00.004-06:00

The final dance at my school was this past Friday, an although i had told myself time and time again that i wouldn't cry, i bawled like a baby by the end of the night. Nine years of my life are coming to an end, and i never thought I'd say this, but I'm going to miss each and every person I've gone to school with for the past nine years. I don't know if any of them read this anymore, but i do know that i want them all to know that I love them.

Graduation is next week...definitely going to be a tear filled night also.

i hope everyone is doing well :)

xxoo,

A blog...? What's that?!?!?!

2009-04-28T18:28:00.004-06:00

Oh i am quite the failure when it comes to the blogging world! I remember the days when i used to have to resist the urge to post about seven times a day...

Maybe those days will soon return, summer is in fact quickly approaching. Eighth grade graduation, homework, and friends have basically taken over my entire life and i apologize profusely for not posting when i said that i would.

The play went extremely well, i didn't forget a single line! It was absolutely fantastic and I'm very very proud of the fact that i didn't screw up in front of everyone!!!!

Spring break was pretty awesome too! I got to have a dance party with my friend Hannah, and that's always great. It was actually just us screaming and running around my house, but hey that's even better!!!

My birthday was last weekend and i got some amazing clothes, forever21 is officially my favorite store in the entire world!!! (the pictures are from the very day of my birthday, when melissa and i went over to cole's to party it up)

I haven't been on in forever yet i don't really have to much to say, but i will say this:

I, Raigan, here by solemnly sware to dedicate myself to this blog and my awesome readers even more!!!

xxoo,

raigan

Intermission...

2009-03-10T15:07:00.003-06:00

I'm working on a post, i really really am. And it's a really good one too, a really good smartly worded one! Oh yes, it's a rant! YAY!!!!

But as for now you'll have to enjoy this picture, because I'm also working on.......

*drum roll*

a new layout!!!!

Not to mention play line memorization! I don't know if i mentioned it, but I got a pretty big part in the eighth grade play at school. Yup, Broadway here i come!!!

xxoo,

raigan

oh wow...

2009-03-05T16:10:00.004-07:00

According to the weather man, today was just "splendid"! I would have to agree with him! It's 75 degrees outside, and it's spring-y and it just makes me joyful! I can't wait for spring, even though i still love winter. But hey, it's Missouri, you can easily get winter weather in summer also!

Wasn't that just a great way to waste time before i say that i suck for not posting in ohhhh i don't know, a month?! I don't even know what's going on, I just haven't had anything to say at all. And plus I've been busy with just life in general.

pretty lame that I'm just now posting about the Valentine's day dance. It was...OK? I mean it was the whole catholic school dance, "leave room for Jesus" kind of thing, rather lame. Not that i promote practically having sex on the dance floor, but still.

My new obsessions:

-The Real Housewives of New York City

-Technicolor eyes by Backseat Goodbye

-Drawing purple dinosaurs with neon orange and yellow polka dots

-Hair bows

-My hair being shorter

I might dye my hair back to being blonder this weekend. I also really need to get my bangs cut, they're like ridiculously split ended and when i DID get my haircut the chick that did it was being all shoty and didn't even trim my bangs! GRRRR!!!

The Real Housewives of New York City is quite possibly the best reality show to ever be broad casted. Those ladies are insane!!! I'm pretty sure that my favorite person on that show is little five year old Francois!!! (just google him)

Oh I've also decided that one of my biggest goals in life it so have someone write a song about me, and for that song to become very famous. This has been a goal of mine for a while, but now it's a MAIN goal!

I had to draw a dino for science today, it kind of looked like the loch nest monster!!!!

I'm starting to feel more like blogging, which is a plus because i love everyone that reads my blog!!! Yes, so leave me some love :)

xxoo,

raigan

Frustration...

2009-01-23T17:53:00.002-07:00

Happy inauguration week! I'm very proud of our country and our president, Barack Obama I support you!!!

Alright so next week is catholic schools week, its this big week where basically my school does nothing except have lots of junk food and party because we're a catholic school, and the eighth grade always plays a volleyball game against the teachers. It's basically an excuse to dress like a crazy person and to have extreme bragging rights over the teachers....that is if we win.

I'm not an athlete, at all. The extent of my athletic career was one year on the basketball team and less then a year in dance classes when i was maybe 5....

PE today: HELL! We're practicing for the volleyball game and all that joyful stuff...well ok I'm sorry I'm not going to lunge TOWARDS a ball that is coming TOWARDS my face, sorry folks. Apparently i should sit out of the game.....haha no thanks.

Theres a boy in my grade who seems to think that sports are the only important thing in life, and he almost made me cry today. Yup.

Oh he also happens to be the one who told me on inauguration day that Obama spent 17 years in Indonesia smoking weed, then went on to argue with our language arts teacher that it was a fact.

Do you understand how that could be aggravating beyond belief?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!

I've known him since i was 4, he was my soccer buddy and we used to be really close.....now a days I don't feel like i even know him anymore. It's a bit tragic.

"I'll keep my guns. I'll keep my freedom. I'll keep my money. You can keep the change" Oh boy do i love store billboards!!!!! HAHA sucka toooooo bad we already have a president and you can't change it!

I'm mature, I know....

xxoo,
raigan

Yah look so fine and i really wanna make you mine...

2009-01-18T19:21:00.003-07:00

Three things I love in life....

Crayon boxy boxity box box...

2009-01-16T19:07:00.003-07:00

We made this crayon box thingy in computer class, which didnt go so well for me...i'm not all that great at meausrements. And the above is what i titled mine, it's covered in peace signs and random "CRAYONS!!!!!" placed everywhere. Yes....that is what i have to tell you about my week.
Pointless drama seems to be someones favorite past time lately...
I hate people who have lives that aren't anything to complain about, yet they spend their lives dwelling on the minimal issues they deal with. Yeah, we all do it, but not all of us do it every second of every day.
We're doing this eighth grade play called Don't Say Macbeth and I might get the lead role.....and if i do it would fer sure complete my life.
Gosh i feel so friggin boring....
It snowed here today!!!!
And i'm kind of geting excited about summer clothes which is odd because i'm IN LOVE with winter....hmmm conflicting emotions!
BRACES OFF IN SIX MONTHS OR LESSSSSS!!!!!! I've had my braces for almost three years, my orthodontist knows me better then a lot of people i go to school with. Yeah...pathetic.
Kate Nash-Foundations, basically my new favorite song!
Everyone go listen to NeverShoutNever! because a) christofer is adorable b) amazing vocals c) they're from joplin and thats in my state!!!!!!
Alloy is basically the best thing that has ever happened to me.....

i want that dress....i would wear it every single day

hmmmm well as fun as this post is, i'm gonna give up on it

xxoo,

raigan

golly gee mister...

2009-01-11T19:15:00.004-07:00

Wow...Haven't done this in quite some time....

Christmas was amazing, and Santa was very very good to me!!!! I got a Louis vuitton bag (yes, a real one) a juicy jacket a new camera a bunch of clothes and the gift that keeps on giving, money!

I would elaborate but this week has been pretty rough on me emotionally...

Aside from the drama that typically is a constant in my life, i lost a loved one who definitely should not of been lost. My step mom was roughly five months pregnant and gave still birth to Finnigan Justin at 1:25 AM on January 10...

It's been really hard for me, i don't really know how to cope with the way i feel right now because honestly I'm not to sure how i feel. Disappointed, heartbroken, confused........it's a long list but I'm trying to get through it....

I'll be headed to Kansas city for his funeral on Tuesday....

hope you all are doing well

i apologize for not commenting anyone back i just don't feel like it

xxoo,

Raigan

2008-11-21T20:45:00.009-07:00

Winter is here my friends, and I don't see any signs of it leaving....so what's a girl to do but buy hello kitty earmuffs?!

Christmas is a month away, which seems so unreal! I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Me, Victoria, and my mom and step dad and brother went and got pictures with Santa Claus!!!! I'm very excited for Christmas, like so excited that i want to put up my Christmas tree NOW!!!!!I've been thinking about it....and i really really want to do a blogger Christmas present exchange! I know it might be creepy to like give out your address and stuff....but you should get a PO box! haha i realize that this probably won't happen.....but i waaaant it to :)

Yesterday i went to my friend Hannah's swim meet, and let me tell yah folks it was great fun! First off, Hannah is amazing. She's the one that keeps me awake through my first four periods of school, and the girl has the ability to make me laugh un-controlably, which is something i admire in a person! The meet was great and her swim team friends are awesome, they were very very excepting of my friend Cole and I. I've noticed that most kids are the hi and bye type. Who will say hi when they meet you then just not acknowledge your existence, but oh man swim team kids are so totally not that way. Not to mention that swim boys are sexy....dead sexy actually!

Cole's a dweed!

So I have to write a paper on Nelson Mandela...

it's due on Monday...

And i need to get off blogger and work work work!
hope you all have had an amazing week! Comments are love my friends

xxoo,

raigan

p.s. i still don't know what's up with these big ol' gaps!

There is a pair of panties in your toilet...

2008-11-14T19:54:00.004-07:00

LOL um....Analiese had a pair of panties in her toilet....so i really needed to make that the title even though it's completely irrelevant....but geez it was hilarious!

i burnt my left hand on my straightener...
and although it's a funny story....
it REALLY hurts

I also went shopping today and got oodles and oodles of new stuff!!! Sweaters, zip-ups, a scarf, NEW UGGS, and dresses! It was quite the trip my friends, quite the trip indeed!

I'll post pictures later...cause I'm a lazy bum and i don't really feel like making this post all that excellent.

This week has been pretty good, my step dad had surgery in saint Louis so my mom, brother, and him went there all week for that and my grandparents stayed here with me. I went to two basketball games that were great fun!!!! I definitely missed basketball season and yah know just being with my friends cause without football and basketball games the only other thing we really do is go to the movies....and that just gets flat out boring.

I cleaned my room, it is SPOTLESS! OH OH OH! i finally got a full length mirror, that's a definite plus!!!

I have this armoire in my room that houses my television, and on top of it are like thousands of beanie babies (i was a cool child) and teddy bears of all varieties. This Thursday i took them all down, and although i know that,yes,they most definitely needed to go, i sort of felt like i was getting rid of my childhood. A couple tears were shed, nothing to major though haha.

We started playing this game at recess (oh yes, we still have recess in 8th grade, we're cool kids) called the oracle and oh man it's great. I'm gonna take full credit for introducing it because I'm just a brat like that. And I started off wanting to explain it to you...but now I just don't feel like it. Like I said, lazy bum!

Wow...i sound really conceited in this post with all my "yeah I'm just that cool"s and "I'm a brat like that", i promise that I'm not conceited....not even in the slightest bit.

I bought the new Taylor Swift CD called Fearless and my god, you all better get out there and buy it because let me tell you it is WORTH IT! It's beautiful, and can speak to pretty much everyone! I cried, no joke. I don't know if it's just me, but when she sings i feel like she's talking to me.

I also got the twilight soundtrack and I'm SOOOOOOO excited to go see the movie! Not to sure when that'll happen cause I think that on the 21st me and Victoria and Analiese and maybe Melissa might go see The Plain White T's, Meg and Dia, and The Cab!!!!!!!! I'm uberly excited for that, yes UBERLY!!!!

This post was kinda fun....i like filling y'all in on my not-all-that-exciting life!

I do need some post ideas though cause I'm pretty sure you guys are kind of getting tired of this kind of post...suggestions?

xxoo,
raigan

Oh Geez...

2008-11-09T14:28:00.008-07:00

So...I've been a crappy blogger. Yeah, I'm sure you're fully aware of this. But i DO have excuses!!!

I went to visit my dad's family this weekend,thank God i did not see that man, but yeah it was nice.

I pretty much screamed with joy for about 3829572958723985 minutes when i learned that Obama won the election!!!!!! TAKE THAT NARROW MINDED CATHOLIC SCHOOL!!!! wootwoot!!!! The only downer is that kids at my school have decided that assassination would be the best option for our country, psh I'll assassinate them if they lay a hand on my beloved Obama's head!!!

I got my camera back....PICTURES! haha

I have been tagged by the ever so lovely MARY (http://hailmary-fullofgrace.blogspot.com/), and i just thought I'd mention that she is a very lovely girl with amazing fashion sense! And amazing hair!

kay so here goes it with the tagging!

1. Link to the person that tagged you
2. Post the rules on your blog
3. Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself
4. Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs
5. Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.

1.When i was a little girl i was convinced that our car would not go until my seat belt was buckled, my mother trained me well!

2. I buy a lot of shirts, i only own 3 pairs of jeans and oodles and oodles of shirts. It's a severe problem, but the highlight in it is that leggings are a common part of my life. And everyone loves leggings!

3. I often lay in bed at night and think about other people, like...Paris Hilton (just an example, not a common one!), and think about how somewhere out there he/she is doing something at the same exact time as i am thinking about them.
4. I'm one of those people that masks pain with humor, I'm learning that it's not the best way to go about life.
5. I went on a twilight reading binge where at one point my views on fantasy and reality got twisted, and i actually started to believe some of it.
6. Getting text messages makes me like EXTREMELY happy, it's kind of un-real how excited i get when people text me.

now you know just how much of a dork i am! I tag...

1. Sydeny (http://sydney-speel.blogspot.com/)
2. Alyssa (http://highschool-confessional.blogspot.com/)

3. Elle (http://ellebellerambles.blogspot.com/)

4. Ellie (you really don't have to do this, cause i get how hard it is for you with the characters and such) (http://elliencompany.blogspot.com/)

i really can't think of anyone else, and I'm tired....and this post is just awful but...but....i'm sleeeeeepy haha

xxoo,
raigan

McCain't and Nobama...

2008-10-29T15:15:00.007-06:00

I'm going to try my best to not let my personal opinions get in the way of this post...but I'm also in need of some serious venting so...if you're not in the mood for a rant, then this most definitely is not the post for you.

At my school, when you're in eighth grade and it's an election year, you have a mock election with people pretending to be the candidates. This involves voting, campaigning, making commercials, and having a debate. It's supposed to be an educational experience, and it's supposed to help us learn more about the candidates and about how an election works.

It's turning into fights and yelling and people like flipping out at other people just because they support a certain candidate.

The people at my school are very narrow minded and set in their ways, it's a catholic school in which the majority of the students base all their political knowledge on their parents beliefs and on what they see on television commercials, and not the cold hard facts.

I don't' care if you don't agree with me, but to go around calling me a terrorist and a baby killer, it's completely un-necessary, ignorant, demeaning, and frankly it makes you look like an idiot.

I really do loving hearing people's opinions, I love hearing about the topics they view as important, and I really am open to others opinions....but when you express your opinion in a way that is degrading towards others you are not making the candidate you support,or yourself, look anything but ignorant.

So what that I don't agree with you? I'm sure that not everyone who reads my blog agrees with me, but guess what you guys don't go around calling me a baby killer and a terrorist!

Hippie? oh yeah...I'm that also! Who knew that I killed baby's, smoked weed, crashed planes into national monuments, and sold our country to the Middle East!!! Sorry that I forgot to fill you guys in on my little escapades!

I'm not going to sit here and pretend that i know everything about the issues, I'm not going to pretend that I'm the most educated "voter" out their, but I'm also not going to sit around and let the person I support get verbally abused by a bunch of incoherent, ignorant idiots who seem to think that they have all the facts and know everything about life and everything about the candidates.

You're a McCain fan? THAT'S AWESOME! Because guess what, you get to tell me how you feel!You're an Obama fan? THAT'S AWESOME! Because guess what, you get to tell me how you feel!I don't care who you like...this is what it comes down to....You're an American. People died for your rights. Get your butt out there and vote!!!

xxoo,Raigan

p.s. barack the vote ;)

p.s.s. I'M GOING TO SEE OBAMA SPEAK TOMMROW NIGHT ON CAMPUS, IF YOU GO TO MU YOU MOST DEFINIETLY SHOULD GET YOUR BUTT DOWN THERE!!!!!!

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

2008-10-17T19:55:00.005-06:00

I dont know smashmouth, why dont you tell me?

I've been kinda bummed for a bit, long story short i went to visit my dad's family and well frankly all i could think about was how he doesn't care about me. Which is deifnietly enough to send a girl's emotion into wack.

Which would explain the lack of blogging, sorry about that. I really am trying to not let personal issues get in the way of this blog. But i've been really wacked out lately, and you wouldn't of wanted ot hear my whining. Promise!!!

I'm uberly excited for halloween!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm being batman, a very girly amazing version.

And today i was introduced to a very amazing local restraunt, best salad and grilled cheese EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OOOO and brownies, cant forget the delicious brownies!!!!

another thing that i'm excited about? photo contests! because guess what, i was Victoria's ("big sisters") model for one! http://www.wgsn.com/ you should go to that website, becuase it's awesome....and that's what the photo contest is for!

I'll put some pics from that up later, and i WILL comment back, i'll do it i swear!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL DO IT!!!!!!

i wouldnt read this if i were you...

2008-10-04T10:32:00.003-06:00

Not to sure what this post is going to be about, I'm just bored....and haven't really been the best blogger lately considering i don't have pics up of the new hair or anything

it's just been a really......blah week. I haven't been in the mood to do much but hang out in my sweat pants and sleep. At school we had all our standardized testing this week and it just totally sucked the life out of me, im in need of some fun.

Which is why i went shopping yesterday with Victoria to get some flippin sweet clothes...wootwoot

American eagle is the bomb, Victoria's secret has amazing sales....and target is just amazing

I got that dress at American eagle, except it doesn't have the bow on it.......and i had no idea it was supposed to have a bow on it till i found this pic haha

Um....geez i hate this post like a lot i sound so depressed, which I'm really not....just a bit drained.....ahhhhhh make me happier with comments :)

xxoo,
raigan

seriously???

2008-09-29T20:13:00.004-06:00

Alright for starters.....the pictures in the below post are of BEFORE the adventure in hair dying, the pink is fake (i fooled u, i know). Although it would be wicked awesome to have a pink streak, my school would make me cut it out, or do it themselves, so i didn't risk that with permanent dye and opted for an extension....that is now out.

Onto the next point....my hair is brown. I'm a brunette. Woah...words i thought i would NEVER say. It's a nice sandy blond sorta brownish color...i will have pictures soon i promise but really i don't feel like taking any right now (yes, this is a first)

Now onto what this post is really about...opinions.

I believe everyone has the right to their own opinion, but you do not have the right to express that opinion in a way that will CLEARLY hurt and/or offend others. I know that you can never please everyone, but let me give you an example of the comments I'm referring to

Me: guess what, it's national hug a vegetarian day, YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO HUG ME! *laughs*

Science Teacher: you're a vegetarian? uh....why?

Me: well, i do not have a problem eating meat but i do have a problem with the way the animals are treated before and during they re slaughtering, which is why i choose to not support an industry which tortures animals (note: this is a re-hearsed line used almost daily)

Science Teacher: ew...i like meat in my belly *gives a death stare*

REALLY? REALLY? Are you seriously that close minded, rude, and impolite to express this in front of a whole entire science class????

Couldn't you of just said, "oh, well i eat meat"! When you tell me you eat meat, i don't jump all over you for not being a vegetarian...

onto my next example...

This one comes from talking about gay and lesbian marriage, gay and lesbian relationships, etc.
I go to a catholic school, and although i do see myself as catholic, i do not agree with everything the church has to say....and i also do not think that the topic of homosexuality should be brought up in school considering the fact that almost always SOMEONE is going to get hurt...on we go

Me: I really don't think it's bad, God intended us to find love, at least that's what I've been told since i was five, and i honestly don't think he cares whether that's between members of the same or opposite sex

Gage: oh my god i can't believe you! That's disgusting! Two guys kissing, ewwww! That's nasty!

I do not care if you don't agree with homosexuality, i really do believe that that's something that is up to you, but when all you have to back that up is "ewww yucky!!!!" i have a hard time trying to take you seriously.

As much as I'd like to say I'm a strong diplomat who likes to see both sides of a story or opinion...it's hard for me to do so when those presenting the points have no legitimate reasons for their beliefs....

So if you're going to make a comment, be tasteful...it really isn't that hard, think about how YOU would want to be treated and how YOU would feel in the other person's shoes.

And have something to say other than "ewwww yucky"....you end up looking like a narrow minded (not to mention un-educated) jerk.

xxoo,
raigan

jeans, american eagle. button-up, target.

(the jeans look like they are the right length, but trust me they are much to long in reality)

this blog and i are in need of some serious change...

It's been almost a year since i started this blog, and 100 posts later a bunch has changed in my life. Pretty much no one calls me reggie, and frankly i just used that so i wouldnt get stalked. For one, i like my REAL name. For two, i trust all you lovely bloggers out there to not come and find me!

So here it is folks....RAIGAN is my name and i'd appreciate it if thats what you would call me!

Oh and i just wanted to throw this out there but me and the boyfriend broke up....like a month ago....hehe sorry for not informing you guys. Trust me, it wasnt a blog worthy event haha.

.....and the fact that he's probably reading this uberly frightens me but whatever, life shall go on!

And guess who bought skinny jeans that are actualy the appropriate length?! MEEEEE! being the 5 foot (yes, exactly 5 feet but only when i take an extremley large breath in) freak that i am, this is a hard hard task! But finally, my loverly PacSun has graced me with the awesomeest jeans in the univerise.

I'm a happy camper today :)

xxoo,
raigan

Apoligies...

2008-08-12T13:29:00.004-06:00

First I'd like to apologize for the recent hiatus...tons of stuff is going on right now, and lots of change is happening, and I'm still trying to figure out if its for the better but i guess that's just part of life.

And i had a run in with the infamous biological father!!! Talk about funtastical....yeah right. I was in Kansas City for about a week, visiting my dads (real dad, not my stepdad) family, and we (we= two 8 year old cousins, my aunt missy, and my g-ma) went to wal-mart after seeing Mama Mia, i turned a corner and ran into him, literally. It was a "hi and bye" kind of conversation where he not only took no interest in me, ya know his own flesh and blood, but also dissed Boys Like Girls.

I cried once we got to the car.

I guess i was still holding onto that one little bit of hope that he, ya know, gives a crap about me. And that maybe he's changed, grown up, and decided to be a real dad. I guess some things will never change.

=/

hunter is doing good, he's a cutie, i love that little guy!!!!

And as for style...I'm trying to get a more defined kind of style. Because normally I'm really random, and i want to be kinda preppy with a bit of an edge.

Any advice?!?!?!?

Taylor Swift's new CD is the bomb...go to wal-mart and buy it please, I'll give you a big ol' hug!!!

:) I'm a lame-o

xxoo,
reggie

Everybody say "awwww"...

shut up....im sleep deprived :P

so anyways i realized that im going to make the best of my last year at private school, hold my head high no matter what, not let drama get in the way, not let a certain girl with a certain passion for eating disorder humor tick me off to terribly much, and just roll with the punches becuase this is the last year i'll be with all my beautiful friends all in one place.

oh gosh im actually getting all teary eyed as im typing this....geez raigan get a friggin grip!

p.s. 90TH POST!!!!!!!

money money money...

2008-07-16T16:41:00.003-06:00

Have you ever realized that almost everything in life revolves around money? You either don't have enough, have to much, dont have any, or need more.

Why? Why is money such a huge deal?

Seriously, if we didn't have money life would be sooooo much better! You would work for pleasure and not because you needed the money. You would go to school simply to learn things just for knowledge, and not because you need the intelligence for a future job that would require money. People who are starving wouldn't starve, because the majority who do dint have food because they don't have money for it!

Notice a pattern here?

I was just thinking about this today because i was thinking about all the things i want, material things. Digital camera, clothes, itunes dollars, CD's, iphone, macbook, juicy couture purse, louis vuitton, etc.

If i had about 70000000000000000000000000 dollars, i could have everything i wanted. But if we didn't have money, we could almost all have what we want.

I know, i know there are many holes in my theory but if you think about it without thinking about all the chaos and problems this could cause it would be really really great for the world.

Kinda like how the idea of Communism was actually pretty intelligent and good, until it actually got fulfilled and turned out to be pretty dang horrible.

Yeah thats it for my rant...

xxoo,

Its to early...

2008-07-04T02:45:00.005-06:00

Or late depending on how you look at the world, but its 3:45 A.M. (in the morning) and i am WIDE awake! Because i got up at 6:30 AM...and worked/volunteered all day, came home and crashed at about 5....and woke up at 1:30! And layed there for a while debating whether or not i should actually get up and do something...i ended up getting up! WOO go me! I'm motivated...nawt really.

Ya know what i hate the most about this? i wake up and i feel like my throat is gonna just close up cause i am SOOOOOOOOO thirsty...now I'm drinking some water so I'm all better! ALMOST!

GAH I'm a loser...lol

IDK if any of you read the blog "Hail Mary" (http://hailmary-fullofgrace.blogspot.com/) but you should because shes an awesome writer and even though i dont know her she seems really nice!

AND I'm taking her school of culture challenge and you should to because really, we all need to be cultured!

And now I'm going to tell you what i learned about David Suzuki!

*forceful spokesperson on the subject of global warning

*he has produced many popular television shows that endorse the need to work with nature, not against it

*his family (mom, dad, twin sister Marcia, sister Dawn, and sister, Aiko) suffered internment in 1942, when he was 6 years old, during World War II

* in 2006 he received the Bradford Washburn Award from the Museum of Science in Boston, Massachusetts

that's only a little bit of what i read about him! Very interesting i didn't even know who he was until today!

Today at my volunteering job i met this man and i was supposed to take him back to whatever department he needed to go to and i go "hi I'm raigan!" and he goes "hooray! good for you!" mmm gotta love sinical people!

5 songs I've listened to over the course of this post:

1. I'll be there for you by: Bon Jovi

2. Holly (would you turn me on?) by: All Time Low

3. The Beach by: All Time Low

4. She's Got Style by:Never Shout Never (I LOVE IT!)

5. Shameless by: All Time Low

clearly i listen to a lot of All Time Low...

speaking of music! I'd love to have some recommendations of songs i should listen to!
Don't feel stupid, tell me what you like, because I'm always in need of some good music!

Music makes the world go round!

AND GUESS WHAT!!!!! On Sunday my boyfriend and best guy friend come home from camp! MY LIFE IS GONNA BE COMPLETE! lol! I'm really excited...its been a long 8 days...and now i only have like 2 left! yippeee!!!

Ya know what ticks me off? Skittles! because they say you can taste the rainbow, but you cant cause there is no blue skittle! (ROY G. BIV!) I should sue them for false advertising...but really i do wonder why they left out the blue, one color! would it of killed them to add ONE color!!!!

tsk tsk!

wow...clearly i have to much time to think at the moment!

I'm gonna get a pedicure this weekend! Yes i know you guys are excited!

This post is simply falling apart...

One of the greatest nights of my life actually! Jacob...is hilarious, the kid like wont talk to me anymore but whatever he's hilarious. I miss this :( one night when the majority of us got along...yeah never see that happening again!

this just makes me laugh...we look totally diffrent now lol and this was in like...eh...febuary i think

Get Smart...

2008-06-26T15:31:00.005-06:00

I saw Get Smart last night and let me tell ya, it may not of been the most complex movie ever but i thought it was HILARIOUS!!!! And i never thought i would say this about the movie, but anne hathaways clothes we're absolutley AMAZING! I'm sure my friends we're about to kill me everytime i said "ohhhh i want her earings, look there chanel! OMG her sunglasses are fabulous! wow i love that dress!" the list could go on for ages...:)

Which brings me to my next topic...The Devil Wears Prada, yes i know its a fairly old movie, but i've been obssed with it lately! i mean the clothes are just stunning! And i just love the story of the whole movie, and mostly the clothes! hehe

Basically what im saying here is that Anne Hathaway rocks my socks and totally flips my flops...:)

Volunteer...

2008-06-20T16:22:00.003-06:00

so on Tuesday and Thursday, every one this summer, i have to get up at 6:30 (AM...gahhhh) and go volunteer at the hospital where my mom works. Don't be fooled into thinking "what a great young woman taking time out of her summer and beauty sleep to volunteer at a hospital!" oh no my dears, being selfless has nothing to do with it, nothing at all. Being told by my mother that i had to, now that has EVERYTHING to do with it.

The first day...was pretty bad, not awful but pretty bad. I got stuck in med. records making charts, and that wouldn't of been bad because it was organized and i got to do something that was methodical and fairly easy, but the woman i worked with...was certifiably insane, i sware it! She had this need to tell me EVERYTHING about her self, and i mean everything, every personal detail right down to her first boyfriends birthday (march 31). You may think I'm exaggerating...but i sware to you i am not! Then when she asked how old i was, she was shocked that i was only 13, after all she had just confided in a 13 year old!!

Now the second day, was great!!!!! I got to work in the Laboratory, which sounds awfully officially....but not really, i was sorta a secretary i guess. OH OH OH i can now use a fax machine and a copy machine thingy and i know where P.O.E.T is...lol. I go to take patients to where they needed to be and pick up blood samples, it was really interesting actually, i liked it alot! Which is weird cause normally i hate blood and needles and all that lovely stuff!

Then after that...my boss made me work at the information desk for one very very very long hour...it was a bunch of little old ladies worrying about what they were going to cook for dinner, need less to say it was anything but thrilling.

So yeah...that's my summer "job" that i don't get payed for :( whatever i guess its better than sitting at home, OK some days its better than sitting at home.

OH and I'm reading this new book called Vanishing Acts and its by Jodi Picoult and its amazing and you should go buy a copy of every Jodi Picoult book ever made right now!!!!! Especially my sisters keeper because it is definitely classified as "my favorite book of all time"

xxoo,

reggie

p.s. sorry about the extreme length of this post, if u read this whole thing...Jesus love you extra!

Random...

2008-06-16T15:28:00.006-06:00

Yeah i'm seeing Inidana Jones tonight and i'm really hoping it'll be good, if all else fails i can just drool over shia labeouf...hehe my boyfriend would just ah-dore that!

Speaking of him...he's outa town like all summer, theres like 3 days i can hang out with him...which really really sucks. But we text almost every second of everyday and talk on the phone alllll the time...yeah yall probably really do NOT care but whatever. hehe

This is kinda late to be talking about...but the newest teen vogue (with Hayden Panettiere on the cover) simply amazed me.

The olympic sports "our way" editorial was stunning...especially the Track and Field category

How can you not love that?

And Hayden looked absolutley gorgeous!

She just looks so...naturaly pretty. I know shes wearing makeup, its a cover shoot of course she is, but she just looks natural and not over done. And she seems so nice and approachable. And the clothes just seem so...her. She owned it!

xxoo,

reggie

Wow...

2008-06-13T16:07:00.004-06:00

I take way to many pointless pictures

Oh and i've realized that im WAY to dependent on my phone and texting

yeahhhh...im addicted

Got those shorts at american eagle...i like them alot, kinda on the verge of love but i have a problem saying i love an object of clothing.

dear god...what am i talking about

xxoo,
reggie

p.s. yes i know this was really pointless and stupid

You can start screaming with joy riiiiiiight abouuuuutttt.....NOW!

2008-06-11T17:39:00.003-06:00

Thanks to Sydney and taffy and whoever else reads this crap i'm back!!!

YAHHHH lol

so where should i begin...

well last week i was in Iowa...and in case you didn't know its flooded and insane, houses are under water. My grandparents are lucky cause they dont live directly on a a river.

It was insane though, corn fields were like ponds, and im not exagerating. Its suppose to get worse.

And summer has been...pretty lame so far im not gonna lie. Its okay though, im definetly not complaing...i'll wait a couple weeks for that ;)

So yeah im back...and better than ever (maybe, my sanity is kinda on the line right now) so what do u guys wanna hear about?!?!?!?

xxoo,
reggie

(i really miss doing that!!! lol)

Not back...

2008-05-26T13:14:00.001-06:00

Still alive! really happy with life at the moment!

xxoo,
reggie

I quit...

2008-05-12T16:24:00.001-06:00

There is to much going on in my life to worry about this blog, its not like anyone really ever reads it anyways so yeah.

Sorry to all of you who actually do read it, i'll be on to comment and stuff but i mean i probably won't b blogging...in case you didn't notice my posts have sucked majorly for a while so yeah i'm done with this.

Sorry, if u really knew me you'd understand, theres just way to much that i need to worry about right now that doesn't allow me anytime to worry about this blog, srry again, i suck i know :)

xxoo,
reggie

I don't care what they say, i'm in love with you...

2008-05-08T21:02:00.004-06:00

Its a bubble dress!!! (don't hit me)

I know lots of you hate them, but i for one love this dress!

And i added some lacoste to it, so does that make anything better? haha

I still need to find something cute to wear under it...none of the above are really working for me

Thoughts? Suggestions? Anyone even read this anymore?

xxoo,

reggie

Take me away, i'm gonna hurt somebody...

2008-05-06T16:15:00.004-06:00

My hair sucks, jus thought you guys should know! Here it is on a very very good day...

Yeah i know what your thinking "wow i'd hate to see it on a BAD day!"

Bleh....it needs a trim!

Any suggestions?!??! i'm willing to switch up color and style, but NOT length!

Suggestions r greatly appreciated!!!

School can offically be called Suck-tastical! Woo! I'm getting to the point where everyone (except about 5 people) and everything annoys me about it. Certain people are making me insane, and i need a break or i'm going to hurt somebody! *hence the title of this post*

I feel like im trapped at school, like everything i do or say is watched and scrutinized. And as much as i know i shouldn't, i'm constantly thinking about what other people are thinking. It's totally ridiculous, and i know that, but its true!

But i do have a happy story to tell you!!!! There's this boy....(haha you KNOW this is gonnna be good) and well quite frankly he makes me feel special, i love it! :)

Now i'm going to go do homework! cannot wait!! lol

xxoo,

This is, in a way, a birthday gift to all of you from me! On one hand, all the people in the blogging community who read my blog have to hear about my friends all the time. And all my friends who read this have requested/demanded/begged for a posts about ALLLL of them....yeah they're cool like that ok! Soooo here i go!!!

Melissa: I've hated you, i really have!!! haha what a great way to start, it all started in kindergarten when i totally tattled on you for having gum, then there was the whole "well i'm only your friend because emily's your friend!!!" incidents in 3rd grade. And then WAM! I don't really know what happened, but we suddenly we're joined at the hip! And i will never ever regret any of it, because now we know life is better as friends! You've seen me at my worst and at my best and you STILL love me, we laugh about EVERYTHING!!! (ie. honkie stickman, sexy headbands, and freaky men with big coats). The memories are endless, thank you for being here for me for like, ever!!!

Madisen/Maddy: What a great girl!!!! I honestly had never really hung out with you until this year, but im sooooo glad i started! You are and amazing girl, and an amazing friend!!!! You've made me laugh countless times, and you always seem to find a way to put a smile on my face, Madisen you are amazing! i love you, in a totally non-lesbian sorta way!!! haha!

Victoria: what can i say about you Victoria!!!!! lol. You are 20 years old, and are honestly one of the nicest adults i have EVER met. I really do turn to you for advice, and you always make my problems seem much much smaller! You are WIIIIISE!!!! haha...we're dorks but i love it! Thanks for everything, and i mean that because there are alot of things that would of been alot more difficult if you wouldn't of been there to tell me it would all be ok!

Trisha: I know we haven't gotten along in the past, and even now sometimes we don't, but i think that's the beauty of our friendship, we always seem to get through it all and come out of it STILL friends, LYLAS!!!!Jackson: I hit you alot, and you get mad at me alot, but its amazing!!! HAHA!!! I think you've made me laugh a milliondy times, and i looooove that about you! Your great, and you actually listen to my silly girl problems, thank you for that!
Patrica: AGHHHH ITS GOYZLE!!!!! teehee, i love you, you have been here for the tears and the laughs and that is why i love you, you know i can be a total mess but you still love me anyways, and that's awesome!
Chas/Chazzle Dazzle: not only are you my best friends boyfriends, but i can honestly say you are one of MY best friends! You make me laugh, and give me coffee candy bars in homeroom to jump-start all those loverly days that begin with me whining about...hmmm...EVERYTHING!!! You rock my socks barbee boy, and soooooo totally flip my flops!!!!

Gates: i love you, nuff said!!! haha, your great gates. Whether your pole dancing at recess, or being emo with a fork at lunch, you ALWAYS make me smile. I will never forget when you hardly even knew me and i was crying, you would ALWAYS make it all better, and that is why your a great friend. And plus ur like the only boy that lets me say i love you, haha!!! (p.s. this is an awful picture of both of us :)

last but not least....*drum roll*

Cole B: okay your real name is Cole, but i pretty much always call you Cole B...hmmm i wonder??? lol, i have known you since i was 5 and we played soccer, remember when Jeffrey broke his arm and I cried? That was great, it really was. You have been here through literally everything, you've probably seen me cry a million times and hear me laugh a million times more, and you STILL stick around. You can ALWAYS make me laugh and you are always there to actaully listen, and to make my problems seem sooooo much smaller, your amazing cole you really are! Thanks!

I love you all, i really do, happy birthday!!!! hahaha!!!!! Speaking of those....MINE IS ON SATURDAY!!!!!! Okay, i love you, byeee

High school...

2008-04-20T11:31:00.002-06:00

One more year to think, plan, and initially make my self insane about this topic.

In some ways, it feels like a very very long time to make up my mind on which high school to go to, but in other ways it feels like only a very small amount of time to make a decision that will essentially influence the rest of my life.

I'm not going to lie, I'm terrified for high school. There i said it, yes I'm a baby, whatever.

SO here's my situation, I'm currently at a private catholic school with people I've known since i was 5 years old (some of you even longer!) and I'm soooo scared that I'm going to get to high school, and lose all of them.

The way i look at it high school could go one of three ways:

1. I show up, being the "new girl" that nobody knows, and nobody seems to care about. And eventually, all the hype will where down and I'll be left in the dust. Spending my high school years off to the side with one or two friends.

2.The first few weeks will be nerve racking, I'll have a panic attack and end up institutionalized for the rest of my life

3. Its normal, i go there meet new people and move on with my life like no big deal.

You make think I'm kidding about the second one, but trust me it, it could happen OK!!!

On to my next high school issue, where the heck am i gonna go??? I have three options, humongous ghetto school, large rich people school, small town school where people are normal everyday people and don't worry about money and all that good stuff that the rich school would make me worry about.

Oh and fourth, boarding school!!! YAAA!!! i actually think it'd be pretty cool...but my parents aren't so found of the idea.

As for now i have a year or so to freak out about it...lovely i know!!!

xxoo,
reggeie

80's...

2008-04-15T20:17:00.005-06:00

Wanna know why i love 80's fashion? Because it could b as loud, bright, and obnoxious as you wanted it to be!!!! That's my kinda fashion!!!

Oh and do you wanna know why i love my friends? Because of that, they are insane and they make me insane, which makes me happy! I love you guys, and 80's night was the bomb diggity!!

My bestest bestest bestest frined melissa came over and we got ready together, lol yeah 2 girls and some insane eyeliner!!! yeah thats what i call AMAZING!

*note: we had an 80's night at our youth group, we don't dress like that normally...ok well some of us!!!

xxoo,

Prom...

2008-04-14T19:27:00.006-06:00

(photos teenvogue.com)

When it comes to prom, i find myself agreeing with the lovely Christian, its "horribly tacky". But, after reading "the bible" (AKA teen vogue) I've been thinking more and more about prom. So what that its about 5 years away, a girl can dream!

Teen vogue beautifully painted my idea of a fairytale prom, complete with Betsey Johnson,Chanel, and an adorably dorky boy. I don't know about you, but if i look half as stunning as these girls do at MY prom, it will definitely be a night to remember!

So people, get excited, cause if I'm still on here in about 5 years, you'll get to see how stunning III look at prom :)

xxoo,

reggie

p.s. go pick up a copy of Teen Vogue, it'll make your heart smile!

And...

Walking Away...

2008-04-08T20:21:00.003-06:00

Alright so, I'm not leaving the blogging world forever. I'm not even leaving for like 3 weeks, i just need a break. I need some time to come up with actually good stuff to post about! In case you haven't noticed my last couple of posts have been majorly suck-tastic. Im just running outa things to talk about. And plus, there are a TON of things i need to do for school. My fourth quarter grades are terrible, no joke they would probably make most kids cry. But not me, I'm used to failure! lol!

So yeah my people, I'm taking a short break. Please don't miss me to much :) love you all!

Poetry...

2008-04-07T18:55:00.006-06:00

Mkay so i was reading the MEGA-AMAZING blog Walmart Will Do and i noticed that she had done a post with one of her poems, im not stealing her idea, i was just inspired by it. So yeah here goes...

I simply cannot take it anymore
and all i want is to give up
i would love to just let go
walk away
and never look back

But then i think of you
and i remember
why i've stuck around for so long

NEXT:

Broken, torn apart
War remains, where peace once stood
Searching, wanting, lost

Ok ok i know their both not all that great, but all my good stuff is in my Language Arts teachers classroom, so yeah I'll make this better tomorrow :)

xxoo,

Field Trip...

2008-04-02T16:12:00.006-06:00

Yesterdays outfit:

shirt: local boutique

skirt: Delia's (see "shopped till i dropped" post"

So yesterday we went on a field trip to some library in Kansas City. And that^^ is what i wore!I really love that outfit! The only bad part was that i had to sit in a bus for 2 and half hours, like a school bus...ick! And thats 2 and half hours BOTH ways! lol it was kinda fun though!

I got to:

*listen to Gates (my guy friend) sing Hannah Montana and Hillary Duff

*steal Chas's ipod

*take a bijillion pictures

*laugh at Maddy be stupid

*draw ice cubes and other cool things with Melissa

*laugh at absolutely nothing

*get lost in a dark hallway

*get the pee scared outa me when someone jumped out at me in that dark hallway

I loooooooooved it! it was really one of the best days of my life. I love my buddies!!!!

oh and i found about 50 pictures of this on my camera when i got back home:

That would be Gates...he's not only my ex-boyfriend, but also one of my all time best, best friends. Isn't he just sooooo cute? lol!!!!

Song of the day: follow you into the dark by:death cab for cutie

p.s. i'll post more pictures from it later

Abercrombie and Ruffles...

2008-03-28T13:12:00.004-06:00

Yesterday's outfit:
shirt, Abercrombie
jeans, Pac-Sun

Today's outfit!!!

Dress/shirt thing: forever 21

Jeans: pac-sun

t-shirt:old navy

I really had no inspiration for either outfits. But today's is definitely my favorite of the two! I would do posts like this more often, but i go to a school with uniforms, and i know you guys would get very very tired of seeing khaki's and white Polo's every single day!

That brings me to my next point...

spring break has shown to me just a little more of how much i loooooove clothes, and how restricted i am from showing that at my school. Some days i actually wish we had plaid pleated skirts like private schools in St.Louis. Because at least they are colorful, and at least you can accessorize those much, much better. Poor me...restricted by our society! Don't these people know I'm going to be famous one day??? Haha!

oh yeah...I've decided to do a song of the day thingy

So today's song is "Fix You" by Coldplay, I've been watching wayyyy to much of The O.C. on break, which has lead me to my obsession with this song! go check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBEYyHGbwto

Dancer Chic...

2008-03-26T12:36:00.006-06:00

Dress: Victoria's secret

leggings:forever21

uggs: Nordstrom

I love this outfit a ton! It reminds of a dancer for some odd reason. Maybe i was channeling Jenna Dewan on step-up...

The flawless mix of cardigans, sheer skirts, and leggings just makes me smile! And the fact that Channing Tatum is in both those pictures doesn't hurt! Step-up is a really great movie, and I'm hoping you all have seen it. If you haven't you need to go rent it.

If you don't like it, just watch it to see all the ah-mazing clothes! Seriously, you'll be impressed!

What boredom makes me do...

2008-03-17T17:37:00.002-06:00

Last week our Dryer broke. Not only was it frustrating, but we also had to go to the laundromat. It was a very, very long night. And i got very, very bored. So i took some pictures. I really like how they turned out!

St.Patrick...

2008-03-16T14:49:00.003-06:00

So on monday (st.patricks day) we can wear green shirts with our uniform pants, which means khakis. I'm not quite sure if i like this shirt with the pants...but then again i can't just b normal and wear a green t-shirt (partly cause i don't own one, and partly cause i don't want to). So idk...someone needs to help me.

Blahniks...

2008-03-13T19:47:00.002-06:00

So a few days ago i said something about Manolo Blahnik, and my teacher had noooo clue what i was talking about. So i explained to her that manolo is a shoe designer who is a pioneer in the dashion industry. Then it hit me...i had truly never seen a Manolo Blahnik shoe, sooo after searching on the Neiman Marcus website, i found these gems!

So what that there $685! There gorgeous. There absolutely perfect, there the perfect mix of sassy and totally sweet, just like me. And if i wore heels like all the time, i would absolutely need them.

But sadly, I'm just a 12 year old living in a college town, and heels are definitely no where near being an essential...

Shopping till i drop...

2008-03-08T20:49:00.004-07:00

Shoping in St. Louis was awesome this weekend!

I got some really cool jewelry at Heritage 1981, that is such a cool store!

And i got 2 really cute kinda casual dresses at forever 21.

The brown and pink floral dress is by far my favorite...its for my birthday party thingy and i'm soooo excited to wear it. Its from Nordstrom.

The skirt was really cool, i think i might wear it high waisted with a red shirt tucked into it...idk but i really really love it!

the blue flowy shirt with the faux lace was really cool to, i got it (and the skirt) at Delia's, man do i love that store i truly could buy it all!

Oh and i got some cool sunglasses at Charollete Russe...

o yea and me and melissa got hello kitty neckalces (aka friendship neckalces) and i got fake chanel interlocking C's earings, sooo exciting!

It was an ah-mazing weekend, wouldn't trade it (or the things i bought!) for the world!

Raiganisms...

2008-03-02T00:17:00.004-07:00

Raiganism:term given to all air-headed, totally un-educated, things i say

So like...idk why but i LOVE doing these...

1. i'm terrified of places like the grand canyon, i'm afraid i'll get the sudden urge to jumped

2. i had my tonsils out when i was 9, and i almost died

3. a question that constantly runs through my mind is "why do asian people always work at nail salons?"

4. I am actually really good at writing poetry...i would never be willing to actually read some of my poems in front of people, but taechers have told me i'm really good.

5. I have an insane obsession with the book Twilight...and i haven't even finished it yet

6. i'm in love with a boy who i've know and loved since i was 5...its pretty sad

7. i love maccaroni and cheese, i could live off it

8. I've always thought it'd be cool to be named after someone

9. i don't hate the sound of nails on a chalkboard, but i hate the feeling of scraping your nails on a chalkboard

10. Cotton balls make me cringe...and when people rub fabric (other than silk) together, i sware i could throw up

11. Ketchup makes me puke, just the smell of it makes me gag

12. when i was little, i used to say "as a matter of fact" at the begingng of all my sentences

13.Me and my best friend hated each other with a severe passion from kindergarten to 5th grade

14. people say i'm random, but i don't feel like it, my thoughts fall in an order that makes perfect sense to me and so do my words

15. i have one of the craziest laughs ever...ask anyone...its insane

16. my cousins....there ah-mazing, i wouldn't be the person i am today without them

17. i honestly believe that Kanakuk camps saved my life

18. I've always wanted to run away...just to try it

19. i often ask people if i'm there best friend...its an impulse

20. its 1:30 in the morning....and i really should be geting to bed

Wanna hear a funny store? I haven't owned a non-designer purse since fifth grade. Call it what you want, but my mom seems to think the correct term for it would be "spoiled" i just tell her that "i'm not spoiled, i'm just well taken care of!" Apparantly she wants me to chage, so i found these bags, which are ah-dorable by the way, and i wanted to have a vote! Target is very very cool (thank you sooo much She<3Fashun!!!)! Anyone who is reading this, should cast there vote so i can make my decision better!!

A: an amazing white tote, black and white are, in fact, the best color combo around

B: this bag is just to cute, i love its nautical touch and it makes me think of vacationing in California...man do i miss that vacation

C: Cute, kinda trendy, i just like it and thats really all thats too it!

Thinker...

2008-02-27T17:41:00.000-07:00

Mkay, thanks to the MEGA AMAZING she <3 fashun (sorry i don't know your real name), i have been given the thinking blogger award! Thanks a bundle hun!

1. What is the story behind the name of your blog and the nickname?
To be honest with you, its a phrase that has ran through my mind for a few years now. I don't know where it came from but, i knew it'd be right for this blog

2. Why did you start blogging in the first place?
Mostly, because my rents wouldn't let me get a myspace. But i also did it becuase my youth group leaders knew i had an intrest in fashion. So they gave me the link to Teenfashionista's blog, and since then i've been hooked on blogging.

3. What has been your best and worst blogging experience?
The worst was probably the comment randomly left by one of my ex-bff's, yeah that really hurt. The best has definetly been just meeting super nice and genuinely cool people on here, i love the comments and i love meeting people.

4. What do you think/want to happen to your blog in 2008?
I would really like to start hitting the double digits when it comes to comments, but i realize that that's not going to happen over night!

I'm baaaack...

2008-02-25T19:12:00.000-07:00

Ya know how sometimes there comes a time when you want something sooooo badly, that it becomes a need? Well above would be my "need". I've looked it up on the Coach website for quite a while now, and its been my daily ritual, just to make sure they STILL have it.

So i'm debating wether i should bite the dust, and just buy it already. Or if i should wait until my birthday and beg my biological father for it...my daddy did, after all, come threw with my ipod touch at Christmas :)

Hmm....wow i'm a major brat. But i need it. And i'll do almost anything to get what i need :)

Well my loves...what do you think? Wait until my birthday? Or just go ahead, and buy it!!!???!!!

HELP!!

Rut...

2008-02-22T19:16:00.001-07:00

So i'm in a rut. I have nothing to talk about anymore. Nothing is really going on in life. And no one is commenting on my page. I'm just bored.

I guess something needs to happen in my life. Just diffrent, i honestly am just bore outa my mind half the time. These past few weekends i haven't hung out in a group of friends and i bet thats my problem.

Last weekend i spent the whole weekend with my best friend Melissa. It was a reallllll good time! Shes always fun, and i'm sooo comfortable around her its not even funny, i can waltz in her house like i own the place and its not a problem, cause i practically live there. God made us best friends cause our parents couldn't handle us as sisters.

Her sis was nominated for homecoming Queen. She looked absolutley gorgeous, she didnt win but she was still pretty. Love ya Katie!

well...i guess thats all for now

i'm going skool clothes shopping..woo more khaki pants and white polos, what a party! ;)

xxoo,

So...

2008-02-03T11:21:00.000-07:00

Well up until yesterday there had been no insane drama this year. Some of you may of read the comment on my last post by emzayy or whatever, well yup that wasn't even the worst of it.

So, as for my saturday it was spent changing my password on my AIM, emailing someone, and talking on the phone about how to solve all this ridiculousness.

Since when is it ok to call someone a fat whore and get away with it? Since when is it allowed to log onto to someone elses AIM and trash there buddy info? Because up until yesterday I thought all that stupid imature crap was behind the majority of my friends. I guess i was wrong about some people and i guess that this will teach me who to trust.

As for me, i think i'm just gonna be the bigger person, no matter how much i want to bash someones face in. Its stupid, and i honestly don't care anymore. I know this post doesn't make sense to the majority of you but...i needed to vent.

SO its a new day! and i'm gonna put on my happy face, and hang with the friends i know i can trust!

xxoo,
reggie
