I really should be writing a practice impromptu on a autobiographical narative by Gary Soto, in which I am to analyze his guilty six-year-old self, but I feel I've gone too long with out posting. Also, I have no clue what I am going to write about, so this is a nice form of procrastination. School has been absolutely crazy and I've been trying to keep up with all the runways so I can have something to report on but most of my time has been aimlessly wasted on Facebook and the likes, which is quite a shame but like the young Gary Soto, I don't have the strongest willpower. See what I did there?

Anyway, this weekend I discovered a few things that I'm sure everyone else was already completely aware of:

> Super Popular Blogger, Thirteen-year-old Tavi Gevinson

> Formerly-annorexic, now Super Popular Plus-sized model Crystal Renn, who was in both last week's newspaper and October's Teen Vogue, which I just got around to devouring this weekend

> Slow and Steady Wins the Race, via Tavi's blog. And these mad sunglasses from there.

Love! They remind me of the glasses the mice put on when Wallace and Gromit blast off to the moon in A Grand Day Out. Which is lovely because I adore those movies.

:D

Definitely waking up early early to write that essay....Good night!

The new iPod Nanos are amazing!!! Not only is there a video camera built in, there's also FM radio! So SICK. I am so excited about this! Note the exclamation points!!! This is why Apple is the best.

Also, it's New York Fashion Week! Check out the runways here.

Check out this list of the 99 most influential style blogs. So far I really like Go Fug Yourself, Garance Dore, and FaceHunter.

Just re-watched the Glee preview...Can't wait for the new episode next Wednesday! My brother is scoffing at the Journey cover, and I'm not incredibly attached to that song either unlike everyone else, but I love the Glee cast's version. I personally like Gold Digger better because Matthew Morrison has the lead. I know it's wrong, but he really needs to cheat on his wife with the ginger from Ugly Betty.

I realize that purple suits can turn people off because of Mean Girls. Now everyone thinks that if a girl is wearing a suit-especially a purple one-she's gay. Even though Janis wasn't even a lesbian. But anyway girls need to get over their purple-suit phobias. Suits can be pretty kickass.

Seriously, can you believe these are from Payless? Because I can't.

Ugh this summer has gone by so fast. Less than two weeks left!! I can't fall asleep till about 2 on most nights. It's a combination of it simply being my sleeping habit, and the fact that all I can think about is how far behind I am on all my AP summer work and how screwed I am. It's great.

I don't really have anything to "blog" about but I can't sleep and I can't bring myself to do the work I'm stressing about so I'll just complain about it on here. Possibly until I get really exhausted and have to crash. But I mean it's a blog, right? So I'm supposed to complain and ramble unnecessarily occasionally.

I started yoga again and it's nice to actually feel physically accomplished (does that make sense?) and sore for the first time this summer. Also, it's a nice procrastination technique. If I go twice a day, it takes up about four-five hours total.

Yayyy drawings. Yay.

And how about a nice Jason Mraz video for good measure.

I went on Style.com and the first picture I look at, the girl is wearing jellies. And not the new versions that they have out now. The good old fashioned kind. I used to get a new pair every year, I think usually in pink or purple. Man I was mad about jellies!! Until one year, either I couldn't find my size, or couldn't find them period. I still remember being incredibly heartbroken...

Anyway I was just really excited to find someone wearing these!

Also, jellies always make me think of Dane Cook.
