*Awkward Silence* Hello.

So where I livs it is currently 11:40 at night. I should be asleep given I have to work and go to VBS tomorrow. But I'm awake (and blogging?) There is the most ANNOYING birds outside my bedroom window. And I really should go to sleep. Haha this is fun. I actually think I had a post in draft supposed to go up before this one, but I never finished it. LOL.



GAH I WANNA SHOOT THOSE BIRDS!



So this weekend I will be at a family reunion. I have to miss the super fun and exciting last night of VBS to go to a reunion with a bunch of family members I don't know. But, I will probably bring a doll or mini doll, and like last year get some pictures.



Maybe do some blogging via non internet needing, writing, app. So that I can enjoy documenting everything, and then later throwing it in to a post and hitting Publish. :p



Update on the now:


I'm busy, and trying to do this week long workout to get back into shape. I do like 50+ crunches on the days I'm supposed to, (I think I missed today's. Oops.) And 30 minutes of cardio. I'm also considering going 24-48 hours of drinking nothing but homemade juice and maybe some Keifer. But it's supposed to flush the bad stuff out of your body, so I'm think that next week I might do that, but for now I'll just make myself some juice and drink a glass of that a day to keep healthy.



It's late, I'm tired, goodnight.

New Perfume

I got a new perfume, FOR TWO DOLLARS!!!


I was out at Cato's Fashion with my mom and little brother, and I love their perfumes, all of which are impressions of really expensive stuff, but every single one is five bucks. Well I noticed two perfumes on clearance! I spritzed the tester of each of them, and fell absolutely in love with one of them, I had some extra cash, (The rest I'm going to buy the book, The Fault In Our Stars with.) And it said, 1.99, and I was like, WOAH, TWO BUCKS FOR AWESOME PERFUME! YES!


So I bought it. It is called Regal Crown our Impression of Katy Perry's Killer Queen.


And wow is it awesome! Here are some pics,

Here is the box, (It's standing in front of my mom's blue purse.) So pretty and fancy!

The side and the price tag, (See, in red pen, 1.99!! :D )

The back and all the stuff it says that nobody reads.

Opening from the top this is the first glimpse.

And the overall bottle! So gorgeous, I love the packaging and bottle shape.

Regal Crown in fancy gold.

The lid that somehow reminds me of Loki's crown in The Avengers.

The scent, this is important. I LOVE this scent. For two dollars it was worth it. It smells sweet like candy and fruit and flowers! If you like mature but not overly fancy, like an everyday springy summery thing, you will like this.

So, If you like cheap, good perfume go to Cato's Fashion and see if they have an impression of an expensive perfume from a celebrity, they also had a Justin Bieber impression scent, Angelina Jolie possibly, Paris Hilton I think, etc. 

They also have some other good scents and such. Like a very fancy but earthy scent called something like, Burberry. I forget, (Though once I buy TFIOS, I'm gonna save up and by my mom that Burberry scent, she might like that.)

Over all, I would give this a 4.8 out of 5, and recommend to everyone. 

Abbie R,

My Makeup/Skin Care stuff.

So this is what I have, what I use, and where I keep my makeup and facial care.

The cabinet above the toilet where I keep it.

The shelf, (There is a cluttered shelf of random stuff above this one.)

First the small stuff,

My Wet N' Wild eye shadow, in the colors I Got New Jeans. 

Some cream eye shadow from GeoGirl in the color Earth Angel.

My two favorite nail polish colors, (I can't find my clear one.) 

A minty/ neon green from Sally Hansen, (On the right.) And on the left a Wet N' Wild nail polish in the color Caribbean Frost.

Next is a makeup palette from Claire's, (See first picture, farthest item on the right.) I only use a few things in this, but I had a gift card and this was on clearance for 7.00 bucks!

A glass where I keep the few brushes and lip glosses I have. (The A stands for my middle name, Abbie is my fake name if you didn't know.)

The four lip glosses from a set I split up with one of my grandmother's last summer. The pale ones are more glossy then color, the dark ones are super bright, but look great against my insanely pale skin. :D If you are pale, the brighter it is the better it will look, I promise.

And my more expensive lip gloss, also very dark and bright.

Moving on to skin care,

This is an Equate Repairing Lotion. This is a lifesaver! It helps repair your skin, and with its major amount of Benzoyl Peroxide, it makes your skin feel nice and tingly. I got it on clearance for a dollar, but if you find it at Wal-Mart, get it if you can!

My one of many amounts of Vaseline. I apply this stuff every night, keeps down on dry and cracked lips.

And then this stuff, it is/was my mom's. But I have basically taken it for my own. It is Neutrogena Rapid Clear. THIS IS LIKE A MIRACLE FOR SKIN! It does what it says! Reduces break outs in eight hours! I apply this twice a day, and it is amazing. A must have for those who are prone to/have acne. (I don't, but I keep it from coming back, so yeah..)

That's really all I have. I'm planning on trying out some mascara for the first time soon. But I have to go and buy it still, LOL. 

Until my next post,

Abbie R,

New dress and new book

Here are some pictures of my new dress from Belk.

 I was so grateful when my grandmother bought it for me! She said it was a gift for Easter. It has an amazing feel and it fits perfectly! I was so surprised when I tried it on and it fit that well. It was an Extra Small! And I am typically a Small or Medium. 


Now don't get all upset because I'm thin and the "ideal" dress size of every woman in America. (I'm size 6 in numbers, Small in regular charts.) This dress ranges from XS to L, possibly XL!! And it flows nicely! The brand is Accidentally In Love, and again, it can be found in Belk as far as I know.

The ribbon bodice has a silky satin feel. And the chest is a ruffled and crimped fabric, same as the skirt.

The skirt is cut unevenly and trimmed with that beautiful aqua blue thread. I love this dress... :)

 And! One of many new books I have read\gotten, I suggest Beauty, by Lisa Daily. So perfect! And very truthful, well, in a magical sort of way. Bye for now,



Abbie R,

Puffalos and Penguin Knees!

So because I have noooo idea what to post about, today I am going to do something inspired by the Green brothers. I am going to write down every random thought that comes into my mind.




Do unicorns play the ukulele?

Lilo and Stitch!

Stitch has a Glitch!

Vanellope Von Sweets is like the best go-kart-er EVER!

Are cherries, berries or fruits?

Mangoes!

Pineapple Mango Orange Julius from Dairy Queen!

THE MALLLLLLL!!!!

Forever 21 here I come!

Perfume from Cato's Fashion.

Easter!

"Knock it off ya bloody show pony."

MY LITTLE PONY! MY LITTLE PONY!

If Shining Armor married Princess Cadence, who was a princess, who became a queen, does that make him a prince?

And if he was a prince, does that make Twilight Sparkle a princess, twice?

And is Shining Armor's name Shining Armor Sparkle?

Penguins DO have knees!!

Can I have a tiny buffalo the size of my hand that can ride on my shoulder?

And can it be puffy and soft?

Then it will be a Puffalo!

Muffin the Puffalo!

Corgis!

Dogs!

Finley!

Finn!

Fearless Finn Hofferson!

Astrid Hofferson!

Hiccup!

Toothless!

Fish? Fish. Fish! Fiiiiiiiissssshhhhhh!!!!




And there you have it, the way my mind works at night.


Abbie R,

Books you should read

Sorry everyone for not updating, but here is a list of books I think everyone should read eventually. ;)

Almost Home by Joan Bauer~ "Sugar Mae Cole sure could use some sweetness in her life." "Almost home, almost happy, soon maybe." This story is a sad but sweet tale that makes you realize how some people live and how great your life may be.

Number The Stars by Lois Lowry~ This book tells the story of a ten year old girl growing up in Copenhagen Denmark in 1943. A bit scary, a bit sad, but gives truth to some things. 

The Gentlemen Outlaw and Me by Mary Downing Hahn~ "In the old west, it's easier to be an outlaw than a girl."  This story sets in the old west, a daring adventure with an outlaw, a girl disguised as a boy, and an amazing dog.

The Homeschool Liberation League by Lucy Frank~ Just because this book is good and it needs to be read by more people.

The Trouble with May Amelia by Jennifer L. Holm. "May Amelia is about to learn one thing, she has got more sisu (that's Finnish for 'guts') than seven boys put together!"   If you think your parents are hard on you, read this book. And remember the lessons taught through it.

Yup, that's it. Just books, bye for now!

Abbie R,

Frozen Blog Party

I'm joining the Frozen Blog Party   time to answer questions!



   1. Who is your favorite Frozen character (or characters) and why?
   
Elsa, she wanted her freedom, and as much as I love Anna, she could have just gone back and left her sister. Though the frozen kingdom was a bit of a problem. 
  2. Which is your favorite Frozen song (or songs) and why?
I've got a soft spot for Do You Wanna Build a Snowman, but Let It Go tops it off.   
   3. If you could make one change to the movie, what would it be?
Probably Elsa and Anna's stubborn ways.   
   4. Would you want to see a Frozen sequel?  What would you want it to be about?

Yes, and I would love to see it about Eugene and Rapunzel's trip to Arendelle!    
   5.  Ice Palace or Arendelle Castle?

Ice Palace.   
   6.  If you could choose a sidekick from the movie, would you choose Sven or Olaf?  Why?

Sven, I want to ride him around.   
   7.  Do you think all men pick their noses, as Kristoff claimed?

No. I can certify that "all" men don't.   
   8. Which Frozen character is the most like you (or the one you relate to most) and why?  

Elsa... We love our younger siblings, but we like to be alone as it gives us freedom. And the cold never bothers us anyway.   
   9.  How many times have you seen Frozen so far? 

Once, but that will soon change as I now own it on DVD!
  10.  In keeping with my overall blog theme, ;) which of the Frozen dolls that have been released is your favorite?  (e.g. the Disney Store fashion dolls, Disney Store Disney Animator's Collection and Toddler dolls, Limited Edition Disney Store dolls, Mattel dolls, etc)

The Disney Fashion Dolls are my favorite, I should have gotten them...
