Busy bee.

Prom plans. 'nuff said. That is all I have to say for now. Also, my prom theme= Candyland. Which in my opinions just gives some people the excuse to dress up slutty, but I'm going to dress up..well we'll just have to wait and see now won't we ;)

Teen Depression

Pictures I've taken from various projects, one was of Teen Depression. I used those pictures in a visual argument for my AP English class, saying that:
The pain is an everyday thing. It's a growing problem and it's not always heard. Depression is bigger than just what it looks like on the outside, it's something that lives deep within yourself. Depression is bigger than any of us. And it's not something you can understand. It's not a surface problem. These pictures are supposed to represent the feelings of the people that they're too afraid to let known. People go through life everyday feeling worthless and alone, when in reality, they aren't. And they struggle with finding who they really are.
I created a collage, with pictures surrounding the one picture directly below this.  
It turned  out to be extremely powerful.







 I took about a hundred pictures during class that day and these were my favorites, I have a lot more that I used, of course.
 This one above was actually not an intentional photo but, it still made it in.
                                          Love this one..I'm not sure why but, I really love it :)
                                            It took a while to make this one work..



This project was actually a lot of fun (despite the topic), I really would like to join something like the Montana Meth Project (ever heard of it? Look it up!)

If you or someone you know is suffering from depression, you're not alone. Seek help in someone you trust.
You're not worthless. You're not alone. Remember, all of the people who love you.
If you or someone you know is suffering from depression that results in suicidal thoughts please call the National Suicide Hotline immediately: 
1-800-273-8255



Just a message to everyone: you're beautiful! And you will NEVER be alone! :) Please know that!

The Best TV Show. EVER.

FRIENDS.

I watch it every single day. I go to sleep watching it. I wake up watching it. And when I got home from our early release thanks to this crappy snowstorm in LATE March, I turned it on.

Yes, I do own all 10 seasons..Yes, I do have every line memorized. NO I NEVER GET TIRED OF IT!
I also have a Friends' cookbook!


Not only that, but I have an uncanny resemblance (in personality) to Monica, and slightly Chandler/Ross. I wish I was more like Phoebe but I am more like Monica than anyone else.

I am OCD. I obsess over every little detail. I am in love with food. I hate dirty stuff. I would totally go for guys like Chandler or Richard. I like things straight and I don't like when people change them. I am WAY too loud sometimes! I'm competitive (a bit less forward about it tho.). I've been planning my wedding and my childrens' names for years. And now I'm just rambling and I can go on and on..

Goodness. I love this show! :) I hope to either be on/write a show as good as this one one day.
Here's the poster in my room (from Amazon):



Anyway, I hope it warms up soon and I can actually go out and get a job..But I don't know when it's going to warm up, if it ever does. Then, I can get a job and go to the Thrift Store downtown, I need a desk for my room..

Well, this post was slightly pointless..I'll probably post something later that is more meaningful.

Blah

I had an okay day. My friends gave me a Pygmy Puff from Harry Potter World, I have yet to name her..She's pink and adorable!
Hopefully, I'll find a good name that will fit such a beautiful creature!
The end of my day was pretty bad..I had to quit track :( and then I went to my appointment with my chiropractor and found out why I get/have: horrible migraines, asthma, awful neck and shoulder problems.
I have scoliosis. Which for some reason, all my doctors have failed to check for despite the signs.

It's been getting worse over the years, and so I have to go in for 20 appointments because he wants to realign..I don't know the terms. He said he can't technically straighten my back entirely or make my allergies and asthma disappear completely but he can help stop my migraines!

Now, the whole thing is kind of a bummer, and I'm not sure why but when he put the xrays up and showed my crooked spine (which was kind of freaky), and then he told me that I had scoliosis, I felt like crying..I had no reason for it..I just did. I guess it's just that I have so many health problems and they get to be too much to handle after a while..

I guess I should be an optimist, even though it seems impossible so the one thing that comes out of this..umm:
I found out that one of my legs is shorter than the other! I can now tell people that! :)

Anyway, I have a head-splitting migraine right now, worse than ever before so until later,
Kaili

Inspiration

Mixing Prints! It's a scary thing..But if done right it can look awesome, when done wrong it will look like a train wreck.

 Notice how the outfit is very feminine and girly. The green sets off the pink in the floral quite nicely and the boots and bag add off a wonderful touch. The patterns don't class they enhance each other.
Choose patterns and pieces that will set enhance the other pattern nicely, make sure the colors compliment each other and most of all make sure the outfit is something you feel comfortable wearing and make sure the patterns look right to you! And remember you can never go wrong with matching accessories that set off the colors and patterns in the outfit!

Spring Breaks End

3.20.11
6:48

Spring break ends today.. Alas, the I only have one spring break left of high school..And I'm almost a senior..
I also have to prepare to go to state solo/ensemble in May! Which I am so nervous for..
All in all, I'm pretty happy right now! I'm really focusing on things I enjoy and I'm hoping that I can keep my grades up! I've been working on organizing my room, it's a paris themed room..Slightly cliched but I don't care because I love paris!
I've been thinking about prom..I wasn't sure I was going to go because it was so expensive, but I really do want to go..So I've been looking for dresses, I wanted something short, sweet and warm colored and nice and girly!

http://www.modcloth.com/Womens/Dresses/-Classic-Combination-Dress
 The Dress I'm considering..Is it too casual? Too short? Hmm..decisions..

So, right now I'm watching 27 Dresses, which means I will probably watch The Devil Wears Prada next, because it's one of those combination movie cases, where they have 2 movies in one case. I watch 27 Dresses whenever I'm feeling really upset or nice and at peace, and in my most creative, inspired mood. Today, thankfully, it's the latter!

Anyways, even though I don't actually know if people will actually read this,
I'll see you later,

Prom is not all about the big old long dresses, and the hot date. Prom is for fun. If you aren't comfortable in the big flowy dresses with tons of make-up, like me, then try a look that fits you!
This post was actually something that I myself would love to where for prom, maybe not everything, maybe I would change the accessories around a little but I like this look, it's very cute, chic, vintage, and it's something I would wear..

As for the dress: I LOVE IT. I figure: why spend so much money on something I'm only going to wear once, the dress isn't too casual that it isn't dressy but it's casual enough to wear again!

Advice for this style:
  1. Neutral/warm colors: nude, brown, tan
  2. Make-up: tans, light pinks, little bit of purple, enhance eyes to make them pop!
  3. Mix and match with accessories
  4. Vintage! This outfit is perfect for vintage touches everywhere!
  5. The headband sets it off as nice and sweet
  6. Have fun. :)

Photography


 I've been playing around with my camera.
I haven't had it for long and for some reason, EVERY time, I go to find a subject, it's almost always, one of my cats. I have got to find a new model! I do have some actual real person models and they are pretty good pictures but I probably shouldn't add them, when I don't have permission!


 So introducing, one of my gorgeous kitties. :)
I like the way the sunlight bounced off of her fur. She has such a nice color I just think it's so beautiful!

New Beginnings

It's been spring break..
The first half was awesome! I got to visit my two of my siblings who I don't get to see very often..
Unfortunately, my sister and I had to leave them to go home..

And after the six hour car ride we arrived back, almost in one piece, due to the oh so wonderful car ride, I hurt my back and I had to go to the chiropractor for them to fix it the next day..So, I've been in pain since then, however, This actually turned out to be a good thing!

Due to my injuries, for some reason, I've been in an unusually good mood! And this has gotten me into a wonderful creativity streak! I do have to quit track because I'll have to miss practices due to my back and my asthma, so it's really not worth it, but I've decided to make the best of my free time!

I'm putting all my energy and my new free time into my creative side!

So thus, here is where it all begins..
