I'm just bumbling my way through life. It's all trial and error. I'll be letting you know how things go.

Late Night Rambles
Hi all! Unfortunately, the school year has started once again. AP US History, AP English, math, marching band, and a few other sports have pretty much taken over my life.
However, I'm really glad that my youth group has started a one year Bible study together. We all read the assigned chapters everyday and check in on a google doc spreadsheet when we're done. So far, I've tried really hard to keep it up and I intend to finish the whole Bible by the time I start school again next year. This has really helped me and kept me accountable of all my quiet times and my relationship with God (it's also brought up some weird questions such as "Why was polygamy allowed in the Old Testament?" and "God was still able to forgive HIM after he did THAT?!"). Last year, I didn't do my quiet times or even read the Bible as much as I should have. Now, I make sure to do it everyday to go along the the Bible passages. If you'd like to get started on reading the Bible in a year, the plan is called Eat This Book: One Year Bible with Daily Psalms. Join me so we can slug through the genealogies together, haha.
Wow! I had no idea that I would go off on doing my quiet times everyday, but I just did. As you probably can tell, I didn't really have a "topic" to blog about today. (This will probably be the most random post you'll ever read from me. Ever.)
If you haven't already, please go and check out the Disney Dudez video on my previous blog post. The video is the most hilariously awesome thing that I've watched, simply because of the boy band, IM5, and the fact that it has the boys playing their own princesses. My favorite part is the second solo by the guy with the dyed blonde hair in the... red (?) pants. Cinderella's boyfriend. I just love the funky tune and how he sings it. Heart. Melting.
I hear that they might be doing another collab type thing with the director of the video, Todrick Hall (the janitor that does these awesome random appearances during the video). I'm definitely gonna keep an eye out for that.
And while we're talking about IM5, let me just mention their new song, Superman. It was co-written by Dalton (heart melting blondie) and Will (heart melting Asian). The first time I heard it, I wasn't sure who wrote it, but it turned out to be two of the guys in the band! I was super impressed because...
a) boybands usually don't write their own songs and
b) IM5 sounded really good when they sang it live (usually songs are auto tuned to the max, ugh).
So here is the video if you'd like to take a listen...
Last thing: I RECEIVED MY NAIL POLISHES FROM SEPHORA! Yay! They are all very gorgeous in their own ways, though I wish that I'd opted for a couple of other colors instead. In case you missed the Pre-Haul post, I'll link it right here... I'll try to do a post soon about the polishes, but I can't really promise anything, seeing that I haven't blogged since school started.
Hopefully I'll be back soon with legit stuff to blog about instead of random videos (even though they are awesome) from YouTube. :)

DISNEY DUDEZ (IM5)
My new favorite video that only helped fan my ever-growing obsession for Disney princesses (Ariel and Rapunzel, yeah yeah) and boy bands. Please, someone tell me how to stop falling in love with all five of the IM5 members!

Pre-Haul: Sephora by OPI Nail Polish!
This morning, I bought a bunch of nail polishes from the Sephora website! Normally I don't go on shopping splurges like this, but since I earned some money from working this summer, I decided to reward myself.
It also helped that there was a sale: 3 NAIL POLISHES FOR ONLY 10 DOLLARS!!!!!!!! Can you believe it?! Normally the polishes cost about 8 dollars at the least, please correct me if I'm wrong. But that was truly a bargain.
Another plus: Three free samples (you can choose out of nine) WITH ANY PURCHASE! I fully took advantage of that.
Here are the polishes I bought...
1. 212-Sephora: I loved all the little specks of different colors and thought it would look really great layered on top of black. Or maybe it'll work in a bunch of layers on its own... We'll see!
2. Mermaid to Order: The shiny iridescence really appealed to me for some reason. I guess the name of the polish also made me really want to get this. I'm obsessed with the Little Mermaid. :D
3. Bright as a Feather: I've always wanted a pale, eggshell blue color.
4. What's a Tire Jack?: I've actually never owned a black nail polish. And I feel like black is a very important staple to a nail polish owner, especially if you like nail art.
5. Casanova Is So Into Me: I've also never owned a pink either! I borrowed my sister's pink nail polishes for my blog posts. Now she'll be the one begging me for polish hehehe...
6. A Color That Can't Be Tamed: The description said it was a "mint green with fine holographic glitter". I thought that was pretty cool. It also reminds me of my favorite ice cream flavor, mint chocolate chip.
For these 6 nail polishes, it was only 20 dollars! Not plus tax or shipping, of course. But either way, I'm excited for my nail polishes ( and free samples) to come in the mail! It will be the bright point of my one and a half weeks of band/drumline camp.
Thanks for reading and go claim your 3 for $10 polishes right here.
