SCHOOOOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER!

I’m DONE. Yes, that’s right; it’s a great way to start out summer by finishing your exams. So I had two today, bio and English, and let’s just say I know I didn’t fail. Uhmm, so you’re probably expecting a dramatic layout change, I know. But I haven’t done a photo shoot yet. So you have to keep waiting. I am going to the beach soon, so that would be a prime opportunity to take some pictures. So what’s new? I am getting to that date where I star training for my job, 
Thank God I have something to do this summer. Last summer I went stir-crazy because I was alone, and bored. It sucked. But yeah! Nothing much is new.
So I have been watching this show, Pretty Little Liars, and it is sooo intense. Like obviously I commend the creators for making it a damn mystery and you find out like 1 new thing in every episode. Anyways, I suggest you watch it. It’s crazy! And there was a cute British guy, so you know,
Okay so unfortunately I don’t have much to say right now. I will get back to you guys soon, after the trip. Talk to you later!

au naturel


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Okay so I just had this huge blog post, and I exited the page, and I didn’t save the draft. And I worked so hard on it. DAMN IT. Okay so I am going to try to remember all the things I talked about. This sucks. It was legitimately a good blog post. Now this one isn’t going to be good as the original. UGH. Well I have learned my lesson and I am writing this now on Word.

 Okay so I am going to include fashion in this post since I feel like it and also because I am not as tired as I have been the past couple weeks. That is why I stopped posting every Friday. By the end of the week I am drained, and I just don’t feel up to it. Anyway, I am not tired most likely because I am well-fed. So for world issues class we went to this nice restaurant called the Green Tray. It was sooooo good. The place is pretty new, and it has a modern design to it. I really liked it. The food is amazing, and plus they are doing their best for the environment, with reusable bowls, and utensils, napkins made out of recycled paper, and also they have a glass wall so a lot of natural light can get in. If you’re ever in Kingston I suggest you go to this place, the food is amazing. 
 
 So speaking of the environment, this summer I suggest you wear a lot of natural items. There is no need to glob on the makeup and wear crazy heavy clothes. This summer light palettes like whites and warm colours are suggested. If you wear dark heavy clothing then you’ll just get all sweaty and it wouldn’t be fun. Accessories-wise this summer straw hats and satchels are nice. Plus wavy hair will give you that beach look perfect for the rising temperatures. This is a Fairway Crochet Top from forever21.com and its $17.80 US. You can find a lot of tops that look like this for cheap. Also go to some second hand stores. You wouldn’t believe all the nice things you can find. I still haven’t gotten to one, but with my new found first job (i know, i’m lucky) I will be able to spend my money wisely. On the environment note, I am pretty sure everyone has heard about the BP Oil Spill. 

It’s unbelievable that something like this could happen. Quite frankly the feeble attempts to stop it and clean it up are getting nowhere. To prevent something like this happening we could use our technological advancements to create an alternate fuel source. Oil right now is like the world’s blood. We have such a high dependence for it. I know right now we are developing an alternate fuel source, but so many things will have to change. We would need to get cars that work with it but even with that comes problems. There should be some sort of trade-in program that allows people for maybe a small fair get a new car that will help save the environment. So basically oil causes so many problems, why do you think troops are in the Middle East? Terrorism is one thing, but also it’s for the oil. We get so much oil from the Middle East, I am surprised that they haven’t started charging ten-fold for it. The world is going to die if we continue with what we’re doing. Yeah I like to think of myself as a struggling environmentalist. 


In Biology today we watched Planet Earth. It is such a good movie. Like really. They managed to document all these amazing things, like I never heard of half of these animals. Anyway I suggest you watch it. You will learn so much. Like the vampire squid is the strangest thing ever. Anything in the deep ocean is crazy. The cutest mollusc I have seen is called a nautilus (it took me forever to find it) but it moves backwards and is adorable because it bumps into things when it looks for food. I would totally love to see one of these.
So this is about all I had on my original lost blog post. Uhm, my exams are coming up so I will try to get back to you as quickly as possible. For some reason I am not as stressed right now as I should be. LOL. I don`t know if this is a good thing. Anyway I will be changing the layout soon. I really like the simplest theme for my blog, so I am sorry if it seems too boring. Love love, Amelia. 
P.S. I don't know if I have ever talked about this but I really really don't like justin bieber (notice that he isn't even important enough to get capitals in his name). Yeah so here is a picture where I had fun. I will do some intense Photoshop ones soon. :)
Enjoy.

time for a little heart,

So as you know I like to blog about fashion and other things. But what you didn't know is that I advocate for the individuals and the unique people.
A lot of this side of me gets lost in my blog posts, but I would just like to let you know that I don't blog about fashion to make sure everyone conforms to what I or others say. I just want people to know that these are ideas that you can choose to use.
What brought on this little realization is that a lot of people who are into fashion dress the same way. They aren't really reflecting themselves as individuals when they let their clothes speak for themselves. Anyway a person into high fashion may say something along the lines of the clothes make the person. But in fact it is the opposite, and you should not let your clothes wear you. Anyway I am going to end this in cheese and say it's not about what you wear but who you are as an individual.

P.S. I will be blogging again soon, trying to get back on schedule. Shout out to the people I went out to dinner with today. You guys are awesome, can't wait for the adventures next year. Also the 21st is coming up so that means I need a new layout. D:
I need to go out and do a photoshoot, so this will happen some time.
