I'm liberal and know what's going on in the world. If you're offended by talk of religion (in a negative way), politics, civil rights, and sex then you're ignorant and don't read my blog. Thank you.

A Little Princess
So I’m watching A Little Princess which was my absolute favorite movie when I was younger along with Matilda (both rather fitting and influential to who I’ve become and my interests) and I’m realizing how much I learned from this movie. I learned about the realities of war, I fell in love with India, I learned about racial suppression, social hierarchies, and about religion. Didn’t think I could learn all that from a children’s movie eh? The greatest scene is when the main girl, Sarah, is talking to a younger girl about their moms being angels in heaven and then they notice a black servant girl listening to their conversation. The little girl says they aren’t supposed to talk to her because she’s a servant and she has dark skin. Sarah says “so?” and the little girl replies “well… doesn’t that mean something?” It just shows how innocence is destroyed by stupid adults putting ideas into their kids’ minds and not letting their kids think for themselves (i.e. also religious ideals) Not to mention the movie is so incredibly well done: Costume, set design, massive attention to period piece details, music, screenwriting, acting, and the cinematography is phenomenal. Glad I can appreciate this movie even more than I did when I was younger for its cinematic qualities.

I know the first picture is kind of blurry… sorry. But I just went shopping at goodwill and forever 21 to find some bargain stuff. The dress is very colorful and busy with some psychedelic patterns in orange, red, pink, brown, and white with some accents of yellow. I kept seeing girls around my school wearing long summer dresses in which I knew I couldn’t afford a $25 long dress from forever or even kohls. I was really fortunate to stumble across this little treasure at Goodwill for $8. Also the bangles that I got at forever 21 are an assortment of neon blues and yellows with some turquoise green ones thrown in there. Bracelets of any kind are really the only jewelry that can go with this kind of dress because the tie around neck crosses out any necklaces and earrings would actually work if they’re studs or very short dangling. I tried on some feather ones but it was too busy with the patterns of the dress and the fabric tied around the neck. The bangles cost $3.80. Happy shopping!

oh no
losing motivation to workout. HELP ME!!!
I went to my wellness coach today and I lost 18 inches total all around. Like 3 inches in my hips, 2 at my waist, 1 on my arms, 2 on my thighs, etc. All in a week and a half!! lost 2 1/2 lbs and have been replacing my breakfast with a shake supplement (that’s super yummy cookies and cream flavored). I’ve been eating pretty crappy the past week though. I need to stop that. 70% diet, 30% exercise.
Anywho this week I got everything done except ONE thing which I just can’t bring myself to care because it’s only a rough draft worth 10 points: my American lit essay. It’s actually due next tuesday so I’m not worrying about it until I absolutely have to. This weekend will consist of reading all the stories I skipped for american lit final and reading all the chapters I skipped/reviewing lecture notes for Anthropology.
P.s. rrandom note… I’m selling back my school book to amazon and I’m getting a 100 buck gift card to amazon… ummm I will gladly do this every semester now compared to $5 school buybacks. eff that. I’m basically getting 70% back what I paid for each individual book. So stoked.

yoga
was really hard this morning. I’m really not as good at it as I think. And I freaking hate when I sweat because then I slip on my mat and I can’t do down dog position and… it’s just a mess.
Went grocery shopping, now gotta finish my essay, go to Anthropology, then ditch Sociology so I can finish my peer reviews for the online English essays and also begin my rough draft for American Lit… which probably wont happen and I’ll just lose 10 points/work on it tomorrow in class while everyone else is editing theirs.
