Makeovers!

Today I was bored so I asked my sister Dahlia if I could give her a manicure. Then I got the idea to do hair, makeup, and nails! So I got a small glass bowl and filled it with warm water, sprinkled so sandalwood powder in it, and she soaked her hands in the water while I curled her hair. Her hair looked ah-mazing! After that I clipped D's nails, painted them with "Mochacino" brown and voila! While her nails dried I did her makeup. I did a look called Pink Romance from Juicystar07. I used different shades of pink, and a little bit of brown. For blush I did a light coating of bright pink. For lips I used clinique lipstick in"Guava Stain". It's a sort of dark pink. Then I covered it with Smackers pink gloss. Beautiful. After that Jemma got interested in my little makeover business so I did her too. Her hair is way harder to curl than D's because it's so straight and silky. So her curls looked different. They weren't tight, round curls like D's. They were more open and "s" shaped. I did her nails in "Charming Rose Creme" by NYC and I used a gold nail art pen to do french manicure tips on her thumbs. For makeup she wanted a tan base with purple. I did that perfectly! Yay! I used the same blush on her as I used for D but I did it more lightly. For lips I didn't use lipstick. I used a clear "Expressions" lip gloss. Wow, I should be a makeup artist when I grow up!!! Hahaha wow I love doing makeovers!

Umm posting again today....

Told you I'd post again today! I really need the boost. My Valentine's Day poll ends in one hour so vote vote vote. I decided not to do poll results any more because it seem kind of boring... What do you guys think?? Is it boring?? Any way if you guys think it's not interesting I'll just not do a post on the results because that's fine with me. So today I played wii soooo much!! I played wii play and did the fitness testing on wii sports. Apparently I'm 68. I got all of my homework done today, plus I brushed the dog, so tomorrow I can do whatever I want. For dessert, my mom made "Jiggle Pie" which is a kind of pie cake thingy with preztel on the bottom, a layer of cream, so jello with strawberries in it, more cream, and chocolate shavings on top. The cream has some chocolate swirled in with it I think. It sounds really yummy! We saw it on a cooking last weekend so my mom said she would make it this weekend. I can't wait to try it! Also she maded "Italian Wedding Soup" and that has these tiny, little meatballs in it. Okay I know this is random but it is FREEZING outside! Yesterday, when I walked outside in the morning my eyes teared up and my toes felt like I had stepped into fire! The wind intensified the chillyness. Ugh, I could so handle being back in India right now!! I say that every year we ditch MA in the winter time and head to someplace warm like Florida, Hawaii, India... yeah woop woop :)

What's been happening

Hey guys! So sorry! I said in my last post that i would try to post once a day but that's not working out :( I've been really busy and by the time i have time to go on the computer i'm pooped from my long, hard day. Well let's see... It's the new term at at school. Instead of having gym and health I have Technology Engineering. Right now we are working on making bridges. We are making them out of tooth picks, cardboard, glue, and string. I'm going to make a suspension bridge with trusses along the sides and the bottom. It's going to have three towers and there will be trusses up that too. I'm working on perfecting my clean draft of the bridge. Then I can do my final draft and start building! We read the Outsiders in LA class. It was really good and sad. On Monday and Tuesday we'll watch the movie in class. Last night I went to go see Avatar with two friends (one of them was Jess if you've read her blog...?). The movie was really really really good! I had no idea what it was about from the trailer but everybody was saying that it was awesome. It was in 3D which i normally don't like but this was fine. My friend Heidi saw it twice! Anyway, I love seeing movies on friday!! Next I want to see Dear John. Has anybody seen it?! How is it?! I might post again today, I'll have to see how that works out. I need to make up for the lost posts from the past few days. I have to do a couple homeworks and then brush the doggy and then I'll play wii, kick back, and relax. And guess what will get pumped up for all this?? Waffles!!!!! Yay my fave!

Hey peeps whoever you are! Nothing much happened with me today... The new term started on Monday. Instead of having health and gym every other day I now have Technology Engineering. We are going to build a bridge and a solar car in that class. I'm not very good at engineering and stuff like that so i don't know how i'm going to do in the class. And I have it every day which sorta stinks. My friend Jess is in that class too but she has it a different period than me. I can't wait until fourth term when I have art every day! On Friday night me and a couple other friends are gonna go see Avatar! I'm not really sure what it's about but a lot of people say it's really good. Plus, I just want to see a movie and that looks like the only decent thing playing. I love Friday night movies! If you haven't read Jess' blog I'll have to inform you that me and her are having a competion to see who can post the most this year. I'm pretty sure she's beating me though. She posted, like, every day while I was away and I couldn't post because I didn't have internet for a while. Ugh so I really got to work hard on this posting thing. How bout a post a day!! Yeah... well i'll have to see how that works out. Bye!

Wii, powerpoint, dance, and poll results

Today we set up our Wii and played our games! Of course it came with Wii Sports and we also got Wii Play. I played it sooooo much but then i had to do my homework so yeah... I finished my powerpoint on India. I just need to have it edited and then I can bring it in to school. Yesterday at dance we saw our recital costume. We are doing our dance to Fun House by P!nk. Our costumes are these short shorts that are plaid and different colors. Then there's a black leotard and suspenders sort of. We could choose from pink, green, and blue costumes. I chose pink of course :) Oh yeah, i saw Clueless with Brittany Murphy in it and it's really good!!

So I had a poll "Who's your Valentine?" and the winner was.......... your crush!!!!! Hahahahahaha wow... that got three votes. Your spouse and your dog tied for second with two votes each. Your bffl got one vote. Eight people voted in all. I'll come up with a new poll soon!! :)

Music and Invictus

Hey guys! So my mom has these ten dollar itunes gift cards and if i give her ten bucks i get a card so i can buy music. I got one and then I found out that the glee season 2 album costs thirteen bucks so i got my hands on another card and bought the track! I love the songs on it! I recommend it to any glee lovers! I also bought another song so that is 18 songs i've bought so far! Wowzers! I want to buy Meet me Halfway by the Black Eyed Peas. Should I?

Today at school we saw Invictus! It's about Nelson Mandela and how he supported South Africa's national rugby team. He was trying to mend the scars of the past and unite the country because of the racial issues. The movie was really good, I thought. It was sad too. And it had Matt Damon in it! Bonus! But afterwards we had to write a six paragraph essay on the movie and the poem Invictus. Here's the poem "Invictus" by William Ernest Henley:

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeoning of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms the Horrors of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

Dance recital!!

So I just got home from ballet and guess what?! I saw my ballet costume and it's gorgeous! It's this black leotard and tutu with circus colored dots on it!!! In the recital my class are going to be "jugglers". We are going to hold these half circle stick things and also one ball. And we are going to be with a partner (my partner's the same as last year yay!!) and will be acting for the first bit, pretending to drop the balls and stuff. Also I'm out center again!!! In my other class (hip hop) I haven't seen my costume yet and I don't know what we are in the recital but we started our dance. It's to Fun House by P!nk!!! I'm so excited for this year's recital!!!!
BTW I posted some india pics on my picture blog soooooooo check it out!!!

All work and no play makes Johnny a dull boy... Liking that saying more and more every second...

So I've been doing work from about 10:00 to the time it is now... 5:20 PM. So I finished three sections of math and a couple days of french and now I'm working on some LA stuff. I took a break at noon to go on a walk with my mom and dog. She got really wet from all the snow plus her paws were all muddy too. So I ran her around in the yard to get the mud away. That left me with the issue of soaking wet, hairy paws. So I put her on a towel, dragged it onto the middle of the floor and pulled up the space heater. She laid there for about ten minutes, me shifting her every couple of minutes. You should have seen her face-utterly shocked that I would dry her off like that. She's used to the blow drier... But I think the space heater worked like a charm!

Tomorrow is the last day I have to finish my work. I don't think we'll set up the Wii this weekend cuz my dad is going to work and me and my sister still have a ton to do. I have to write intros and conclusions for four more essays, do an open response on "The Outsiders" and make a slide show of my trip for World Geography. The World Geography doesn't seem too bad though. Well, I should probably go work on some LA for a bit longer... Bye!
