Bang Gang

The trend for a dramatic hair change this year is to get bangs. Ever since our dearest Michelle O' stepped on the 2013 scene with her new 'do, bangs begin popping up left and right. I am NOT saying we should all give thanks to Mich (pronounced meesh) for giving us an idea of what to do with our hair if we don't feel like dying it or chopping off all 10 inches. I for one was contemplating bangs for 2013, you know , new year, new 'do. Right after this thought the lovely Courtne Smith ( aka Queen Shmink) showed up on her blog in bangs, this was all before the new year rang in.

Now that it is way past the new year, I still find myself contemplating whether or not to join the 'Bang Gang'. This may just be my personal opinion, but getting bangs brings on a lot of responsibility other than their maintenance. I've had bangs, I want bangs, but bangs come with a personality that I just don't know if I'm 100% ready for. When I think bangs I think of a chic little red lipped, all black wearing goddess. I feel they give me a serious look, instead of the youthful one most aim for. 

Here's my Bang Gang Inspi, and also my spirit animals.

Kourtney, Zooey, Lauren, Courtne & Nicole

Every time I come across a picture of them I instantly want to run to the bathroom and chop my own bangs, but decide not to because bangs take thought. Am I overreacting?

Ramblings...

One of my biggest flaws is how fast I get turned off by something. This has been more prevalent lately. You see, I do this thing where I'm absolutely obsessed with something, but the minute a bunch of people are also claiming to be obsessed with it I begin to dislike it. This doesn't just happen with things like clothes or my favorite music artists, it happens with things that can actually help me in life. Horrible right? 

I just feel that everything in the world today is overly saturated. Everyone loves BEYONCE, everyone wants to start a blog, everyone wants to be an entrepreneur , I can go on and on. But you see where I'm coming from right? I just feel that as soon as I have some big idea or find something that I feel makes me me, I scroll down my insta and everyone else is me as well. 

During my second semester of living out my dream I joined the Culture Club at my school. It was a book club where we got together to just hangout. It was really great and I met some great people! The book we read was Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger. In the first half of the book Franny says this one line that I just completely related to when I was reading it, and still do :

I know I shouldn't let the "everyone" factor impede my self growth, but it does get annoying. Anyways....

Angry B-word

I would tell you why I haven't posted in a long time, but that just isn't the point today. The point is, I've been angry lately, like the most angry bitch ever. Of course I don't bust all my anger out at once, that would only bring forth another world war, but you know what I do...hold it in. This used to be a task that I conquered with no problems, but it's slowly wearing me down. I think the crazier part is how I have been having the time of my life and so many great opportunities given to me lately, so I shouldn't be angry at all, but I am.

I've come to the conclusion that I am angry because I am a semi-perfectionist.
I want everything to be perfect, but I'll half ass my way to it.
But if I'm going to be perfect, I want everything and everyone around me to be perfect as well.
And life just doesn't work out that way.

I think what makes me most angry is the fact that I can't control a good portion of what is wrong in my life. And trust me I have already gotten a grip on the other situations and happenings.


So I guess you're wondering what I am going to do about all of my anger. Well, I am honestly working on it.
