HYPE!

What's the HYPE! you ask? To quote from the website "HYPE is a new podcast from Andrew Sims and Ben Schoen where they discuss what’s receiving hype in the world right now.  Simple as that!  The show is produced and recorded differently than their other podcasts.  This show is recorded in one room and does not undergo any editing!"
Its also my new FAVORITE podcast! Its one of the most hilarious things since like ever! Its bi-weekly right now but hopefully going to weekly soon! :) the guys (Andrew and Ben) talk about EVERYTHING! From The Beibs to Lady Gaga. From The Superbowl to the Oscars. And let us not forget the iPad love and the youtube crap! I have to say if thete was ever a more perfect thing to do late on a Sunday Night with school the next morning listening to HYPE! is very high up there.

Well I got some scholar's bowl + ACT studying to do!

Never Say Never

Macy Michelle & Meghan Elizabeth Aug 22, 2010

So me and this girl right here ^ (My bestest friend in the WHOLE wind world) went and saw

IT WAS AMAZING!

I'm now digging on the Biebs pretty bad now.

I mean with pictures like this? It's hard not to :)

A little Bieber fever outfit. But let's keep this classy, not trashy.
"Now I'm really glad that I speak French, because, let's face it, girls dig it when a guy speaks French. They call it the language of love, and that ain't no coincidence. Plus, I love my French fans! Très jolie!" - Justin Bieber

I love Spring!

Spring is the absoulte greatest time of the year! For some people, its the fact that everything is in bloom (personally I hate it, it gives me horrible allergies) For others, its the fact it's getting bloody warm again (Thank the good Lord!) but for me? It has to be the fashion! Spring is perfect. You get bright, cheery, preppy colors without looking lost and you can still wear jeans without burning to death. What do I love this spring? Well lets see...

Sperry Topsiders in Bahama Pink

I LOVE these shoes. I want need these shoes. They're the perfect prep! Plaid and boat shoes! :)

Let's take this month by month
First March:

Next comes April:

And Following That: May

Really, that about wraps up springtime in good ol' Alabama. But while it's here, it's pretty dang nice. Soon though summer will follow.

Until then,

Oh how I love

Grad Exam Week! As a freshman, I hated it because it meant sitting in the gym for 5 hours at a time. Then last year, as a sophomore, I had to take these said exams but this year, as a junior, it's heaven! Due to the fact that the juniors and seniors get to come in late and we have the regional basketball game Thursday! Go Lady Patriots! Well I guess I might get ready now.

"A southern girl is a girl who knows full and well that she can open a door for herself but prefers for the gentleman to do it because it demonstrates a sense of respect. After all, every girl wants to be treated like a princess. She knows how to make sweet tea and grits while telling you everything about any football team in the SEC. She picks her battles and fights with the heart of a pit-bull while still maintaining grace and elegance. Her mystique is that of a soft-spoken, mild-mannered southern belle who could direct an army, loves her momma, and will always be daddy's little girl."

A Personal Statement

Smile, you never know who's watching! Don't let others cause you tears but don't be afraid to let them see you cry because tears prove how strong you are. Believe in yourself and when you dont lean on someone who does. When in doubt, dance it out! If all else fails, just suck it up and drive on. Find the people you can't let go of and dont ever let them get out of sight. Tell someone you love them- people dont hear it enough. Judge yourself before judging others. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Remember that you are loved and it will get better just give it time. Laughter is truely the best medicine. Talk like you mean it and never ever regret what you say or do because if you open your mouth you mean what you say even if you think you really dont. When all is said is done, you will be happy. Stress- but dont panic about the stress- its natural. All else fails just sleep it off and dream for the best.

Its A Southern Life

It all started in Fashion Class... I was bored and went over to the magazine rack and picked up a couple of home magazines and began flipping. The ideas became to grow and I started to imagine my perfect dream house.
SO without further rambling, let me you welcome you to my humble abode.
 

My Beautiful Plantation. I'm a true southern belle and can not imagine living in a dream house that didn't have three stories and a wrap-around porch. I've always been more of a brick person but I could easily handle living in this beauty.

This would be the view from the front porch before you enter the home where you would find....


The Foyer

 A Grand staircase with classic marble floors. On the right you would find....



The Parlor

Used only for company, formal parties and the big Christmas tree.


The Dining Room

Off on the left of the Foyer, you would find the dining room. Perfect for the family Christmas Dinner, Office Parties and always to be used for dinner. But never for breakfast or lunch.



The Kitchen

The Kitchen. It will be one of the favorite room in the house. The boys will run through, after dropping off their sport clothing in the mud room,  just to grab the fresh baked cookies. Then my little girl will come through to sit and help "Mummy" with dinner by sitting on one of those stools and telling me all about her day.

Sun Porch

This shall be my room. It will be where the girls and I sit to chat over a cup of fresh lemonade or sweet tea. It will also be the place where I get do my sewing and designing when I have the free time.

Also off the kitchen leading to the garage would be:


The Mud Room

This is a room that would be worth doing laundry in.

The Study

On the hall going from the parlor you will find this area. This shall be my husband's domain. Plans say I'll marry a doctor, lawyer or CEO. Something that will require a big office when he works long evenings. Those fabulous sofas you see? They will be for important clients that just must come by the house and the place our kids will be the most afraid off for it will be the only place they go when Daddy must intervene in punishment.

On down and around the corner, you will find a closed door. Very very few people will ever enter this domain and what is this place you ask?

The Master Bedroom

The design I love. The colors, not so much. I would have to add some yellow in there and a more teal to the blue but besides that, this place would be a heaven on earth.



The Master Bathroom

The floors are to die for and thanks to the heating tiles underneath your feet will never be cold. The bathtub is beautiful but odds say I'll probably not get to use it as much as I like what with children and a wonderful career as a doctor.



The Closet.

The most important room in the house. It will hold all my world finds and impulse buys. Oh and maybe my husband will have a little bit of space.

Finally, we will make our way upstairs.
Coming upstairs

If you take the left you will find two rooms.

Family Room

A big mismatch of different furniture and a roaring fireplace will have everyone coming to this room. It will be where we all spend our Saturdays when not attending the Alabama games. It will also be home to family movies nights on Sundays before bed.

Next to that one would find the only room to actually be also be on the 3rd floor.


The Library

 This picture is obviously taken from the 3rd floor balcony but as you can tell, this room will hold tons and tons of books. From the leather copy of Gray's Anatomy and the volumes of Jane Austen and Shakespeare but also the children's books and a whole section devoted to the works of Harry Potter.

Circling back around to the other side of the stairs, one would come upon the bedrooms.

First you'd come to one of the guest rooms:


Mother and Daddy's Room

This room would be only for the time when Momma and Daddy came to visit or when the in-laws came to town. Any other over-night guest would live in


Guest Room

A one of a kind vacation spot.

Next on the list would be:

Emmett James' Room

My Little Man. This would be his room. It would have a door leading out to the wrap-around balcony and he would have a desk in the same wood as his bed. His closet would be a full walk-in but he wouldn't care as Momma dresses him in khakis, plaid shorts and Polo's daily.

Following that would be:


Boy's Bathroom

The Bathroom would be just fun and happy. And this sink is just to die for.

Girl's Bathroom

This would be the perfect place for my little girl to get ready for the day. The bathtub is so cute and would be perfect for a bubble bath after a long day.


Addison Marie's Room

The perfect room for the perfect little girl. Addi would of course would only have one bed - a big full one-
but it would have this color scheme. And never, ever would she be allowed to paint over those beautiful hand-painted flowers.



Addi's Closet

Like Mother Like Daughter.


The Back Porch

Every one of the upstairs bedrooms would have a door leading out to this beautiful porch. A perfect place to look out and enjoy the sunset on the water.


Its fun to dream. One day, hopefully this will be real.

i might just need to pull a LiLo and check myself Into Rehab

I might have a little obsession going on right now between me and Mr. Blogger Dashboard. He's real lovely...always leaving me with new things to read that are quite adorable.
It was ok when I had just my computer and only checked every once in a while when facebook got boring but now since i've gotten my new love, my ipod, I find myself checking every time i have wi-fi....before school, in classes doing homework, while surfing the web.... yeah I might need help..... oh well, I'm happy as long as my beautiful blogging dears just keep blogging their hearts out! Cheers dearies!

I wanna go to my other home which is also where I want to spend my summer (& birthday) this yeat as I am planning on applying to the Rural Health Program at UA - a 5 week pre-pre-med summer program. I really want to get it. Like super bad. I'd cry if I dont. Anyways, I think thats all I have for ramplings tonight. Roll Tide Cubcats :)
