Nails, Check! School, Not So Check...

   Well, I was able to have my nails did. :p They are a really pretty pink with white tips. I love it a lot. I slept over at a friend's house and she did them for me. I was pretty excited if not ecstatic. Here's a picture:


   It looks a little bit messy but that's just because we haven't had enough practice. When I get more nail polish, I will practice much more. I can't wait to get more nail polish! Eeks! I just need to save up more money... Maybe I'm being too dramatic over it... I don't know what has come over me that makes me want to do my nails all the time. Weirdness... 
   Let's change the topic from my silliness. I had a yummy breakfast this morning. My favorite actually. I had whole grain French toast. Mmmmm. I enjoyed it a lot with my hazelnut coffee. Too bad the coffee has run out now. At least dad is coming home with some tonight so I won't be deprived. Ok, enough of that...
   I haven't done schoolwork lately. I know what you're thinking. Who does schoolwork in the summer? Well, this person right here. Why? Because I actually really enjoy it. It makes me feel good about myself. It's like solving the mysteries of life all from my very own room. I can be my own Sherlock Holmes. It's quite wonderful, really. 
   Anyways, so I haven't done any schoolwork for at least two weeks and I'm starting to feel a bit guilty. I should be more dedicated than this! I want to actually graduate next year! Well determination is going to kick in. Here are the subjects I need to finish to graduate:

• Algebra 2
• Advanced Mathematics
• Chemistry
• Advanced Biology
• Grade 12 English
• History book 2
• French level 1
• Home Economics
• Art 10
• Personal Finance
• Consumer Math
• Private Law

   Maybe that seems like a lot to you but I'm going to finish that all this year and maybe do a Human Society course if I have time. I also have several classic books to read but I've been working in that over the summer a bit so I don't have to worry about that as much, thankfully. When we go camping, I will spend most of my time doing my book reading. I have about 16 books left to read and I think I can finish at least two during the 3-4 days of camping. Maybe I should relax a bit too considering that it is vacation... Naw! I will be fishing and reading at the same time. Maybe I will do my nails too. :p
   I'm thinking about actually getting my school schedule I made on Microsoft excel printed out. It's just hiding away on my computer. It looks nice too. Do you make schedules for school? You should show me what yours looks like and I'll post what mine looks like. :)
   I should really get back to reading now. I want to at least feel like I've done something productive today.
   Love, Mary

My Long Lost Obsession: Nail Polish

Hello you beautiful person! While I've been procrastinating from my school work, something has come to my attention. I really love doing my nails! For the longest time I didn't even bother because I thought it was sooooo much effort. What has swayed me to start doing my nails again? Nothing other than the fact that my nails have grown out fairly long and healthy that it just brings me joy to stare deeply towards my freshly glossed coat. *sigh* Silly, I know but fun nonetheless. My only dilemma is that I have a limited supply of nail polish so my colors are all just different shades of pink. Today I have concocted a beautiful list display of the shades of nail polish that I'm kind of obsessing over with right now.

Nude colored nail polish is really growing on me. I think I'm in love! It's more noticeable and classy than just plain ol' clear polish and it kind of just exudes the very essence of chic. So yeah, what can I say? I think I'm going to have to get me some of this stuff... pronto.

Now this one is just so pretty. The colors of a dark denim attract me a lot, especially when I only have pink polish. Pretty! *sigh*

Now let me ask you this: who wouldn't want their nails to be the very color of sunshine?? Yellow is just such a happy color. Makes me think of dandelions, sunflowers, lemons, and well sunshine of course!

I do have a thing for pastels. They're just so pretty and feminine. My love for pastel nail polish wouldn't be complete without a pastel green.

 My list here would not be complete without a shade of pink that I don't have. Pink is my favorite color after all. It brings back memories when I used to be obsessed with Double Bubble Gum. Yum!

 So there you have it! There are the five nail polished I kind of really want. BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!
There is a certain pattern that I have been really loving too! Tribal print! :D

Well thank-you for coming. See you at my next post!

Simply Introductions

Hey there, you lovely person reading this! I'm glad you're here! I would like to introduce myself as Mary.  :) To tell you a little bit about myself, I must first say that in person I am really, really weird. Online I think I'm fairly normal but whatever. Who needs normal anyways? It's just not as fun.
 So anyways, I am a student, currently in high school but hopefully in college/university soon! I am homeschooled and I love learning and I mean love. I actually really wish it was fall right now... Autumn. Autumn sounds nicer than fall. Oh sheesh, I feel like I keep on going on bunny trails.
 I love the color pink, I enjoy listening to Celtic harp and ambient electronic tunes, and I have this fashion style mixup consisting of these styles: professional, girly, 50s, vintage, and florals. I love my florals. And scarfs. I have this really pretty scarf; it is floral print. 
 I am currently writing this to you from my desk in my room when I should really be doing algebra or chemistry but I'm not because writing to you is just so much more distracting right now. It's better than earlier. I was kind of sucked into Pinterest all morning looking through college related pins. Oi.  That's another thing about me: I tend to procrastinate... A lot. I've been doing a lot better than I used to but it still lingers and pounces on me every once in a while... Especially when Pinterest is so available. *sigh* 
 So here are some things that I hope to post on this blog:

1. Random updates of my school life, interesting or not
2. Outfits that I have magically put together from my wardrobe that happen to look quite cute
3. School tips
4. A yummy snack recipe every once in a while
And
5. Any silly thing I wish to post because I am the boss! Mwahahaha!!

Ahem.. Anyways, I think that's about it. Now I'm sure I should stop procrastinating and eat a cookie-I mean do my algebra! Hehe

Love, Mary
