nail polish roundup

Packing sucks. I cannot stress this enough. And I know I sound like a whiny drama queen brat when I say that packing is the worst thing in the world, because really there are tons of awful things happening around the world and in people's lives that actually affect them, and I know that. But when I pack, I turn into this snobby snooty whiny miserable brat. And according to this article, I can expect to move EVERY YEAR of my 20s. UGH UGH. I hope you all feel my pain and aren't judging me for being such a whippersnapper ;D

Anyway, all of my clothes are stuffed away, and I stupidly did not think to set aside clothing for the next few days...mostly because I was going to sew new outfits, but of course, I have NO TIME because PACKING SUCKS. Anyway, now I am living in the same clothes until I do find the time to make a new outfit, which is admittedly gross. 

So instead of an outfit post, I've decided to do a nail polish roundup post (see above photo).

Apparently I really like blues, greens and purples. Also, RAINBOW NAILS! my fave :)

I'm not much for prints, but I'm anxious to paint me some polka dotted, striped, and leopard print nails :D

Organizational and other DIYs coming up in the next few days! Stay tuned, folks.

love and right triangles,

april

PS: shoutout to my lil sis who turns 15 today! Crap, I'm getting old.

let's finish this sucker up

The last 3 days of the Thirty Days of Truths. Finally!

And some neon nail insanity to feast your eyes upon.

Day 28 → What if you were pregnant or got someone pregnant, what would you do?

Right now, it would be the hardest decision of my life. I don't think I could go through with it, even though it kills me to say that. But it's a personal decision, no matter what.

Day 29 → Something you hope to change about yourself. And why.

I need to get healthy. Because I have no reason not to.

Day 30 → A letter to yourself, tell yourself EVERYTHING you love about yourself.

Oh brother. Umm.

Dear self,

Hi. You can be conceited at times (I think everyone who has a personal style blog must be at least a little bit conceited. Anyone with a blog must be a little bit conceited for that matter) but there's nothing wrong with that. I think you love yourself the right amount. You are always smiling and cheerful, even when there's very little to be smiling and cheerful about. You like to make people happy. You like happiness. We need more happiness in this world, so good job.

You are intelligent and independent, and you always have been. Good job sticking true to yourself. (For serious, I've been embracing my independence ever since I learned what that word meant in the first grade).

You have a great future ahead of you, so start living in the moment, and stop worrying about the future. Your future will be spectacular, so you might as well have a good time now.

Love,

me.

ombre nails

I attempted to ombre my nails. It mostly worked? ha, it's a lot harder than it looks!

At the very least, it looks tie-dyed!

No outfit to post today, since I spent the morning feeling exhausted, and the evening starting my new job! And at the new job, dress code is the staff teeshirt and comfy pants or shorts, so no outfits worth photographing. Dressing up for an office job is probably the only thing I will miss about my receptionist job.

And PS: the new job is WONDERFUL!

Day 10 of the Thirty Days of Truths

Day 10 → Someone you need to let go, or wish you didn’t know.

Damn these are hard. I..don't know. Hmm.

Probably ex-boyfriends. I mean, none of my past relationships have ever ended awfully, and I'm still friends with all of my exes, but I always have a secret thought in the back of my head saying, "what if he was the one?" Which is SO romantic-comedy-wah-wah-wah, but what can I say?

In particular, there's one guy. We dated for a few months, and he was my first love. And you know what they say, first loves never die! ha. But really, it's not that I want to date him again or anything, I just miss what we had. And we are still great friends. Which sometimes makes it harder to forget the past, but it's definitely better than the alternative.

God, I'm such a girl.

love and right triangles,

april!
