Forever alone on Valentines

Hello all :) If any of you are single and lonely like meee, keep reading because Valentines day could not be forever alone day, it could be "have fun with the ones you love" day!

Ok, so i am alone (again) for Valentines day, and me and my friends are kinda.. well whining about it. being alone isn't too fun :(  BUT instead of going out to a fancy restaurant and getting chocolate.. and roses.. :'( waaaa *single people around the world mourn* you can just hang out with your girls, or guys, and have an awesome time! Me and a bunch of my friends are going to get ice cream sundays and then have a sleepover! It may not be a 5 star restaurant with a tall, dark and handsome man, but its gonna keep me happy on National Forever Alone Day. So keep your chin up, and enjoy time with friends and family! the people who love you <3 

 

Hahaha ^^ im sorry i had to :P

Again ^^ i had to :P

HAAHAHA i need to stop i'm getting depressed

Heres some more things to do on Valentines day:

Order a pizza. Alone with pizza is better than alone alone. (Also, I mean, that’s a whole. entire. pizza that you don’t have to share with anyone but you, yourself, and you.)

One word. NETFLIX. Seriously just have a marathon of your favorite show and eat ice cream. 

Stalk a hot guy on Facebook. 

Buy as much half-priced candy as you can on February 15th and get fat.

Sleep the entire day and ignore responsibilities and people. Especially people.

Call an ex and tell him he sucks. i mean why not it sounds fulfilling. 

Buy something for yourself! you probably deserve it ;)

Oh and do your makeup because then you will look pretty while you sit at home alone.

Music

 Hello all :) today i'm going to talk about music <3

I seriously am addicted to music.. it's not even good anymore! If i go one day without it i go insane. 
Music is like art to me. I can find different meanings to just about every song. The song that i have stuck in my head right now (and all morning!) is called "Biting down" by Lorde, newly famous for her hit song "Royals" bashing celebrities and musicians whose lyrics have nothing to do with each other. Everyone is singing about sex and drugs like it's nothing. IT IS something!! 13 year olds should not be saying "Well if that celebrity does it why cant i??" Lorde is my role model. Although she really likes Taylor Swift, she talks about her being too perfect, and i agree. I love Taylor but she is so skinny it's not even healthy anymore. Teenage girls are already self conscious about weight, and appearance. 
Not only are Lordes words wise, but her lyrics are mysterious and captivating! (wow i'm using big words.. moving up in the world :P) Like from her song Biting down "Breathed so deep i almost drowned" Think about it. It's so interesting i love the way she puts two and two together. 
In her song "Tennis court" she says "Don't you think that its boring how people talk? Making smart with their words again, well i'm bored." And then in her song "A world alone she says "Let them talk."
I also have a new love for Lana Del Rey! Shes so inspirational cause she doesnt take crap from anyone. She's a strong independent woman with courage, and a way with words! 

i once had dreams of becoming a beautiful poet, but upon an unfortunate series of events saw those dreams dashed and divided like a million stars in the night sky that I wished on over and over again, sparkling and broken. -lana del rey

I also love  The Script, Imagine Dragons, Bastile, The Neighborhood, Ed sheeran, One Direction, Arctic Monkeys, Two Door Cinema Club, Mumford and Sons, The Lumineers, Passenger, Of Monsters and Men, and pretty much anything Indie!

Hello all :) I literally havent posted in forever but i think i should start up again, what do you think?

Well a lot as happened. I totally came out of my box and i'm so much louder and crzier than i already was! Ok so ive experimented with my hair color a lot in 2013, going from reds to browns and other colors, but i find that an auburn color looks best on me! *yayy* Ive established who my real friends are (the ones who have stood by me the whole time) Ive found a love for writing and blogging and making up weird stories in my head that would never come true, but putting them down on paper make me feel that maybe, in my wildest dreams, they might come true.
The last posts ive made have gotten pretty popular ;) *happy dance* so ive decided to come back to the blogging world with my ideas, DIY's, and me.. just blurting out random stuff that im not sure will ever get read. So get ready people you're going to be hearing a lot more from me, Midge :P (or Donna i dont really care)

Top five things girls hate when texting guys

Iv'e always wanted to tell guys how i feel about their texting habits but i'm not sure how... so if your reading this remember everything I say! Girls are real about these things.

Top five things girls hate when texting guys:

1. When guys reply with one word. I mean seriously! How are we (as women) supposed to keep up a conversation with "yep" or "haha"?
2. When guys reply 20 minutes later. I mean how would you feel if we were having a one on one conversation and i left for 20 minutes and then came back like nothing happened?
3. When guys don't use any smiley faces or exclamation marks. When guys do that to girls they think your mad, or not interested. So always add extra smiles and haha's!
4. When guys keep saying that awkward "Yep... "  "Ok" conversations. If it ever gets awkward ask questions! Girls love when guys ask random, or thoughtful questions. It makes us feel like you really want to know whats going on :P And its 10x less awkward. 
5. When guys keep up a conversation that should have ended 20 minutes ago. Seriously! move on my friend! If the conversation continues on its own, great! But don't continue it just to have a conversation. When all else fails go to number four ^^^

Now that iv'e gone over what we hate, i'll go over what we love!

Top five things girls love when texting guys:

1. When guys send winky faces. I honestly think winky faces are adorable! It makes me laugh!
2. When guys stick up for you. If a guy sticks up for you in any way just really appreciate them. They obviously care about you enough to do that, so show them kindness!
3. When your crush texts you first. Whenever a guy (or a crush) sends you a text first, you know they were thinking about you ;) i mean how sweet is that!
4. When a guy is sneak texting you. When a guy sneak txts you, you know he loves you cause their willing to get caught just to text you. <3 Then sneak text them so they know you do it too.
5. When a guy stops playing video games to text you back. If a guy ever does that to you... MARRY HIM! He obviously cares about you more than the game (and thats a huge thing for guys) And i think thats sooo adorable.

                             For my best friend Daniel <3

Summer/Winter Hair Inspiration

Summer/Winter Hair Inspiration

If you're wondering what to do with your hair this summer, or winter, here is some links, tips, and pictures to help you all figure out your summer hair styles!

Braids
As you probably know, braids are really in style right now. You've got everything from the normal, simple braid, all the way to the water fall braid. Hopefully here is some good pictures and links:


Fishtail Braid:

 A quick How-to video that I thought explained it fairly simply!

Loosen it up to give it a messier look!

Waterfall braid:

I have never done this braid so hopefully this works for you! It looks like a very pretty tutorial! But my tip is you learn how to french braid! :)

Curl your hair after you've done the braid.

Other braids:

• English Braid (just your simple, everyday braid!!)
• French Braid
• Dutch Braid
• Rope Braid (I personally like this one cuz its fast)

Buns

For those who live in the horrible, sticky heat, I suggest buns! They're cute and out of the way for a fresh, cool look.

The Messy Bun

As you can see in the picture, the hair is slopily tied up in a loose bun on top of the head. Most of the time, people tease their hair to make it have more volume, and then top off the look with a cute headband or head scarf.

The Ballerina Bun

Click this link for awesome tips and how-tos for ballerina buns! I love it!

Beach Hair

Beach hair is practically anything from wringlets to buns to pony tails. The most popular version of Beah Hair though, is (of course) beach waves. There are soo many ways to do this... like putting your hair in a bun over night, or a braid over night. But this is my favorite:

Beach waves

I don't think most people need a video tutorial for this. So, here are some tips and the way I make my hair have beachy-looking waves

•  Dry your hair completely with a blow dryer, giving it some fullness
• Take a spray bottle with water in it, and just slightly dampen your hair all the way through
• Take some mousse and rub it through your hair
• Scrunch your hair
• As you scrunch, you can add some hair spray, so it will keep the beachy look

Okay everyone, hope this helped you. Comment if you have any questions or suggestions!

Kool-Aid Hair Dye

Kool-Aid Hair Dye

How to dye your hair with Kool-aid? Yeah that’s right. The best thing about it is that it’s not permanent! Lasts for about two weeks.  All you need is two or more packets of your color choice, a small bowl or two (depending on how many colors you're planning on doing), water, and some of your everyday conditioner! This is super simple. BUT let me just say that this works very well with blondes. Sort of hard to do on dark hair. Try bleaching it if you have dark hair (I know bleaching isn't quite non-permanent, I'm sorry all you dark brunettes :(....)

What you'll need:

•  good-sized paint brush (for streaks of color)
•  2 or more packets of unsweetened Kool-Aid (more if you're doing many streaks or your whole hair)
•  small bowls for each color
•  conditioner
•  plastic wrap and/or tin foil (plastic wrap is more comfy to sleep on. I know from experience...)
•  disposable plastic gloves

Warnings:

•  This stains pretty much everything from clothing to skin to white counter tops. put down some newspaper!
•  The dryer and more brittle hair will keep in the color the longest
• Sometimes, the red Kool-Aid can be permanent (from what I’ve heard online)
• Can last longer than two weeks (as did mine)

 THE STEPS:

(Update: If you have blonde hair, add some orange streaks to the second layer of hair. I've done it and it looks really pretty and cool!)

STEP ONE: (If you are dying your whole head, I suggest about five packets, although you might need more or less considering whether or not you have long or short hair. For a streak, I’d say two or three packets would be just perfect!) Put the powder into a smallish bowl.

STEP TWO: Put a few drops of water in - NOT TOO MUCH. I can't stress this enough. You don't want your dye to be watery! Just make it a bit pasty.

 STEP THREE: Add about a palm size amount of conditioner or more if you feel the need. (if you’re doing your whole head, you should do more.) Mix everything with a paint brush.

STEP FOUR: If you're doing a streak, take a piece of hair, paint your Kool-Aid paste onto the strand. Be VERY careful not to get it on any other hair that you don't want colored (if this happens, wash your hair immediately). To dye your whole head, massage the color into your hair (be careful of getting it on your skin because this STAINS)

STEP FIVE: Wrap the wet, Kool-Aided strand of hair in plastic wrap or tin foil. If you're doing all of your hair, wrap your whole head/hair tightly in plastic wrap, making sure nothing is leaking. Sleep on it! If I were you, sleep on an old pillow with an old pillow case on, just in case some of the dye seeps out.

 WAKE UP: Take the tinfoil and plastic wrap out of your head and take a shower. For the first wash, don't shampoo or condition.

Enjoy your newly Kool-aid dyed hair :) Tell me how it works out! Here's a color chart for Kool-Aid:

The Wonders of Clear Nail Polish

The Wonders of Clear Nail Polish

Clear nail polish isn't JUST for nails anymore! I've done some research and I came up with some interesting and helpful information. Not only can you make your nails have a pretty and glossy sheen, but you can make jewelry last longer, protect the ends of your shoe laces, and make the tops of your keys sparkly!

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri
FAST DRY NAIL COLOR

 •How to make jewelry last longer: I would suggest doing this to some of your rings that tend to tarnish or change color. Exposure to water is one of the reasons why rings and necklaces do that. And don't you hate how some of those inexpensive rings change your finger green or yellow? Well, take those rings that change the color of your finger, and paint a coating of clear nail polish around it. The will help protect it from water as well. Just remember to re-apply it every once in a great while because it can start to wear away.

•Make almost anything glittery: A while ago, I saw a tutorial on how to make the top of a key sparkly! I loved the idea. Paint glue on the key, add glitter, and then paint with a few coats of nail polish. Just like that! Think of all the possibilities.... glittery phone and iPod cases, glittery homemade jewelry, switch plates, rims of eye glasses, headbands and so much more!

•Prevent unraveling shoelaces: Did the end of the of lace into the polish and let it dry! It’s waterproof and very resistant.

•Repairs: If you really want a screw or nail to stay, add a dab of nail polish before you put it in... That always works! Works well when you're fixing glasses screws as well. Also, if you have a small, minor chip in your wood flooring, then you can paint over it to avoid water or any fluids from seeping in. If you have a rip in a window shade or screen, paint on some polish to stop it from getting any bigger. If you have a crack in your windshield and are worried it might starts getting bigger, put nail polish over the crack until you can go get it fixed.

•Sealing envelopes: I'm pretty sure most people hate the taste of sealing an envelope. Instead, put a few dabs of polish to keep it glued!

There are actually even more things that clear nail polish can do like threading string through small needles, securing buttons, and avoiding rust stains. Hope everyone has fun using these tips!

Hair Care

Today I'm going to talk about HAIR!

Ahhh i love hair so much! I always want to do my hair! My favorite way to wear it is straight... boring?  I don't know, i like it. But if its straight i usually do some cool braid to spice it up. My hair isn't very long so i cant do everything with it but I'm growing it out. The best thing to do when growing your hair out is sorta like a diet for you hair. the trick is to not straighten, curl, or blow dry for a month or two. I KNOW THAT'S CRAZY! (some girls do the whole summer) And its really hard! Its like a food diet, but the blow dryer and curling iron are donuts and soda... but it really does help! Also don't take a shower everyday, although you may think that clean hair grows quicker. It doesn't. It washes away all the good oils that your hair needs. Take a shower every other day or something like that, and always wash you hair in hot water. Hot water opens your pours and lets the hair grow.

Straightening: I always straighten my hair! And lately Ive been getting split ends and thick, frizzy hair. :( So I'm trying new things! I think the best thing i got was Pantene Anti Breakage conditioner. It has worked wonders for my hair! Also from Pantene they have shampoo and conditioner that make you hair straight and curly until your next wash! (How cool is that? I recommend the straight one for people who straighten their all the time).

I also got 2 in one moisturizing shampoo and conditioner from Vo5.

Straight hair :p

                            

Curling: I don't curl my hair that often because i have naturally curly hair. Most girls i know, who have curly hair, get out of the shower and brush it! Nooooo! Don't do that! It will dry frizzy and the curls will be brushed out! :( After you condition get out of the shower and brush it, then hop back in the shower and rinse it without touching it or running your hands through it. Just stand under the shower head for a while. And do NOT brush it when you get back out. Then wait about 10 minutes and put some mousse or hair gel in it and you have the perfect curls!

Never Forget

Hey everyone! this is going to be kind of short today. I just want to pay my respects to all the people that had a loved one die in the 9/11 plane crash. I also wanna say thank you to all the people who helped with medical issues, fire fighters who gave their lives to help, and ambulance drivers who brought people to the hospital, including my mom who helped take blood for the rest of the survivors.

Perks of being a wallflower

So today i am going to talk a little bit about the new movie "perks of being a wallflower". Ahh! who else is excited for this movie to come out? It has such a good message attached about friendship, love, and popularity. :P 

seriously people! being popular isn't all its cracked up to be. you always have to impress someone, your "so and so" friends cause the most drama in your life, and wouldent you rather hang out with someone you like than with someone who gives you a high standard with other people? 
Im not that popular but i have amazing friends that i wouldent give up for being popular and having friends that bring me down, lie to me, and i get in fights with. i have NEVER gotten into a fight with my friends! Its crazy i know...

So im really excited about this new movie! maybe some people will realize how important it is to just live life at the bottom, not constantly reaching up to the top.

A message from midge: fashion

My name is Donna, or you may know me as Midge. Welcome to my blog! I am 14 and I Love to write! At the moment i am writing a book and it's going really well. My blog is going to be about any and every subject, weather its the latest fashion, travel, or everyday life! I hope you enjoy! <3

 My first Subject is going to be on fashion! I Love fashion, and my FAV store is Forever 21. I love the unique fashion styles they have! You have to go all out or dont go at all! I have a hard time finding clothes for myself because i like casual but cute, but you can get both there! its my all time favorite store! 
I find that walking around a store and saying "There's nothing good for me here" and leaving is a bad idea :P cause that's usually what i do! I find that looking through each shelf and picking out specific colors or themes helps me find clothes that will stick with me for a while. 
This website has adorable ideas, pictures of sweaters and other clothes for fall and winter! If you have to be cold for a while you might as well look cute!
