So one of my favorite things to watch is this video, in which Miranda July poses and acts really cool. I tried to make my own version, but my editing skills are really pathetic and I couldn't cut anything properly the way hers consists of individual frames, so mine is just basically consecutive poses all in one frame! It's not as good as hers, but it's still kinda cool, and my outfit looks nice. When I was making the video, I thought I looked really cool and uber suave. I now realize that I move super awkwardly and that my body language translates as confused and uncomfortable, which is moderately embarrassing. In reality though, I thought I was being that cool type of awkward that is super awkward, yet cool. Hopefully that's what I achieved.
Also, if you're totally digging that awesome flower crown I'm wearing, BEHOLD! I will soon be opening an etsy store and selling tons of pretty crowns and other cool stuff that is both comfortable and stylin'. What you see in the video is kind of what my style has been like recently. I thrifted that shirt, and then I cut the fabric under the collar so that it looks all cool. I'm probably going to sew a patch or something onto the front. I made a really cool one that says PUNX in purple on some pretty, flowery fabric. I've just been seeing PUNX everywhere on etsy when I search feminist/riot grrrl stuff. I don't really know what it means, I'm assuming it's just a cool way to say PUNKS/PUNK, or perhaps a reference to Hunx and His Punx, hence, one of my favorite bands. Either way, I think it looks awesome, and hopefully it doesn't mean something really weird like avid farter or anything.
ALSO, big big news!! I bought a jacket on Etsy yesterday! It's literally so amazing. All you Riot Grrrl lovers and enthusiasts are going to die and probably cry, because that's what I did when I first saw the jacket. I want to keep the jacket a surprise, so I'm not going to tell you anything other than it's a leather (pleather, actually. wahoo!) jacket. The lady (she was actually a grrrl who was so amazing and cool and I wish I knew her in real life because I think we would be good friends and she is 21 and can legally drink, which is super impressive!) who sold it to me was beyond nice and helpful, so go checkout her awesome store here!
And for the third also, I will hopefully have a lot more outfit posts soon. The problem is that I really only like making outfit posts of things I've actually worn, rather than just dressing up for a photo shoot, and since it's summer and I'm lazy, I usually either don't get out of my pajamas, or I forget to take pictures of my outfits when I'm out with friends or when I just happen to be in clothes other than the ones I sleep in. I'm hanging out with my amazing friend Natalie tomorrow though who has an amazing iPHONE, so hopefully she can snap some photos of me!
One last thing! I made a youtube channel where I will probably post cool shit, so if you want to subscribe feel free! CLICK.

animals are people too!
I've noticed I've been getting fatter lately. This isn't to say that I'm upset about it/think I'm fat, it just means, "yo, i've been getting fatter lately" hence, "yo, i'm gaining weight."
I honestly don't give a darn. This is a girl who likes to eat and will eat now and for eternity! As long as I'm healthy and happy life is fine.
Also, I'm trying to clean up mah profanity via the blog, because I applied for that Teen Vogue blog thing, and I had all the right requirements, other than I wrote words such as SHIT FUCK BITCH HOEBAG BUTT FACE TWAT DICK HEAD and stuff like that, which I suppose could POTENTIALLY go against their rule of "no profanity in blogs." Then again, if they don't want me for what my blog is then I don't want them either! So FUCK IT. I'll swear if I want to via virtual pixels that represent letters! I ain't changin' fer anyone.
Been getting intensely obsessed with environmental politics lately, which is to say just the whole preserving of the environment/stop cutting down trees/stop polluting(air, oceans, all that great stuff)/which all ties into my obsession with animal rights/just taking care of the environment! It's literally something I really, really believe in. I'm trying to stop using shampoo/conditioner/acne creams/all that crap that ends up going down the drain and into our oceans! It's a small thing, but I could seriously just put some mayo/lemon/olive oil/avocado/vinegar in my hair and get an even better shampoo. Of course, I'd have to figure out a way to get rid of the food smell, so I'd probably buy some organic, eco-friendly conditioner and stuff. I've also been super obsessed with really natural looks. Minimal makeup, earthy clothing vibes, natural hair (hence no straightening or curling) and wearing my awesome vest that says SAVE THE ANIMALS on the back! made it mahself cuz im the shit.
I guess overall I'm just trying to reduce my output of toxic waste. Which sounds like I'm talking about my poop, but no worries, I'm not, because poop can actually be a REALLY good fertilizer (har har.... failed attempt at being funny.)
Anyway, yeah. I think a lot of times, us humans, being annoying, put ourselves and our needs, no matter how trivial or materialistic, before that of the environment/nature/animals. I swear on my LIFE, that at least one product in your shower tests on animals, meaning that your Pantene shampoo that you love so dearly because it just makes your hair look fucking AWESOME (it doesn't. The food I listed above could do even better. Suck dat) tested that shampoo on animals, meaning when it was yet to be safe, they'd put it on animals, and in animals eyes. This could cause the animals to experience painful blistering and burns, and BLINDNESS. I know it's hard, and we all slip up a shitload and buy those animal tested products, but fear not! For I found a list of products that tests on animals! It doesn't list all the products, but it lists a lot! So hopefully my persuasive, inspiring typing skills will have encouraged you enough to carry this list around with you when you go buy important stuff like nail polish and eye shadow and shaving cream so that you don't support those annoying fucking companies that torture animals to make money! Because THERE ARE ALTERNATIVES. Like synthetic skins and stuff that doesn't hurt anyone, but still produces safe products! List To Stop Buying Shit That Harms And Hurts And Tortures Animals So We Can Have "Pretty" Hair And Smell Like Bubble Bath (To Smell Like Bubble Bath Try Taking a Bath.) Unfortunately this list is very long, which makes me sad. Feel free to call all these companies and give 'em a piece of your minds! Hence, anger!
*By the way, if you have a pet, don't feed them IAMs pet food. IAMs tests on animals.
Here is the speech I wrote and read in front of half the school+parents and faculty. It was really great spreading the word about fur farms. I felt empowered.
Sorry it's kinda blurry and gray. I had to photography it because last time I used my dad's scanner I temporarily broke his computer. Hopefully it's still legible!
