My life just got confusing

     So as most of you know I started this blog to tell about my experiences transitioning from high school to college. Well what some of you may not know is that I am also in cosmetology school and right around the time I graduate high school I will get my cosmetology license. So the problem that has come to my attention recently is that I have no idea if I am actually going to end up going to college.

     The reason that this came up was because the other day I was doing my friend Renee's hair and I did a three-process hair service in three hours. I stripped, colored, and highlighted it. Most people cant do it that fast. And her hair actually ended up looking really good in my opinion. I did the full head of highlights in 45 minutes. The fastest girl I know that does highlights takes an hour to do a full. Renee's hair is ridiculously long as well. So that mad it even more surprising. So because of that I was already thinking that maybe I should just stay home and do hair. I put it to the back of my mind though because I kind of figured that it was just a fluke I got those things done so fast. Today however showed me that maybe its not just a fluke. I did a times perm today and what normally takes girls 45 minutes to an hour to wrap only took me 33 minutes.

     So now I am stuck with what to do. Because I love doing hair and I know that I want to do it, but I also know that I need a college degree just in-case I decide that I am burnt out on hair and need to take a break. What are your guises opinions? Let me know in the comments.

Senioritis

Senioritis- noun. A crippling disease that strikes high school seniors. Symptoms include: laziness, an over-excessive wearing of track pants, old athletic shirts, sweatpants, athletic shorts, and sweatshirts. Also features a lack of studying, repeated absences, and a generally dismissive attitude. The only known cure is a phenomenon known as Graduation.

     Some people say that this disease does not exist and that it is just called laziness. I was one of those people that thought that until it struck me. It is this overwhelming urge not to want to do anything. Obviously I do because my college could tell me I cant go there anymore but sometimes I just don't even try. 

     Now that it is the second semester of my senior year I am starting to realize more and more what this all means. I am just ready to be out of high school. Like right now, I am supposed to be working on an English paper but instead I am typing up a blog post all about how I have senioritis. I mean one would think that I could use this time to actually do something I need to, but nope, I don't think I can do that.

     The one thing that has not been effected by my senioritis is cosmetology school. I still try in that and actually do what I am supposed to do. It is hard to want to do it sometimes, but it's a lot easier to do something I like than to do something I don't.

     So have you or do you have senioritis. Let me know how you got over it? Or if you are currently struggling with this disease tell me what you are trying to do to help it.

Looking back: I just hated it

     So now it is time for my magical year that I know you guys have all been waiting to hear about. My junior year was probably the one that had the most ups and downs for me. There were a lot of good things, but there were probably more bad than anything. So lets just get started.

     So junior year I started high school and I also started going to cosmetology school, which was actually pretty exciting. I didnt really like a lot of the girls there but I really dont like a lot of girls anyway. So I just brushed that off. I did make one new friend who's name is Darby. She had a lot to do with why I am not with my boyfriend, actually she has everything to do with it and I want to thank her every day for it. But anyway, so I did actually make a friend which is what made that an actually half way okay class.

     I also had problems with Bobby this year....I swear that girl sought me out every year. I dont even really remember what all went on junior year with her, except that we werent even fighting over Cooper anymore because I had already shoved him out of my life. That girl would have problems with me even if I was a stick, I am convinced of it.

     Toward the end of the year I got a job at Dairy Queen and I have now been there for almost a year. There were plenty of friends that I made there but most of them left after the end of the summer so I dont talk to them anymore.


     I know that this one was short but I blocked out a lot of the things that happened this year. I did go to prom just like most people, but I didnt have all that much fun. It might have been fun for someone that had friends but it wasnt for me. I will see you guys all when I post next.

DIY: Pallet Coasters

     Okay Okay before you all start throwing a fit I did not come up with this idea myself. I did see it on YouTube, however I figured someone might like to see the steps written out so that they didn't have to go back an listen to the video a bunch of times if they missed some steps. So with that, lets get started.

What you will need:

1.Popsicle sticks

2.Hot glue gun

3. Paint (optional)

4.Glitter (optional)

5. Modpog (optional)

6.Silver sharpie or silver paint pen

Step 1:

Count out 12 Popsicle sticks and lay them out on the table.

Step 2:

Cut the rounded ends off of the sticks. You can measure them if you would like, but I just guessed and they came out pretty close to the same size.

Step 3:

Glue them all together. The pictures show this better than I can explain.

Step 4:

Use your silver sharpie or paint pen to make dots that look like nails in your mini pallets.

Step 5:

Now you get to decorate them how you would like. I used a mixture of gold glitter and modpog on the one that is shown in this tutorial.

Step 6:

After it dries go ahead and use it! (I am showing one that I already had made because I wasnt sure how long it would take for my glue and glitter to dry.)

     So there you have it. That is how you make DIY pallet coasters. I hope you all enjoy. If you make one please let me know how it goes.

Looking Back: She returned

                Then my sophomore year in high school came along. I was excited about my classes, I knew I had a few friends that I had classes with, and I thought things with Bobby would finally go away. Oh how terribly wrong I was about things with Bobby going away. They only got worse.

                On the first day of school I was in my digital design class and I sat next to this kid…lets call him Cooper. Cooper was not what most people would find cute, but I was into guys with longer hair at the time and he fit my definition of cute. We talked a few times, and then one day he gave me his number. So I got on the bus and consulted my best friend at the time who was basically my sister. She knew who he was and had known him since they were little. She told me to go for it. So I texted him. We didn’t text for long before we got together. Our relationship was really weird, we were more like friends when we were dating. So we broke up, but after we broke up we started to act more like we were together. Like I said it was weird.

                The day that we broke up I found out that this girl Alyssa…that is her real name, I don’t have a problem saying hers because I have no idea where she ended up at….who I was friends with at the time had started to date him. Her and I stopped talking and I just kind of sulked in a corner going between two guys that I was on and off with for a total of probably three years until I found the boyfriend that I am with now. Anyway, after awhile he found out how crazy Alyssa was and they broke up, but not before he brought her to home coming and shoved her in my face. Then he got with another girl who I thought hated me, turns out she didn’t and her and I are actually pretty good friends now. At the time we didn’t talk though. Cooper continued to be all over me and act like we were together. Finally those two ended up breaking up as well, pretty weird I wont lie. So Cooper and I kept talking and trying to be friends and then Bobby came into the picture.

Bobby wanted to take Cooper from me. She would text me non-stop telling me I needed to leave him along. She would make up lies about me. She said I was a heroin addict at one point. (For the record I have never done anything like that in my life so that way was not true.) So cooper and I ended up not talking. As SOON as she got me out of his life she stopped talking to him and Cooper came running back to me. We never ended up dating again but we would hang out all the time and I would baby sit and just all kinds of stuff. Bobby found out, and she was back again. Ready to screw the day up. In the process people started to think I was even more of a b*tch than they already did because she would continue to make up lies about me. Cooper and I tried to stay friends and for his benefit I even facebook messaged Bobby to try to fix things up. Facebook messages are even places let me tell you. Anyway that obviously didn’t work out and sophomore year finally ended. I wanted so bad for things with Bobby to be done with, but I knew they wouldn’t be. What I didn’t know what that within the next year one of my friends would screw me over so much I actually ended up having to call the cops on her.

So that is my story of sophomore year. There were a few good things that I just don’t really remember. Like I had two really good friends as well as the girl that was like my sister, but those ended shortly after the end of my sophomore year for one reason or another. So I was left with no friends, no job, and no money to pay for the car that I had just gotten. What tragic, or really awesome, things happened to you your sophomore year?

Looking Back: The best time of my life..not

     When I was finishing up 8th grade I remember a teacher telling me that high school would be the greatest time of my life. I can tell you they were so far off that it wasn't even funny. I remember going to my freshman orientation and the principal telling us not to by elevator passes from the upperclassmen. I won't lie we all felt slightly insulted because we had a one story school up until my junior year. I was also scared about what the seniors would do to me, but it turns out I should have been more scared of what my own friends would do to me.

     I started the first day of my high school career with a boot on my foot from a surgery I had gotten over the summer. So the first two weeks of school started with me getting kicked out of my gym class and kids making fun of me. People that I thought were my friends were standing across the halls pointing and laughing at me. Calling me fat and ugly, oh and calling my penguin because apparently I waddled when I walked. I blame that on the boot. Two weeks later I got the boot off and I was happy let me tell you. People were still calling me names, but it was no longer because I was walking weird.

     Then not even a month later I was walking back to class from lunch and I slid on something that was on the floor. I did the splits in a pair of jeans...I am not that flexible guys...and I fell flat in the hallway in the middle of a bunch of people. Again there was pointing and laughing and no one helped me up. I mean I did get up right away but I had busted my knee open in the process, that was not very pretty.

     Most of my year went pretty okay after that. There was a lot of tripping and falling once it started to snow because I am a klutz and I fall even when there isn't anything to trip on. I remember falling flat on my face about 4 times that year. I didn't start to have real problems until I met this one girl, who from the start hated me even though I had done nothing to her. To this day she still hates my guts. For all intensive purposes of not giving her name away...I mean come on I am not that mean...we are going to just call her Bobby.

     Bobby hated me form the day she saw me. I was never friends with her either, but I did have a lot of friends who were friends with her for one reason or another. Bobby was the short blond girl who liked to call me a fat cow. When I look back at pictures of her I just shake my head because I promise you she was pretty chubby to, but that isn't the point. Anyway Bobby used her power with my friends to make a lot of people hate me and because I didn't like to take crap a lot of people thought I was a b****. I most certainly was not at that point. For the rest of the year Bobby made my life a living h*ll. I thought it would stop after that, but I was oh so wrong about that, because the next year I really gave her a reason to hate me. Or so she claims I did.

     That is my freshman year of high school in a quick view. Feel free to tell me what your freshman year of high school was like. Also if anyone else had a mortal enemy tell me about them in the comments, I would love to compare notes and see how alike our enemies are.

My first post (I dont have a better name)

       Today I was scrolling through Pinterest (yes I am slightly addicted to it....don't judge me) and I realized that since I no longer had time to make YouTube videos, that it might be fun to try doing a blog. And since I am a senior in high school I thought it would be cool to make my blog about the transition from the end of my high school career into college. I don't really know exactly what I am going to write about...probably just anything that interests me.

      I should probably explain the name of the blog to you. It is actually very intellectual and well thought out....okay so maybe it is more just a name I came up with in 5 minutes, but it does have some meaning behind it!  I got Late Night from the fact that most of the time I am up late whether for school work or just because I cant fall asleep; I got Glitter because, well, I am obsessed with glitter and do it yourself projects. So maybe it isn't the best name in the world but I really like it and maybe you guys will come to like it too.

      As I am sitting here thinking about school I continue to think about all the things that I have gone threw since I started high school. I think that will be a series that I will do on here. Do a few blog posts about how I have changed, and how my life has changed in the last four years. For now that is just an idea. Please don't try to hold me to that one.

     Well I think that for now I should probably go and pay a little more attention to my boyfriend. I'm kind of neglecting answering him while I write this because sometimes a girls just got to write.
