The Art of Making Friends

It's so quiet here. I am hoping if there is anyone out there they will respond...
Anywho. Todays topic is making friends, so if you are starting a new school with no one you know. It reals sort of lonely, doesn't it? I mean I get trying to learn but personally it can be such a downer not having anyone there.
In these situations it is so important to stay true to YOURSELF, I mean be you do not conform! Just because everyone is doing it does not mean you should be doing it too! Now in high school this is alot more difficult then in college because you ussually do not know have a true identity of who you are. This is super important to stay true to yourself and be your own person, this is the true way to make lasting friends.
So I know you have heard the whole 'don't conform' buisness and it can be annoying to hear all the time, but it is just so true that's why it is so over used.
So after you staytrue to yourself, it is now time to get out of your comfort zone and make small talk. Some people may reach out to you and others may be just as shy. Now you will not suddenally become miss/mr popularity after all some people are not as open to new friends and that's alright it is not because of you, it has to do with them. Just stay kind and you may break them, never be nasty at times it can be so tempting however we already live in a world of destruction and war why bring us human kinds down even more? Just kill them with kindness.
Once you make friends, it is important to let this friendship prospure by getting to know eachother. Things like this take time, and it varies for everyone. For example I have made two friends so far one who I hang out with alot and the other I talk to in class. The latter seems not to be ready yet to let all her walls down and the first seems ready to move forward in our friendship.
At some point keeping friends will not be a difficult task, it does get easier.
Until next time,

Butting Heads

You know it is so easy to going from super happy to those kill me now moments. I am sitting here in the libarary finally realizing that my homework I wanted printed is just not going to work.
It's the whole thing Bella mentions in Eclipse the two magnets that just will not go together, though it could be she put south against south or north against north. Still, both my laptop and the printer just will not get along.
Silly right? And yes I was once a twi-hard no flames at me ok? I am my own person, it was one of the guilty pleasures I had. After all we all have been captured by something, blinded by it's brightness to blind to see the truth. And yes this is where my poetic self comes out, that is for my other blog if you go for that stuff.
So enough ranting, sorry on my part.
So I recently opened this blog; actually more like an hour or two ago.
So, here I am wondering what lucky tidbits will you get from me today? My wonderful dating advice which may be amiture in my sister's eyes. My taste in clothes, well I am a fashion major. My friendship tips...well lets say it is a work in progress.
Just let me know what you want to know and I will try my best.
For now I will leave you with this; at points in our lives we seem to struggle with stress, we tend to pile too much on. At these moments take a step back and re-think everything. Sometimes putting it all done on a list is helpful, do the stuff you HAVE to do; that does not mean playing Minecraft or hanging with friends (unless you feel friendship is on the line) this is the time to do that assignment that you put to the side and it's due date is looming closer. Starting from the beggining can be hard and aggrivating, but with every step you take it feels like a load is taken off your shoulders. Trust me on this one, I went from the procrastinating princess to average brain, last part may be an exageration but stay with me.
One last thing (for real this time!) after you have completed your HAVES do a want.

Freshmen!

I have been awol for a while, forgive me with all the newness of collage it can take your breath away.

I have learned a lot in the past weeks; firstly joggling everything is difficult! Seriously! When did hanging friends seem like such a chore, no offense to them who I love to pieces, but since school I have had no true 'me-time' which leaves me in a sort of a mess.

Not that I necessarily need to have 'me-time' all the time, however it chills me out. It relaxes me. (so here's a question you guys, whoever you are; what relaxes you? Do you need your own 'me-time'? or do you need to be surrounded by people?)

My quick fix for stressful times like this is:

* Dancing like crazy (where no one can see you of course :))

* Curling up with a good book, I can be such a book worm sometime

* Watching shows that I never want people to know I watch (but hey if you have the same guilty pleasure let me know, then I will tell you mine!)

Those are my top three, I will let you guys in later on more of my chill tips!

So this blog first started as a vlog on youtube under the username TheFashionqueen93, however I just have no time to record and post videos and at the moment I sound like a frog, I have a horrible cold. So I will save you from the disaster that is me at the moment.

Perhaps in the near future I can record some new videos and promote this blog.

Until next time
