My First Day

Hey lovelies! So here I am, alive (yay), after a long first day of freshman year. My main goal for today was to survive, so I can check that off my list and wipe my brow (not that I actually am list checking or brow wiping). So, what should I tell you guys about. Hmm. Well, first, I only got lost once. That is pretty cool, being a "confused, nervous freshman" (as one of my teacher put it. Lunch was okay. I sat with my friend and some sophomores. My teachers were all super nice and friendly (Though it may just be what I call first day faking). I only saw my ex twice, but we have no classes together. The first day wasn't as bad as I thought. It almost wasn't worth all that freaking out, ya know?  The moral of the story is... (Drumroll please!) Don't freak out. I promise you, it is so much easier than you are imagining (And trust me, I got all those wacky freak out worthy scenario in my head too). So just breath girl. You got this :)

With tons of love,
Em <3

Ps. I just wanted to let you guys know, I checked "Survive the first day of high school", off my bucket list (which is in a previous post, if you were wondering) Thats it. I luv ya!!!

My Life Story :)

Hi beautifuls! So today, I am making a post about my life (so far) So lets get right into it!

I was born in September of 2000. I have a mom and a dad, plus an older brother. He is older than me by 18 months. I lived, and live in a small town in the middle of nowhere.

As a baby, I was (according to my parents) a good child. I slept through the night, which was really appreciated  because my brother didn't sleep. Like at all. He refused to sleep. Up until preschool, my brother was my best friend. We did everything together, and he always looked out for me (love him!).
In preschool and kindergarten, I was wicked shy. I had one best friend that I did everything with, and that was it.

In elementary school, I struggled a bit. I had attention problems, because the work they gave me was easy and boring. I became close friends with my neighbor in second grade, because we were in the same class, and also another girl who is still my best friend today. In fourth grade, I found a group of three friends. We were super tight, and like a mini clique. Things started to go bad when one of those girls started majorly bullying me. I got wicked insecure, and just general unhappy. In fifth grade, I tried to distance myself from her, but she still made fun of me. I made shaky friendships with the girls in my class, but I had no best friend. Also, in fifth grade I had my "first boyfriend". He asked me out in math and I said yes at recess. We dated for the whole recess period (15 minutes), then I broke up with him.

The summer before middle school, I had anxiety. I lost a ton of weight, and worried all the time. I felt sick to my stomach constantly, and had no appetite.  In sixth grade, the girl from fourth grade still bullied me. I had no self esteem, and my "friends" made fun of me behind my back. Also, this was the year my great-grandfather died. I had a really hard time with that. I focused really hard on my schoolwork, because it distracted me from everything. This is also the year I started track.  I instantly fell in love with running, and it was my escape. The summer after sixth grade, my British cousins came to stay with us. It was the first time we had ever met them, and a ton of fun.

Seventh grade is the year things really took a turn for the better. I met my sisters (well I already knew and was besties with one of them) during the first week of school. We instantly clicked, and we loved each other like true sisters. My teachers were amazing, and again I did track for my school. I had a major crush on this wicked short kid (don't know why I had to mention that he was short), and he was nice, but he didn't like me. At this point, no guys were ever interested in me. In seventh grade, I had my sisters, and also a wide circle of loving, true friends. I finally felt accepted. Also, this year I got all A's :) The summer after seventh grade, me and my family went to London. This was one of my favorite years.

Eighth grade was also an awesome year. I was in the same classes with my sisters, so i got to see them all the time. I became more happy, friendly, bubbly, and outgoing, because I was just comfortable with who I was finally. The girl from fourth grade had decided to leave me alone. I made tons of new friends that were in my classes. I had the best teachers. They loved me (except for one, but whatevs) I had crushes on various hot, popular guys, but there was a guy who was a bit different. My sister liked him, and we started chatting on Skype, and we instantly had a friendship. I could be crazy and silly with him, just like with my sisters. Before him, I had never felt that comfortable with a guy. We both liked each other, but never told each other. I felt super guilty for  liking him, because my sister was crazy about him. I never told anyone that I liked him, because i felt so guilty. Eventually, he asked me out. I said no, because I couldn't do that to my sister.  We had a fall out for a while. In eighth grade, my school art teacher convinced me to enter a contest. I entered a drawing, and I won. My parents and friends were so supportive and amazing, and I am so thankful for that. One of my sisters came with me to the awards show. I became known by my classmates for my art, and I even won the superlative "Best Artist" in the yearbook. I never imagined that I would get this far. I also was asked to help paint a mural in my school with a few other girls, and we became amazing friends. The previously mentioned guy asked me to semi, and he was my first boyfriend (its a long story, in the previous post if you're interested)

The summer after eighth grade, I had my first kiss, and my first heartbreak. He broke up with me, and it really hit me hard. I have since moved on, and spent a lot of time this summer with my best friends. They were the only therapy I need, and I am constantly laughing with them. I have been on a few adventure this summer, and its almost over. High school starts in a couple day, but I haven't had anxiety. I am mostly looking forward to the next part in my life :)

So this is my life, from start to now. The end had more details, because I remember more of what happened. Whats your life story? If you want, comment below or email me at heyitsmissem@gmail.com. Also, did you like this post? Should I do more like this? Anyways, I love you to the moon. And back :)

With tons of love,
Emma <3

#tbf: A Memory

Hello darlings! So yesterday, I totally meant to do a #tbt post, but things got crazy. So, I''m changing it and making it throw back Friday. Yay! So, today I'm going to think one of my favorite memories, and share it with you guys. Hmmmm.....

Okay, I got one. The second to last day of school. It was the day of graduation and our semi formal dance. I had my graduation in the morning at the auditorium, and I got my eighth grade diploma, plus an award for academic excellence. Then, my team (They split the grade into four teams) went outside. I took a bunch of pictures with my best friends and parents, talked to my teachers, and messed around with my galfriends. We were all so happy, and it was awesome. Then, all the parents left, and my team went inside.

We had what they call a team meeting, which is when the team (keep in mind, this is about ninety kids) squeeze into one classroom, and the teachers talk/give out awards and stuff. The room was packed, and there were people sitting on the counters and on desks. I sat with my group of friends (a mix of guys and girl) on the counters. I was sitting with two of my best friends on either side, but one of the switched so I was sitting next to my semi formal date (we were going as friends at the time, but I secretly liked him) My friends all knew I liked him, and they were like shoving me into him. He leaned close, because the room was wicked loud, and said "Oh, yeah, I really like you". I was so crazy happy, but I'm wicked like shy and awkward so I didn't tell him I liked him too (Yet. Trust me, I fix this). I sort of snuggled closer to him though, and the teacher started talking, saying how much they would miss us ect. They started giving out the awards, and after a couple, my math teacher was giving out the award for best effort in Algebra. She started saying how this student always really tried, and how she had noticed. I thought that the award was going to this other girl in my algebra class, so I was wicked surprised when it was me. My friends congratulated  me, and I walked up (admittedly tripping over legs and chairs on the way) to get the award. They gave out a few more awards, and then it was over. Everyone started leaving the classroom, so I didn't get a chance to talk to my semi date/crush.

After that, the whole eighth grade class went outside for an ice cream party. I sat in the field, surrounded by my girls. I was telling the ones that weren't on my team the story of what happened between me and my crush at the meeting, and when I got to the part about not saying it back, the freaked out. They said he probably thought he was rejected, and that I had to go tell him.
He was with a bunch of his guy friends. It was really intimidating to go over there, but I walked up to him, and whispered in his ear, "By the way, I like you too" . Then, he said that he already knew, because on of my friends told him. I was ready to kill her, but it all worked out so I restrained.

(Wow this is getting long)

The school day was over. I went home, and I got ready for the dance. I loved my dress. It was short and sparkly and neon pink. We left for the dance, and again I took a bunch of pictures with my friends. I didn't take one with my date, because my parents didn't like him and he knew, so he avoided me. We went inside, and my date was still with his guy friends, so I said hi to him, and then went to dance with my friends. We did the Macarena, the Cotton Eye Joe, the Cha Cha Slide, and the Cupid Shuffle. They had a big screen with live videos on it, and at one point me and my friend were on it doing the Cupid Shuffle. After the dances with my friends, my date found me. We went to get water in the cafe, and just talked. He heard a slow song come on, and he asked me to dance. We went back in, and slow danced (Fun fact: The song was Stay With Me by Sam Smith. IDK why I remember that) My friend who didn't have a date was kind of third wheeling it with us, but most of the time I didn't  mind. One time though, me and my date were in the cafe, and I was drinking water again. She came in, and asked me to go dance. I told her that I was drinking my water, and that I'd come when I was done, and she snapped "Well hurry up" and dumped my cup of water down the front of my dress.  Yeah. Fun. My date was about to kick her a**, but I told her to go away. Uhmm, what else happened. Oh, my friend who moved away flew up for the dance, so it was great to see her again. I had so much fun dancing stupidly with my galfriends (because I cant dance. At all. So I just have fun) After the dance was over, I had a new boyfriend, and a great memory with my best friends.

It was so amazing to have something to remember, and It was just a perfect day. I have since been broken up with by aforementioned boy, and I really hate his guts now, but its still a good memory. I was perfectly happy, and I love thinking back to this day when I'm having a not so good day. So yeah, this is one of my favorite memories. What's yours? Comment below or email me at heyitsmissem@gmail.com. Oh, and sorry this is such a long post. Love ya!

Freaking Out

Hi guys! So, as you may already know, I am going to high school in a few days (Five, to be exact) I don't know why, but today I just really started being stressed and having anxiety. I was going crazy, so you know how I dealt? I went for a run. Usually in the summer, my bodies like, bleh exercise. But today I ran for 3 miles. My worries about being a freshman drowned out my body's complaints. Also, by the time I was done I felt totally like chill. It was awesome.

So, if your stressing out about something, try exercise. It totally worked for me. What do you guys do to calm down when your stressed? I'd love to know! Comment below or email me at heyitsmissem@gmail.com. Oh, and I wuv you! ^-^

With tons of love,

Secrets (shhh)

Hi cuties! So you know what they say, secrets secrets are no fun unless you share with everyone (That was, like, the ultimate comeback in elementary school. Ah, memories). Because I don't know any of you in real life, and you have no idea who I am in real life, I thought I would share some secrets. Everyone loves secrets.

What to start with. Hm. Okay, I got one. Well, sort of two in one. The first part is that I loved my ex boyfriend. Yeah, I could never say it to him, and obviously he didn't feel the same. Back when weren't    dating (just friends who liked each other, but never told each other, just sort of always knew. Does that make sense? Probably not), we had, like, this weird connection. We could talk about everything, and he could always make me laugh. He was so sweet, and we actually talked, like good conversation. We had a ton in common, and a super great friendship. It makes sense that I would fall in love with him. To quote the most wonderous book ever "I fell in love with him the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once." We then had a months long fall out, and then by the time we dated it was never the same. The second part of this secret (By the way, not even my sisters know either part of this secret. You guys should feel special) is that I miss him. Really, really miss him wicked bad. I miss waking up to the kiss emojis, and having my first kiss, and holding hands, and being called beautiful. I miss being wanted. I miss talking to him. Sometimes, something will happen to me that I know he'd understand, or that I really want to tell him, but we aren't even talking anymore. The really sad part: he doesn't feel the same way at all. He doesn't care. He broke up with me for another girl, and didn't even have the guts to tell me that was why. He doesn't deserve to be missed; he deserves to be hated. But I cant. I just cant't

My second secret: I am not half as happy as I seem at school. I have gotten very good at faking smiles. I don't have any huge, major life problems, but even when something is bothering me I don't show it. I can't be sad or upset. My sisters, my friends, need my happiness. They have so much unhappiness, and I am their rock. I can't be upset too, I have to be there for them. My two biggest lies are "I'm okay", and "Its fine". Its hard to explain, but I did the best job I could.

Okay. Two down, one to go. Yay! My last secret is I struggle with perfection. I aim for perfect, and when I don't get there, I hate myself. The two options in my brain are Perfect or Failure. It makes life really hard sometimes, and I have been working on getting rid of being a perfectionist. It is better than it was in the past, but it is still there. Also, a side secret on this one is that I feel like I'm never good enough. Not for my parents, not for my friends, not for boys, and not for me. Yeah. Fun.

See? That was fun. Very... Therapeutic almost. Thanks for being my therapist guys. By the way, I love you all :) Thank you for reading! If you're new here, or if you've been here, thank you so much! It means a ton. Comment questions about me down below for my question post, or email them to me at heyitsmissem@gmail.com. You can also email me for  advice about ANYTHING. Seriously, I give great advice, plus I love to talk. So blow up my inbox pretty please ^-^

My Backpack Essentials

Hello darlings! Today, I thought I'd share with you the must haves I have in my backpack. Enjoy babes!

Homework Folder- Well, yeah. Kinda obvious. I have a durable plastic neon pink one (I love pink!)
Agenda- I am seriously so forgetful. I would probably forget half my homework if I didn't use this every day. Not even kidding...
Pencil Case- Again, kind of obvious
EOS Lip Balm- I hate when my lips get chapped, and start hurting, so I carry one of these everywhere. Its the best lip balm I've used. Right now, I have the summer fruit one. Yummy :)
Travel Sized Moisturizer- No scent (my school is scent free), but its super helpful when you notice you have dry hands.
Elephant Beanie Baby- Now, this one has a story. Last year, my friends and me passed him around. The game was that you had to pass him on without the passee noticing the passer. I got him on the last day of school, so he has been chilling the summer with me. Once school starts, he will be passes on (By the way, his name is Peanuts)
Phone- Even though my phone is a dinosaur, I cant live without it. It is attached to my hand like 24/7.
iPod with Earbuds- I would go crazy without music, and I hate the days I forget my earbuds. I am literally depressed for the rest of the day. Not good.
Lunch- I love food, and I get hangry without it. Unless you want to see me, like, attack someone, I should probably have lunch.
Hair Brush- My hair has a tendency to get a bit, uhm, creative by lunch time, so this helps control it.
Bobby Pins- Again, helps deal with the creative hair.

Yep, thats about it :)

With tons of love,
Emma <3

My Unbiological Sisters

Hello sweeties. As a shy seventh grader, I was lucky to find the best group of friends ever. There are four of us, and we call ourselves the sisters (Yeah, we even have official shirts and everything. We're cool. Just kidding, we're awesomely uncool). My sisters each have taught me a different lesson, and have helped me grow in so many ways (Woah, this is starting to sound like my English paper a bit) I'm gonna share with you the wise lessons I have learned from my friends.

Friend #1:
She is the person I can relate to most out of the sisters. While the other two totally understand each other, we totally understand each other. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever met, and also the friendliest. She is the only person (outside family) that has ever seen me cry. She is always there for me, and knows exactly what to say. The main lesson this girl has taught me though, is optimism. Even if her world is coming crashing down around her feet, she always has a smile, and hope for tomorrow. She understands that hope isn't a weakness; its what keeps us going. Smart girl, she is.

Friend #2
She is the friend I have had since second grade. Even though we didn't see each other as much last year, we stayed close as ever. She is the one that has lived my past with me. She has struggled a lot in the past. She has anxiety attacks, and has self harmed quite a bit. With this comes the main lesson she has taught me: Strength. She has been strong enough to keep living, even with the things she deals with. She has stopped cutting, even though I know its hard for her. She is one of the strongest girl I have ever known.

Friend #3
Even though we may not have the same interests, she always knows what I'm thinking before I do. She gives the best advice, even if its not what you want to hear. She follows her hobbies and interests, even if its not considered "cool", and proudly accepts them. She can always make the group laugh, A classic comedian. She has no idea how amazing a person she is, even though we have all told her multiple time. The main lesson I have learned from her is how to be yourself. She has realized that life is a lot more fun being who you want, not who everyone else wants you to be. She is brave.

My sisters are some pretty amazing gals, huh? :)

With tons of love,
Emma :)


Back To School Shopping

Hiya lovelies. This post is about clothes (I. Love. Clothes), but more specifically my back to school shopping.
 This year, I was given a budget of 200 dollars, not including school suppiles, a backpack, shoes. So with my reluctant attidude (I love shopping, but its hard to find stuff that fits, and i get aggraved fast. Very fast.), I headed to the stores. First stop: Kohls. Great for the basics, I got new camis (Goodbye old fallen apart ones, finally), a pair of navy Keds (Omg, I LOVE THESE), nike running shoes for gym (By the way, I didn't even sign up for gym. I signed up for art. Yay me :/ ), and black leggings. Next, we headed for the outlets. After trying on fifteen pairs of jeans from Aero (No, I'm not exaggerating. For all society idolizes tall skinny people, they don't make clothes for them), I ended up with two pair to add to my collection.  I also got an awesome cream open knit cardigan. At Old Navy, I found a wicked cute maroon dress. Hello first day of school outfit, with a denim jacket and my Keds :) After a tiring day shopping, I have most of the stuff I need. I still need new shirts, which are easy to find at TJ Maxx and Marshalls. I'll get accessories  (meaning scarves) when I go to the mall with my besties this weekend.
In the end, I got some amazing deals, and most of my clothes. A productive day? Check.


With tons of love
Emma :)

Freshman!

Hi chickadees! So, as y'all (I'm not southern; I just love to say y'all. Y'all") may know from the first post, I am part of the new freshman class. Yay! Even though I'm wicked excited, I gotta say, I'm totally nervous. New teachers, new building, and, uhm, no friends in my classes. Now, I love talking to new people more than most people, but still. Its awkward. I am holding on to that one period (Biology) that I know I have with an eighth grade friend. Phew. The other worry: what if I have classes with my ex? Guess I'll just have to wait and see. Even if I do, I'm sure we'll have a fun year completely ignoring each other. I have a goal for freshman year: become the best me ever, and have the best year ever. And I'm not talking just grades-wise. I'm gonna try out for the track team (Totally scary as a freshman), and try to enter some art contests. I'm going to become more outgoing. Also, less shy and akwo around guys (A girl can dream).  Hey, I have nothing to worry about. I think.

Skinny Haters

Hello darlings! The topic of this post is skinny haters, some truely trying to hurt me, and some that thought that was a okay comment to make (Newsflash: It wasn't)
My whole life I have been tall and lean. I eat a ton, and can eat whatever I want. I get it from my Dad, and most of the time I'm okay with it. I used to hate it, but now I've grown to love my body. With that love comes hate. Whenever some girl I barely know makes the comment "Eat a sandwich", I just laugh. I mean, gurl, I already ate a sandwich... and another, and chips, and doritos, and strawberries, and cookies. Even though I'm laughing, it hurts a little ittle bit. Why can't people just accept all body types? I don't get it :(
The comment that really hurt though was my best friends brother. I was talking about food with her mother, when her brother chimes in "She thinks you're anorexic". Seriously. I eat a TON. I am like a black hole of food consumption. I have never had a eating disorder in my life, and I am still at a healthy weight for my height and age (Doc says) My best friend quickly told him to shut up, and that that was as far from the truth as you could get, but guess what? It hurt.
Even though there are gonna be haters, I still love me. I'm perfectly imperfect, just like everyone else on this Earth. The moral of the story? Love yourself, and then it doesn't matter what people think.

With tons of love,
Emma <3

Ps. Comment! I love to talk :)

Being Single :)

Hello Loves :) So after my first post, I thought "Wow, this is fun! Lets do another!" Plus, I can't sleep.  But anyways, here I am. Now, as you can probably tell from the title, this post is about being single.(If you guessed that was the topic already, you're such a smarty)
Having the single status again can be awesome, but, quite honestly, it can also be down right depressing. While all my friends have loving boyfriends, I have a stupid cheating ex. Group  get-togethers are awkward when their boyfriends are invited (I'll just go sit alone in a corner with my Ben & Jerry's) As much as I complain about it though, being single has some perks. For example, that drool worthy guy at the beach. Yeah, my friends can drool, but because I was actually single (and brave for, like, the first time in my life), I could actually flirt with him. No guilt attached. Also, even though being called beautiful, amazing and pretty by a guy totally rocks, I think its important for me to work on feeling that way myself, without any guy necessary (I know, girl power much?) I'm not saying if a new guy comes knocking, I'm gonna send him away. But for right now? I think I can handle being a single pringle.

With tons of love,
Emma :)


My First Post!

Hi everyone! If you're reading this, well thank you. I'm flattered ^-^. This blog is gonna be about my Teenage Experience (jazz hands!). I'm just your average teenager girl. Because this is my first post (Uhm, YAY!), I'll tell you a bit about myself. Where do I start... I'm loud, bubbly, outgoing, and happy, like, almost all the time. I have a loving family, and the most amazing group of unbiological sisters a gal could dream of. I  was very recently dumped, but I'm all good now (God, he was an idiot. Live and learn, right?). I am obsessed with drawing, and piano. I love all music in general. 98 percent of the time, I am listening to music (Thats just an estimate. Or a guess. Ooh, a guesstimate!) I am starting freshman year in about a week! Goooo freshman! I am one of those kids who loves school, but, man, i HATE waking up early. Five o'clock is just crazy. No one should be up at that early hour. I'm gonna miss summer, and more importantly sleeping till its early afternoon. But i get sidetracked (I do that a lot in case you haven't noticed). Oh, I am a huge girly girl. Like, Starbucks and dresses and puppies all the way bro. That pretty much me in a quick nutshell. If you have any question, or want to know anything, comment below (As long as its not like creepy weirdo/stalker type stuff) Also, comment a bit about yourself. I'd love to know about you guys :)
