Loving these songs lately...
Sweater Weather - The Neighborhood
I've been playing this one on repeat ever since I discovered it a little while ago. It really just make you want to block everything out but the music, which is such the best.
Best For Last - ADELE
This is my absolute favorite Adele song, as it is really catchy and has a bit happier mood to it than most of the others.
Arms - Christina Perri
I recently sang this song as a trio with some of my friends for a cabaret, its simple but beautiful and sounds really amazing with harmonies...
Thats all for now

Hair Care
People who have straight want curly, and those with curly want straight. I have very thick dirty blonde curly hair. When I was little, I always wished for it to be straight so that it would not be such a pain to deal with. Now, I actually realize how lucky I am to have thick healthy hair, even if it means having frizz issues, and not being able to wear it down all the time. My hair is layered a bit to make it seem less thick, and also a tiny bit shorter it the front but I still do have frizz problems. I really enjoy Body Shop hair products because of the high quality, but especially because they are not tested on animals and most of the bottles are made from recycled plastic. These are the products I use.
Body Shop Banana Shampoo and Conditioner (also I alternate and use Ginger Shampoo sometimes)
This shampoo and conditioner leave my hair super soft and manageable. They are really good for dry or damaged hair. When I started using this I was a bit skeptical because I thought the banana scent would be overwhelming, but it actually is not at all. It smells sweet and fruity but is not as strong as the actual fruit would be. I do not shampoo my hair every time I bathe, it washes away the natural oils in your hair and leaves it dry and frizzy. I really love this shampoo and conditioner because it smells amazing and makes it really easy to brush. (Image Source)
Body Shop Grapeseed Glossing Serum
I use this in wet hair to detangle it and make it easier to brush. It leaves your hair super shiny and smells amazing. (Image Source)
Body Shop Brazil Nut Define & No-Frizz Conditioning Cream
This is really good on dry hair for frizz control and keeping hair in place. This product also smells so good, and makes you want to use up the whole bottle right away. (Image Source)
Body Shop Cottonseed Curl Boost
This adds a bit more curl and defines the existing curls, making them more bouncy and shiny. (Image Source)

More Music
This week was really long, and somewhat stressful for me. I had an audition for orchestra, which didn't go as well as I had hoped, and lots of schoolwork because exams are soon. I spent a lot of time listening to music to try to get rid of stress. Here are my favorites from this week. Enjoy.
Firefly - Ed Sheeran
Cosmic Love - Florence + The Machine
Can't Hold Us - MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS

my music
To say I love music is an understatement.
I breathe music, I don't know how I could even exist without it. The songs that really stick with me are the ones that can alter your feelings, like pump up music when you're nervous before a race, or the music that makes you feel like you're in a music video or movie when you walk down the street. Here are some of my favorites from this week:
This is my first post.
I don't really know how to start or how to express my feeling about starting blogging. But I guess the best thing I can do is to explain why i'm doing this.
I need something new. Something to break up my monotonous everyday routine. I'm having a hard time enjoying thing like school and my extracurricular activities because the seem so regular and not very exciting. I just want some way to share my experiences and tips so that I can get them out of my head and enjoy life more. I guess you could say i'm a big dreamer. I want to do something to help people and leave my mark.
