Hello, New Me.

Well, I know it's been a looooong time since I've posted (sorry!) and I've been pretty busy.

Anyway, I'm reading this book called Growing Taller Secrets--It's one of those little online books and despite not knowing if it'll work or not, I'm definitely going to give it a shot.

Well, I know it's basically stretching excercises and stuff, but what the heck? I don't have anything to lose.....

On top of the stretching excercises, I'm eating healthier (haha, I went to the drugstore, and I got some vitaminwater, Hershey's Special Dark, & Kashi GoLean Chewy Cookies-n-Cream Protein/Fiber Bar...what? Those were the "healthiest"-looking things I saw!), doing more Yoga, and I'm going to try to get more sleep.

For those of you who don't know, I'm 14 and 5'0. Not very tall, and according to my doctor, I'm only going to grow 2 more inches. Normally, I would ignore this, but I'm taking this under deep considersation because my parents aren't very tall, either, and they & my older sister were taller than me at my age.

Ugh. Well, I do get teased A LOT for my height but that's not the reason I'm doing it. I feel this is a great way to become more active and if I do happen to get taller, why not?

I guess it's part of my whole summer makeover. No, not frilly little dresses and makeup, but a new wardrobe and a few new hairstyles. My self-consiciousness finally kicked in and I decided to "revamp my look", so here I am.

Sooo....I think I better go do some yoga......Adios.


Your's Truly,

Calm Rainy Day

Serenity. Tranquility. SILENCE!!!! It's just so beautiful!

While dreading cleaning my half-organized-maggot infested room, I thought I'd just slack off and blog a little. But, since I have no clue what to blog about, I'm gonna do this thing a friend of mine emailed me.

But before I do that, let me explain the whole maggot thing: Yesterday, I was taking a nap when I awoke to this creepy-crawly freaking-looking worm thing on my hand. I'm guessing it was a maggot, since my room is a little bit of a mess right now. Anyway, I'm taking precaution and cleaning the heck out of my room, since I'm deathly afraid of bugs. **To All those people I'm sending stuff too, DON'T worry, lol, I keep my craft stuff in a whole different room on the other side of my house and my room is the absolutely only room with the bug problem. And my room is always shut off from the rest of the house** Although I only saw one, it's war!!! lol, my dad still thinks it was lint, but I'm so paranoid I won't even sleep in my room.

Ok, here goes:

Just a normal summer day

Yup.....just a normal summer day, nothing of interest here.. eating burnt pizza, yelling at my little sister to "Put that down now!!" and "Stop before you get hurt!".

Lol, ok, so, I'm not a very good liar. A lot is going on right now. I'm in another swap, I'm probably receiving my package tommorrow, and I'm trying to pursue my acting. I'm really excited, and I just can't hide it! Seriously, I'm about to lose control--and I think I like it!!

Ok, enough with the Pointer's Sister flashback.

Well, my partner sent out a few days ago and I am EXTREMELY excited! lol, today, I actually sat outside and waited for her to come. But still, no package. Alas, I think it's going to come tommorrow. Eeeeek I just hate surprises!! Lol, I need to know!!

Oh yeah, and I've joined another swap!! Which I hope, will go smashingly well.
My personal swap is going along great, although a shipment I need to finish one of my crafts hasn't come in yet sooo....yeah. I'm probably going to be finishing up my other craft this weeknd at my sister's Graduation Open House.
lol, speaking of which my big sis has finally graduated and we're sending her off with a big bash. I'm so proud of her!

And as for my acting "career", I found a great role! It's pretty big, but I'd like to keep it on the hush for privacy and other reasons. I can tell you that I was going to audition for an acting school but I decided not to because it's the same day as my sister's Open House!!! yikes! Anyways, I have to learn how to dance....Well, not "dance" but how to follow choreography. I know how to dance but following choreography always leaves me stumped. Well, I'll keep you updated with my career but that's not mainly what my blog is about....

umm..so, yeah, that's it for now! lol, I feel like I'm forgetting something but I'll be sure to spill about it--once I remember!!

♪School's Out For The Summer!♪

Yes, yes, you've heard right! School is officially out, and it's time for the serious blog-change that I promised. I know the new look isn't snazzy--YET, but I'm hoping to improve that as soon as I get Photoshop...
Anyway, next, are is the contests that I also promised. I'm hoping to get more readers who comment and I'd love to share all my craftyness. xD

Also, I've joined a few Craft-Alongs...one, most importantly, a 50 Projects In A Year-Along. I know the year is half-over, but I thought it would would cool to post all of my crafts varying from holiday gifts to special little things for me here on the ole' blog frontier.

Although the rainy/hot weather has been PERFECT for crafting, I haven't been able to do much because of my busy schedule I'm definitely going to be starting once again for a personal swap I'm in.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. I have a new obsession.....can you guess? Ok, so you probably won't be able to, but it's trying out famous "copycat" recipes that taste like the real deal!! But unlike other copycats, these ones actually taste like the real deal. Go to http://www.TopSecretRecipes.com ....I tell ya, that Todd Wilbur is a genius!

Your's Truly,

Miss Divanistic

*PS- You're probably wondering why it says "Sweet Paradise" instead of "Divanistic".... wellll, I decided to change that (and possibly the entire URL) but don't worry, you will ALWAYS get a "Your's Truly" from Miss Divanistic!!!*

Strange Conversations

lol, soo, I thought I'd share some of the weird converstaions I've had this week:

Me talking to my friend:
Me: Hey, you know what?

My friend: What?

Me: I'm getting married.

My friend: What are you talking about? You're 14.

Me: I know but he's HOTT.

My friend: Oh, you mean like how said you were going to marry Taylor Lautner?

Me: Yeah, but I'm still going to marry him. But he's going to go to Iraq & doesn't have time for me, so I'm divorcing him.

My friend: Wait, what?

Me: First, I'm going to get married to Taylor. He wants to focus on settling down quickly & becoming a doctor/being in the army, so I divorce him. But our daughter comes to lives with me & Tahj.

My friend: Who's Tahj?

Me: Tahj Mowry. My second husband. He cheated on me, so things didn't work out.

My friend: So.....what are we talking about?

Me: I'm getting married. duh.

My friend: But you're divorced....twice.

Me: No, you didn't let me finish. After I leave Tahj, I'm going to get married to......

My friend: To who??

Me: umm....I forgot his name...

My friend: You forgot your husband's name?

Me: I guess. But it doesn't matter..he really likes me.

My friend: But it's your husband!

Me: Husband?! What are you talking about I'm 14!! I'm too young to be married.

*And this went on for a while....lol*

My conversation with my sister:
Kaiya (my sister): YAHHHHHHHHH!! I'm a superhero! *starts punching me*
Me: Ouch! What are you doing? Am I a supervillian or something??
Kaiya: yup. *continues to hit me*
Me: *glances at the tv. hmm, the news is on....* HEY! SUPERHERO GIRL!! There's a fire on Main Street!!! Go go go!!! Blue Skidooed into the tele!!! You can too!! Go go go!!
Kaiya: YAHHH! *runs to the tv while I run away to my rooom
*1 hour later.....*
Me: Hey Supergirl, what's up?
Kaiya: I'm not supergirl anymore.
Me: Oh. Who are you then?
Kaiya: I'm a boy dancer.
Me: Wait what?!
Kaiya: A boy dancer.
Me: umm, ok....what's that??
*And this went on and on until she decided to be both a superhero & a boy dancer...whatever that is.*I know this sounds weird, but these are the kind of conversations that grace my everyday life. Oh god, I need to hang out with other people!!! Lol j/k...*

Spring Air In My Hair

Haha, you're probably thinking "wtf is this girl talking about 'Spring Air In My Hair?!?'"
Well, it was sorta an inside joke w/ my mom this morning....

Anywhoo, my swap partner received her package a few days ago & I'm DYING to see mine!! I don't know if she sent out already (Sendouts May 22) but I hope I get it because I' m sure I'll fall in love with anything!

AUGH!!! well, I thought I'd just give ya a quick update.....Gotta go, my dog jumped into my room now I'm gonna go walk him before he destroys anything!

Ahh, fresh Spring Air...Taking a breather

Well, life's good. With my swap finishing up & my package sent out, I can't wait to do another few swaps!
Since the year is finally sizzling up to exam time and summe break coming, I've decided to make a few changes to the blog.

First of all, I'm hoping to get a new look for the blog (and readers who actually comment! lol, j/k ♥ ya guys!) and focus it on crafting a little bit more (although there might be a sob story here & there...haha). I also want to add more tutes (tutorials) and pics of my crafty life, amazing places I go, and the not so amazing...contests & much more, of course!

Although these plans sound pretty cool it's going to take a while to transition into the new things coming with exams coming up. Sooo, I might not be posting a lot but I will check in every week or every other week to let you know I'm still alive.

Have a great summer & a terrific day!!

Yours Truly,
Miss Divanistic
